Spring is almost here, and our contestants want to get away from the winter and come into the warm sunshine; hence, this week's theme is "Leave Winter Behind".
The animated intro of the week shows Pat & Vanna appropriately walking from winter season to spring season; the logo is seen on the Sun again. Our guest announcer this week is Joe Cipriano, former announcer for the NBC shows "Deal or No Deal" and "1 vs. 100".
