Lots of laughs! Lots of loot! Lots of fun every morning at 11:00 Eastern/10:00 Central! Join us each day in our Discord for the 52nd season of the fabulous, sixty-minute Price Is Right, or get your fix 24 hours a day on Pluto TV with both the Barker Era channel, currently streaming episodes from Seasons 11-14, or the new Price is Right Channel, streaming episodes from Seasons 38 and 39!
I was watching every day in the fall while I was on paternity leave, but admittedly I haven't seen much since then. I watched this episode and a couple others in the last week, and I have to say it feels like this show is in a new golden age.
Drew has reached a new level as a host. The main cast has longevity we haven't seen in decades. They have good rapport (I've enjoyed Drew's banter with James as of late). Contestant casting has improved drastically. Prizes have gotten less outlandish. There's more space for interacting with contestants.
This might not be the exact same show that it was when I was growing up. It's certainly not perfect. But it's the fun, positive, exciting, funny, happy show that I remember. It brings me joy in a way that it hasn't in a long time.
