... As it is, Lisa was a lot of fun, too.
And hey, did anybody like the new car music they played? (I may as well be the first to bring it up.) I liked it so much, I played it again twice.It sounds to me like it could have been from Edd Kalehoff - a couple of the chords (as well as the percussion) sounded like him. It also makes sense because the "new" cues used in Coming or Going and Barker's Bargain Bar were from Tony Danza's old talk show, which Edd did the music for. The cues are available on Edd's web site (as "TonyD TWO Long" and "TonyD1 Long") here: http://www.kalehoff.com/samples.php?pageno=3&PHPSESSID=c297dacb6f77eaa65aa0db62543412d5 (http://www.kalehoff.com/samples.php?pageno=3&PHPSESSID=c297dacb6f77eaa65aa0db62543412d5). In addition, the music used for the items in Hole in One also sounded like him.
Another rarity: a Secret X wipeout. To be honest, I don't remember ever seeing one of these before.
I guess it's natural that 2 weeks after the first block of shows, there would be more pricing games into the rotation, but 4 "new" games still seemed like a lot.
COMING OR GOING- waaaaayyyyy too easy.
The new cues on this show did absolutely nothing for me. They're not even memorable like the '03 package -- I couldn't tell you how a single one went.
Drew called the asterisk on the Big Wheel carpet "the Goodson mark." More proof that he's done his homework.
One thing I noticed during the intro was that the "virtual lightbox" in the intro didn't seem to reach the edges of the screen today. I'm not sure if this is something that I just haven't noticed previously or if it's a glitch.
- I dunno about those of you who watched it on Innertube, but mine played without commercials at all. One part finished, a 2 second pause, and the other one started! If only it could be like that more often! ;)
I'm enjoying Drew more and more every day. I think I can say truthfully that I've fully accepted him as the new host.
I see they've changed the money win graphics again. These new ones look a little better than the Pricedown graphics from the first six weeks.We need to remember that this was one of the first shows taped. So, the Pricedown money win graphics are what's being used now. You're likely going to see a lot of bouncing around in the graphics department until they get on a more logical taping schedule.

Boo urns on the new prize cues!== JAY SEZ: ==

"Boo urns"... that's a new one. Never heard. Definition?
Thanks!

Well, if you still have the show on Tivo, listen again to the cue when the Mustang Convertible is revealed. I think I like it and hope they play it more.
There was a Simpsons episode where Mr. Burns was being booed by a crowd; he asked Smithers "are they booing me?", and Smithers replied "no, they're saying Boo-urns! Boo-urns!"This episode was "A Star is Burns" from Season 6. March of 1995
It would be nice of Drew calls the asterisk the "Goodson mark" by default, though I don't know how long Fremantle would tolerate it...They left the Mark Goodson name on the show for so many years when most companies want their own name on their products as soon as possible; I can't imagine, then, that they'd object to an acknowledgement that most people wouldn't even notice. Especially since there's almost never a reason to mention the asterisks at all.
