Stewart's follow-up to "The Price Is Right", his first independent production, was "Eye Guess", a sight-and-memory game with Bill Cullen as host. Later, Stewart created other successful shows such as "Jackpot!" and "The $10,000 Pyramid". In the early 1970s, Mark Goodson was preparing a revised version of "The Price Is Right" for syndication and CBS daytime dubbed "The New Price Is Right", which incorporated elements of the Cullen version with new mini-games influenced by "Let's Make a Deal" (known as pricing games, since these games required pricing various products).

Barker would host "Truth or Consequences" on NBC until 1965, and later in daily syndication until 1975, by which time he had also taken over a revival of "The Price Is Right" on CBS from 1972 to 2007 (Drew Carey has been their host since 2007). As a result, thanks to Edwards's "be yourself" admonition, Barker became as familiar with a generation of "Truth or Consequences" and "Price Is Right" viewers, as earlier fans had with Edwards and original "Price Is Right" host Bill Cullen during the original versions of the shows in the 1950s and

In 1986 he became director of the current version of the show, replacing original director Marc Breslow. Alter was relieved of his position as director of "The Price Is Right" in 2000 by Pearson Television due to an unfavorable deposition against host Bob Barker.

On September 4, 1972, Barker began hosting the CBS revival of "The Price Is Right". In the 35 years of the CBS version, Barker became far more associated with the series than first host Bill Cullen was with the 1956–65 original. When James' contract for the nighttime "Price" expired without being renewed in 1977, Barker assumed hosting duties for three nighttime seasons as well, with the nighttime series eventually ending

In 1963, Gilbert was selected by Mark Goodson to replace Don Pardo as the announcer and audience host for the original Bill Cullen-hosted version of "The Price Is Right" when it moved from NBC to ABC. He hosted the show for the absent Bill Cullen on June 19, 1964. Gilbert also served as the announcer and audience host for Dinah Shore's syndicated daily talk show, which ran from 1974 until 1980.

He escaped any taint from the coming quiz show scandal, though he told "The American Experience" he had been horrified by some of the testimony to Congress--including that of child star Patty Duke (who once played "The $64,000 Challenge"), who eventually admitted in tears that she had been coached to lie to Congressional investigators. By that time, Fox's involvement in game shows went no farther than occasionally filling in for the original host of "The Price Is Right", Bill Cullen,

James was a regular substitute host for Monty Hall on "Let's Make a Deal" beginning in January 1972, when he caught the attention of Mark Goodson and Bill Todman, who were putting together "The New Price Is Right" for syndication; the new format would incorporate the original format from 1956–1965 with elements from "Let's Make a Deal".

The show was first billed as "The New Price Is Right" to distinguish itself from the earlier/original version (1956–65) hosted by Bill Cullen, but it proved so popular in its own right that, in June 1973, the producers decided to drop the word "New" from its title. On March 26, 1973, CBS moved "The Price Is Right" to 3:00 pm ET, pairing it with "Match Game" as part of what became the highest-rated pairing in daytime. The show remained in that time slot until August 11, 1975 when it permanently

It was the only time he ever appeared on the revival of "The Price Is Right", but no mention was made of his role as the show's original host.

The original host of the U.S. show was Drew Carey, who appeared in every episode of seasons 1–8. Carey notably took more of an active role in the show than his predecessor Clive Anderson, as following the announcement of the "winner" of each show, Carey would perform a game with the other performers.

Barker took the daytime show, which he hosted until 2007, while James hosted a weekly version for the syndicated market, which aired in the "access period" leading into prime time and was thus known as "the nighttime "Price Is Right"". On the nighttime "Price Is Right", James was reunited with another DuMont Television Network host, Johnny Olson, who served as announcer.

Carey, Stiles, Brady, and Esten were all later employed by American television network CBS; Carey succeeded Bob Barker as the host of the long-running game show "The Price Is Right" (after a short stint as host of another game show, "Power of 10"). In addition, Sherwood and Davis served as guest announcers for the 2010-11 season of "The Price Is Right", after the departure of Rich Fields, who was eventually replaced by George Gray.

James eventually hosted a taping day (four half-hour episodes) of the daytime show in December 1974 when Barker fell ill and was unable to participate in the episode tapings. The two versions were largely similar at the beginning, as both were called "The New Price Is Right." Some games had rule differences

From the introduction of the bonus in 1977 until 1998, the "perfect bid" bonus was $100; it was permanently increased to the current $500 in 1998.

The Price Is Right models The American television game show "The Price Is Right" has, since its 1972 relaunch, employed a number of models to showcase the prizes and items that are given away on the show. From 1972 to 2007, the group was referred to as "Barker's Beauties," in reference to Bob Barker, who hosted the show during that period. The original "Price Is Right" also employed models. Usually, two models appeared per episode to model the prizes, much in the same tradition as the later incarnations. As is the case with the Carey-era of the current version, the

CBS expressed interest in the series, on one condition: instead of James, Barker would be installed as host. After some initial resistance, Barker instead offered to host another upcoming CBS game show, Jack Barry's "The Joker's Wild" (which had difficulty finding a host and was scheduled to debut the same day as "Price") to allow James to host "Price", but CBS rejected this proposal.
