The Price is Right: The Barker Era on Pluto TV

[ayoung]

Hi. Anyone know who is this young lady sitting right behind the contestants row on the right at the end?  She has short brown hair wearing nice outfits. Maybe she's the relative or friend of the crew cause she's on almost every episode in the 1983-4 season.

And not just in the 1983-84 season, she was doing this as early as I believe sometime during Season 7 (I'm not sure when she officially joined the staff), as when GSN ran the Season 8 and 9 episodes on Tuesdays, she was there.

I think we're at the point where a Christmas marathon announcement will be forthcoming, perhaps late this week into the weekend or by no later than a week from Monday at the latest, but as to how many times the Christmas episodes will be skipped in the regular cycle before resuming normally remains unknown.

As per social media, it turns out there is a Christmas marathon coming this Saturday, but it will be limited to Christmas Week 1983 episodes, to be supposedly reran repeatedly throughout the day.

So does this mean the 1982 episodes are gone from the Pluto schedule?

[SeaBreeze341]

Maybe not; if so, it's unrelated IMO.  Just no big need to air 1982 shows on Saturday

Not sure if there's a reason why, but they jumped from 5214D (2/23/84) clear to 5264D (3/29/84) at 6am this morning.

[blozier2006]

And they seem to be in a holding pattern, since this morning at 6am they went from 5313D (5/2/84) to 5264D (3/29/84) again. Everything from 6am to noon today was an exact repeat of 6am to noon yesterday.

I'm not sure what exactly happened but I'm guessing there was a glitch for reasons unknown after the Christmas marathon was announced. Probably in the next cycle they will rectify the situation.

Probably next month or in February (depending on when more Season 13 episodes on YouTube are taken down) is when we'll get fresh new episodes, but exactly how they'll roll the batch out is unknown.

[blozier2006]

To anyone else here who tracks these things... in prior showings of the 3/10/83 show [4834D], has it gone to commercial in the middle of Penny Ante? I ask since it did so on the 12/15/21 4am showing, which I'm in the middle of editing as I type this. If this was a one-time thing, I'll just try to get it again on this next loop, but if this is a regular issue with this episode, no need to bother.

Her appearance happened a few years later than where Pluto is in their episodes right now, but would they possibly do a special showing of the 1988 episode where Betty White makes a guest appearance?

^ I seriously doubt it... though I'd love to be proven wrong.

I just got hit with a youtube copyright email (ContentID match) for a February '85 show.  This usually precedes a takedown, which precedes the eps coming. 

Soon.

I also got a YouTube content ID match for an October '84 show.

Soon indeed.

[FanOfDrew87]

^ Was the aforementioned October 1984 show the October 16, 1984 episode that got taken down?

In either event, this is a sure sign that fresh episodes are looming.

My upload of the October 30, 1984 episode is still in tact and I dont have any copyright notices for my channel. I wonder if that means they’ll be skipping that episode.
