Wheel of Fortune April Fools' Day Episode (Spoilers...kinda)

[rodroddyfan]

This is what I had, in the open, pat was on left and vanna was on the right instead of vice versa, round 1 the bankrupt was spelled wrong and vanna introduced the puzzle from the left instead of right side, round 2, I didn't really notice anything, round 3, some older guy introduced the puzzle instead of vanna, final spin, a earlier year background was used, and bonus round pat and vanna were in the audience when the contestants family was introduced.  The closing I did not notice anything.

All 10 (slideshow).

I did not get #5 or #8, I looked at the Wheel Sony boards for assistance after spending a good amount of time searching. While #8 was just a , #5 was VERY difficult.

[rodroddyfan]

Oh for goodness sake.   

[JokerFan]

I somewhat noticed the "final spin" one but didn't think much of it.

After seeing that slideshow I now realize I had 6 of the gags found (2,4,6,7,9, and 10 on the slideshow).

round 3, some older guy introduced the puzzle instead of vanna

I haven't seen the show yet, but apparently it's Charlie O'Donnell, the announcer.

[rodroddyfan]

Yeah I just realized that after seeing the slideshow.

[WooWho]

Never caught #5 at all.

And if you look really carefully, the Wheel where Charlie, Vanna, and Pat are standing in the opening isn't set up for the first round--they left it alone after the Final Spin.

[JokerFan]

Where is the wheel normally set at?

[Wayoshi]

The big money (2500+) is set at the center of yellow at the start of R1-4.

A lot of the gags were indeed post-taped; you can see that the $300 is properly where Pat spun it at the end.

These are the 10 unusual things found in the 2010 April Fools' Day episode of Wheel of Fortune:

1 ) Show Open - Vanna is seen walking out with Pat on opposite sides than usual
2 ) Show Open - First shot of contestants show Charlie (the announcer), Vanna, and Pat
3 ) Round 1 - One BANKRUPT wedge is spelled BANKRUT (missing P) (appears the entire game)
4 ) Round 1 - Eggland's Best logo does not appear all of the time above the Jackpot graphic
5 ) Round 2 - Pat is wearing an earring in his right ear during the second round
6 ) Round 3 - Charlie is superimposed onto the video introducing the third round puzzle
7 ) Final Spin - Final spin shows old stock footage instead of Pat's real final spin of the wheel
8 ) Bonus Round - Pat is now wearing a gray suit jacket instead of black
9 ) Bonus Round - Pat and Vanna are sitting behind the family members of the winning contestant
10 ) Show Close - Pat and Vanna are wearing contestant name tags

Some other things I questioned:

Don't they usually show a Wheel of Fortune logo when you hear "Wheel... of... Fortune"?
I originally thought that the rodeo clip in the Hawaii show intro video was a mistake (not true, rodeos are there)
Do they normally use blue lights on the stage after the contestant spins the prize wheel?

Some people online said there was NY harbor video for SF, which is not true.
I also do not see that any of the other wedges on the wheel were changed during the show.

[Wayoshi]

Your #4 is wrong.

The WoF logo does not always appear, depending on the theme of the week.

[Roadgeek Adam]

Didn't Pat say "You don't need to answer in the form of a question?" to the Jerseyan? I don't remember him doing such.
