Favorite Wheel of Fortune Puzzleboard Border?
Jeremy Nelson:
As some of you know, I'm a huge fan of set design, and although I know it's cost efficient, I'm not a fan of the Million Colors of Light border around the Wheel of Fortune puzzleboard. Considering that it gets half the screen time on any given episode, I think it deserves a better design treatment than where we're at now. Also, don't look now, but it's the longest serving design, having stuck around for 15 years.
That being said, do any of you have a favorite puzzleboard design? I'm pretty sure I've covered all the US ones below, although the years may be a little off.
1. The original three line design (75-81)
2. The classic (81-94)
3. The road show with the spiky shoulders (88-97)
4. The "pinball flipper" motif (94-96)
5. The last analog board (96-97)
6. The "gold crown" touch screen board (97-03)
7. The Million Colors of Light (03-now)
BrandonFG:
I'm usually partial to eras of a show that I grew up on, so I'm leaning towards the second board.
TLEberle:
Two, three, five from favorite to less so, and the field brings up the rear.
Trisscope:
Gotta go with the road show border. It was large and was a spectacle worthy of the show. Though I do love the first era of the digital board.

Second one for the same reason BFG stated. That's the one I grew up on, although the first one is quite the close second.
