Diana played Back To '74 surprisingly well , given her 1st two picks ( which were on the low end of the range ) actually helped her win the car with room to spare.
Picking the middle of the range all 3 times during this playing would of been a lost.

[Game Girl]

she really underestimated the cost of some of the 70s items. putting the board game under 10 was a mistake. (my guess with 13 but I would have understood 11 because of inflation calculation weariness) Obviously there is going to be somewhat of a delay for the recap the east coast broadcast basically being pre-empted during in the bag, I really want to know what that weird green apple juice was) I thought the gadget was also under a common sense estimate (would have put 30 knowing kitchen gadgets are pricey) but that one I at least understood the 25 traditionally in price is right being a good in the middle guess. (like on the cliffhanger)

The Harry Potter showcase was beginning ok, nothing much but something until they started talking about the zip lining, that felt shoehorned in. still you can tell they took time to write it and somehow try to make that nonsense prize (in connection to Harry Potter or even stereotypical wizardry) makes sense with broomstick rising.

Recap posted.

Though....I'm pretty sure this is the first time I have had to note a grocery prize being recalled the day before it airs. That was a surprise. If I could actually read Martinelli's, I'd have never looked that up and found out.

Also, I'm thankful they got through the entire Harry Potter showcase without bringing lady of the irritating bigotry.

Regarding that apple juice in It’s in the Bag, my first impression when I saw it was “blecch!” Something about it just looked unappealing to me; how odd it ended up being recalled due to arsenic!

It took me a moment or two, but I recognized the prize cues they used for the vertical broiler and paint kit in Back to ‘74.  This was not so much from classic TPIR eps, though; rather, I recognized them from reruns of Jack Narz eps of Concentration that were airing on Buzzr ~3 yrs ago.  Of course, I know that the Goodson-Todman shows shared a number of music cues, esp TPIR, Concentration, and Now You See It when they were airing concurrently.  Just funny that Back to ‘74 got me thinking about 70s Concentration.

Actually, that apple juice was NOT recalled.  They recalled a single lot of their juices, but (according to the story I found at https://www.yahoo.com/news/certain-bottles-martinelli-apple-juice-181428906.html) they were in 1 Liter bottles, while this was a 10 oz. bottle per the recap.

Plus, in that story it also notes that some amount of it is natural, though this particular batch being high in level may have been from other sources as it noted.
