Target now has a new "card" game based on Survivor.

As you can see on the box, host Jeff Probst designed it!

So I picked up the new Wheel of Fortune handheld game from Educational Insights, and there's a fun detail on the back of the box:

"Featuring the voice of Jimmy McGuire, Stage Manager of Wheel of Fortune."

Did you buy it at a store (which?), Or online?

Jimmy McGuire holds the same job on J! now.  He originally was hired  as a "Clue Crew," member.  It surprises me that neither he, nor any other  former "CC" member was given the chance to guest host.

Amazon, but it shipped from Educational Insights in an EI box via UPS.

Um, Stage Manager is an impressive title for Our Town, and that's about it.

It really surprised me since, at least prior to the pandemic when I had been to tapings of the show, he hosted the practice games. I would've thought that, along with his highly visible role as a Clue Crew member for almost 20 years at that point, would've made him a shoo-in to guest host.
