Christmas Day show
...I got home from work early, so I have time to squeeze in another Christmas episode (even if this one is past that day).
S24, EPISODE #4562: SPIRIT OF THE SEASON
Airdate: 12/26/06
Go!
SNACKING BETWEEN MEALS isn't recommended, but Wendy's made the first solve tonight.
Playing the day after Christmas:
Wendy Whitehead: Goleta, CA (orig. from Twain Harte which is near Yosemite). She went to Summerville High, got her Bachelor's and Master's at Fresno State and is now working at Dos Pueblos High School (6 years now). Also, she's a better host than Pat.
Jessica Best: Boulder, CO. Grad student at the University of Colorado studying Chemistry. Enjoys outdoors stuff
Jeff Whitmer: Surprise, AZ. Firefighter and Fire Pal at West Point Elementary (teaches 1st graders a bunch of safety tips).
Go!
Hey Jessica, don't blow that two grand on some FIRM PILLOWS.
Apparently, Pat misread the puzzle as FARM PILLOWS...
WHEEL PRIZE: trip to the Turtle Bay Resort on Oahu's North Shore ($5,100)
HSN.com is indeed the weeklong gift tag.
PRIZE PUZZLE!
After winning the Hawaiian vacation, Jeff could also enjoy some MILLK CHOCOLATE AND DARK CHOCOLATE when he takes his other trip to SWITZERLAND (Zurich via lastminutetravel.com).
DUD: S (Jessica)
...I dunno what Pat's doing.
JACKPOT ROUND
JACKPOT! Wendy's SKATING ON A FROZEN LAKE to take the $9,000 bonus (Pat mistakenly said $8,500) - it pays to spin!
BANKRUPT: Jeff
MYSTERY ROUND
Jessica reads what's up there to keep the gift tag.
DQ: Wendy's U repeat
Go!
I hear this all the time while on my job - Jeff says DRIVE SAFELY to pad his lead.
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $6,000
Merry Christmas, everyone.
After saying EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA, Jeff pinpoints WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA to protect his win!
FINAL SCORES
No Free Spin was necessary for him to win this match.
WINNINGS SO FAR: $55,400
BANKRUPT TRASH: $350
BONUS ROUND
JEFF’S SUPPORTERS: mom Dolly, sister Laurie, borther Rick
SPACE SPUN: S in CASH
RSTLNE gives the last two tetters:
CHMO look pretty good...
I have HIGH HOPES on Jeff solving this...he does for the Dodge Nitro!
JEFF'S FINAL TOTAL: $58,760 ($27,000, trips to Hawaii & Switzerland, and a Dodge)
Vanna prefers Dark Chocolate, but Pat prefers Milk Chocolate. Neither like White Chocolate.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: A much better show than yesterday's for sure with the repeated vowel being the only really bad part. Tons of money being given away, a good crowd cheering on the players and a Bonus Round success equal to an 8/10 for this one.

Vanna prefers Dark Chocolate, but Pat prefers Milk Chocolate. Neither like White Chocolate.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: A much better show than yesterday's for sure with the repeated vowel being the only really bad part. Tons of money being given away, a good crowd cheering on the players and a Bonus Round success equal to an 8/10 for this one.
