Simple, fun, and instantly engaging – Wheel of Fortune is a classic game show where contestants spin the wheel and solve word puzzles to win exciting prizes: from electronics and home appliances to cash – and even a brand-new car.
Created by Merv Griffin, Wheel of Fortune made its debut in the U.S. in 1975 and quickly became a global phenomenon. With ten Emmy Awards and successful adaptations in over 60 countries, it stands as the longest-running and most iconic game show in television history.
In Romania, Wheel of Fortune is produced by Zucchero Media for Kanal D. Since its premiere in 2012, the show has been brought to life by two charismatic hosts: Liviu Vârciu (in its first two seasons) and, from 2015 onward, Adrian Cristea, also known as Bursucu’, accompanied by the glamorous and beloved Ana-Maria Barnoschi.
Timeless in format, modern in execution – Wheel of Fortune continues to be a favorite for Romanian audiences season after season.
