Title: Tonight's Wheel (9-10)

Wheel has added yet another new graphic. They now have a graphic for when there is a prize puzzle.

 This is starting to get a little ridiculous...(meaning their graphics, not your posts)...

Pretty soon, at the rate they're going, they'll flash the letter that the contestant called, and the dollar value, too..

And round 1, 2, etc. And they'll have commercial break graphics pretty soon, too.

I think they should have a graphic with the contestant's first and last name.

 There are probably a lot of people who wouldn't mind a flashing Vanna...

I think they should have graphics for the people who are friends/family with the bonus round player.

Now to something that irks me a tiny bit.  In the opening graphics, there is a $1500 space visible, but none of them on the wheel.

LOL...as if they'd need that, not just for Pat and Vanna, but any host...besides Contraption and Crosswits '86, were there any other shows that did an on-screen graphic of the hosts' name during the intro?

Next thing you know, they'll do a graphic introducing the bonus round.

As I said with the pink $300 wedge, the $1500 space was basically computer-generated.  I think that space disappeared around the early 90's.

 Well Street Smarts currently does this with Frank Nicotero. Though his case is a bit different then most, seeing as he intros himself rather then having someone intro him.

 In mis-reading your post (too early in the morning!), I thought you said "Wall Street Smarts" and in the process, thought up a neat spinoff of "Street Smarts" based in NYC.
