$26,250.



*ding*

tpir04, here is your showcase!

George: Your showcase contains prizes revealed as we take a look at a house from the future... as we would from 1973.

First, Janice wants to listen to all her favorite modern hits. She finally can with this new stereo system!




From Denon, the D-M41 micro desktop stereo system fits great for any compact room in the house. Play CDs, listen to the AM/FM radio or stream music with its Bluetooth technology. It also includes a subwoofer for low-frequency sound effects.

Next, what good is a house from the future if you don't want to preserve some memories? That's what Antria wants to know, so she's picking up this camcorder!




From Sony, the FDR-AX100 Digital 4K Ultra HD Camcorder shoots videos at 30 frames per second and also comes four high-tech recording options. It also features 12x optical zoom and 24x clear image zoom, and it can take 20MP images for a professional home video feel.

Finally, Anitra and Janice want to preserve the future so they can preserve their house. Both have already thought ahead with this new hybrid car!




A brand new 2020 Ford Fusion Hybrid Titanium! With its 43 MPG highway/41 MPG city, it fits your lifestyle while helping you commit your duty for a cleaner environment. It comes with standard features including a 2.0-Liter engine, six-speed automatic transmission, an AM/FM HD radio and 19” machined-face aluminum wheels.

And this showcase as we show you the future from 46 years ago can be yours if The Price is Right!


Me: Look those prizes over, tpir04, and please give me your bid on the showcase.

Gosh, I don't have a clue. I guess a flat $20K for the Ford, but that's as far as I know.

$26,595 I suppose.

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!

Great show, Patrick! Yeah, that first showcase was a bit tough, which is why I passed. I'm suprised that the Fusion was 34K, though. I couldn't decide whether it was one of those uber expensive ones, or a dirt cheap model, so I went low.

Great show! I enjoyed your theming and hosting style. Clock Game and Double Digits were bold choices for HYOs, definitely a nice change of pace.

Loved the retro graphics.

"The sign of a good game, is when you don't have to explain it every day. The key is not simplicity, but apparent simplicity. Password looks like any idiot could have made it up, but we have 14 of our people working on that show. There is a great complexity behind the screen. It requires great work to keep it simple."
