Not entirely sure if this is the first week of Wheel reruns or not (figured that was last week), but I noticed that they're re-running the Vegas episodes and Charlie O'Donnell is doing the announcing on them- I thought that the Vegas episodes from the start of the year were dubbed over with Johnny Gilbert's voice? I wasn't sure if they only started doing dubovers after Charlie died- I thought I remembered that they had done it before that.

Can someone refresh for me?

Charlie's Vegas intros this week remain intact, but I think Jim (since he's the new permanent announcer) will do the Rebuilding Together plug for every bonus round win that's rebroadcasted.

Can anybody confirm that?

(Don't want to go on just Bandit's word alone.)

I could be wrong, but I thought at least one week of Vegas shows aired before Charlie's passing (I want to say the premiere week, but again, I'm not sure).

Yep. Premiere week was Vegas this year.

Upon further review, some unknown lady's doing the Rebuilding Together BR win plugs.

Isn't that Vanna (along with the new Spin ID winners, too)?
