Love Vanna White's appearance in this episode 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Megaword Was My Least Favorite Category

Thank You Pat Sajak

Within mere weeks of this episode - the contestants were playing for $25,000 cash 99% of the time in Bonus Land instead of $20,000 like this episode as shopping was dropped in favor of the all-cash format which is used to this day.

I wonder what became of Noah -- smart kid!

Lawanda sure is pretty. Look at that gorgeous hair right down to her waist.

One thing I always loved about the fee plugs read by Charlie was that totally 1980s wipe from product to product.

Boy, they really upgraded with Vanna.

SO much better in the 70s!!! Woolery provided drama & excitement, super supportive & polite to every contestant! And the contestants brought it! Plus you get to shop for your prizes! It's not even close, the best Wheel was the 1st one! Sajak/Vanna-bot is NOT what made primetime WOF successful, it was the ideal time slot & no rival show. Just a follow-up, Jeopardy, which was solid with Alex Trebeck, far & away better than Sajak could ever hope to be. What an arrogant weasel he was. Don't let the door hit ya in the a**!

Miss Pat so much already.

1:38 - No, not for another 43 years.

0:48 "Teen Week On Wheel Of Fortune. And now here's your new host, Pat Sajak" 0:56 Thank you. Thank you, Jack Clark

Can You Post Family Feud Challenge (1992-93)!

One of the last nighttime shopping episodes.

(question: "Distributed by KingWorld")

Circle head...

Vanna White was the perfect girl for Wheel Of Fortune and she has been with Wheel ever since 1982 and she has been with Pat Sajak ever since then and they have been the perfect combo to this day.

Gotta love the husband being named Bart Simpson…

Haven't seen the Battle of the Sexes special in a long time until now. This was before the shopping segment is retired.

Classic Wheel NBC Burbank Studios living on, best of luck to Pat in his future endeavors!!!!

Dayna should have mentioned that Johnny had mispronounced her name and then Bob wouldn't have given her a hard time about that.

It’s a shame that the first syndicated series (1972-80) is pretty much locked away. This post is an unexpected gem!

Ahh, the infamous "BOMBASTIC" controversy (and what pretty much sealed Megaword's fate)....

Remember that even the first full-hour in November 3, 1975, it remember also. Mr. Barker is now in heaven. But the memories are still alive through the channel named The Price is Right: The Barker Era.

19:17 Had only you had listened to Marc there, you wouldn’t have struggled on the course….

Natural from the very start.

Thank you for uploading this! The Price Is Right is my all time favorite game show! I love seeing the syndicated nighttime editions back in the late 70s with Bob Barker! Please upload more or if you could find any more, upload them!

Now this was something kids came come home to when they couldn't catch the daytime Price is Right (except in summer reruns).

Aired at 7:30 PM on WNBC, October 7, 1978.

$213,000 in 1989 is now worth $535,000 today

$100,000 in 1985 is now worth almost $290,000 today

CBS Television Studios, Hollywood, California!!!

4:16 89, BEEEEEW

What is the name of that disco song that starts at 12:59?

I was always under the impression that Changing Keys was introduced with the new syndicated version of the show. I didn't know that there is a small amount of daytime shows that predate the syndicated show but have the Merv Griffin music instead of the the Alan Thicke music. Very rare! Very interesting!

After Vanna's debut, the rest was history!

Those sets and wheel! I'll take the ceramic dog, the free week of maid service and the rest on a gift certificate. 😅

This was after Channel 6 News at 6:00 with Scott Richards and Janet Hall

His photo was on MAD magazine.

I'd completely forgotten that they used to select prizes after each round. Thanks for sharing this!

Thank you, Pat Sajak, for everything!

Vanna's dress. Whoa!!!

Ryan of Idol will be the new WOF host in the fall.

The show got so much better when they got rid of the prizes between rounds.

He looks creepy!

It’s “Disney World”.
