Jeopardy!, The Goldbergs, and Wheel of Fortune are delaying filing restarts because of COVID-19 surges. Sony Pictures Television announced the decision to halt the holiday production for all series based in Los Angeles according to Deadline. Coronavirus is surging in Los Angeles County. Even long-standing TV fare like Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune are not exempt from this. The week of January 11th marks the anticipated start of filming again. Additional testing will be necessary for these shows to proceed without any further delays. It’s hard to say when things will really take off again. It all depends on testing and exposure. Right now, that area is a bit too chaotic to reliably have crowds on-hand. Los Angeles County Department of Public Health guidelines designate people who have participated in non-essential travel to quarantine for at least 10 days.
