[@msidoris07]

Vanna did fantastic! Remember, she only had a few hours to prepare before taping. Was she nervous? Yes! Did she mess up? Yes! Enough with the negativity. If you’re a true fan of Wheel, this was a real treat to watch and a historical moment for the show! I really enjoyed it.

[@Osric44]

Michael Sidoris I see I think she did well, she showed some enthusiasm!

[@Wujick8585]

Michael Sidoris no she was horrible

[@Daleylife]

Amen! Seeing her host was so fascinating and fun! I found her nervousness endearing.

[@PabloGonzalez-hv3td]

She's getting better already

[@colleendianuzzo]

And she is only human. She was probably so nervous and I absolutely loved it!!

[@clairemalinowski2971]

Vanna you did a great job hosting.

[@ShannonLSaranne]

Minnie did a great job doing Vanna’s job

[@williamgrantham4481]

Same Thing Pat Sajak Did

[@alexanderpytko5394]

It's also great publicity for both Wheel of Fortune and Disney! ;)

[@JeremiahsFiles]

She sure did, & don’t you just love the outfit she wore in this episode?

[@professorhineschoice]

Her reaction was a Pat Sajak moment in what she said lol. So fun seeing Vanna host!! Thanks for doing this producers of Wheel!!

[@HunterDillon95]

Rolf Benirshcke made the same mistake. He thought he hit the $2,000 (This was back when the show was on in the daytime), but he looked at the wrong arrow - it was a Bankrupt. Easy mistake, it can happen. Vanna did a great job tonight! You go, girl!

[@212Elevators]

But Vanna had done a final spin once after Bob Goen had kept landing on Bankrupts.

[@marcpower4167]

@@212Elevators there was another time too where because they had extra time: Vanna spun the wheel to determine a dollar amount to play for for charity and solved the puzzle. She spun twice cause she hit bankrupt on the first one, the 2nd land on $250 but since it was right on the edge of $900, Pat told her to just push it over and the $900 went to the American Cancer Society.

[@TheRenard10]

All love for Vanna hosting...❤💜💙💚💛

VANNA and MINNIE rocked it! Way to go ladies!!

[@flipsickle1122]

Great job Vanna! I think its amazing that you stepped up and took command of host!

[@markkc6125]

She is doing a great job. She or they caught her mix up so quickly, it didn't matter. She's so lovely. We love her. We are still watching every episode.

[@donaldericson8084]

Great Job Vanna Giving the wheel a final spin!

[@EmilyMDong]

That Wheel is Heavy!!! Hahaha!!! I was laughing so hard.

[@marcpower4167]

The thing is, I hear it actually is pretty tough to spin that wheel,

[@RoyalMasterpiece]

Vanna White is a National Treasure. 👑🌹🔥❤️ I had the Vanna White doll when I was little.

[@allenahlemeyer9204]

vanna did great job

[@fiercingdragon]

She did great!

[@ryanmull9826]

I remember this “Wheel of Fortune” moment, Wheel of Fortune on KZbin!😍

[@ryanmull9826]

And that’s from 2019, Wheel of Fortune on KZbin!😍

[@Larrymarx]

When Pat comes back from sick leave on the first round he should work the letter board to should his appreciation to Vanna.

[@Larrymarx]

Thanks for your response...

[@tylerhollins7522]

I would LOVE to see that

[@chakraqi6887]

I love vanna white

[@New3DSLuigi364]

THIS IS SUCH A FUNNY BLOOPER!!! I Hope More Moments are this funny; but She'll probably get better at it until Pat Comes back!!

[@1Soniccool]

New3DSLUIGI364 He will be back on the January 6th episode of Wheel

[@lisamariesinananmungal4882]

Great job Vanna.

[@Angie2343]

Vanna was fantastic! Just like in the video games!

[@Iamwhoiam993]

Pat.... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GET WELL SOON and hurry on back! We cannot do wheel WITHOUT YOU!!! 🙏

[@seanfitzpatrick9392]

I just saw her last episode today. Sure, she's not a host, but I thought she did ok. I love her voice and disposition. Very calming; I enjoyed it.

