This is a first... I am the first to reply to a show summary. Well, again, Drew is a little off in some spots. First, forgetting the rules to Shopping Spree (he confused it with Credit Card.. you spend MORE money on SS and AS LITTLE MONEY AS POSSIBLE on Credit Card) He covered for his mistake well, joking that he and the crew were at a party, and he thanks Roger for clearing up his error.

His energy level also varied. He was less enthused in areas where he could've had more. Maybe it's the "end of the season" anticipation and looking forward to a little time off, I dunno.

Woohoo, the recaps are back where they belong. :-)

PG #1-Today's Shopping Spree is brought to you by FIRE...oh, and a kitchen island, too. 8-)  That was about the easiest setup I've ever seen in this game.

PG #2-Wow, I'd say this was the best game Drew hosted today.  He was so full of energy!

PG #3-Mercurys may be nice, but there's no way that car would cost $26K or $29K.

PG #5-If only she had bought one more soup...

PG #6-Played like a pro.

Not about the show, but about the first commercial after Money Game (I think it was nationwide).  Is it just me or does the singer in that commercial sound like Herbert (the creepy old man) from Family Guy?

Post by: SteveGavazzi on July 07, 2008, 08:06:32 PM

What the...why the heck did they air Thursday's show?!  Cripe, I hope CBS isn't starting this crap again...

...whatever, though.  The show itself was good, although Pathfinder was abysmal.  Money Game, on the other hand, was played surprisingly well -- it probably helped that the highest choice for the first two numbers was right for once, but you don't usually expect the game to be won when the last two numbers are so low.

It's much easier to accept Drew bungling something when he laughs it off and makes a joke about it, like he did when he starting explaining Credit Card during Shopping Spree.

Incidentally, did Shopping Spree and Safe Crackers seem like an odd way to start the show to anyone else?

Title: Re: FULL RECAP - TPiR 07/07/2008
Post by: goldroadfanatic on July 07, 2008, 08:18:54 PM

I really wonder why CBS decided to air this show out of order. I mean we are past the point of repeating lineups but was this done for the "make good" airing April 29, 2008 show?  It probably isn't but I want to throw that out here as a possibility.

Drew may have slipped up in Shopping Spree, thinking it was Credit Card, but he handled it very well saying that he was at a party with the staff and had his hand bandaged up from a previous incident.

Wow, Safe Crackers played second for the first time since May 17, 2007! 

I know Mercurys look semi-luxury, but that Milan looks too cheap and too small to fetch $29,000+.  It really stinks though, that Trelena used up all the SPs and still couldn't get off the two.

Drew had a good laugh in Squeeze Play, he thought that Jenni had won for a second until he saw the actual price for himself and heard the buzzer.

It really was a heartbreaker to find out that if Dasaundra bought three cans of soup instead of two, she would have won the game.

I don't know if Roger set it up on purpose, but this is probably going to be the only time in which 36 was the right choice for numbers this season.  I kind of had a feeling it would be 36 once 18 was revealed to be the first two numbers and the Front 'n Back trick would come into effect.

I'd be willing to wager it had something to do with the "party over the weekend" reference.

Great moment this season.

This seems to be his main issue and I don't know how you resolve it. Cue cards are distracting but it might be what they need.

Hi. I'm new here and I'll just like to say that I am truly honored to be one of the newest members of golden-road.net, the best fan site of THE BEST GAME SHOW OF ALL TIME!!! If it's all right, I'll like to tell you all a little bit about myself:

Favorite Pricing Game: Golden Road  :D
Favorite Type of Prize: Chevy Corvette  :D
Favorite Money Game: PLINKO!!!  :mrgreen:


Thank you for letting me share a bit about myself. Now, without further adeu, let me give my first ever thoughts about today's game:

Shopping Spree: Great Playing. I just knew that the bistro table heater couldn't cost that much. :-)
Safe Crackers: OUCH  Maybe better luck next time.  :-(
Pathfinder: I would have gotten stuck on the 3rd number. Those 1s can be pretty tricky.
Squeeze Play: Both the 5 and the 9 looked right. I think I would have gone with the 9 though.
Grocery Game: OUCH So Close...
Money Game: A great contestant and a great win.  :D
Showcases: Judy really deserved to win her showcase. She was an absolutely wonderful contestant.
Sikes' overall view of today's show: Not a bad show overall. Some good contestants and a few nice wins.

Thank you one and all for letting me join golden-road.net. I promise to be a good member and stay strong and true to the Price is Right as long as it stays on the air. :D

J. Sikes

P.S. The reason why I am called "priceguy37" is because 37 is my lucky number, just in case anyone was wondering.

