Wheel of Fortune is a Philippine television game show broadcast by ABC and ABS-CBN. The show is based of American Originall on the same name. Originally hosted by Rustom Padilla, it aired on ABC from November 19, 2001 to May 31, 2002. The show moved to ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida evening line up from January 14 to July 25, 2008, replacing the second season of Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal and was replaced by the third season of Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal. Kris Aquino serve as the final host.[1][2][3]
Advertisements for the ABS-CBN version started during that station's coverage of the Mayweather-Hatton fight on December 9, 2007. It involved a puzzle that would reveal the title of the show. Then advertisements urged viewers to join via text messaging.
Despite Wheel of Fortune having two Philippine versions, the ABS-CBN version, as well as several of its advertisements and press releases, do not seem to recognize Rustom Padilla's version (known from this point as "the ABC version").
