Tyra Banks in less than 24 hours notice? Not likely.
Wow that"s the best abc could do is some mickey mouse mascot to turn the letters how original. They easily could have brought in someone like heidi klum or tyra banks to do vannas job while she was hosting.
I wish I had seen her earlier in the week, but I only found out this was the week yesterday. She'd getting better? That's unfortunate. She still messed up a couple of times and she doesn't seem professional and polished, but she does very well on personality.I notice that bonus round shot - like when they are taping in Hawaii or somewhere else. Must be bizarre for the crew to have a half-dozen or 10 audience members (and all family members).
Vanna's getting better as the week goes on IMO. Albeit last night's bonus round puzzle was so far out there it would take me 2 hours to figure it out. But we've had some good wins this week. Now let's see that musty, dusty and cobweb-littered confetti cannon go off before New Year's!
Still odd to have her hosting the show. I'm not used to it, and I'm sure other Wheel viewers agree. But maybe I should get used to it - how long before Pat retires for good?

Vanna replacing Pat doesn't seem likely when you consider how old she is, but I guess if Alex Trebek can do it at his age …
The problem is how much longer can Vanna look hot? It just wouldn't seem right for her to be hosting when she looks like a grandmother.
That's what I'm worried about. You know how formerly beautiful women look when they get old and don't want to admit it.They will just load on another 10 pounds of makeup.

I wondered about that. She didn't seem to have the strength to do it like Pat when I saw it.There's a really funny moment during Day 1 when Vanna does the Final Spin for the first time.

SNL showed a photo of Vanna where she looked her age (but not really). Still quite good-looking compared to others the same age, but not exactly like she looked on the show.
Sally Field still looks great and she's way older than Vanna. She was honored on the Kennedy Center special that aired last night.
All five episodes this week had the Final Spin bell ring at the earliest point possible, so all five of Vanna's spins landed in the same span of just three wedges on the WHeel ($600/$550/$500). I think I recall Pat hitting the $600 a few times, but he's usually a bit stronger than that. No way Vanna gets $5000 unless maybe she gets the Bankrupt first and has to re-spin.
They ought to loosen the wheel up a little for when she spins so it goes faster.
I remember thinking, not in a morbid way, 'I think this must be death. This must be what death is like,'" Sajak recalled during an interview with 'Good Morning America' of the health scare that forced him to miss a taping of the game show.
Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak, who underwent emergency surgery for a blocked intestine in November, is on the mend.
The 73-year-old game show veteran — who has hosted Wheel of Fortune since 1981 — gave his first interview since the ordeal on Friday's Good Morning America, talking about his health scare in detail.
"My blood pressure had fallen dramatically. They had to wait till it lifted a bit so they could do the surgery," Sajak said. "My wife and our daughter was with me, and they were, you know, they didn’t know. I mean, you go in and they don’t know if I’m coming out."
"You couldn't do anything. I was in [a] fetal position, lying on the bed," he recalled. "They try to give you various drugs for the pain. And none of it — none — was working. And then they gave me something, I couldn't even tell you the name of it, but suddenly, I wasn't thinking about the pain. I just had these beautiful pastels and lovely faces coming out of it."
I've seen it before!! Round 4 starts with the person with the MDW, no final spin bell and within 1-2 spins, BANKRUPT. I've also seen times where Pat says 'pick up the million dollar wedge', next spin BANKRUPT. Same with the Mystery $10,000. Next spin, the Bankrupt zone. Some nights that wheel is in a bad mood.
Don't get me started about that week last year where two different people lost $1,000,000 in the bonus round in the same week. I nearly quit watching Wheel for good after that.
