Pretty funny parody. Notice how during one spin, the green $300 is transparent thanks to chroma key.  Why does it seem like everybody uses that particular Wheel picture for everything Wheel-related? I saw it used on Wikipedia up until a few months ago, and I know it's among the first results when you search WOF or "wheel of fortune wheel" on Google Images. Is it royalty free? No offense to the person who made it, but it's become terribly outdated. Also, do real Wheel contestants even say "Is there a/an (letter)?" anymore? I know it was common in the Chuck Woolery era and is used in many Wheel parodies (and the Nintendo DS game), but now it's pretty much just "(letter)!" or "A (letter), please." |

Interesting parody there. That's one awfully big puzzle board for that one puzzle, but if there is anything I have to say about Wheel being in Canada, it all comes down to three simple words - La Roue Chanceuse. Quebec had their own version of Wheel back in the late 80s and early 90s. If they can revive it and maybe even inspire the rest of Canada to make their own version (whether inspired by Quebec or this spoof), it's another three simple words - go for it! In fact, I don't even care whether or not it airs on CBC!  |
