...I don't think the wall should be visible from that angle, Guint.

I've seen the set before, guys. The center video wall is not used. Here it is used in Denver:
It was used on the 5000th show as well:

Did you guys see the promo for Fun & Fit week? If you're sensitive to spoilers, don't watch. But there is a girl on one episode who is standing in Blue and is wearing an outfit almost identical to mine!!!! So funny. I didn't watch the promo, but I just found a picture of her, and you're right!   |

Let me know when there are short, overweight guys with really full heads of hair, especially wearing argyle. Because one of those might be me.  |

^Yeah, it looks a bit "off", but the set as a whole looks warm and inviting, not unlike the 1976-92 sets. I love the fact there's furniture onstage with the full knowledge that they won't be offered due to having the property of "actual prize".  That should be an "Ask Pat & Vanna" question: "Why put furniture on the set if it isn't being offered as a prize?" And if I'm wrong, I'll eat crow, say "Dafuq?", and begin checking my local weather reports for snow. ==== Also, TPH? I could've done without that mental image, or at least the "overweight" part. I'm pretty sure you also said you had a unibrow. /also guessing you haven't gotten "the call" |

I'm not that bad really. I've seen some contestants far more overweight than I. ETA: Judge for yourself. |

WOW! Amazing shot! Great find Mario. This makes me wonder, how are the values put onto the wheel? Are they printed on?

Looking at this reminds me that the Wheel is too cash-heavy on one side -- the side that has Free Play and Lose A Turn is clearly prone to having "bad" Final Spins, but evening out the special spaces in the 1974 Round 2 style would cause problems for the extras. "What? What do you mean, offer the furniture as a prize? Who do you think we are?!" (Also love the laziness in flipping a photo horizontally for the backdrop.) |
