New ‘Jeopardy!’ & ‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Episodes Missing
Last night was wildly disappointing for game show fans. ABC dropped the ball by disrupting the schedule of FIVE different game shows. Making things worse, ABC did NOTHING to warn game show fans this was going to happen. And, fans were FURIOUS.
Unfortunately, new episodes of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, Celebrity Jeopardy!, and $100,000 Pyramid were missing. Likewise, depending on what region you live in, a new episode of regular Jeopardy! or regular Wheel of Fortune was also missing.
Understandably, fans were frustrated when they tuned in to ABC yesterday and didn’t get to enjoy any of their favorite game shows. In response, viewers didn’t pull any punches as they took to social media to call the network out.
The question is: Why were so many new episodes missing to begin with? More importantly, when can fans actually watch these new episodes? Keep reading for the details!
New Jeopardy! & Wheel Of Fortune Episodes Missing
Last night, the annual Country Music Awards aired on ABC from 8 P.M. to 10:30 P.M. ET. Unfortunately, this knocked most of the game shows slated to air new episodes out of their time slots.
Celebrity Jeopardy! Season 2 should have aired a new episode at 8 P.M. The new episode was missing. Celebrity Wheel of Fortune should have also aired a new episode at 9 P.M. It was also missing. Unfortunately, fans will have to wait until next week to catch these episodes. They have been rescheduled to air on November 15th instead.
$100,000 Pyramid hosted by Michael Strahan should have aired a new episode at 10 P.M. Unfortunately, it was also bumped out of its time slot for the CMA and rescheduled for next week.
Now, here’s where things get a bit confusing depending on what region a person lives in. The pre-show for the CMAs aired at 7:30. For most regions, this meant that the new episode of Wheel of Fortune also got booted this week. In other regions, however, it was Jeopardy! in the time slot that got booted last night.
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune Booted Last Week Too
As fans know, this is the second week they’ve tuned in for an episode of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune only to be disappointed. Sadly, ABC did not air a new episode of the game show last week. A breaking news broadcast ended up booting the game show out of its time slot at the last minute.
Are you frustrated with not getting to enjoy all your favorite game shows last night? Should ABC have taken the time to warn fans this would happen? Let us know in the comments. And, keep coming back for more news on your favorite game shows.
