Wassup, lovers of TV game shows!! Gameshowluvr86, here; bringing you more good shtuff! Wanna buy a vowel? Wanna solve the puzzle? Feel the need for buying a ceramic dalmatian? Well, awesome!! 'Cuz, it's time for an ol' skool episode of TV's... Heck, the WORLD'S most popular game show...

Audience?

(Audience): "WHEEL... OF...FORTUNE!!!"

(Me): Thank you... Lol. This early 1986 episode of "America's Game", is one from the show's glorys days... back when the lovely Vanna White TURNED the letters, modeled glamorous furs, pointed to cars... etc., before those annoying Toss-Up Puzzles, those overly flashy, gimmicky graphics, and those... UGH! Unneeded freakin' THEME WEEKS!! Though, the million dollar bonus round is pretty O.K.... Anyhooz, for this episode (an original broadcast with original commercials...), it's Dick vs. Diane vs. Betty... Who'll "wheel" their way to a fortune in fabulous prizes?? Let's watch, game headz!!

;-)

I'm with Jimmy. I did not like Dick's gameplay at all! The only thing that interested me was the first shopping round, and that was it. I honestly wish I had been a contestant during the "shopping" years, because I would have taken everything on the turntable, lol!

@gsnman What I liked about "Wheel" from the "shopping" years, was that you could technically buy a bonus prize if you had the money to do so... Like, if you won $20,000, you would have enough to buy TWO new cars and some other goodies, and then play for a... trip some where nice in the Bonus Round. Awesome, right?! :-)
