Wheel of Fortune probably didn’t intend to send viewers’ minds straight into the gutter with one of its latest puzzles.
During last night’s episode on Thursday, September 24, contestants were tasked with solving a puzzle during a toss-up round in the “All Dressed Up” category. But before enough letters appeared to make the answer obvious, the board displayed a combination that looked a little more suggestive than producers likely intended.
At one point, the puzzle read: “PU_ _I_G _N _Y P_N_S.”
A screenshot of the unfinished board quickly made its way online, where viewers began filling in those blanks with some decidedly less family-friendly possibilities. Let’s just say several people were particularly distracted by that final word.
View on Threads“They bloody well know what they’re doing,” one fan claimed.
“I would have been escorted out,” quipped another.
A third said, “They act all innocent but they know what they’re doing.”
“Yooooooooo, I never laughed do hard at a puzzle. I died died died,” replied a fourth.
Of course, the actual answer was completely innocent: “PUTTING ON MY PANTS.”
Wheel of Fortune recently made a major change
The unintentionally cheeky puzzle comes shortly after Wheel of Fortune returned for a new season without one of its longtime voices.
Announcer Jim Thornton, who had been with the syndicated game show since 2010, was fired by Sony Pictures Television earlier this month following an investigation into allegations concerning him.
The studio confirmed Thornton’s termination was effective immediately. His previously recorded portions of upcoming episodes were subsequently re-recorded by an interim announcer, with no permanent replacement announced at the time.
Thornton had initially been suspended after another airline passenger reportedly raised concerns over material allegedly visible on his laptop during a May flight. Authorities questioned Thornton after the plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport, but no arrest was reported.
