Paul Boland, best known for the voice over work on the 1998-1999 version of " Match Game " with host Michael Berger, was the stand-in announcer for Rod on this show.
Okay show, I only got one thing to say about the first three bids in contestant's row in segment 1: WEIRD !
This show marked to second-to-last time that the Plinko sign was used in the introduction, should've never gotten rid of it.
The most exciting moment in this show is when Frankie won his truck in Any Number.
Very nice to see the TPiR Train Depot eventhough it got passed over to the runner up ( Surprise Surprise ) and an electric motorcar as the major prize, COOL !
I've heard a little while back that an actual automobile was the major prize in a train depot showcase back in the late eighties, early ninties, is that true ?
I wonder how they did that, they certainly couldn't used one of the flat cars to transport it. That electric motorcar was probably a no-brainer, probably just rolled it onto the flatcar while getting ready for show backstage.
Lisa Gleave, semi-regular Barker's Beauty from 2002-2003 and Claudia would reunite three years later to model on " Deal or no Deal " together and I remember Claudia back then saying that she was rooting for Lisa to be signed on to permanent Barker's Beauty if the producers were doing a model search.
She and Lisa were great friends off-camera and I'm pretty sure they still keep in touch to this day.
Pennelope, the other model on this show, would not return until the beginning of Season 32, which kicked off in September 2003 and she only stayed with the show that first week and was replaced by either Shane or Rachel ( who made her debut at the very end of season 31 and still continues on today,
8 1/2 years later ) the following week.
