According to several social media posts, the following markets saw a repeat of last Friday's episode of Wheel by mistake: New York City (WABC) Philadelphia (WPVI) Chicago (WLS) Raleigh (WTVD) These are all ABC affiliates. This is kind of ironic considering that Disney owns ABC.  Just a warning for anyone on the West Coast who watches on ABC. Anyone here who watches the show on an ABC station that did get the right episode? |

This may or may not be related... the contestant bloggers were supposed to have been on the show that aired tonight, but were not on the episode that aired on my affiliate (which was, however, at least a new episode).
I almost wonder if there might have been some problem with the tape/feed for the Monday episode. Some stations may have gotten another show from the week and ran with it, while others fell back on a rerun. I have no idea if this is true or not, and I have no evidence to back it up, but it would be a semi-plausible reason for what happened.

Looks like this wasn't on all ABC stations. An Orlando viewer confirmed that WFTV did air the right episode tonight.

Orlando? Where Disney World is located? Hmm. Interesting coincidence.

Wheel has officially acknowledged the mistake. No West Coast stations appear to have been part of it.
WABC in New York will be airing tonight's episode at 1:35 AM.

I watch WKRN ABC 2 (Nashville) and they aired the correct episode.
