   "The Price is Right" is a rock!    
  That show hasn't changed in 30 years... they still use the same props, and games as they always have.now there's a show that stuck to its roots.  All the other game-shows have had makeovers with the sets, etc... from Family Fued, to Wheel of Fortune (anyone remember when the contestants had to shop to spend their winnings?), to Hollywood Squares (all long-running game shows).The Price is Right just keeps milling along with no changes whatsoever.And Bob Barker's still a pimp.[edited by - aegrimonia on August 14, 2002 1:27:13 PM]
  Does it mean I''m old if I remember when Bob Barker colored his hair? -=Lohrno  ;  The Price is Right is awesome.  A friend of mine is addicted to it, he schedules his classes around the show.  He can tell you exactly when they started the different games, what your chances of winning are, etc.  I like the show, but I''m not fruity over it like that.  ;quote:Original post by Lohrno  Does it mean I''m old if I remember when Bob Barker colored his hair?   Yes .;  I loved watching the Price is Right when I was little.  I would watch it almost every morning, trying to guess the right answer/price/etc.  It was a lot of fun.    Grant Palin  ;  I used to watch this show almost every day during summer break when I was younger. I also think it''s cool how it has stayed true to itself. That''s what sets it apart, imho - the retro look/feel is a glimpse into the past. Just about the only thing that changed are the prizes.One of these days I''ll go see it live. Who knows, Rod might call my name ;  Plingo is the best game ever.  Hmmm, maybe I should code up a Plingo game (or better yet, someone else can do it ).Is it Plingo or Plinko?  Can''t remember now.  ;quote:Original post by Lohrno  Does it mean I''m old if I remember when Bob Barker colored his hair?   Not as old as if you could remember watching "Truth or Consequences"I think the Bob Barker bits of "Happy Gilmore" were among the best parts of that movie - suprising that Sandler and Barker played off each other so well. I have a friend who worked at Paramount building "Price is Right" sets - those props aren''t as old as you would imagine. She also worked on the "Lottery Show" - and last I spoke with her, she was headed to South Africa to show them there how to set up their own "Lotto Shows". All this under the "Goodman - Thomson" banner. ;  It''s Plinko.  ;quote:Original post by BitBlt  It''s Plinko. Gar, I knew it.  Too lazy to edit my post anyway.
