^ You know, what? You're probably right. There are only three sixth shows left we don't know about, and seven weeks that have only aired five shows to date (not counting Fun & Fit and Wheel Loves New York. They likely wouldn't air another show from either of those weeks so far apart from the rest).
Actually, Nate, were there even six groups of couples that day, or just five if you recall?

I may have inappropriately groped my wife while celebrating a puzzle win. I asked the stage manager if they would edit it out, and they most definitely did not. What was the stage manager's response after you asked? Or was that it? We had about a 10 minute stop-tape when the video wall behind the contestants froze up. We all had to turn around and face the video wall and sweat while they worked on it. *twitch-twitch* Apologies in advance to everyone... But really, Wheel? REALLY?!  Does the (and let's be honest, here) useless video wall actually matter that much to the point where you stop tape if it freezes? Do you realize how incredibly stupid that concept sounds? The Culver City audiences barely respond to anything as-is, but having a 10 (or whatever)-minute stopdown to fix the video wall only makes them more restless and unlikely to be your trained seals. I'd say "fix your priorities", but I lost any hope for that after your dubbing obsession and Vanna For A "Day". (Again, sorry...I read Nate's comment and had to blow off some steam.  That was really, really useless for Wheel to do -- either ignore the video wall if it freezes, or don't use it at all.) |

I just couldn't help but think of him running through 1500 BRs awhile back and I think capturing similar data.

There were 5 shows taped that day, and we were the last. I have a feeling that the production staff doesn't do that well with couples, as everything seems to take more than twice as long as normal.
The stage manager was really cool, and just kinda shrugged off the boob grab.
