The flashback to 1975 was enjoyable to see. One of the very first hour long shows, too.

Watching Drew chuckle over how he lost control of Ten Chances was amusing. She obviously knew exactly how the game played, tho. Solid win.

I am hesitant to say that. She almost wrote 20,XXX (Twice I believe!), but the audience persuaded her against it.

Great show winning wise today- 5 wins and a good haul in Punch a Bunch!

Did anyone else see that Price's Facebook page spoiled the Lucky $even win a few minutes before it actually aired?

The flashback was really cool. Another very nicely played 10 Chances was great also.

Noticed it on Twitter, then the chat realized FB spoiled it also.

I want to complain on the cheap showcase, but I have nothing to complain about. I could complain more about that Peru trip from earlier this week. Only real complaint is a $100 near a corner in Punch.

Good Show today.
A random Punch away from a Perfect Show.

The Flashback from when Walter was 1st on the show was pretty cool , with Airdate to Boot.
Has there ever been a 10 Chances Playing , where all 10 Chances ended in the Number " 0 " ( Car Win or No Car Win )  ?
We got 9/9 today in that department.

Hot damn what a show! I was hoping we'd get a flashback once Walter mentioned he'd been on the show in 1975, and the show didn't disappoint. What a contestant he was then! He had Bob in stitches. I'd love to see the whole segment. (Looking at you, social media guy.) That "10 year" rule has to be one of the best changes the show has made since Drew took over.

10 Chances was a fantastic segment. I loved how Lizzette just took over and pushed the buttons herself, and played the game perfectly to boot!

I'm surprised that no one is mentioning one of the prizes today....the skee-ball table....which sort of looked like Super Ball a bit

Skee ball tables have been on the show before. But how often do you see an automatic robotic lawn mower with one old-fashioned wheelbarrow included?

[wrikent3500]

Not often...but I was paying attention to the table

10 Chances! One of my favorite games! It was fortunate that the contestant used only 3 chances to win the smaller prizes. Otherwise she might have run out of chances before winning the car.

Very nice Lucky $even win as well. And I too liked seeing the flashback clip.

Amazing show - one of the best of the season. Darn that Punch A Bunch keeping the perfect show away. A Lucky $even win (on a slightly easier than normal setup, but still, such things are rare). A 10 Chances perfect playing with no deviations from the 0 rule. Tesheka put on a clinic on how to play the game. She probably shouldn't have thought the Nissan Sentra was 21k, but that's why the 0 rule is there in that game - it got her out of that trap and gave her enough guesses to get the tricky low car price. And then Tesheka gave what I thought was a DSW-quality bid of 21535. Definitely a loyal friend and true that slipped through the cracks Good stuff.

And oh yeah, a 20-second 1975 Bob clip with audio. Very cool. I hope we will continue to see this periodically as more contestants that were on with Bob continue to revisit the show with Drew.

What would have made Punch a Bunch make a perfect show? $2500 was the largest $$$ that could have been won based on the punches.

Seems like a perfect show to me.

I think they mean if $25,000 was won it would have been perfect NOT $2,500
