Wheel of Fortune behind-the-scenes secrets revealed as fans point out massive editing error

Wheel of Fortune's behind-the-scenes taping secrets have been uncovered as many fans took notice of an obvious editing error during the latest gameshow episode.

During Ryan Seacrest's second episode as the new host of the show , many viewers picked up on a glaring inconsistency in editing as players were spinning the wheel. In the clip, viewers noticed that the player's spins were purposefully skipped leaving many to wonder why this sometimes occurs in the final edits of the show.

In a newly-posted Reddit thread , a user shared a recording of the editing error and asked: " Anybody notice the spin edit tonight?" And went on to add: " I know we’ve seen it on the Final Spin, but I’d never expect that in any other round."

• Wheel of Fortune fans slam ‘hideous' new set design that 'hurts their eyes' saying 'it's hard to focus'

An anonymous user who claimed that they worked on set of the gameshow gave an explanation as to why these types of cuts sometimes take place. They explained: "I was at the taping. They edit out whenever there are three (or six) lost turns in a row that don't add letters or change anyone's score."

They went on to explain why this specific choppy edit occurred as they wrote: "Blue hit the Bankrupt (and lost no money to it), Red spun $700 and called a wrong S, then Yellow spun $850 and called a wrong R. This is why they will never show the used letters on screen," and added: "They also edited out nine lost turns from the round before this, as I detailed in a separate post here."

This comes as many viewers also picked up on another blunder in the first episode of season 42 where they picked up on Ryan's first "incorrect call" as host of the show. During his debut episode, long-time fans noticed that Ryan granted points to a contestant despite his mispronunciation of the answer. The mishap occurred during the show's third puzzle under the food and drink category.

Contestant Terry Watson had mispronounced the puzzle which was "Vine-ripened tomatoes." But despite the mispronunciation that was obvious to many viewers tuning in at home, Ryan seemed to accept the response and granted Terry the win. This led to many die-hard fans airing out their frustrations online as they hoped he wouldn't let mistakes such as this slide in the future.
