TV show description:
A very popular game show in which select audience members are chosen to competing to win expensive prizes, trips and cash by using their knowledge of retail item prices.
Popular pricing games of the series include Plinko, Most Expensive, Hole in One, Grocery Game, and Five Price Tags. Part of each episode are the Showcase Showdown wheel and the Showcase, in which two contestants compete for large packages of prizes.
Bob Barker retired after 35 years at which point comedian Drew Carey took over as host.
Drew Carey should stop saying GOOD LUCK because it’s really the most annoying catchphrase I’ll never want to hear. Try hit the MUTE button on TV if you’re going to watch Price is Right.
Really want the three model rotation on The Price is Right back because having two models appear on the show is not enough and they haven’t done it since Season 41 even if George Gray the announcer can do no wrong when he’s modeling. Also I don’t like when these beauties go on vacation or something and not to show up despite of their contracts. I really don’t want the iconic game show to be like some LGBT stuff and not make it very funny even if Drew Carey is wasting everybody’s time because he always talks too much and… Read more »
One other thing: The Price is Right should fire Mike Richards, Stan Blits and a few crew members on the show because they’re too overrated and doesn’t know how to fix it or rebuild from the ground up and always pick the smart people to come on down not the crazy ones and make the pricing games easy for them not the hard ones.
Wish the models on The Price is Right should stop waving on camera because it’s always an obsession to them. Also they’re not smart and zero talent at all.
My main problem on The Price is Right is Rachel Reynolds who’s one of the models on the show and she’s been appearing more than 1500 episodes since her debut back in 2003 when Bob Barker was the host at the time and my biggest problem for Reynolds is why she can’t stop waving and smiling on camera and she doesn’t have a whole lot of talent like the rest of the models including guest ones like Melissa Ordway from The Young and the Restless except Gwendolyn Osborne-Smith. I hope Rachel Reynolds should retire as a model or possibly if… Read more »
I really think that the producers of Price is Right should definitely pick the smart ones who watched the show to COME ON DOWN and NOT the dumb ones who never watched it on a daily basis. The pricing games gives people much harder these days on every episode like Stack the Deck in which the weakest part is knowing the price of grocery items even if everyday people never went to a supermarket to grocery shop in real life. Another one is Switcheroo which host Drew Carey never follows the game at all and for years no one has… Read more »
BTW, one of the pricing games I forgot to mention that host Drew Carey must learn is Punch-A-Bunch. When a contestant punches a hole on the board, Drew must tell them to not pull out the slip inside the hole just like what Bob Barker used to say when he was the host.
Bring the Three Model Rotation of Amber Lancaster, Gwendolyn Osborne-Smith & Manuela Arbelaez back on September.
Really hope The Price is Right should definitely bring back the three model rotation on every episode for the upcoming season. They haven’t done it since Season 41 and having the two model rotation with Rachel Reynolds along with a co-model is still not enough especially when the others are on break. Mike Richards and his crew better make it right or fans of the show are going to be very upset.
One final note: if The Price is Right doesn’t want to bring back the three model rotation which the producers won’t have the guts to do so then ratings will begin to plummet and fans of the show are going to be very upset because they haven’t done it since Season 41.
The Price is Right brings back the three model rotation of Amber Lancaster, Manuela Arbelaez and Gwendolyn Osborne-Smith.
You forgot to mention Rachel Reynolds. She has been on the show for over a decade and always busy when she doesn’t have the guts to take a break or go on vacation. Rachel doesn’t want fans to think she should RETIRED as a model but Reynolds is still the heart and soul of the show since Day One and I don’t know what the producers should think about. One other thing, the male model James O’Halloran who took over the job from Rob Wilson doesn’t have the talent and charisma Rob was and why did the producers want to… Read more »
Why not booked WWE superstar Dean Ambrose on The Price is Right someday.
Wish the models on The Price is Right should stop waving on camera because it’s been an obsession to them and a couple of reasons about the models is that they don’t have brains instead of beauty and they don’t zero talent and my advice for Drew Carey, he should stop wasting people’s time even though he talks too much and he should also stop mimicking the contestants’ body language. In my honest opinion, The Price is Right is not a funny show all because of Mike Richards who took over since Season 38 and he’s the most overrated producer… Read more »
MY FAVORITE games are ‘TEN CHANCES’ (where contestants make me sick when they don’t know that the prices ALL end in a ZERO! HELLO! I guess they play so infrequently so that most contestants will be lame and not know this simple rule!) and the deal or no deal tribute game, ‘HALF OFF’ in which you pick a box after having chances to get down to just 2. I always hate when it is ‘RAT RACE’ instead of ‘TEN CHANCES’! IF DREW CAREY leaves, and I think he is okay as host, not great, they will probably put a black… Read more »
Price is Right should put TEN CHANCES into retirement and there’s a reason why people are very bad at it because they never ever seen the game before and of course all three prizes must always end with a ZERO and contestant should pay attention and try not break the ZERO RULE. As for Drew Carey, he’s still not in Bob Barker’s shadow and The Price is Right will get canceled sometime in the near future if the execs at CBS Daytime better do something before millions of people are going to start giving up watching the show and ratings… Read more »
I have lot of unanswered questions on why people still can’t stand The Price is Right for all the very bad things they went through. Most importantly I really don’t know who’s responsible for setting up pricing games on every episode to make contestants harder and harder these days because the games can become your best friend or your worst enemy and also on the Showcase round even though it makes a contestant make or break them and they have to be very careful on what they’re bidding on and not to go over from the actual retail price and… Read more »
I usually do not watch The Price is Right TV show because I do not like the bidding procedure. It would be fairer to have ‘silent’ bidding – in writing from contestants. There is nothing fair about bidding $1.00 over someone else.
Couldn’t agree more. The contestants on the show are nothing a bunch of brain dead idiots and if they don’t watch Price is Right on a daily basis, WHAT GIVES? Sometimes they don’t listen to you when they watched the show but the real problem contestants are not very smart is when the player gets help from the audience because it’s always a sign of BAD KARMA like it’s just one versus the world. If a contestant is having a really bad day when someone ends up losing a pricing game and/or in the Showcase round then don’t watch Price… Read more »
BTW, the real reason contestants bid $1 more over someone else is always CHEATING not STRATEGY. I really wanted to see a player get beat up, punched or get hurt by another player if they do that because you don’t want a contestant hurt his or her feelings.
Here’s my Price is Right WISH LIST: No more guest models. Bring back the three model rotation. Bidders Row needs a new makeover if contestants gets confused on what Drew Carey is saying. Models needs to stop waving on camera. Editors better not cut to the models during pricing games if they do something stupid. Contestants must go with their gut instincts instead of looking at the crowd. Be very careful on what they’re bidding in the Showcase round if they don’t want to go over on their bids. Contestants better not say HELLO to their family nor friends during… Read more »
I totally disagree.
You’re wrong and you should know better than that. There’s still a million of unanswered questions why The Price is Right isn’t much of a success other than being a failure. Social media continues to raise questions as well and the entire Price is Right crew still can’t find a way to fix the show if no one listening because they continue to be ignored by non-Price is Right fans especially the execs at CBS Daytime. I still don’t know how long Drew Carey will continue to host the show depending on his contract and if they don’t do that,… Read more »
