Amazing what upsets people on DU....a big winner on Wheel, a photo of a snake...

I am surprised that there are people who multitask during that show, or who would find the prize aspect something that "ruins" it for them. I should think knowing a big winner was coming up would motivate people to watch the show, rather than get annoyed at knowing in advance. A big winner IS unusual, and might draw people who would ordinarily ignore a WoF thread--but only if they knew about it. And they wouldn't know about it with a vague headline, so there's that conundrum.


I always thought the most interesting part of the show was solving the puzzles, not how much money people made. For that reason, I would have thought that the real "spoiler" with regard to that show might have been "the young lady with the too-white teeth" and "TOUGH WORKOUT."
