So you can buy a DVD of a show for $75? Do you have to be a contestant on that show, or can a fan like me just pay up $75 for some episode from 1996 if I want to? The show has demonstrated that they do have the ability to put shows or full weeks on DVD. Some shots of the interior of a Winnebago on one episode where it was won showed a DVD player in action, complete with a labeled disc sliding out. It was a DVD of the first week of Season 26. However, Anne's relative said that Anne tried to ask for one and couldn't get it. ( Here is their online inquiry for a copy) There is a certain way to get a file of a recent show, but it's quite cumbersome...and illegal, and I won't talk about it any further publicly due to forum rules.

R1: I would've went on w/ the G's, but $6K cash and gift tag is still decent. R2: Nice $10K MW win for Torrie. R3: The M was not that great of a call. TRADE MINDS? And boy did it really cost Torrie that Chevy Spark. R4: Another case where the PP mattered in the victory. If only Torrie didn't make hat fatal R3 error... Bonus Round: I knew frontloading the alphabet was a bad idea, as Mike showed us. BGHO would've worked or filling in the obvious second word as Mario pointed out wasn't such a bad idea. Then again, I would've missed w/ POLO FOURSOME. MY EP. RATING: 6 out of 10

However, Anne's relative said that Anne tried to ask for one and couldn't get it. ( Here is their online inquiry for a copy) They probably turned her down because she "only" won $3,000. If she had won much more, I'm sure Wheel would've obliged. From what I've gathered over the years, modern-day Wheel is a jerk toward people only when it doesn't matter or make them look bad to the mass media -- for example, look at the coverage of the SEVEN SWANS A-SWIMMIN(G) mis-solve (and the show's lack of response to it) in comparison to the coverage of the HICKORY-SMOKE(D) COUNTRY HAM legit judging error.
