That's Too Much is on one of these massive droughts of futility , now at 26 losses in a row and counting ( daytime )

[Jfrankzac]

When was the last time That’s To Much was won? Is it the longest losing streak of any game played? I think it is the second hardest car game to win besides 3 Strikes. Why is That’s to Much so much harder to win in resent years?

Just for your information THE PRICE IS RIGHT AT NIGHT tonight’s episode was a repeat from last year.

[SeaBreeze341]

The game hasn't been won since its first playing a season ago

[Flerbert419]

When was the last time That’s To Much was won? Is it the longest losing streak of any game played?

That's Too Much! is on a 26 game losing streak dating back to last season. If we ignore that Plinko has never truly been won, Punch a Bunch is currently on a 35 game losing streak and Triple Play hasn't been won in almost 4 years.

[b_masters8]

And Grand Game had another early loss as well, with the player winning $100; early losses, IMO, are far easier to take than losses at the $1000 level, being that at $1, $10 or $100, you get that amount if you're wrong, but at $1000, you lose everything if you're wrong.

That’s a good question. There are ten prices for the game, but the first two and last two are hardly ever the right price, leaving six prices to choose from. Randomly picking one of those six, you would get a winner around 17% of the time. I would have to look at the stats, but I’m guessing most people stop earlier rather than later. Much like card game, people get impatient and stop too early.

[crazypackersfan]

If it wasn't for Drew's hilarious "they always say 'one more'" quote that always cracks me up, I would like to see the That's Too Much game board in a landfill. It's a terrible game. No one ever wins it. I don't vouch for retiring games, except in this case. Please shoot That's Too Much into the sun.

Swap Meet still looks like it's stuck in the early nineties. Don't retire it; rather, update the props so they don't look as dated.

I love that they use Pocky! If they were selling it at an anime convention, it would have been way higher than $5.50!

[GuyWithFace]

Small recap correction: the ARP of Showcase #2 is also listed as the difference for Showcase #1. The difference should be $2,089.

On another note, Bonkers really should not have been lost.

[rowlande]

Shopping Spree and Line Em Up looks stuck in the 90s as well

Agreed!

very few people use this strategy for "That's Too Much!" Without the tough Drill Sargent voice that Bob used to encourage the contestants to use one the "That's Too Much" price was reached, the game lacks any real excitement and often hurts a show because of its loss record.
