Nope.  Although I believe it may have been filmed at Television City in a different studio.  TPiR's Rachel Reynolds was the model for the pilot.

This isn't from Wink's channel. But he did post it on his Facebook page, and it's hilarious!
This is actually the second in what appears to be becoming a series. The first is below, in which Wink reacts to "haters" in quite an amusing manner:
The above is my opinion and mine alone.

To answer your questions: yes, I am a guy and yes, I have a face. (I also have the occasional spurt of weirdness.)

Quote from: thepriceis_J
People are tired of the f**kery and drama, but if we'd actually talk to each other sometimes instead of a whole bunch of private conversations with other people, it'd go a long way to perhaps fixing the problems most seem to see in the site.

So we've been getting clips from Wink now for several months... I'll go back to what I mentioned when he released the 3 videos of the missing TPiR games.

IMO, This is some of the best stuff for the game show community I've seen in decades.     I love it all.
I'm TheBigAK...and I APPROVE this post.

Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

I've been waiting for this pilot to hit the internet for years.  Not much is known about that show.  Only two brief clips have been made publicly available.  One clip appeared on one of the Game Show Moments Gone Bananas specials:  The common letter that links _ART, _ALL, and _ABLE seems to be "F"... but the next clue confirms that it's actually "T".  The other clip is on YouTube, and that's the intro.  Johnny Olson was the announcer and the opening theme was recycled from Dick Martin's short-lived "Mindreaders".

Not to quote another game show, but we hit the jackpot this time.  ;-)
I'll put this in here, but I didn't want it to overshadow the more interesting topic of specials. Earlier in the show Mike and Beth talked about Jenny McCarthy's appointment to The View and it leads to Mike talking about her appearance on Price. Mike says that he and the staff mulled over whether or not to have her on the show because of the controversy that follows her. They ultimately decided to have her because she's "a great advocate for what she believes in." Now, Mike didn't specify exactly what he meant by "what she believes in" and what "belief" of her's that he's addressing, but that could certainly be taken the wrong way.

As well as another rare episode of Gambit, I imagine. :-) (Wink's FB page is at 4,186 likes-- he needs 4,200 for the episode to be unveiled.)
