Aye-yay-yah-yah-yah! Just when we were shaping up to have good results on the Punchboard, we learned she bailed out too soon. But not everyone is that contestant from 1992 (who gave back $5,000 and got $10,000 in return), and $5,000 is still a nice chunk of change. (And hey, $1,000 isn't bad either).

I say Tammy did the right thing by keeping the $5,000. With all the luck that's been going around TPiR land lately, those could have easily been $50 slips in those next two holes.

One Away:  I was stunned to find out that Kelsey had lost! 8-O
Grocery Game:  Nicely done! :-)
That's Too Much:  One price too soon - curses! :-(
Punch A Bunch:  $5,000 is a good haul and yet it's sad to know Amanda could've had $10,000 if she'd went for it.

Not too bad an end to the week, IMHO.

I wonder if the backdrops used for the Mazda 3 in That's Too Much will be any indication of what The New Any Number will look like when it debuts in about two  and a half weeks.  When I first saw those backdrops, a zebra or Oreo cookies came to mind.

The odds of drawing something higher than 5k on 2 punches (after the first one) is 8%, and anyways the general rule is bail on 5k no matter what. It just happens once in a great while it doesn't quite work out, we can be thankful it wasn't 25 yet.
S5x... the show's stabilized into something decent now, I guess...

Drew's reveal during punchy today with the 5k was very bob barker like with the build up. Hopefully one day we will see the 25k slip.

Was it just me, or did those backdrops (aside from the coloring) look exactly like the ones they always used to use in Switch?

I find it ironic how the show tries to mix up the prizes and offer "cool" things like over-stuffed trips and impossible to price items to make the show less "predictable." Yet, the same things happen every single time a show airs.

Those backdrops have been used since roughly the debut of the current (soon-to-be replaced) Any Number board, and their flipside has been used for two prize games and other games, such as Line em Up and Barker's Marker$/Make Your Mark over the years.

even tho we had some close loses, today was a great show!!
 
wow punch-a-bunch today was the best one i've seen since they switched to $25,00 being the top prize! i would've stopped too but that would've been exciting if she had wen't on!!!

im very glad TTM is getting fairer set-ups now!! i would've won because i knew the car was 20k plus!!

Boy oh Boy Virginia and Bryon were "two geniuses" weren't they?  Thank God neither made the Showcase.

Part 1:  I somehow got a sinking feeling that the "5" was correct.  But she played it textbook.  Just wasn't her day.

Part 2:  THINKING CHALLENGED PEOPLE in the middle of the row unite!!  Unable-Unwilling to think for themselves, Tammy puts them both out of their misery for now.  Tammy, great job blocking out the idiots.  You never, ever $1 someone if you arent the last bidder in the sequence.  And Tammy, the TPIR God's will reward you for your great community service.   :-D  She won a VERY EASY Most Expensive Set-Up.

Part 3:  God protects babies and fools.  How Bryon won Grocery Game-Revenge of the Turtles is beyond me. :evil:

Showcase Showdown Uno:  Tammy or Kelsey, please come forward.

Part 4:  Virginia got what was coming to her.

Part 5:  A "fair set up" in That's Too Much.  Another great contestant,  but it just wasn't her lucky day.

Part 6:  The Contestant of the Day in my opinion.  I'm glad she hit 5k in Punch-A-Bunch.  The 10k slip popping up was horrible luck.  She played it "textbook savvy" by stopping at 5k.

Showcase Showdown Dos:  Anybody but Virginia, please.

Showcases:  THE TPIR GOD'S REWARD TAMMY.  THE TPIR GOD'S LIKE IT WHEN YOU "BLOCK OUT AN IDIOT".

Good show today, Drew was excellent, especially in Punch a Bunch

But not everyone is that contestant from 1992 (who gave back $5,000 and got $10,000 in return

I believe that was actually 1995 or 1996  :-)

"If you're scared, buy a dog."

That was the first thing that popped into my head after that playing of Punch-a-Bunch. Actually, this is one of the most memorable playings of this game I've seen in quite a while.

Actually, I would've bailed after picking that slip myself. The odds are against the contestant when they pick the $5k slip.

Good golly, That's too Much! was winnable again:-D

I see they've started using the jib camera to shoot Most Expen$ive.  It makes the logo look a lot better.

Closing Door #4 after Double Prices was lost was a nice touch.

It was nice to see some old prize backdrops come back during That's Too Much!, but I don't think I like what they did to them...it looked like they created negatives of them or something.

Props to Kathy for making both That's Too Much! and most of Punch a Bunch's small prizes winnable.

Speaking of Punch a Bunch...man, was that a heartbreaker.  Totally the right decision, but still...that has to hurt.

Who the hell is Samantha Brown, and why did her showcase only have two trips?  (I know that's nothing new, but no matter how many times they try it, it doesn't work.)

And Tammy, the TPIR God's will reward you for your great community service.   :-D  She won a VERY EASY Most Expensive Set-Up.

Part 3:  God protects babies and fools.  How Bryon won Grocery Game-Revenge of the Turtles is beyond me. :evil:

I have a hard time believing there are any gods that would spend this much time focusing on The Price Is Right.

Yep - I always remember them from Clock Game.  I thought those things had been long since destroyed.
They can be close at the top, too.
