In a bigger than average American City, Horatio Daly presents the almost adequate game show, Spin of the Wheel. Not surprisingly, the show is in danger of being pulled off the air due to its ever shrinking viewing audience. The prospect of unemployment has tweaked the anxiety of the Show's staff. The writers, Sammy and Louie and the key production personnel, Ralph and Jacko desperately try to remain sane. This is difficult. The Game Show's hostess, Regina, prepares for a career on posters or at least as a newsreader. And the show's host, Danny Lemon, the kind of man our parents warned us about, remains oblivious to his falling popularity and looks to even more visible and meatier opportunities on Dynasty … MUSICAL NUMBERS Spin Of The Wheel- Danny That's A Long Story - Janie It's Only A Game Show - Danny, Ralph, Sammy, Jacko, Louie He Likes The Girl - Danny, Ralph, Sammy, Jacko, Louie Lucky - Chester, Janie What Would You Do Without Me? - Regina, Danny One More Postcard - Chester He Loves The Girl - Danny, Ralph, Sammy, Jacko, Louie Life Is a Citrus Tree - Janie Life Is a Carousel- Chester
