- From 1989: It's near the end of the game and it's time for Pat to give the wheel a final spin. Easy, right? Not really as you'll see in this clip, but in the end, Pat's hard work pays off!

I like how the crowd gets progressively more and more rowdy.
Seeing Pat go bankrupt several times is funny. 😅
"Vowels are worth nothing, consonants are worth ... BANKRUPT!"
Would make for an intriguing final round lol
@@Zacky1053 It would be a competition to see who has the LEAST to lose.
So if he picked it, then every time a letter got picked, *B A N K R U P T*
okay that made me laugh that was funny job well done there
$0 lol
2023/04/04: First show after God knows how long to show an unedited Final Spin segment -- amusingly, Dane repeated history by landing on Bankrupt several times.
The last time an unedited Final Spin happened was in 1998.
That was hilarious! Nowadays if they land on *bankrupt* or *lose a turn* it gets edited it out. This way is much better! 😄😄👍💜
it was 3 bankrupt in a row so it was worth adding it
My opion i hate that like bro its more funny how many times it feel boring
The 2023 shows show that because the contestant will spin the wheel
They leave it in now as of 2023 lol
I've never seen older Wheel before! So cool!
Eszra you haven't seen old WoF until you've seen the buying crap round after each round.
I HATED the shopping era soooo much! Luckily it was dropped by 1987 or ‘88 🥺
Eww that sounds awful
@@sweetlife031 just on nighttime. Shopping was still done on NBC and CBS.
@@VicGChad07 They need to bring back shopping, at least on the celebrity ABC series.
She was so happy because the amount she won in those 5 seconds, totaled more than she took home the day before.
Love this lady screaming "APPLIANCE STORE! YAY!!!"
Who came back here after Dane spun 2 Lose a Turns and a Bankrupt on Wheel of Fortune yesterday?
I actually did...and, yes, I've seen this clip before.
This is one of the oldest game show related clips on this site.
1st: Spin again!
2nd:Okay…
3rd: OKAY, just stop it!
4th: That was worth waiting for!
Season 7 - June 14, 1990.
I think these days if this happens, they edit it out.
that is correct.
124
It helps to save time from hitting bankrupt.
No, the new version, they go ahead and just add $1,000 to $500.
@@CaseyQuotes They edit out Pat hitting a Bankrupt or Lose A Turn space.
Last night a contestant landed on 2 Lose a Turns and a Bankrupt for the Final Spin
0:33 HEY! HEY!
There was another episode where pat spins and gets bankrupt 3 times and and when he spins the 4th time he yells ''let's make it 4 in a row!!!''
Which one?
The way Sony works these days, they paint Pat Sajak as perfect.
Until you see any sudden leaps between spaces.
Brendan Richards
Now the set is taped for a live audience at Sony Pictures Studios, Culver City, California 90232.
That's why I wish the episodes you see on TV were raw footage.
Stop editing out the fail spins SONY!
Damnit SPE
Gerard Landry sometimes I imagine seeing this on HBO or something, all uncut and stuff.
Goodness, it's 20 years old and I still get all happy for them...
IF you watched it,you would have noticed that he's spinning the wheel at his full strength,which just happens to be 1 rotation. On the 4th spin though he spins weak just to make sure it doesn't happen again. Rigged? No,just him trying to get it past Bankrupt the 2nd and 3rd time. Great show!
This would be hilarious if it happened.
*Pat does the final spin*
BANKRUPT!
*Pat spins again*
BANKRUPT!
*Pat spins again*
FREE PLAY!
*Pat spins once again*
FREE PLAY!
*Pat spins ONCE AGAIN*
ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
*Sigh*.
And we'd never see it, because it just gets edited out.
Poisonnachos p
The million dollar also gets edited out if present on round 4
I don't think they even put the million dollar wedge on during round 4, I think they just take it off the wheel
@@GameShowFan9001 yeah
0:40 I keep replaying that part
Also, who shouted "OOOOOHHHHH!!"?
