The Price is Right: The Barker Era on Pluto TV

[holdme]

So the episodes skipped in this batch were

5431
5444
5462
5472
5503
5504
5505
5512

correct?

Correct, however we do know that all of the skipped episodes besides 5512D are in the Pluto database, so we should see those later, most likely in some marathon.

Of all the episodes run, only the One Away premiere episode is known to be a fully skipped episode, perhaps due to unorthodox reasons. Fortunately, it circulates from its original broadcast.

From what I understand, one of the showcases in that episode had a highly questionable theme.

Same question I had … is this episode blocked on YouTube? Should give an indication of whether it could air in the future, such as a marathon.

That's a recap of the episode. The second Showcase is the one SuperMatch93 is referring to.

Here it is, currently an "unlisted" episode.

Yep. As soon as I saw the recap, I knew.

I'm sure we'll see the second playing of One Away in a future batch of episodes.

P.S. – I wonder if this was the least expensive car ever offered in One Away? (That, even knowing that cars were still selling at $7,000 on the low end in 1984-1985.)

I acknowledge that I'm ignoring the part that's actually in poor taste, but an Atilla the Hun pinball machine would not be a "timely" prize, given that Atilla the Hun ruled more than a century after the time period depicted in the showcase.

I do get a laugh whenever someone doesn't put much, if any, effort toward the reaction off of their showcase prizes.  Never forgot about a contestant bidding $1 on a showcase she wasn't thrilled about (per her reaction) when her opponent didn't even bid an amount close to where it was clearly obvious he went over (which he didn't).

As for One Away, as mentioned in Discord, they'll probably show clips of the second playing with a mention of the game debuting in 1984.  I don't think they'd show the first playing without airing the entire episode.  It's not worth it

I don't see what's stopping them from posting the debut playing, by itself, to the YouTube channel.

After reading that... I can see why they would want to skip that one.

In fact, after seeing these older ones so far on Pluto, I can see why the show eventually went in a more "family-friendly" direction. A lot of stuff (certain showcase skits, most of Bob's comments, etc.) wouldn't fly today.

I dug through the chat logs and figured out where that's from. It's from 4625D during Clock, shortly after the reveal of a camping trailer.
Would have been absolutely perfect if it had been in response to a Splendido-case.

Coming out of hiding to ask this question about music cues. It seems as if some of the 1983 package heard on these shows is different than what we can hear on TVPMM. The version of 0209 we're hearing in these episodes is a great example. It sounds far more percussion-heavy and has different orchestration in places than the TVPMM versions.


We know TVPMM is missing certain versions of the 1976 package (the Second Thoughts rhythm-only variants, for example). Is it possible they're missing some '83 edits, as well, or am I just hearing equalization differences?
