 Sony Pictures Television Upgrades to XPRI
Sony Pictures Television recently purchased three XPRI non-linear editing systems from Sony Electronics for use on "Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy."
Final editing for "Jeopardy" is done on a Sony BVE-9100 linear editing system, with plans to move to the XPRI system for next season.
According to Squyres, "Wheel of Fortune" was chosen first for full conversion to non-linear editing because director Mark Corwin was quick to recognize that a non-linear approach to finishing "Wheel" would allow him the increased flexibility to handle that show's more challenging post-production aspects and his need to do a greater number of timeline adjustments.

It is widely expected that the Sony Pictures logo will spread to Movies and Home Entertainment in the next few years, retiring the torch lady for good.
While this happens, a flash of light appears on the left side of the screen, and the lines in the background themselves back away as well, eventually moving back to the upper part of the screen and into a diagonal pattern to form the logo.
