[quote name=\'MikeK\' post=\'173796\' date=\'Jan 4 2008, 09:33 AM\'] Has anybody determined where Tic Tac Dough will begin?  Someone told me in the 1979-80 season.  I had not seen official word from The Perf or GSN, though. [/quote]
The episode number in the PDF for next week's schedule, which for whatever reason Beverly posted on his site, is B-001, which would be fairly indicative of the 2nd season premiere.

This doesn't look like Vanna at the puzzle board

Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

This happens to be the *exact* episode I got from Locklin yesterday.  Funny coincidence, that. Trust me, it's Vanna. (I posted rounds 1 and 2 to Youtube earlier today) As I recall, Vanna was pregnant for most of 1994.  This would have probably been taped not too long after Vanna had her first baby.

And the exact one I got from Greg Garsten just a few weeks ago.

I don't think GSN ever reran this season, so it should be cool to see it again. Add me to the list of people who liked the spiky border. (And the spaceship open.)

This excites me.

I have not seen the 1994-1995 season of Wheel of Fortune, so this definitely interests me on how the show looked back then...

As for Tic Tac Dough...well, it's Tic Tac Dough. Great to see a B&E show back in regular rotation.

Kudos to GSN on this one.

I can handle the opening (corny, but okay) and the spikey border (darn thing still had/has turning letters) but that theme blew.  Probably worse than the current stuff on now.

/also had a very uncluttered wheel
//what...prizes, free spin
///maybe the $10K and Double Play too?
When you're at the grocery game and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you could have at "Crazy Rachel's Checkout Counter!"

The $10K space, yes. Double Play was introduced in the next season.

Great to see TTD back on the GSN lineup.  As for WOF, how refreshing it is to see the show
a dozen years back, when Vanna was still actually TURNING the letters and the emphasis
was still on the GAME itself.  These days, WOF seems to be like one big infomercial, which
is why I don't watch the new shows as much anymore.
