Just realized something

At this point in time, anyone who'd been a contestant when Bob was hosting is now eligible to be on the show again as per the ten year rule. Provided they're still alive and haven't reappeared already in the meantime, of course.

That is correct...even if it includes someone who was on in the 90s, and came back when the rule change was first announced around 2007-08, and then came back on for a third time right about now. Now, THAT would be an interesting sight to see.

There was one late last season who lost Money Game both times around.

If I remember correctly, partway through her second playing, you could see Drew realizing why she'd lost on the first one.

Before the 10 year rule, wasn't it limited to one appearance per person?

Live for the present.  Embrace the future.  Our favorite game show is still producing excellent, high quality, exciting, hour-long* shows every weekday throughout its traditional season window.  It’s as good as it’s been in a long, long time.  If the 1980s were the ‘good ole days’ for the Barker era, so is RIGHT NOW for the Carey era.  Don’t worry about what the future holds.  It will play out in due time.  Enjoy what we have right in front of us in the meantime!
