This quiz show has three contestants vying for money by answering questions on various subjects. Each episode features questions in six specific categories. They are aided by six celebrities.
On the plus side, contestants can win a substantial amount of money. Also, some viewers will enjoy the banter with the celebrities.
The show is hosted by British comedian Michael McIntyre, who has an ever-jovial temperament.
However, the show has a slow pace. Whereas each episode of "Jeopardy!" includes sixty-one questions in a variety of categories, an episode of "The Wheel" might involve only nine questions. Another feature that some viewers might not enjoy is that a contestant can win by capitalizing on the hard work done by other contestants.
This is a show with some entertainment value, but hard-core trivia fans will probably find it plodding and simple.
