In the summer of 2019, FOX's "Spin The Wheel" gave us Wheel Watchers an interesting alternative to see. It didn't make it past that first handful of shows as part of another in the long list of FOX's failures. Perhaps as soon as this summer, another network will give us another ten shows to see if more big money and prizes can be won.

Basically, the format of the game involves a bunch of celebrities on a huge wheel, with the contestants situated below the main wheel where they hope that there name is selected in order to complete some challenges on the main stage, with the celebs giving them assistance. The contestant who is active at the end of the main game has a chance at bonus cash and prizes. Definitely sounds interesting for at least a single episode. I watched nearly all of Spin The Wheel, but I wasn't surprised that it never got picked up given Fox's poor track record with game shows.