THIS is why final spins that land on anything other than a cash wedge are edited out nowadays.
2023/04/04 left it in for the first time after some decades.
And then they did it again just a couple days ago!
"I just won a lot of money!"
Like we can see that lol.
"P!", "Yes, Yes"! Lol
I remember this episode. It was too hilarious.
"I just won a lot of money!!!!" Gotta love the obvious statement. xD
The clip of Chuck Woolery's bad spins brought me to the Pat Sajak version!
i cant stop laughing when she throws her hands up! its the best thing ever!!!
Only four words for Pat's attempts at the wheel... "YOU CAN DO IT!!!"
Pat: HEY! HEY!
I like that they add an extra $1,000 even on the %5,000 wedge! It's so awesome to watch! :)
and we're back here again after what happened last night.
I saw a season 6 episode where his Final Spin hit Bankrupt twice. Three is definitely a record.
You could easily hear a canned audience groan at the beginning when a supposed wrong letter was called, and twice when Pat landed on BANKRUPT on the final spin.
It's used on other game shows recorded at CBS Television City from the '80s-early '90s such as the Pyramids, Press Your Luck, and Combs' Family Feud, for example, when a bad move made by a contestant happens. Hope this helps! :)
Wow!!! Pat landed on a Bankrupt 3 times. I was like: Strike 1, Strike 2, Strike 3. It was sooooooooooooooo hilarious. Pat Sajak is amazing. 🙂
I like how the crowd laughs at Pat hitting several bankrupts.
That also happened on an episode from 1993 or 1994, where Pat hit Bankrupt 3 times in a row, with his final attempt landing on $1500.
0:20 bankrupt sound
0:47 "I'll have what she's having...." Harry met Sally
@Poisonnachos unfortunately, the million dollar wedge is off the wheel after round 3
It's practically the reason why you don't see Final Spins landing on a non-dollar figure wedge anymore.
Its very simply to explain, he was spinning the wheel with the exact same force for all 3 spins which landed on the exact same spot.
I think the record is 6 or 7, they edit out that today
This might be happened on Season 39.
*Contestant do the final spin*
BANKRUPT!
*Spins again*
BANKRUPT!
*Spins again*
$5000!!!
I've always wondered what would happen if Pat spun a "Bankrupt". Thanks for enlightening me.
0:34 hey,hey!
In the words of Rob Schneider, "YOU CAN DO IT!!!"
Agreed. The sound effect DID play whenever Chuck would land on Bankrupt in the final spin.
I was rofl: when he went, "Hey! Hey!"
Watching these clips, I realized something. Why Can't The Wheel spin nice and light now? Why Is The Wheel we see on TV currently so heavy?
Less time the wheel spins, the more time can be attributed to game play. Or commercials.
The Wheel weighs about 2400 lbs today. I'm not sure of the weight back then.
I do feel too that with how heavy the wheel is and when Pat makes the final spin, along with the placement of the $5000 (now much harder for Pat to reach it as he can't do a full spin around compared to back then), it would be that there is more money saved for the show, and less big winners. Can it be a reason why there is a rumor that in 2026 WoF will no longer be airing because of Sony et. al doing this to make it less popular?
@@excelsior27 The FCC would like a word with you.
You’ve gotta love her reaction!
"I just won a lot of money"
It happens often enough, but these days, they are so busy cutting stuff out of the show to save time, they just edit out whenever Pat's final spin lands on a non-dollar value, which is exactly why you haven't seen that happen in years.
Lol Pat Sajak got Bankrupt 3 times hehehe
in the 80s 10,000 was a lot of money.
As opposed to today, where 10,000 can barely buy you a piece of candy :P
#inflation
I'll give the wheel 4 final spins!
Back in the days when contestants could spend more than one day at Wheel of Fortune. I realize there are a lot of contestants wanting to play, but, the returning champion aspect is something I wished they returned to the show, especially since this is a game show where you win money as long as you solve a puzzle or win a "tossup". Jeopardy! got rid of their 5 day max requirement and we all saw what happened there.
