I think both sides are right in a way. Yes "inside of a wheel" is descriptive but it is not AS descriptive as the "paint on a canvas" clue. The former is more of a noun whereas the latter is a verb action. I would assume today you would have to say "a wheel's inside"?

Fred pulled a Charles Nelson Reilly at 1:27.

Did she say "this is my friend, Dick Clark"?
-
She said she was gonna spend it all? $10,000 is a lot to just spend away on a whim... Not too wise, Crystal... lolz.

Oh, yeah... Totally. The judges on '70s Pyramid were a little more lax then the '80s...
-
That's right. The key is to avoid a prepositional phrase.

Speaking of groovy - I love her husband's "groovy" clothes lol! Ah I miss the 70's!

you know youre in trouble when your patner says oh oh or something similar when about ready to give clues
Inside of a Wheel would be buzzed in the 80s, no?

A similarly worded clue by Fred at the buzzer in part 4 of this episode was deemed illegal, yet his clue here was not. And it's not like the judges on this show didn't have the heart to take away an answer that won the big money if the clue was illegal. Sometimes during a celebration you would hear the buzzer sounding in the background and see the trilon turned to its "blank" pyramid side, and they'd have to calm everyone down and break it to the contestant that he/she didn't win the big money.
