$1 Million Dollar Spin

Filed under: TV News

wheeloffortune.jpg

With so many new game shows being created, some of the veteran shows are having to spice up their programming.

The classic Wheel of Fortune is now set to premier a new Million Dollar Bonus Round starting this Fall.

Contestants will have a chance to compete for $1 million.

In the new game version, a special wedge will be added to the wheel. If the contestant lands on that million dollar spot, they'll go on to try and solve the puzzle and make it to the bonus round without going bankrupt.

They'll then get a chance to spin the bonus wheel which will determine the bonus-round winner's ultimate prize. After that, they'll get to play for $1 million.

However, they'll have to land on the $1 million slot again in order to win, which seems like the odds would be fairly low that anyone will get it.

Sneaky!

The show will start its 26th season this September.

    I guess nobody is watching this has been show anymore or they wouldn't make it so difficult to win $1 million. Look at The Price Is Right. They have no problem giving their contestants a genuine shot at winning a million dollars.

    Perez,

    Please learn how to spell. You are absolutely embarrassing yourself. "PREMIERE" is the correct spelling, NOT "PREMIER"!!!!

    They've just cancelled this exact same show in Australia - I'd be surprised if it does any better there…

    It's still an amazing classic show and much better than the crap game shows on now.

    I was on this show 3 years ago … no joke. Sounds like it was 4 years too early. Guess I'll have to settle for a few grand :)

    They tried this 'Million Dollar Wheel' in Australia and it just got axed recently only a few weeks in…!!

    Good luck to the US version…

    they did this is aus.
    and they have axed it already.

    As reported by many - yes tried this in oz, and already axed after only 10 or so weeks. Think it failed in Oz because they didn't bring back 'Baby John Burgess' - perhaps some Aussies know who I am talking about - he was the host for the old version so many years ago - back in the 80s!!
