As you all may know Sears Secret Santa Family Week was the only week from Season 34 to have $100,000 winners in the Bonus Round. But that episode as many of you may recall was pre-empted by a basketball game on the NBC stations that carried Wheel of Fortune. Is there any chance Sears Secret Santa Family Week could reair as part of the Season 34 Wheel of Fortune reruns this summer because of the fact it was the only week to feature $100,000 winners & because of the fact that episode was not seen on NBC networks due to a basketball game? I realize Wheel of Fortune doesn't usually reair these sort of weeks but let's face it if the producers of Wheel want viewers to see reruns of Wheel this summer this particular week would be a very good choice to air not only because of the $100,000 winners but because this week also gave away the most money in cash & prizes for Season 34. What do you think is there a chance this particular week could reair this summer? Should they air it this summer? Please express your thoughts on this.

99% likely not.
1) They never rerun winter or holiday-themed weeks during the summer.
2) Secret Santa shows do not even rerun during the next season's Saturday feed because the whole theme is built around the sweepstakes which is only relevant the first time it airs. Saturday reruns don't even edit in new SPIN ID's anymore. Ever since they started doing Secret Santa, not once has any such episode rerun in syndication, though Season 31's shows did air on GSN during Christmastime with a lot of chopping.
I guess there is a small chance they could pull heavy editing like on GSN and air the $100K win episode on a Saturday next winter, or perhaps add an onscreen disclaimer, but I wouldn't count on it. They do always rerun at least one $100K win, but since the only one we got this season fell on one of the only themes that can't practically be rerun, this probably won't be the case.
