irismason42:
When did Wheel of Fortune stopped having the bonus round to be featured after the 4th commercial break? And Why did M.G. Kelly left Wheel to get back to radio?

 The nighttime show always had four commercial breaks. In the shopping era(and a few times early in the all-cash era), the bonus round would be played after the last commercial break. THey last played the bonus round(Syndie) after the last commercial in the 1989-90 season. They had five commercial breaks on the NBC daytime WOF(six one minute breaks in the early years). When they had the bonus round, it was played after the fourth commercial break. The 1989-91 Daytime WOF had only four commercial breaks, and when the CBS WOF debuted the bonus started being played after the third commercial break rather than the fourth.

 So, in other words 1989-90, to answer Iris' question.

Now...let's do a quick survey.

Who in the HELL would ever know anything like this, or better yet, care?

Zach, I beg of you, GET OUT THE HOUSE. Step away from the computer. It's for your own good.

Some people might care. I personally don't care about this, but there may be someone else who does. So please don't speak for everyone. Just speak for yourself.

 With all due respect, Adam, I feel very confident in saying Iris and Zach are the only ones who care.
