[KENYATTA]

Well that was a very nice surprise in the 2nd showcase..I thought that the 4 trips was the big showcase but to add a Lincoln in the end.  Wow imagine tomorrow!!!

[Richie]

This was definitely an exciting show.

Triple Play: The Chevy Aveo and Jeep were easy for Carleen, but the Mustang Convertible was a different story.  When she chose $27,912......the Triple Play had been denied.  Most of us in chat thought $22,000.  This setup was NOT that bad...except for the fact that Carleen chose the wrong option on the last one and overpriced a Mustang Convertible.

Clock Game: Craig played this game to a T.  Great job!

Grand Game: VERY Easy for Shirley.  Bob let her reveal the last one herself.  

Easy as 1-2-3: This was HARD!!!!  Most of us in chat said Picnic first, Luggage second, Dinette third.  The Luggage was most expensive?!  Roger obviously wanted this lost---UGH!  Tough break for Mai.

Money Game: Very easy for Rose Ann.  Gets an exacta!

Coming or Going: Consensus of chat said GOING, so was the Peanut Gallery.  Dominic goes and wins a piano!

Showcases: BOTH showcases were on STEROIDS!  
Craig's bid didn't cover the ski boat.

Rose Ann's bid only covered the Orlando trips and the Lincoln, but not the San Paolo and Berlin trips.  

It came down to whomever garfed the least---Rose Ann WINS!  Almost $100,000 in cash and prizes today---nice haul!

Guys, I will NOT be able to be in chat tomorrow...I have work all day tomorrow so I will miss Barker's final Bow...but this had been a great season overall.  You guys are great as always.  See you guys next season.

[baymonster]

Ah, last show before the grand finale:

The TRIPLE PLAY!!: Should not have been lost!

Clock Game: Pretty good.

Grand $ Game: That was sorta easy.

Easy as 123: Tough.

Money Game: A one-shot win for a Magnum?!

Coming or Going: Obvious choice wins here.

SC's: Those were unusually loaded!  Big day for Rose Ann!

So let me see here, a good show today.  The "big three" were all lost (they weren't easy to begin with) this final week, not good, but with the final day a coming, I wouldn't be surprised if they all were played tomorrow!  Later.

[RobertSearcy]

Triple Play:  I woulda blown this one on the 1st car.  I was thinking Roger was being a lil' evil and making the Aveo $13K.  But, Carleen, that Mustang isn't *that* expensive gal.

Clock Game:  That's just how you play this game.  See Sly, John among others who've played this game well.

Eazy:  WHAT?!??!?!?  Is that luggage hiding gold inside or somethin?!?!

Showcase #2:  What the........that Lincoln just came outta nowhere.  It caught EVERYONE in the chat off guard today.

Overall:  A good show today.

[heelsrule1988]

Yet another contestant to get tripped up by the Mustang. Roger knew there'd be a loss on that one.

WHOA! Biggest surprise ever! I don't think I was the only one to submit a bid to Tom early during that Showcase.

HOTTIES: #315, Mai; #316, Ashley
BEST CONTESTANT OF THE DAY: Shirley
SHOW GRADE: 3

[MrDeePay]

It seems like The Dob wanted to give away those three cars, but Carleen just said, "No thanks, I don't want them."  Really, Triple Play was practically set up for a win (or at least I thought it was) and she blew it.

On another note, what still with people trying out values over $999 in Clock Game.  Today's playing wasn't bad, but still.

[Footix]

My thoughts:
Triple Play: That was a win for me. I've only gotten back into watching religiously over the last month and a half (done school + looking for a job), but as soon as I saw the Mustang I immediately thought "23000."
Grand Game: Something tells me they were looking for a win today. That was a reasonably easy setup.
1-2-3: I would've done the exact same thing. Clearly I'm suffering from dinette syndrome.
Coming or Going: If there's a 5 up there, is it ever not the last digit?
Showcases: Wow, that was a total surprise. I lowballed both of these.

[tpirfan165]

i can't say much, considering the fact i missed the first half as well as SCSD #1...and i unfortunatly didn't catch the opening and grand entrance ( i really don't like it when i miss that)


Coming or Going: Wow! despite the fact that he listened to the peanut gallery (sometimes that would result in a loss...other times it's just the contestant going against them) and he gets the piano

[thewhammy_2000]

Triple Play: Okay, let's make this a good one. I acutally like this intro of contestant and audience better than Plinko. For the Mustang, I held up the two fingers from each hand, representing the $22,150. When Carleen said $27,912. I was in complete silence. And I think that's how this game ends for the season.

Clock Game: Craig played well, but for some reason I get this notion that those that go over the $1000 mark sometimes start with $1200 and work their way down. Why can't they understand that the price does not go over $1000, even if it is the second to last episode of the season, I'll never know.

Grand Game: Why did this game feel like a cakewalk? Just avoid the supplements, and you will be in the green.

Eazy az 123: NOT!!
I just did not think the Pathfinder, the luggage set, would be that much. Kinda makes you think about More or Less a little, huh? Once again, the term Pathfinder has caught me in a trap!

