Wheel of Fortune timeline (syndicated)/Season 36

<h2>Season Changes</h2>
<ul><li>The studio intro from Season 34 is used with one modification: two of the buildings now have graphics of Pat and Vanna waving at the viewer, which are sometimes altered for the theme of the week.
</li><li>When a contestant calls a letter, the letter appears in a white circle on the bottom left corner of the screen. A red slash appears through it if it is not in the puzzle or has been called already. Because of this, the logo and "America's Game" bugs are no longer used.
</li><li>The generic contestant circle wipe is altered to remove the "35" in the center.
</li><li>No road shows are done this season.
</li><li>For the first time since being offered regularly, the $50,000 prize in the Bonus Round is not won all season.
</li><li>For the first time since Season 21, all Same Name puzzles over the course of the season use an ampersand, with none spelling out AND.
</li><li>Closed captioning is now done by Los Angeles Distribution and Broadcasting, Inc. (LADB).
</li></ul>
