The only major change this season is the addition of the Star Bonus. Here's how it works:
The disc appears in Rounds 1-3 and if you land on it, you pick it up with the next turn proceeding normally. If you are holding the token at the end of the game, you play a bonus puzzle for a prize of your choosing with its value reflecting on the difficulty. It uses the four-and-one-vowel format and the category is given after your chosen letters are revealed. As before, you have seven guesses, 48 hours or the option to give up. Round 4 is not played if the token is picked up. Also, the token is safe from Bankrupt.
Who would like to take on Bill McDee? I need two players.

*Big Wheels starts up* Jim Thornton: Look at these extravagant prizes! Fabulous merchandise, just waiting to be won today on Wheel of Fortune! An exciting trip to Phoenix! A lovely living room set! And a fuel-efficient Ford Fiesta! Total retail value: over $90,000! And now, here's your host: Kevin Kolsen! Me: Hi! Happy New Year again! Welcome once again to Wheel of Fortune! We're rolling on through the seventies here. This episode will be about 1978. We can't do any of this without our hostess. Give it up for Susan Stafford! *cheers and applause as Susan walks through the curtain to the puzzle board* And while she's walking to the puzzle board, let's take the time to introduce our three players.  Starting on the viewer's left, we have our returning champion. His name is Bill McDee and his one-day winnings in prizes total $6,025. *cheers and applause* Bill, you have to tell me how you figured out the CAMP DAVID puzzle with only the P on the board. What was going through your mind there? |

Well Kevin, to be honest, I was thinking the answer was PARK PLACE, and when I saw the P was the last letter of the four letter word, and I knew there were no T's in the puzzle, I was able to come up with that, plus, David happens to be my middle name  |

So you kind of worked it out from where you thought that P wasn't. Very impressive. Next up is Matt Riggenberg. Do you have any plans yet for this summer?

Hope you have fun. Enjoy your trip, Matt. Finally, we get to hear from Frank Sartori. What's new with you?

My last name is Sartori. Common mistake.
*chuckles*
But as for me, I am currently hosting Disney Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy!, and Wheel of Fortune/Jeopardy! Hour. All three shows are coming along very nicely.

It's worth mentioning we go through the guys who write my cards once a year, too. You hear that, card-writer? You're fired! *laughter* That's great to hear. Let's play this Wheel of Fortune right here. *spins the wheel*  $500 is the top dollar value. Be careful not to hit Bankrupt because if you do, you lose all your cash but not your merchandise because once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep. Also want to point out that new token on the Wheel called Star Bonus. If you pick that up, you'll have the chance to win a special prize at the end of the show. Here's our first puzzle. *puzzle reveal chimes*  The category is Fictional Character. Just before the show we drew numbers to see who would start. Bill, our champion, it's gonna be you. Good luck! |
