Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!, two of America's top rated syndicated game shows, have been renewed through to the 2011-12 television season.

Both shows have been on the air for nearly 25 years and are consistently among the most-watched syndicated shows in America. The most recent available ratings from Nielsen Media Research, for the week beginning December 4, have Wheel as the most-watched syndicated show averaging close to 13.3m viewers, with Jeopardy in third place with 10.2m. Those numbers make them both more popular than shows such as Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Phil which averaged 8.5m and 6.9m respectively over the week.
