First you must be selected to try out for the show.
According to Wheel of Fortune: "More than 10,000 people try out each year and fewer than 600 lucky contestants are selected to appear on the show." might seem like you have a good chance to be on the show, but they are talking final auditions. Here is there Wheel of Fortune Contestant FAQS on the subject: How can I get an audition to be a contestant? One way to get a chance to audition is to attend a Wheelmobile event. In addition, make sure that you have filled out a contestant audition form! We will sometimes draw random names from our database to attend special auditions in selected cities. Last year over a million people requested the chance to audition for Wheel of Fortune. Fewer than 600 people were selected to appear on the show. For this reason, Wheel of Fortune strongly discourages you from incurring any expenses whatsoever: airfare, hotel, loss of wages, baby-sitter, car rental, etc. in order to try out for the show. Please be aware that an appointment to audition does not guarantee you an appearance on the show. Remember that you are responsible for any expenses incurred for accommodations, travel to and from the audition site, and to and from the taping in Los Angeles (or another city.) Hiring an agent would be another example of something that Wheel of Fortune would strongly discourage you from doing. I would highly suspect any agent who indicated they could even get you to the 10,000 final audition stage of the contestant process.
It is not a waiting list, but an audition process followed by a final audition process. 600 people are chosen to be contestants from all the applicants. Last year there were over a million applicants. see some of the related links from the Wheel of Fortune site on FAQ
Wheel of Fortune is taped at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, CA on stage 11. Jeopardy! tapes right next door on stage 10.
Wheel of Fortune has more single game winners that earn more than the Jeopardy list of 50.000 plus winners and the minimum for Wheel of Fortune is the same as the third place for Jeopardy. Only someone like Ken Jennings with multiple wins does better on Jeopardy. Since Wheel of Fortune pays out more money it would seem that on average you would do better on Wheel of Fortune. Many Jeopardy contestants leave with the second and third place prizes and still have to pay for all there costs to be on the program beginning with the audition including transportation and lodging if they were required.