I miss gameshow goofs like these. It added to the charm of a show.
Is it just me, or does Pat Sajak have all the intensity of a bowl of buttermilk?
I remember an old episode where Pat landed on so many bankrupt's, lose a turn's, etc. that he actually called Vanna over to spin the final spin. I can't find that one anywhere, though.
I heard about that too….always thought it was a joke though lol haha 😂
This is when Wheel of Fortune was more like Jeopardy!
they are very different
The current sound effects were first used when the daytime version of Wheel of Fortune moved to CBS in July 1989. They were carried over to the nighttime version in September.
I'm pretty sure Pat Sajak just spins again, and they edit out the tight-shot of the first spin and the overhead shot of the second in post-production. Since Pat Sajak only gives the final spin spiel on the first attempt, they have to use the overhead shot of the first spin.
am I the only one who loves this version of wheel of fortune?
No?
I'm pretty sure Pat just spins again, and they edit out the tight-shot of the first spin and the overhead shot of the second in post-production.
With the magic of editing, you don’t see this happen anymore. :/
it was around 1977 or 78 (soon after the 1500 dollar space was the highest dollar amount) when Chuck Woolery spun 4 Bankrupts in a row, and it was hilarious, wish someone had it. I remember it so well even though i was only 6 or 7 years old.
Spin 1: Okay... i'll spin it again
Spin 2: Okay.... (longer pause) let's spin it again
Spin 3: Well, let's try this again.
Spin 4: DO AW HAW HAW! (Chuck laughing VERY loudly)
Spin 5: lands on 1500 and yells "I've GOT IT!" Crowd pops loud. :D
Heh, I'm sure you're correct. Unfortunately Wheel of Fortune fell victim to a process called "wiping" (up until 1980 or so, I think) where show tapes were reused instead of preserved, so sadly it may not exist in any form. '77-78 was when VCR adoption was still very low as well, so home recordings are unlikely as well, barring someone having some random audio recording.
But it is still pretty neat that you remember that after all these years, heh.
@@MrEightThreeOne unless NBC’s vault has it
0:12 You call that a final spin? The wheel must be rough on him!
the wheel was still kinda light in '89
Corey Payne The wheel is light huh? It must be tough not getting a bankrupt!
Ben Best hey it was the way Pat spun
Corey Payne
Oh my!
Ben Best smart ass
Now I know why nowadays they skip that part when he's about to go Bankrupt or lose his turn! XD
I choked drinking water when she said yes yes yes
The part that makes me laugh the most is he hit the exact same bankrupt wedge each time XD XD XD XD
Hit the same spot 3 times in a row and then hits the 5000 like its no big deal.
@@JAMDJAMD Pat be like: I meant to do that
That's because Bob Goen hosted the network daytime version; that wasn't syndicated. King World was the show's syndication distributor, not production company.
Pat's speech:
And constenant worth eh
*Land on bankrupt pad*
I give it another spin.
*Land on bankrupt pad again*
*sigh*
And, it was lifting up that hard...
*land on bankrupt pad again*
Hey, hey!!
*gigles*
*Lands on $5000 pad*
Thats worth waiting for!!
0:01 - No M's indeed... and we're coming up on 18 minutes past the hour.
Damn, $10,000 back then was probably like $20,000. They never even change it.
Yep, I agree. You have seen on occasion that the wheel can be a real "bitch" to Pat and the players, as in this clip. ;)
I think because of the editing used for the show to replace the entire board for a new puzzle and rearrange all the letters, editing bankrupt spins would have cost even more money to produce so they kept it to save money. Now with the electronic board, penalty spaces or prizes landed on in the final spin can get edited because it's much easier to program the board than replace each space. I do notice that it looks like it's going for bankrupt, then there is no bankrupt in sight with the board.
