Awkward names and overly-recycled themes? I wouldn't expect anything less, really.  |

I'm going to say this much... There will be NO EXCUSE for them NOT to use a puzzle related to Frozen on at least one of the two Disney weeks. |

Personally, I'd prefer a Big Hero 6-related puzzle... ·······················NvtGWiwZ |

That too, but it's not exactly Disney's latest cash cow that has literally every object in the world available with its logo and characters on it and even people living under a rock would know about. |

^ Tell me about it. I've heard the phrase "let it go" used in ads for local banks and car dealers, for crying out loud. The latter even shoehorned in something about warm hugs. Also, Baymax/Olaf. Make it happen, fan artists. ·······················NvtGWiwZ |

Planes, Trains & Wheels I hope has a nice set to make up for cobbling together a generic name.

Thanks, dericson9.  I have a feeling Plains, Trains and Wheels is just a renamed Road Trip week, or perhaps a rebranding of the "Travel USA" theme from the early 2000's. |

Yeah, it also seems like one of those "Hey, look, we put "Wheel" in the name of a themed week! We're totally cool and not lame!" types of things, mainly since I doubt they'll try to offer a plane, train, or even a set of tires. In other words, the phrase pretty much means "Trips By Plane, Trips By Train, and Cars". |

Sounds like "Wheel Across America" to me!

Today's (February 26th) shows were taped for May 25-29. The week is Wish you Were here and the following week is America's Game.

And then Father's Week to finish. Again. Don't even need confirmation on that.

So we just have the four tapings in March left, right?
Getting invited to the 3/11 or 3/12 taping would be sweet since my birthday is the 10th. (How much advance warning do people get of their tape date?)

A TV listings update says "Wish You Were Here" is airing after "Disney Side Week", May 4-8. It's possible that they decided to move it in honor of Mom's Week since Mother's Day is on the 10th. Other weeks revealed in the latest update: May 11-15?: Big Money Week Nay 18-22 (confirmed): Spin Into Summer May 25-29?: Double Down (IGT's Double Down Casino app for Facebook and mobile; what kind of $1000 Toss-Ups will they come up with for this week, I wonder? ) It's always possible one of these themes was canceled. I've seen evidence of a Leave Winter Behind week in place of Desert Oasis, too. |

Can't rule out another experiment for S33 in a Big Money week late in the season, right?

Names, names, names...
-Wish You Were Here sounds like Trip of a Lifetime.
-Spin Into Summer...Here Comes Summer! simply sounds like a better name to me, but Spin Into Summer sounds more pizazz.
-Double Down Casino Week? Really? The Toss-Ups are probably NOT themed. It's probably like American Express' Blue Cash Week from 2003, season 21. And it's probably a sweepstakes.
Glad to see Big Money Week return.