[@2trainproductions]

She did a great job!

[@JeremiahsFiles]

Vanna did a great job hosting, & Minnie did a great job too. I also like the dress Minnie wore in this episode, she looks so pretty.

[@TheMelindarosie]

Even if she stumbled it wouldn't matter! she is amazing! and brave to take on the role for a week.

[@chriso6278]

She did great - under a lot of pressure. So much for being "just a letter turner."

[@mfe23]

Well Done Vanna...❣️👍

[@alexanderpytko5394]

Vanna: "Oh, I'm looking at the wrong arrow!" Don't worry Vanna, you wouldn't be the first. Pat has often said to the contestants, "Watch that arrow right in front of you." The final spin is always determined by what the red arrow lands on.

[@jeffreybate1548]

Now, it doesn't matter whoever spinning during final spin, it's count!

[@RAINBOWNATE]

When it come to any host who host wheel of fortune and gave the wheel a final spin. Vanna White is the only person who never landed on a bankrupt or a lose a turn during a final spin. in case you guys didn't know.

[@K.Spade7902]

Vanna did great!

[@BenJabituya]

I was no stranger to Vanna hosting Wheel. One video game was all it took for me: WHEEL OF FORTUNE for PlayStation 2, released by Atari in 2003.

[@tohopes]

How do the letters turn without Vanna touching them? This must be some magic..

[@TequilaMockingBird91]

Disney Magic

[@williamgrantham4481]

Good Job Vanna White Buddy!

[@leobardolorenzo5547]

Your fun videos are fun only if Vanna IS IN IT !!!

[@t.thompson8985]

I think Vanna held it down well.

[@austintung9920]

I remember Vanna wearing black boots, black leather jacket vest, and a white shirt! I wonder where did she put it!

[@tyreevongsaly]

0:13 That wheel is heavy!! 0:15 Oh no! My first spin look at that.

[@KSMaxiefan01]

Here after Pat announced he’s leaving after this season. I think you could definitely tell the nerves but I wonder if they have worked on it in the last three years so that she could replace Pat Sajak

[@wns808]

Least Vanna’s final spins while she subbed for Pat got a half-revolution compared to when Alex Trebek gave the wheel a final spin on an April Fool’s 1997 episode and got the wheel to move only 5 wedges on his spin. Nonetheless Vanna did a great job filling in for Pat

[@robertcanada5106]

Give Vanna the show.

[@mauricelong4678]

They should do the old wheel layout from daytime with yellow lose a turn

[@chadho9701]

yeah I like her, she was best.

[@funstuff9963]

Vanna did fine. Minnie Mouse's eyes blinking though.

[@shawmou3493]

Maybe! I! Could!

[@shawmou3493]

I! Thought! Vanna! Is! Sad!

[@jeffreybate1901]

Now, it doesn't anymore, whoever spins is the final spin, Red, yellow, or Blue!

[@212Elevators]

Wow, has Vanna seen the show?

[@Lisa-di1wi]

This isn't the only time that Vanna White hadn't turn the letters on there. I heard that she took a leave of absence from the show after her boyfriend was killed in that airplane crash. I also heard that Merv Griffin's future daughter-in-law filled in her as well.

[@marcpower4167]

There was also one segment in the 80s since they had extra time they had Vanna play a puzzle for charity while Pat turned the letters (hosting from the puzzle board). They also swapped duties for a bonus round once in the 90s cause Pat's laryngitis had gotten so bad he couldn't finish. And then Lesley Sajak (Pat's wife) did it for an April Fool's show where Pat played against Vanna with Alex Trebek hosting.

[@mauricelong4678]

Alex trebek did a final spin in 1997whee of fortune during April fools

[@marcpower4167]

Yes and it was a pathetic spin 🙄

[@newyorkfan16]

What if Pat was in the Minnie mouse costume? LMAO! LOL!

[@lindabryson6901]

How to apply for a number for secret santa

[@shawmou3493]

She! Thinks! The! Wheel’s! Heavy!

