To be honest, I'm completely fine with the opinion that Cullen Price is better than New Price. You are allowed to call out the current version for being more luck based than the 50s run. If you are willing to debate gracefully that it should be part of the show, then that's up to you. You are allowed to say that the prizes given nowadays are cheaper and less varied than back then. If you are willing to debate gracefully that more varied prizes would better benefit the show, when society in general has become more utilitarian, have at it. In addition, I personally would argue that comparing the nighttime run of Cullen Price isn't a fair comparison to the daytime run of New Price; the more outlandish prizes would have appeared on the nighttime run rather than the daytime run. You are allowed to not like the current version of the One Bid. However, calling it cheating would be similar to saying that winning the Prize Puzzle is cheating on Wheel, just because its existence creates flaw within the game. It is allowed by the rules; thus, it isn't cheating. Whether or not it is a "right" thing to do, on the other hand, is certainly up for debate.
If you want to hold onto those views, that is completely fine. You will be in a very small majority. Just make sure that you don't needlessly hijack threads, saying "Oh, if Cullen were hosting, the abomination known as Drew wouldn't have made the show unwatchable." I'm not saying that to be mean, but I've seen that view expressed time and time again with Barker, and personally, that discussion ends up going nowhere.