I did too Steve. Seeing Spree and Safe back to back was somewhat weird, almost like seeing Clearance Sale and Safe Crackers back to back as well, which I believe occured a few seasons back and ironically the 3rd game that day as well was Pathfinder.

There were a lot of good jokes from Drew today. The "party over the weekend" one, and "Brought To You By Fire". There was one other one I was cracking up at too, but I can't remember what it is.

The elderly lady who played MG was just so overjoyed to be playing, and play she did. Caught on to what might be Roger's last front-and-back trick. (I wonder if Fingers will use The Dob's old tricks on Money Game next season, or if she'll come up with some of her own. We'll have to wait and see, I guess.) When she was in contestant's row, I found it amusing that rather than use the microphone, she preferred to cup her hands around her mouth and shout the bids at Drew.  :oldlol:

That's interesting that GROCERY GAME used the "tenor buzzer" to signify a loss. For those LFAT's that's the buzzer they used for a long time from the early Bob Barker and Dennis James versions to the mid 80's before they used the "bass buzzer". I'm only hoping when Fingers becomes the boss that they don't take away that great "bass buzzer" aka MRRRP!

Yeah, I could tell this was out of order. Squeezy and Money were both just played Friday.

Shopping Spree: Fairly easy.
Safe Crackers: I really thought it was 690, but then again, I'm not very good at this game.
Pathfinder: Dreadful. She played it so poorly I was actually screaming at my TV.
Squeezy: Had it right on.
Grocery Game: Not an easy loss. I was thinking 6 cereals (which would have won)
Money: First number was easy. Wasn't thinking 36 for the rest.

SC1: Just went over on this one. Think I overpriced the Italy trip a bit.
SC2: That trip to Germany must have been $$$$$$$. Something must have been, anyway.

Only 8 left!

Big surprise! I met the one-toothed "54 TODAY" guy in line, and when I saw him in the crowd on today's show, wearing the same shirt, I immediately thought, "Oh, that bleedin' liar!" Because, of course, there was no way that they'd air Thursday's show today.

When I saw my own big yellin' mug in the audience, I realized what was going on.

During the commercial after Squeeze Play, Drew asked Roger if it was peculiar to have double numbers. Roger sort of shrugged and said it wasn't that unusual.

A few months ago, I pointed out the season number in Money Game to my wife. As much as I've come to expect front-and-back, I never expected to see the 36 used in the price.

Drew had his bandage changed during the show, explaining that since his angioplasty he's on blood thinners, and doesn't heal as well.

Drew said that Trelena was broken up over not winning the Mercury Milan, and he wasn't kidding. She was crying, hard-core, and only just regained composure in time for the Big Wheel. During the second half, I noticed she had a wastebasket in front of her, a fellow audience member was fanning her, and a page was bringing her cups of water. No indication of that whatsoever on the air.

Both buzzers have also been used this year in Most Expensive, Check-Out, Credit Card and More or Less. Well, at least you can't blame Fingers for using the standard buzzer for both wrong guesses in Take Two. Don't worry, MRRP! will still be around, because that's been a part of the show for 36 years, along with the DING! and such.

Geez, what a way to react to losing on TPIR. Granted, it's probably not the best playing of Pathfinder I've seen (I am sure at least ONE other person has wiped out and never lit the first number, but it's been a while)

She's probably one of those "What will my friends THINK of me for losing this game... I'll never hear the end of it!" It's a GAME, and not one meant to change your life.

Thankfully the cameras didn't catch her bawling on the air, but TPIR is the happiest show on earth, not Queen for a Day.

Shopping: That Bistro Table was obvious the "stay away". Good job.

Safe: $690 just wasn't right.

Pathfinder: One of the poorest (but not the worst) playings ever and hearing her reaction after losing made me wonder "What the....?"

Squeeze: $3595 just wasn't right.

Grocery: Poor Dausandra. One more Soup could've made it for her.  :-(

Money: The "front-and-back" trick comes out again. Good job.  :-)

Showcases: Congrads to Judy for coming out on top.

A 3-star show.

Well, if she'd listened to me, she would have picked three cans of soup... if not 19 cans of soup right out of the gate. Then again, if they were in the business of listening to me, Trelena wouldn't have needed special accommodations during Act II.

Drew said of my audience performance on a later date, "YOU should'a been up here!" My response? "Hey, don't tell me, tell Stan--I'm trying!"
