Great news as your favorite game shows will resume production this week and next week.

But there WILL be some changes to keep people safe.

For “Wheel of Fortune”, the wheel has been redesigned to provide proper social distancing between contestants.

And on “Jeopardy!”, the stage has been tweaked a bit to allow for more space between the three contestant podiums.  Of course, the contestants will also be at a safe distance from host ALEX TREBEK at his lectern.

Only essential crew members will be there.  They’ll have personal protective equipment for everyone behind the scenes and the staff and contestants will be tested on a regular basis.

Wheel of Fortune, which is hosted by at Pat Sajak and Vanna White, is entering its 38th season, while Alex Trebek-hosted Jeopardy! is going into its 37th season.
