Speaking of changes......what prompted the Purple border around CR before and into Tom's run for a bit? Anyone know?
Not exactly sure; I guess the staff was going for an 80s look for CR. IMO, that Pink (Neon or whatever) had an 80s feel to it.
I liked it, but at the same time I didn't. The green was okay, maybe they could gone with sky blue or turquoise.
FTFY.
Thanks...and sorry about that! I meant to make that change but forgot (I did like that version actually and found myself loving & missing it upon a re-watch in the 90s).
At least eight Pricing Games that were played on the Kennedy series were physically altered in some form or fashion while that version was in production -- Danger Price, Golden Road, Grocery Game, Most Expensive, Pick a Pair, Range Game, Safe Crackers, and Switcheroo. Another, Grand Game, received its "Ten Thousand" and "Ten Thousand Dollars" graphics during this period.
Plus Card Game. I knew about Danger Price, Safe Crackers, etc. Wasn't sure about Most Expensive but I thought that was done earlier, might have been before they broke for the holidays. Lucky Seven was later after all of those, I believe.
No worries about the CBS Curtains. I guess we'll find out for sure in a month or two
With the show being on the air for nearly half a century (not counting the original version of course), some might not get into the win total (no one here on the boards) just outside casual fans. For me, seeing someone win over $15,000 in Season 11 is still exciting. Especially one woman who won big in her showcase (4761D I believe). It just aired over the past 8 hours.
That was probably one of, if not the most excited I've ever seen a contestant. I've seen people rush to their cars or whatever was included in the showcase, but those occurred later on in the Barker Era. I don't remember seeing that happen that early. No one came from the studio audience to celebrate, but she ran from her podium to her showcase in about 1-2 seconds after Bob signed off. That was great to see!