Money Game: Three Exactas in a week? We got some good players here!

Coming or Going: Kinda makes me feel how the fate of the show is going to be this summer...
After seeing that 95, I knew exactly what to do. I'm a little surprised that Dominic was clueless and desperate to win that piano.

Showcases: I was expecting something related to Bob in the Priceness Showcase and was a little sad there wasn't. I'm sure Bob Barker has set at least one kind of world record. I figured Craig bidded too low. I would've said around 24000 (I would've underbidded also, but still win). For time purposes, I skimmed the Every Trip Showcase end set the DVD to Play at the end of it...or at least I thought. When I saw that Lincoln, something came out in great surprisement. If I was on stage and that was my Showcase, I would have done something to my clothes. . I would've said 48000 on this Showcase. Rose Ann's win, in my opinion, certainly made up for the Triple Play loss. Also, this makes me think this is one of the top five biggest daytime wins if not the second biggest.

The Price is Right Game #6730

Triple Play's Chevrolet Aveo, Rachel's cars
This is not only Rachel's 3,000th prize, but it is also a car!  Not only that, Rachel is the only current model not to have a modeling total less than $10,000, and she still holds the record for longest string of shows with at least one car, which is 24 episodes.  The current string of shows where Rachel has modeled at least one car is 15 episodes, Monday's motorhome counts as a vehicle.

Shane Stirling Semi-Memorial Hyper Expensive Showcase Round

Showcase #1: Priceness Book of World Records
Dahon Helios - $599
Wurlitzer Jukebox - $8,995
Reinell 200LSE, and it's the first one in 2007. - $28,207, and it last appeared on December 21 with some parkas, which are actually $730.

Showcase #2:  Every Trip (and a Lincoln) in the House for 23 nights
Last things first, prize #3,007, the Lincoln Town Car Signature's price is $42,900.

Trip to Orlando - $5,110
Trip to Sao Paolo - $8,653
Trip to Berlin - $8,966

Before we move on to Shanghai, it looks like we did not offer any beer steins this season, and just for the record, they were $640 and last modeled by Starr Campbell on January 18, 2005.  So any time you see beer steins, it's automatic trip to Germany.  There were no steins in Season 34 either.

Now, the price of the trip to Shanghai - $6,542, and that Radisson hotel has appeared twice before, both in showcases which have two trips each (November 29 with a Paris Hyatt and January 11 with Rio).

Modeling Report Card for June 14, 2007

Yes, Gabrielle continues to climb for the sixth show in a row!  She's at $75,647, as for Rachel:
[color=006600]!!! $102,133 !!![/color][/size]

This is the ninth six-digit modeling total this season and Rachel's third for the season and tenth overall!

Will there be yet another six-digit modeling total, and is it more than $127,516?  Tune in tomorrow night, and you'll find out.

Once again, four more GPs and 25 prizes total $224,244!

[KENYATTA]

Actually that was the 2nd biggest win in daytime history but again there's tomorrow!!

[Mangioninc]

2nd biggest by all of $1,300 or so, if I recall correctly. The $97,130 or so winner came during Price 6000.

Deathly curious as to if the $147,000 record will be broken tomorrow. I'll at least take a six-digit winner.

[PimpinJC]

Triple Play-Ouch, the evil Mustang trips up yet another contestant.  I knew it would be $22K; too bad Carleen didn't.

Clock Game-We have a player here!  Can't get much better than that.

Grand Game-A nice, easy win to finish out the 1st half.

Eazy az 1 2 3-Forced loss.  I don't think anyone thought the luggage would be the most expensive.

Money Game-Hmmm, the setup was a bit different in the fact that the choices for the 1st 2 numbers weren't all in a row (for example: 22, 23, 24).  Oh well, it didn't matter.  Roae Ann played this game perfect!

Coming or Going-A nice, easy win to end the day.

Showcases-Yay, we get to see the rare Every Trip in the House showcase.  WHAT, and a Lincoln to go with it?  Surprise of the Century!  Hmmm, this season has sure had some big winners with Ann in their name.  

Sigh, all that remains now is Bob's last show.  It's hard to believe that after 50 years on television, his very last show will air tomorrow.  With all the excitement and prizes we've seen this week, I can hardly imagine what's in store for tomorrow!

[Brent]

I've been once again watching the last couple of weeks(I've been a casual viewer for years, watching for weeks at a time and then taking months long breaks). I watched for about 2 months from December-February. Anyway, about today...

I knew as soon as Carleen picked $27,000 she had lost. Too bad  since I think it was setup for a win(along with everything minus Easy as 1-2-3 which was evil).

Great playing of Clock Game.

YAY for Money Game being exact! 2nd day in a row a car price was right on the first guesses.

The Lincoln in the 2nd showcase also shocked me big time, I didn't see that coming at all.

Can't believe tomorrow is the last show. I am really sad despite not having been a religious watcher like most everyone here. I plan to watch all the repeats this summer(and as long as they continue) to catch up on as many episodes as I can.
