“I don’t want to hear these people talk. Spin the wheel.” - my 5 yo daughter watching the first few minutes of Wheel of Fortune

Pat Sajack’s talk show was proof enough that the wheel was always the real star

So true. I don’t need to witness the host feigning interest in some contestant’s lifelong career as an office manager for a car insurance company in Des Moines, Iowa. Shut up and spin the wheel.

I always thought if they REQUIRED an answer, the contestant should answer with something uncomfortable/distasteful. "Donate most of it to our local All-kill shelter to control the pest population.. and then lotto tickets to try for some REAL money."

I have always been conflicted about that part of game shows. Part of me is very, "Just get to what Dumb Dora messed up this time," and part of me understands how the game show industry works.

My viewing has reduced proportionally to how many Vegas-style bells and whistles/flashing lights, sparkles and "human interest" bits they've added along with cutting back on time the camera is on the puzzle, impeding viewer ability to solve it on their own. Why cut out the fun part?
