Fireball! It figures you'd comment on this one after your famous comments on Joseph :)
S5x... the show's stabilized into something decent now, I guess...

Laurie was very annoying. Take your job of bidding seriously when you're called to come on down or let someone else play.

Another painful 10 Chances...I doubt they'll ever just tell people the 0 rule, but maybe they should consider it.


I liked the '57 Chevy...and a nice win for it in Roll.

2nd place, 2011 CSS playoffs.     QSW, 3/27/17, 1/15/18. Exacta, 5/14/21.

Might I add: 10 Chances was, once again, played terribly.  The door closing to hide the car was a nice touch, though.

I liked that too. Bye Rachel and the sweet looking Challenger.  :-(


I hope I don't sound rude, but I pretty much felt Laurie took a valuable spot from someone who would seriously try to win (agreeing with Hag).


I'm pretty sure that it's because of the game's timing, but it's ridiculous that Secret "X" has been the small prize game played most often this season (so far - am I correct?). We've seen Plinko less often (am I'm not a big Plinko fan), Bonus Game once, and Shell Game not at all, if I have my facts right.

Seriously, Mike, this picking contestants by their picture thing isn't working. What exactly did you see in stoner Laurie? Or the Secret X contestant? Or Mr. Urkel, who I assume got called only because of his name? Yes, today was one of those shows where I was just laughing by the end at how ridiculous it was, but that really shouldn't be happening on The Price Is Right. People like Laurie are not good for the show. They only take a seat away from someone who actually wants to be there and not act stupid.

That off my chest, gameplay-wise today wasn't that bad, aside from the debacle in 10 Chances that is becoming all too normal now. If they're going to keep offering these vintage expensive cars, they should really try to make them harder to win somehow though, because they really drain the budget and they're not very practical.

Danger Price 4 times in 8 weeks! Now there's one game I don't mind seeing get an increase in play.

Timings:
Let 'em Roll (5.5) - 4:31
Coming Or Going (3.5)- 3:52
Danger Price (4.5) - 4:05
Pick A Number (3.5) - 3:17
10 Chances (6) - 5:37
Secret X (4.5)- 5:06
Total time (27.5): 26:28

What was wrong with her?  I mean, she wasn't the most memorable contestant ever, but few are.  She seemed like a good, if unspectacular contestant.

Let Em Roll - Nice win
Coming or Going - This should've been won
Danger Price - Also should've been won
PA# - Nice win
10 chances - What an idiot! You need to follow the 0 rule!  the car was the only burden about winning.
Secret X - Nice win
3 for 6 today we probably woulda had a perfect show if Steph, Will, and Steve were smart enough.
pepe! It took us all summer to clean out all the skunk stink from seasons 36, 37, 38, 39, and 40!!!

Best part of this show by far, was Amber holding on to that washer and dryer for her life as the price is right train came zooming in. Then trying to model the dryer, it dosnt open.. so she just gives the "screw this" face.

After Laurie raised awareness of all innuendo today, some took offense that she was excited to say "$69" on the first SP.

Coming or Going was a complete crapshot!  How was Stephanie not "smart enough" for not winning that?!

Is that all?  The 69 was thrown in her face!  There's a big, big difference between that and what Laurie was doing.

Look at this.
Thank you for that.  I had no idea what that dingbat was up to. Drew seemed quite amused, though.
Go fellow Buckeye Drew!

She made a bit of an awkward laugh after saying it.

I completely agree Frank that people were worked up and biased after Laurie, by the way. :P

Also, your welcome to the above. That's actually another thing - Drew made more note of this debacle instead of handling Joseph so professionally. Even talked to Jeff about it a bit because he's much more comfortable now than 30 months ago. That did not help matters when even the nuts were sick of it by OB6.

No the only way the situation could have gotten worse was to have a Snoop Dogg and Willie Nelson CD collection or a walk on role for a Woody Harrelson film in the showcase up for bids ;) jk

Well, haha Laurie, like your the first person to do this. You earned no points with the audience and I hope you enjoy your consolation prize for "contestants not appearing on stage."

As for the rest of the show don't get me started on 10 Chances. I said from the moment the numbers were revealed for the luggage that the price was my birthday (920). Well I have a little problem with him not following the zero rule, but not as big a problem as his $200 guesses. Why didn't he realize that this is TPIR not some school fundraiser? It's luggage set, focus your guesses on 6 and $900.

By the way, I must have missed it over this past month, but has Spelling Bee been played yet? I know Shell Game and 3 Strikes(?) haven't and we know that GR is on the way next Friday.
