"Wheel of Fortune," America's top-rated syndicated game show, will tape 20 segments Sept. 12, 13, 15 and 16 at the Hilton Waikoloa Village resort on the Big Island.
Show hosts Pat Sajak and Vanna White will travel with production crews from Los Angeles to complete four weeks worth of shows, which will air at 6:30 p.m. weekdays on KHON2 during the November sweeps.
Expect cries of "come on, big money" from contestants.
Letter-turner White will be wearing garments designed by local designers or purchased in Hawai'i boutiques and expect Island-themed puzzles to solve.
Local adult contestants, age 18 or older, are sought. Go to www.khon2.com for information. Tickets to tapings will be available closer to the shooting schedule.
