“Wheel of Fortune” Outrage: Fans Slam “Impossible” Puzzle That Led to Heartbreaking Contestant Loss!

Wheel of Fortune fans blame ‘tough’ puzzle after contestant’s ‘bummer’ bonus round loss

A contestant’s brutal loss that has been deemed a “bummer” was blamed on a “tough” puzzle.

Wheel of Fortune fans were feeling the loss for a contestant who missed out on a massive win in the bonus round after a “tough” puzzle.

Fans have seen several tough losses during the show’s most recent season, with some blaming host Ryan Seacrest or the show’s changes in the latest season, while others note that players make costly mistakes.

In the case of contestant Corinna, who appeared on a Season 42 episode, fans felt that her bonus round puzzle proved difficult to solve, leaving her at a disadvantage when it came to solving it and winning extra cash.

Corinna managed to make it to the bonus round, but after poor choice in letters, he was left her unable to solve the riddle before the buzzer.

Unfortunately for her, that meant missing out on an extra $40,000 in prize money.

During the round, Corinna, who had already won $21,800 during regular gameplay, guessed the letters H, D, M and I, along with the given R,S,T,L,N, and E for her puzzle, which was a phrase.

After all the letters were on the board, it read _ _ _ _ IN THE D_ _.

As the countdown ticked down, Corinna seemed perplexed, guessing “Made in the Days,” before learning the guess was incorrect.

Though Searest commended her for being on the right track in the end, it didn’t help her when it came to losing out on the $40k, which would have brought her total winnings to an impressive $61,800.

Viewers at home also felt the brutal loss, with many commenting on a Youtube clip that it was truly a puzzle that was very hard to solve.

“Tough puzzle, but good game just the same,” one person wrote.

“$40,000 loss-bummer,” another added.

Wheel of Fortune has officially wrapped its 42nd season, the first of which featured Ryan Seacrest as host. New episodes will air beginning in the fall.