Editing out bad Final Spins has been the usual since 1997.
Emphasis on "usual" -- the 2023/04/04 installment left the bad spins in after a loooooooong time.
@NYIslander12 They actually did that for Pat until about the mid 80s. There's a 1985 episode somewhere where he hits Bankrupt on the Final Spin, and the slide whistle sounds, but I don't remember it ever happening when GSN reran season 6 into the ground.
Thx man... many speak about looking at things from outside the box, one step further, be the box, it will always unveils more. Take care.
First bankrupt -- shame on you
Second bankrupt -- shame on me
Third bankrupt -- shame on all of us!
0:33 HEY! HEY!
0:28
OK my memory is awesome. I knew there was a time where the final spin went bankrupt a few times in a row
Crazy moment there!
Wow, at 30 seconds, you can barely hear them play the Bankrupt sound.
lol, it really wasn't "Third time's a charm." I love this clip!
A solution for the final spin would be if the red arrow lands on bankrupt or lose a turn, then what the yellow arrow is pointing to will be the value of each consonant for the rest of the puzzle.
No that wouldn’t work
wheel of fortune has come a looooooooong way.
That's what they did during that season whenever somebody got five figures...just in case you were wondering.
If you're in the Chicago area, ask the Technical director to leave at least one of those Bankrupt or Lose-a-Turn spins in the finished product before this 25th syndication season is out.
Id like to buy a vowel Pat, X.
95 Xs.
never saw this b4 or did I? I was 7 at the time and my grandmother's favorite game. I just don't remember it. This game helped me be a better speller though.
Thank you for this laugh.
It is edited out... however there are only 2 wedges that can be hit to be edited out.
Pat: You just won $10000, now spend it at beach themed store. Contestant: For $5000 I'll take the pail. For $4000 I'll take the shovel to go with the pail and for $1000 I'll take the life savers. Charlie: This isn't just any life savers but 5 fruity flavors.
It was better on the Chuck Woolery version... they would play the bankrupt sound effect when he hit a bankrupt on the final spin. I do remember one Woolery episode when he hit Bankrupt, Bankrupt, Lose a turn, Bankrupt.. He went crazy when he hit the third bankrupt.
@Mindraker1 I doubt he's going anywhere soon. Take a look at Alex Trebek. He's 70 years old now, and he's STILL hosting Jeopardy! (ever since 1984, if I'm not mistaken). Pat Sajak is like 64, and he's been hosting a little longer than Trebek.
Hell yeah. bring the clasic days.
A $1,000,000 MOMENT!!!!!!!! (even tho $1,000,000 game shows were few & far between back then!)
LOVE the 80's hair!!!! (what the hell were we thinking?.?.?.)
I wouldn't mind seeing full episodes from 1989 to 1992 (Seasons 7, 8 and 9) on here.
When did they start editing out spins Pat made that landed on a non-cash value?
My reply is more than a decade late, but final spins that landed on non-cash wedges past mid to late 1997 are always edited out for the sake of time.
It's bad enough that the technical director had to cut out Pat and Vanna's annual "Drive Sober" reminder on Monday's show due to time constraints, but I think that he or she has to leave at least one Bankrupt final spin in the finsihed product per season.
It doesn't have may or June of 1990 of wheel of fortune on pluto tv
I remember watching this when I was a child
Me too since 2009
Pat, you can land on $5000. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny!
I don't remember when but on an end of a recent episode at the end Pat revealed that they now edit out the times he lands on bankrupts on final spins because it's a waste of time.
Me thinks the producers figured out the average velocity of Pat's spin and placed the $5,000 space on the wheel accordingly. That way, he was sure to land a $5,000 space on a regular basis, thus creating extra suspense into the final round. Why would a regular viewer watch if they know that the round isn't going to determine the final standings?
Rick's Travelogue but he doesn’t though, I can watch almost three weeks worth of episodes and he may hit it 2-3 times if that
