Ah, the days before having a theme meant that the first puzzle would always be cliched.  Thanks for doing this!  I look forward to more revelations about 90's-00's Wheel. |

Now wheelfan82, there are corrections on the dates and the format that corresponds to the weeks.
Great Rail Journey, January 22-26, 1996
Mexico & Arizona, January 29-February 2, 1996
Sweethearts Week, February 5-9, 1996(Friday Finals format)
Big Island Week in Hawaii, February 12-16, 1996(Returning Champions format and only 3 rounds were played)
Family Week in Hawaii, February 19-23, 1996
Phoenix Week back in Culver City, February 26-March 1, 1996(the week started out having 2 returning champions, 1 carried over from February 2 and the other from the February 16 Hawaii show).
Atlanta Week, April 22-26, 1996(Returning Champions format)
Olympic Games Week, April 29, 1996(Friday Finals)
Holland, May 13-17, 1996
Alaskan Cruise Week, May 20-24, 1996
Salute to the Olympics Week in Culver City, May 27-31, 1996(Friday Finals)
Endless Summer, June 3-7, 1996(Returning Champions format with only 3 rounds played)
Olympic Champions Week in Atlanta, July 15-19, 1996(Friday Finals)
You seem to forget that there was a 2nd mid-season rerun week on April 15-19, 1996 and really, the theme weeks were pretty much nonexistent during the returning champions format and you have this season's theme weeks mixed in with Season 14's theme weeks as well.

Thanks for the corrections! When I comprised this originally I was doing it from GSN airings so they also may have aired some out of order. Not sure what you mean about mixing in the Season 14 Theme Weeks though...many of these as I said I just made up the actual theme names based on proper Theme Weeks in seasons following with similar sets. |

I see, based on the pinpoints at alt.tv.gameshows, all of the Atlanta weeks and the May 27-31, 1996 Salute to the Olympics Week was skipped entirely IIRC. The next thing we can discuss is the Bonus Round records for each week but the weekly BR overall stats date back to Season 7(the season that introduced new sound effects packages and the returning champions format and the drumroll during the bonus round was dropped). |

I do recall at least one of the Atlanta Weeks airing on GSN...I’ll have to go back and check my tapes at some point soon. |

Did you say you have some Season 13(1995-96 Season) Wheel of Fortune episodes on tape? Would you be okay with recapping some of the Season 13 Wheel of Fortune episodes you have not yet recapped on this message board on the Classic Wheel thread(the 90’s wheel episodes section) if it’s okay with you? I’ll understand if you don’t want to. |

I understand completely! I love classic episodes of Wheel of Fortune but I now also understand if you’re unable to upload or recap them it’s because you’re to busy in life to do so. Or it could also mean you just don’t want to at the moment or at all. |

You wouldn't happen to have any stats or interesting facts about Double Play uses, would you?
