I didn’t really watch Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune as a kid. Mostly I guess because we didn’t have a television until I was 10. However, I did start watching Jeopardy as an adult. It is a goal in my life to be on Jeopardy someday.

I didn’t watch Wheel much, but of course I’ve seen it and am familiar with it. The thing it always makes me think about is the young adult author R.L. Stein (of Fear Street and late Goosebumps fame. I loved his books as a kid). The Wheel final clue letters almost spell Stein’s name: R-S-T-L-N-E–just rearranged and with an “I.”
