Also, if they're gonna retire 3 Strikes because it takes too long, then they need to look into retiring Hole in One.

No.  They don't.  They really, really don't.

So then why would you want Hole in One retired?  

If 3 Strikes gets retired, that would be bad enough.  Let's not give anyone ideas.

The video for the China trip to Shanghai showed 3 scenes, 2 of which are in Beijing, not Shanghai.

Absolutely great show.

No.  They don't.  They really, really don't.
I think catdogwheel meant something like "3 Strikes and Hole in One takes about the same time to play.  If they're going to retire 3 Strikes simply because it is long, then isn't it logical to conclude that Hole in One, which takes about the same time to play, should also be retired?"  It's in the Bag (or as Drew believes, In the Bag) also takes about as long as those two games.  catdogwheel isn't saying he wants any of those games to be retired, but if one game is retired simply because of its length then shouldn't other games of equal or greater length make sense to be retired, in the minds of the staff?

Of course, I don't want to see any retired.

I can't believe that no one at Price realizes that Three Strikes has always been an exciting game in the form it has been played for past many years.  They should leave it alone instead of trying to "fix" it.  :-x

It seems the game sometimes takes as long as some others (hole in one, Golden Road) but they still play them.  It would probably help the legnth of the game a little if Drew would hurry them along a little.

If they drop Three Strikes (or even continue to play it under the brand new 'improved' rules...ugh!) mark it down as a big loss to Price Is Right.

Switch?: Good move and Good win.

3 Strikes: We're back to one strike in the bag....Nice. 1st number still given for free....Whatever. I applaud Rosario for such great playing and another great win. If they even think about retiring this game (Please Don't!!!!), It will be just sad.

Cliff: Great too see this one back, too. The setup was just too obvious. Another great win.

Squeeze: Maybe I would've took out the 7, too. Four-in-a row!!! :-D

Grocery: I probably not took a chance on the Gold Bond lotion, but at least Arthur dodged the obviously-overpriced Ester-C and now we have 5 wins.  :-D

TTM: Uh-Oh  :-o :-o :-o Anybody feel are chances at a "Perfecto" has just been dashed? Beverly took a chance (and so did I) on number 7.....AND IT WORKED!!!!!! WE HAVE A PERFECTO!!!!!! :-D :oldlol: ;) :-) PERFECT SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Showcases: That Ford Flex looked almost like a Honda SUV. I figured it would be at least $35K (the car alone). Time to study another price.

Who knew one year after Drew first aired show that the same result would be repeated in a more natural way.

Another wonderful show this week. WIll we see two more?

A 5-STAR SHOW!!!!!! (YIPPEEE!!!!!!!!) :hammer: :pint: :)

Switch:  Good job! :-)
3 Strikes:  What a great win! :-D  Would've been an even better win if Rosario wouldn't have gotten that strike.
Cliff Hangers:  Nice to see the yodelly guy return! :-)  Good win, too! :-)
Squeeze Play:  YES!!  THE CURSE IS BROKEN!! :-D
Grocery Game:  I wasn't sure the way he started, but Arthur pulled it off! :-)
That's Too Much:  Someone actually won this game! 8-O  Can you believe it?  I was having "the big one" over it!
Showcases:  I figured the Ford Flex would be expensive, but not as expensive as Larry thought it was!

Not only was the curse broken, but with a perfect show, it was broken BIG TIME! :-D  AWESOME!! :-D  :-D

Switch?-Easy win to start out the day.

3 Strikes-That's right, it IS a great game, Drew.  And we got a winner at that!

Cliffhangers-Hurray, perfect 1st half!  That was easy.

Squeeze Play-YES!  We finally got a 4th winner!  The losing streak is broken!  That was pretty tough, too.

Grocery Game-At first, I was thinking that 2 cough drops wasn't going to be enough, but it was perfect!  Arthur played the game really well.

Can it be?  Can we go from constant 3 for 6 days to the unthinkable...?

That's Too Much-YES!  Perfect show!  I actually groaned when I saw this game.  A perfect show to be sealed with a That's Too Much win--plain awesome.  That was actually pretty easy, too.
