Does Wheel of Fortune tape in September?

Answer 1

Wheel of Fortune will air new episodes starting on September 14 2009. That will begin the 27th season of the nighttimesyndicated version of the Wheel of Fortune Game show. They taped some shows over an extended weekend in Mid July 2009 to be aired for the 27th season. The Wheel of Fortune schedule for the taping of shows is to do a week's worth of shows on a single day. In Las Vegas they taped four weeks worth of shows over an extended weekend. While it is likely that they will tape some shows over 5 days during the month of September they have not announced it like they did for the Las Vegas taping.

Answer 2

New shows are shown from September until June. Shows are done in batches of 3 or 4 weeks episodes over a few days. Sometimes a few weeks worth at shot at a location over a week including time for the set to be assembled. They are mainly done at the Sony Pictures Television Culver City Studio where the studio is used for a week and a month's episodes are produced. Over the year 40 days are spread out into a dozen production periods and that allows the 200 episode season to be completed.
