Wheel of Fortune Adds $1M Twist
Million Dollar Bonus Round to be added to Sony Pictures Television this fall.

CBS’ Wheel of Fortune will premiere a new Million Dollar Bonus Round come fall, in which players will have a chance to win $1 million.
In this version of the game, a wedge will be added to the wheel. If a contestant lands on $1 million and then goes on to solve the puzzle and make it to the bonus round without hitting bankrupt, he or she will have a chance to spin the bonus wheel -- which determines a bonus-round winner’s ultimate prize -- and then play for $1 million.
The catch is that the contestant has to land on $1 million again, which makes the odds of actually playing for $1 million pretty low.
Wheel of Fortune, produced by Sony Pictures Television, begins its 26th season Sept. 8. The game show is the top-rated program among households in syndication.
