4733D appears to have been skipped. That bumps up the first Plinko to a bit past 100 minutes after I post this, 10 EST / 7 PST.
"If any show, forget sports, Price is Right, [the audience is] the star of the show. Somebody... coming on down and losing their minds, and ... crying, that's the show. The show isn't me, the show isn't necessarily [a] can of soup, how much that is, it's watching people go bananas, and there's going to be some of that missing."

That was Route 101 by Herb Alpert.  I hear that quite a bit on Yacht Rock Radio on Sirius XM.
That's it!  Thanks a lot.

It played again on another episode yesterday, during a showcase.

Shortly before I checked in this morning, I had a hunch that an episode would be skipped.  Wasn't sure which one, but the result was the same: The Plinko premiere airing an hour earlier.  It is what it is

For everything Pluto runs starting from Fall '82 (or if the show ever turns up elsewhere), assume it was a specific music licensing issue (4733D *does* have a licensed song in SC2 - Baby Elephant Walk by Henry Mancini) or otherwise is an issue with the tape being damaged.

I'm fairly sure I heard "Baby Elephant Walk" in a different episode earlier, so it would likely be the latter.

So.....if what they've said is accurate, and they indeed have 100 episodes that are digitized and broadcast worthy right now in their rotation, there should be a reset by early tomorrow I think. They will have ran 96 episodes by my count by end of today, 24 last week, 24 this week and then 24 yesterday and today. So I'd expect a recycling of them by 10AM tomorrow morning, but could be wrong.

I've noticed that starting on 4745D (which was another standing ovation), the circle wipes have begun to be used during Bob's entrance, but only for the first part as the second part remains a jump cut.

That is brilliant!

That's not the Plinko stick being used as a pointer, is it?
Roger Dobkowitz's Seven Commandments of The Price Is Right:
1. Tape and edit the show as if it were live.
2. Never tell the contestant what to do.
3. Size matters. (The bigger the prize, the better the prize and the bigger the reaction.)
4. All prizes are good.
5. Never do anything on the show that would embarrass a parent with a kid watching.
6. Never put on a prize that would make the show look cheap.
7. It’s the game, stupid! (It’s about the game.)

It most certainly is!
"Nobody cares about the guest stars." - Roger Dobkowitz

"Change isn't always good. Sometimes changing things is a terrible mistake." - Bob Barker

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.

Holy cow, the second playing of Plinko uses the Cats stinger but the disco ball!
They can be close at the top, too.

Contrary to what's listed on the timeline, the disco ball was just used for Plinko again.

EDIT: And the WIN/price reveal is still from the first playing.

Also, the old SP reveal is in use (with the diagonal WIN! taking up a single white card), but all the right prices are white numbers on red cards.
