Back when wheel rocked with returning champions. Wish they could allow it back of contestants don’t exceed a certain amount on their first day as a winner.
The show has the luck element (which means even players who are skilled at solving puzzles may hit Bankrupt or Lose A Turn) so having returning champions doesn't really make sense. It's sad, but it's true.
Congratulations on your run on the Daytime Wheel. 1st off, how was the Caribbean, and 2nd, of all the prizes that you won(including the Jeep Cherokee), what prizes do you still have?
12:28 - Pat Sajak wore Augustus suits for many years. 15:46 - that's the first time I have ever seen this incident happen in all of the daytime videos I have seen on UA-cam (I am trying not to spoil lol), but this was actually quite a feat. Then, to go as far - also a feat. 57:16 - don't forget the 1986-1987 Service Merchandise catalog lol. They went bankrupt in 2002.
Daytime WOF aired on WHO-TV Channel 13 at 10 am and Nighttime WOF KCCI-TV Channel 8 at 6:30 pm, before it moved to Channel 13 in the fall of 1990 (or 1991 I believe)
It must have been a real burn... to watch the nighttime show with all of its glittery big-money spaces that people could take home in actual cash... and then to be told that you would appear on the daytime show. "Don't spend it all in one place... oh wait..."
In the syndicated nighttime run - June 1987. When it began the fifth season in September, they did the trial run and then kept the all-cash format. In the Daytime version, it ended when the original NBC run ended in June, 1989. It went to CBS in July, 1989 and was all-cash at that start.
someone coorrect me if i'm mistaken but I remember hearing or reading that back then, wham they recorded two daytime and three syndicated episodes each day they recorded.
I notice Pat mixes up the opening spiel as we "take a look at our wheel of fortune". Maybe he was no longer used to saying the same thing since the syndie was all cash by now?
So much memories, who else grew up with the old Wheel of Fortune?
1:11, 23:08, 44:45 - The beautiful and gorgeous VANNA WHITE!
You were so amazing in the daytime version --- thank you, Scott!

If daytime Wheel had a Tournament of Champions in those days, you would have earned an automatic invitation for the 1988 Tournament!
wow.... This was amazing to watch! What a great player!
I was 3 years old at the time and remember this episode

How long did those RCA televisions last until they broke?
