After 50 years, Bob Barker is finally done.

[habernac]

and game show models everywhere breathe a sigh of relief. No more senior citizen pervert hosts will be hitting on them anymore. LOL!

Well you have to tell us what game you played? Was it something cool like Plinko, Hole in One, or the one with the yoddler, or one of the lame ones?

And how did you do spinning the big wheel?

[Sylvanfan]

Plinko is the greatest all time game on the price is right. Purely a game of chance, unless you managed to map out the board and do a series of equations to figure out how to make the chip fall the right way.

I'll miss the old days where male game show hosts were allowed to hit on the women contestants and be idolized. No wonder society is so screwed up these days. If you can't hit on women and be a legend you might as well turn to crime!

[Philly06Cup]

I hope they don't continue doing Price is Right with some other host. Even if it's a half-decent replacement, Bob Barker MADE that show. It wouldn't be right to watch it, with some other guy hosting it.

Instead, they should opt to make some sort of spinoff: have a new set, new layout, new games, and some other minor changes. Keep some of the old games, but also make it distinguishable from the original

[krazycanuck]

They do plan to keep doing the show. It's a great show that's good for the network, advertisers and it's entertaining. Hopefully they don't hire some lame to replace him.

But yeah, I played spelling bee...where you have to spell C-A-R...I got 4 cards....then I pulled R-C-C-R...no A and no Ford Focus for me!. Then yes...that wheel is really freakin heavy...I went first and spun 90 cents. I was excited...thought I was in. The next 2 people both got $1.00. I was ****ed.

I should also mention that I did it all in an old skool Flames jersey

Man that is some really bad luck. Sounds like you watched Happy Gilmour though and knew better than to lose your temper and attack Bob Barker and get tuned though.

lol Sylvanfan


BTW, about the show... Sure they'll continue it... Bob Barker wasn't actually even the original host of the show... so, it'll go on. Though, no where near as good I'm guessing. Bob rules.

They have the same game show in Germany: Der Preis ist Heiss.

And around the world:

the problem is if they cancel it, like 70% of the population over the age of 65 will probibly die of boredom...also page davis is kinda hot...in that "redecorate my home" sorta way.

Any pics?

[krazycanuck]

no pics showing anything of quality, just the VHS of the show. I do have a pic of my price tag name tag though...check it!

I was actually watching TPIR earlier this year and there was another dude in a flames jersey. He was wearing a new red one though. Suffered the same fate as me, played for a car...lost and never made it past the wheel.
