Certainly seemed lower than ever before. Isn't it usually on or about the steps of the puzzleboard?

It just seems to me that keeping them socially distant would have been the easiest part of the whole thing. Have Pat enter from behind the wheel, Vanna enter from behind the puzzleboard, they greet each other six feet apart center stage, then go to their stations. Even if they're both safe, appearances are important too.

I think appearances went out the window when they awarded a trip to a foreign country.

To be fair, I think the Wheel staff has forgotten that Prize Puzzles don't necessarily have to be played for a trip. :P

That's where I usually think of it unless they've zoomed way in because it's a small puzzle.
The change I noticed was the shot of the puzzleboard on the toss-ups was a lot tighter, and it seemed like the contestants got more space as well. On one of them, the first row of screens wasn't visible at all. Shifting the category down would have allowed both.
