I didn't get a chance to watch the episode until after reading this thread... Ihor did not start out at the blue readout. He started out at the green readout, as he should have.

Speaking of Rich on camera, Roger was standing on the same side of the stage as he was.  Wonder why that was.

Jeff had the day off, so Roger was doing Jeff's job (note that Roger was holding the "Stage game" cue card).

[color=660066]Lucky Seven:[/color][/b]There were several mistakes in this game. one of them happens to be why whould she pick 6 instead of a 9 in the price of the Jeep (hint: Jeep Wrangler's 2nd number of the price is always been a 9!) and 2nd i knew this was a repeat when they shown the 8 and the 3 and she should have said 4 not 5. Last, if she missed the missed the 2 middle numbers by $1 and $2 and had the 2nd number right she should had won the Jeep.

[color=660066]Half Off:[/color][/b]The audience told her that the $10,000 was in #4 (my b-day) and she went with 15 and loss and i knew it was in Box #4!

[color=000000]Squeeze Play:[/color][/b]OUCH! I thought she had won this game but that hurts!

[color=FFFF00]One Away:[/color][/b]Yep! Another easy win for this principal.

[color=000099]Step Up:[/color][/b]I see this game less often than Poker Game, Take Two, and Danger Price. I knew when he picked the applances, day bed, and the piano, there is no way that the picnic totes was not more than $2,595.

[color=0000CC]Hit Me:[/color][/b]3 times in a row! 3 Lossers in a row. She missed that granola bars, that would have given her an ace plus the pineapple slices she chosen and she would have won.

Showcase showdowns: OMG! 3 $1,000 winners (2 in the 2nd half and 1 in the 1st half)!

Showcases: yet again on the random room showcase i bid $18,652 and missed it by $37 (another DSW for me!) And them trailer are soooo tricky.

Overall: It was an okay show.

And of course, every single contestant who's ever been on the the show has memorized that price.  Uh huh.  And while we're at it, why not blame Kimberly for losing Half Off, since it was so obvious that the $10,000 was in box #4.

...yeah.  Your holding these contestants to ridiculous expectation, Southy.

Maybe Steve can check this one, but wasn't the Lob-Ster $868 in the past?

No you didn't.  You can't know where the money is.

Oh, get over yourself.  Not everyone memorizes the prices.  Hell, I've watched the show every day since the end of Season 27, and I didn't know that.

It was for a long time, but it changed sometime in the last two years.

Barbra seemed to be pretty confident (I use that term loosly) that the first number of the Jeep was 6. I wish that she would have won. After all she's watched Bob on Truth or Consequences all her life. And did anyone notice that this was the final playing of Hit Me?

Yes--in the Pricing Games Notes and the Season Timeline in the FAQ, there is mention of this.  By now, it's common knowledge on this site.


Also, I do realize that if you're watching a re-run of this on TV, it's probably okay to recap it no matter how much later it is, but since it hasn't aired since April; however, isn't this part of the forums you're not suppose to resurrect after 30 days?

Well, Mr. Higgins is a new member and he is technically updating this thread with information that nobody posted in this thread since October 16, 2006, even though Hit Me's retirement was discussed in another thread months ago.  So, technically he did not do anything wrong.  Here's that rule in the Rules and Regulations of this forum:

6. Do not resurrect threads that have not had a reply in more than 30 days. Exceptions to this rule will be made for new members that have relevant information to add to the discussion, or for existing members when the thread discusses a future event that has since occurred. Also, this requirement does not apply to discussions in our Pricing Game Review sections -- which may be replied to at any time.
