If "Wheel of Fortune" Is Ever Cancelled....

How many senior citizens do you think will just curl up and die? My mother just called because she has to go to church tonight and is going to miss Wheel! Can I please watch and see if they pick her Spin ID? Her whole neighborhood gathers and watches Wheel of Fortune with their little scraps of paper and pencils and they excitedly await the announcement of the Spin ID every night. And they all call it "Wheel," instead of the full name, as if they are cool kids.

What%20Is%20It%20About%20This%20Show%3F%20
• Your mother is a buzzard.

• I haven't seen it in 20 years since my dear Grandma passed. Is Vanna still on it? Is her head still enormous?

• Well I hope for your sake OP she finds something to do that makes her unhappy and gives her zero enjoyment.

• My mother loves Wheel of Fortune, too. And Jeapordy!

• r1 They do refer to the show as "Wheel" now-a-days. I don't know why but its real.

• I used to amaze my Mom by guessing the answers before all of the letters were turned over, she thought I was so smart! A great "Friends" episode has Joey watching and the clues are _ o u n t R u s h m o r e. Joey is aggravated that they can't figure out the answer is Count Rushmore.

• I really do think this is the favorite game show of the dumber half. The only people who seem to enjoy are the people who genuinely can't figure out the word(s) in under 20 seconds.

• R6 I remember that Friends ep! Howard's mother on The Big Bang Theory is freakishly good at Wheel of Fortune. A Wheel fail that is floating around on YouTube is a bonehead who guessed part of a Before and After puzzle as Star Tree instead of Star Trek. I'm sure she was mocked thoroughly when she went back to work.

• My twat is so withered and dry my girlfriend calls me her little turkey and wears mayo on her lips when she's diving.

• I knew an oldster who watched it religiously. During the open, she would chant along, "Wheel! Of! Forrrrr-tunnnnnne!" And now she's dead.

• Think how much cash Merv would've been banking all this time had the poor dear lived.

  R.S.

• Wheel and Jeopardy are shows that appeal to oldsters who didn't go to college but think they're really smart. My partner's father brags about how many questions he gets right on Jeopardy as if he is some kind of genius.

• it doesn't need to be cancelled, just sell it to Bain capital. They've rendered former retirement home favorite The Weather Channel completely unwatchable.

• DL special

• What a disgusting thread! All you bastards will be old bags some day and wish you had Wheel of Fortune instead of marinating in your own piss.

• Yes ,OP. Just as your generation will shut down once Sponge Bob leaves the airwaves.

• [quote]All you bastards will be old bags some day and wish you had Wheel of Fortune instead of marinating in your own piss. The two are hardly mutually exclusive, I can assure you.

• R15, do you pretend your Depends are a big fudgey tea bag as your squirm into the poo-goo? I hope you keep your hands clean for the communal keyboard you type your drivel on.

• Pat and Vanna owe their career longevity to Martin Short.

• Wheel of Fortune is boring to me, but my mom and grandmother loved it. It's harmless fun and gave them some pleasure in their later years. It sure beat watching Lawrence Welk with them.

• It's so hilarious that Vanna is this paragon of wholesomeness. Then she turned up in the pages of that loose lipped lesbian prostitute's memoirs.

• They'll just switch over to Family Feud. It's all just pretty lights and noise to them anyway.

• For the record, I love Jeopardy. WoF? It viscerally bothers me, though I know it shouldn't.

• Family Guy did a funny Wheel of Fortune parody once. The puzzle was GO F_CK YO_RSELF and the contestants couldn't figure it out.

• This one always makes me giggle. The contestant's guess was "A GROUP OF PILL PUSHERS"

• My mom never misses it. You just have to be steeped tired phrases like, 'A breath of fresh air' or 'Younger than Springtime". That's why the frau usually wins.

• My Dad used to call it "Spin the Bottle" (I think maybe the idea of playing spin the bottle with Vanna appealed to him). It was on at 7 PM on channel 13 every night.... and every night he would ask "When is spin the bottle on?" and when you said "7" he would then ask "What channel?"
