Well, next month "La Ruleta de la Suerte" will be 9 years. To celebrate it, during the shows of 14th, 15th and 16th of April the nine best contestants of the show will play, and the winners of every show will play another time the 17th in a big final. And I'm glad to say that one of the nine best players... is me! I'm very excited about that! The taping would be the 9th of April (not confirmed, but very likely as they said me), and I can't wait. I will post the shows when they air, because I'm sure that all four will be very exciting!

Harry take notes, this is one of the things we would love to see over here.
Glad to hear you're getting another shot (and maybe two) at the wheel, Javier! Looking forward to hearing more as it happens.

Well, I wish you the best of luck. Still, should they have waited another year for this? 10th Anniversary? Come on.

Maybe 9 has a bigger significance over there, or the show knows something about its future and wants to do this while it still has time? In any case, good luck again, Javier.  Harry take notes, this is one of the things we would love to see over here. I'd love to see it too, but American Wheel has a lot more years (40!) to draw from. |

Yeah, I think that one of the reasons why they don't do this kind of things in Wheel is the overabundance of contestants in all these years. Anyway, for example in the Wheel 6000 week they could have brought back players from the last 1,000 shows, and it would have been perfectly acceptable. Anyway, thanks to all of you!  |

Well, I have some new information about the actual 9th anniversary special. It seems that, in that episode, they will introduce a new wedge called Todas las Vocales ("All the Vowels"). Once you have picked up it, you can use it in any round to reveal all the vowels in the puzzle for free. What do you think about it?

One question Javier, what happened to Paloma? I found a recent episode with the new girl and I was wondering if that's a permanent fix.

I'm not Javier, but I took a look at the website for la Ruleta de la Suerte and it appears Paloma has left to pursue other opportunities. Laura Moure is taking her place.

Ahhh I see. I was like wtf is this coming out with Jorge when I was watching the clip. I've only seen the one episode with her but she seems rather stiff and awkward.

Yes, Paloma is an actress and until January of this year she has been able to compaginate both works. But then she decided to leave, as Josh has said, to pursuit another opportunities. In fact she is in the USA, in Los Angeles now. By the way, yesterday I returned from Madrid, where the tapings of La Ruleta take place. The semifinals will air next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and the final will be airing on Friday. My semifinal is the last one, on April 16. I won't say anything more because I don't wanna spoil you if you are going to watch them |

No, these games are normal shows and cash is awarded to the players. Every contestant is the most representative for each year: the first three are the best of the first, second and third year and so on.

Were any of the champs from Premium being invited to play?

No, they seem to have forgot the players from Premium... In fact there only aired three episodes, the other were aired in July instead of rerun shows from that season.

Too bad Premium didn't stick around longer, I liked it as well as the fonts for the wheel and scoreboards.
