Psycho Mike simply said something about "Wheel" debuted on this day, and that he wasn't aware Woolery was the original host (neither was Drew).[/quote]
Really, really not surprised they didn't know. Wheel did slap a "1983" tag on a Woolery open for a retrospective (Syn. #4,000), after all.

Please reread my post -- I was asking what year they said Wheel debuted, not the year Drew appeared.

Again. Also, I'm not really a big fan of Dr. Drew, and this is the first I've heard about this show.
All that aside, good to know my initial post was completely and utterly wrong. My initial thought was "Well, considering the date of this post it would be the "true" anniversary, but I better search on Google first."
