Wheel's New Season

[Guint]

What I mean is that, the contestants spin the wheel, and whatever it lands on Pat will add $1,000. Even when Pat lands on a bankrupt, Loose a Turn, or Prize, he spins it again!

You even got the rules wrong-after R3, all Prizes, the $1,000,000 wedge, and the Free Play (?) are removed, and if Pat lands on Bankrupt or Lose a Turn, $1,000 is awarded per each consonant.

That's what I am saying! Haven't they done this since 1999 or 2000? It's not new....

October 4, 1999 (the fifth week of season 17)- it coincided with the addition of the white outlines on the numbers.

I take it that the basic set (Wheel and Puzzleboard) will remain the same. I figured that on the season premiere, Pat and Vanna will officially welcome Jim Thornton to the Wheel family. I think he is the best one of the candidates. At first I wanted Rich Fields, but I can understand why he wasn't chosen.

That was also when they added the yellow $300 and removed all of the $250 wedges.

You've got the rules wrong, he respins and most of the time they edit it out if he lands on LAT/Bankrupt on Final Spin.

I swear I've seen him spin a Bankrupt and they go with it. WOFLovers mods?

WOFLovers mods?

You found one! However, I don't know the answer to your question, so I'll say I never seen it happen.

If Pat hits a bankrupt, he spins it again.  Nowadays they tend to edit it out.

I'll take your word for it, but still....I've still got that feeling that it's been done that way...

He still hits them time-to-time, but this has been edited out since February 24th, 1997. At that decision time, this included editing of prize wedges, too, but it still pertains to when Pat hits a LAT or Bankrupt.

EDIT: No, I'm not a WOFLovers mod, but I am an admin there.

The Free Play Wedge will transform into a $1,000 space in Speedup Round.

You have proof of this?

That's I have a feeling if Pat landed on the Free Play wedge.

Of course he doesn't; he's the same person who tried to pass off his whimsy as cold hard fact on Page 1.

Transform? What, like mutate or regenerate? You've been reading too much Marvel... if Pat ever does land on the Free Play wedge, he's just going to spin it again and they'll edit out the bad spin.
