Price is Right Recaps! / Re: TPiR Recap - 5/15/2024
« Last post by GameShowKid on Today at 03:08:05 PM »
10 Chances! One of my favorite games! Lucky that Isiah won the drone with just two chances; like Drew, I also was getting worried that he wouldn’t win the auto. Great suspense though in a great game; made for a great win! :-D

If only Craig had listened to the crowd and not his wife, it would've been a different story. And if only Hannah had listened to the crowd instead of her friends, then chances are that this would've been our second perfect show this season

CSS -- Chatroom Showcase Showoff / CSS Results for 05/15/2024 (Game 152)

SC1 had the cheaper Iceland, which with the Mirage limited the SC to under 28. Nate get a high ending hard/soft DSW here, automatically coming with a win.

SC2 had the Maverick again, which is still unfamiliar... I think I overdid it there, because a king bedroom and 86" HDTV should be quite a lot together.

What surprises me is how he hasn't used his exposure at Price to launch another sitcom or do comedy tours all those weeks of the year the show isn't taping, something that would seem to me far more in line with his interests and abilities.

I get the impression he doesn’t want to do any of that and just wants to enjoy life. Dude is in his mid-60s. He occasionally does comedy shows (he was here in Springfield a few years ago for one night only), but he talked a lot about going to music festivals, including EDC, when I was at tapings last month, and hobbies.

The TALK Is Right / Re: Drew vows to stay as host until he dies

Quite a bold statement, Drew.
I wish you luck on that as you continue to carry the torch of TPIR for many years to come.  :wink:

What's wrong with George giving his mom an at the most 10 second shoutout once a day (sometimes twice a day if there's a primetime show the same night) for a decade?

Believe me, I had high, high hopes for what the show could become post-Barker.  I'm disappointed that many of those hopes were dashed.
If it's any consolation, I feel the same way about Jeopardy! post-Trebek. I thought Mike Richards would do well and look what happened. I thought Michael Davies would do well and look what happened. I might not have the best judgment of character, it seems.

He did host Drew Carey's Improv-a-Ganza on GSN in 2011. Didn't last too long though.

as Nick put perfectly, he is a purist who did not like anything from the Drew era, so why would he change now?

Except I said no such thing (and would never have visited four tapings with Drew as host if that were the truth).  Believe me, I had high, high hopes for what the show could become post-Barker.  I'm disappointed that many of those hopes were dashed.

There have been several things that have happened post-Barker that I've been quite happy to see (e.g., the announcer being on camera, the models finally becoming practically permanent cast members again).  They've also been far more open about acknowledging the history of the show in ways that do not specifically include Bob Barker (e.g., "milestone" pricing game playings, mentioning retired games, etc.).  I would say, though, that it seems every time they try something, they always take it too far (e.g., the announcer being on camera is nice, but the obligatory greeting of him and his shoutout to his mother every episode is a bit much).  There's a perception that they need to "do" things to keep the show engaging (e.g., themed episodes) when the formula for Price's success was largely in part due to its stability and familiarity. 

As I've said, the biggest issue with the show now is that it's too rushed because CBS has cut too much time away from it for even more advertisements.

As for Drew sticking with the show, Drew is paid an enormous sum of money for a light work schedule.  It's a gig to keep for as long as you can if you're lucky enough to get it, and he has been one of the lucky ones.  What surprises me is how he hasn't used his exposure at Price to launch another sitcom or do comedy tours all those weeks of the year the show isn't taping, something that would seem to me far more in line with his interests and abilities.

From CBS's perspective, they have a working formula for Price to turn a profit with the host they have in the dying medium that is broadcast television.  As long as it continues to work, they'll keep him.
