Here is a recap of the game. She's Spencer, the blue player.

Congratulations, Spencer! You had a tough bonus puzzle. Do you remember anything that was edited out of the episode, like extra wrong letters or maybe a technical difficulty?

Actually, I discovered an edit thanks to a score discrepancy and Pat's comments. The show often edits out when all three players lose their turn in a row.

Watch closely here starting at 10:46. Notice his score is $1150, then gets one L on $300 and buys the I (-$250), so that should be $1200, but when he calls the wrong M next, he only has $950, so that must mean he bought a wrong O (since AEIU are all in the puzzle), followed by Gabrielle and you both losing your turns. Pat tells Gabrielle "Try it again" even though she didn't spin on-air yet, so that means she must have got a Bankrupt, and you, probably a wrong R?

Sorry if your brain hurts. I always notice when the show does these edits and I like trying to figure out what happened. :P Again, congratulations on your winnings and enjoy your trip!

Since Wheel of Fortune is a syndicated game show, it's not in danger of getting pre-empted nationwide across one network. It always airs somewhere. My friend was on the November 6, 2012 episode and it was pre-empted on most stations because of Election Day, but some still aired it at its normal time, and some moved them to an overnight slot, plus it's rerunning later this month (though someone put it on YouTube for her). She got her check exactly 4 months later (March 6).

Congratulations! Here's a recap of your show for those who don't have time to watch the video. (I'm the user with the NY avatar and red stars)

Did you get to choose what color the car would be?

How did you get a copy of your show? Did you record it yourself, did you torrent it, or did you buy it from the show? I ask because some contestants say they don't get a copy, but someone else whose wife was on the same week as you (Robyn, if you remember) said that they could buy one for $75.

He does sometimes, but they edit it out when he does.

Funny story on this. I was in the audience for a few episodes recently. On the episode that was taped to air on May 24, the Final Spin looked very much like it would stop on Bankrupt, so I jokingly booed loudly, and then it clicked off the Bankrupt. It was pretty embarrassing. You'll probably hear the boo when the show airs.
