Once again, another star has fallen. This time, current "Wheel of Fortune" announcer Charlie O'Donnell passed away in his sleep overnight. He was 78. http://gameshows.about.com/b/2010/11/01/sad-news-charlie-odonnell-wheel-of-fortune-announcer-has-passed-away.htm

This was pre-planned.  There are a couple more weeks pre-taped with Johnny, a few with Charlie, and Johnny will be covering until a successor is found.
