An Alternate Wheel of Fortune

In 1981, Wheel of Fortune host Chuck Woolery got a modest raise from Merv Griffin, the creator. He accepted it, and currently hosts the more well-known syndicated version with Vanna White, along with the daytime version, on CBS. When Charlie O' Donnell died in 2010, Chuck requested Jeopardy! announcer Johnny Gilbert be the announcer. He got the job for the daytime show; Jim Thornton announces the syndicated version. The daytime version also retains the shopping element, along with lower stakes, including a $75 wedge, and Free Spin.