[@aaronmohammed6998]

WHERE IS PAT OK

[@HectorHustles]

Funny thing is now it’s the contestant who turn it is when the bell goes off spins it

[@marcpower4167]

Whoever has the most money to that point actually. Pat I hear pushed for that rule cause he felt like the host shouldn't have any affect on the game.

[@jkaylin6]

Does no one have to touch the board anymore?

[@mikeestwick5411]

Technically no. The black screen borders are touch sensitive so Vanna or whomever can make letters appear, but since it's computer controlled they can do it this way too. Minnie has gloves on so the touch thing won't work.

[@2quann]

Tina Burton that’s really unfair since she they are the ones who asked her to stay. Stop being bitter.

[@kevinbakken2245]

It's Disney magic!

[@marcpower4167]

Vanna is there to be symbolic let's be honest, she's pretty much the face of the show. When she retires, I wouldn't rule out them just going to a computerized board without a hostess.

[@ABCEasyas--]

Chris should have called an L instead of a vowel. S P O I L E R She would’ve won $3,000 for the solve.

[@shmookins]

Why does it have two arrows?

[@shmookins]

@Anthony Guarino Nope. Thanks for explaining.

[@shmookins]

@Robert Santoli Cheers.

[@Aplusmaster22]

She tried her best. All the hate is unnecessary.

[@patrickinwinterwonderland794]

😁

[@intelligentaspie6158]

This title is misleading. She actually did it during the Goen era.

[@jonacme]

:13 That wheel is heavy. At least she didn't make one full complete revolution. :18: Vanna, it's the red arrow you're paying attention too!

[@leobardolorenzo5547]

Wow ! Some Show Hostess...More Like....SUPERMODEL Material !!!

[@marcpower4167]

To be fair, it's not something she's used to doing. She said in an interview she considers herself a shy person, people say how can you be shy when you've been on TV how long? To which she'll say "but think about it? How often do I even talk on the show?"

[@aualga]

Pat, you're fired.

[@williamgrantham4481]

No He's Not

[@edgamet8077]

YOU ASK FOR ME

[@edgamet8077]

[@galelucase5551]

Watch out, Pat! (Just kidding.) Vanna did a phenomenal job and I couldn't tell that she was nervous at all but when I saw her interview, she was truly very nervous. You're like a pro, Vanna! We love you.

[@ranelgallardo7031]

She got screwed over for the hosting gig

[@marcpower4167]

Not really, she's said she doesn't want to host again.

[@daniellewalton4100]

Hey vanna do you think you can be on double dare as celebrity contestant

[@ramonramirez3225]

Why did vanna took Pat's place

[@drewzuhosky6826]

Pat Sajak was unavailable for this tape session due to emergency surgery.

[@rdbuilder2010]

LOL, they only mistake Vanna made on the show and they show it again on YT. Vanna did a great job and I think Pat needs to let her it do every once and while.

He was out for an emergency surgery because he suffered an intestinal blockage, but he recovered from it.

I'm sure Vanna has spun the wheel more than 3 times she says.

[@justinmiddleton8818]

+Anthony Guarino Then again, the thing is that they've been consistently cutting out Final Spins landing on Bankrupt and Lose a Turn for so long that i don't think they'd allow it to happen at this point.

[@williamgrantham4481]

You Mean 1989

[@justinmiddleton8818]

+Anthony Guarino My particular favorite instance of that is the one 1990 episode in Season 7, where Pat hit Bankrupt three times before finally landing on the $5000 space on his fourth attempt. Here it is for laughs. XD kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYHZZGaAjKeXj5o&app=desktop

+Joey Wujick Good lord, you already posted the same comment elsewhere on another video on this channel. What the hell is your problem with how Vanna did here??? I mean, she's had some instances of this type of thing over the years granted rarely but it's happened. Seriously, they had her step in because Pat has been out recovering from emergency surgery. Cool your jets already, he will be back in due time.

[@catsanddogs712]

Wow. Now we know why Vanna is filmed sooo far away. Her face is all messed up What is wrong with her eyes? Weird. No wonder they don't do up close shots of her face.
