Season 40 (COMPLETE SEASON)

Updates as of 6/24/24:

Added the following episode to the folder: #PT-314 (CWOF Season 3 holiday special), recorded during its rerun on 12/27/23 and preceded by the end of that day's syndie WOF.


Added the following rerun airings of episodes, all in 1080p60 and with a lower file size than the original 1080p30 recordings. These are mostly XL episodes (as those have edits), episodes with Bonus Round wins, or eps that were originally only in 720p or have other noteworthy moments or changes. Might delete the original versions during a future cleanup of my Drive.

Yeah, I'll have to start putting the ep numbers in my file names once I start doing S42.


*Another note about the 3/9/24 rerun copy of 7669, I also included the end of the credits of that day's Jeopardy! rerun (not sure what episode) because I noticed an unusual anomaly that the ending theme music was overlayed over the CBS Media Ventures logo instead of having the music end with the show itself followed by the CBS jingle. I noticed it when pulling up Wheel on the DVR and thought it was noteworthy.


Also, apologies for the huge black line at the bottom on the ones from KMVT. That is usually my last resort for recording weekend airings because they're the only 1080p CBS affiliate that airs WOF Weekend on Sunday evenings and therefore usually the last opportunity to get the show (WBNS sometimes airs it late Sunday nights but only when CBS has sports until 7:00 PM ET or later on Saturday). A KMVT copy usually means I had better things to do on a Saturday night than record a rerun of Wheel of Fortune that may or may not have an extra five seconds of footage during the credits.
