The show was created by Scott Sternberg and was hosted by David Sidoni, with Tanika Ray providing voice work and motion capture for a virtual reality hostess named "Cyber Lucy".

Game Show Network broadcast Wheel 2000's episodes concurrently with their airings on CBS.

On June 8, 2023, Sony Pictures Television announced that another kids version of Wheel is in development.

The host David will start off by giving the wheel a final spin, then he will ask the contestants to call a letter and he/she got five seconds to solve the puzzle.

The first contestant who solves the tie-breaking puzzle wins the game and advances to the bonus round.

After each round, Cyber Lucy (or a celebrity; most featured were the child actors on The Nanny, a fellow Columbia-TriStar produced series also airing on CBS) presented a short video clip related to the solved puzzle.

The Discover-branded tour, coordinated by the Chicago office of New Jersey–based promotion agency DVC Group, also featured Sidoni as host, with Ray as Lucy joining him again.
