Wheel, Jeopardy & others suspend production due to coronavirus concerns
jjman920:
Wheel of Fortune in Greece has recently started back up production with the contestants at individual podiums away from the wheel with the plan being that each player steps up to spin the wheel when it's their turn and stay there as long as it's their turn. Seems like the simplest fix for every version of Wheel and honestly, individual podiums would probably work best for Jeopardy too.

California Governor Gavin Newsom announced guidelines for resumption of television and film production in the state. Note these do not affect Los Angeles County, which was hardest hit by COVID-19.

Not pictured: the other two contestants constantly applying hand sanitizer because they're all grasping the same pegs.

An easy (maybe tongue-in-cheek, maybe not) solution: Paint the pegs alternating red, yellow, and blue, and tell the players they have to grab their own pegs.

I know you jest, but the peg situation immediately crossed my mind too.
