I got a chance to watch it last night. It was very good except they forgot that Vanna made an appearance as a contestant on price, she must have got on when she move to California. Well at least now i know how to pronounce Rolf's last name than spell it, i seriously give anyone great credit to anyone who can. And i didnt know that there was one host before him, but only lasted one day (betchya that episode went to the cutting room floor big time). Lets not for get that Gong Show and H2 had THS as well, btw didnt LMaD had one too?

I've got to say that it felt more like a THS on Pat and Vanna instead of WHEEL OF FORTUNE itself. I was impressed by how much of the '75-'81 WOF was shown. Finally, I now know that Rolf's last name ends as "kuh" instead of "kee". |

E! must have thought that it would be better to call it THS WoF rather than THS Pat Sajak or THS Vanna White (meaning have them one THS each) since the fact that they both work on the show. BTW did E! show how Merv came up with the WoF at the begining of the THS like the way they did with Feud?

BTW did E! show how Merv came up with the WoF at the begining of the THS like the way they did with Feud? Yes. According to THS, Merv was told to create a replacement for JeOpArDy by NBC. Merv decided to take a game Merv played for hours on end with his sister (Hangman) and turn it into a game show. |

I thought it was great to see Susan Stafford and Rolf Benirshke again. Good to see Rolf isn't bitter about WoF.

Quite frankly im surprised that they did find rolf and that he was able to talk about WoF, rumor had it that he didnt want to talk about WoF, but guess like that was a long time ago. Ive never seen an episode of Daytime Wheel with rolf, but i have seen Daytime with Goen.
