The Price Is Right Thailand (Current version confirmed?)

[jaydlewis]

Is the American Price is Right popular, or even on TV, in Thailand?

I think about 50/50.
If they like gameshow they loved it!
But if they not they will just thinking that "It's just a TV show".

By the way I will have a Gameshow Marathon Season 5 (Lightning Twist) this October.
So you can find out more at my facebook fanpage "Game Show Gags Thailand" for more details.

That doesn't really answer Jay's question at all.

My interpretation of that post is that overall popularity is split between the two versions, implying that the American version does indeed air there; it's a matter of personal taste -- if they (the viewers) like game shows, then they likely love both versions of the show. Likewise, average viewers just see it (the American version) as they would any other show.

Perhaps I'm wrong. More clarity is greatly appreciated, although it's apparent that English is not your primary language, so I understand if translating what you are attempting to convey is challenging. However, it's equally challenging for the rest of us to read and understand your translations

Watching this version just brings home how pathetically cheap the last Australian version was with respect to its pricing game props.  A lot of them looked like something a fan could slap together at home, whereas these Thai ones look like proper games that belong on TV.

I think our version of the Big Wheel will soon replace the scoreboard with a monitor to display the totals in the same font as the wheel.  They did it, while it would completely be unnecessary for our version to do it, I can see it happening.  Change for the sake of change.

Let me just make sure I have this straight -- you're criticizing a change that hasn't happened and only even exists in your head?

I wouldn't worry about switching the Big Wheel's scoreboard to an LCD display. They can replicate readouts with custom fonts and animation (see One Bid displays).

...which, I might add, considering the amount of time and effort required to do something like that, is quite silly.
