I think he means the rest of THIS episode. Perhaps I can arrange that in about a week.

@TVLubber

Oh, thank you. I misread his post. My apologies.

[leandar]

Wow, I had completely forgotten that Bob hosted some of the nighttime episodes, I only remembered Tom Kennedy at night. Thanks for the upload! Is there any more of this episode available?

[GSNSmashFan3]

@leandar

Nope. There's no other Barker episodes available.

That's a nice looking Pontiac. I would definitely drive that car if it was 1980. Today, I would hook it up, and make it a sports car.

This is my new favorite pick up line :D

Yeah,would be great. Would accompany my collections of game shows on my rack beautifully. Cullen Pyramid would be something I'd save for.

[269848]

Me,too. If they could do all the DJ eps, I'd save up for that particular set. All syndicated game shows should be that way. You with me on this?

[GSNSmashFan3]

@269848

Of course! I'd love to see a Cullen $25,000 Pyramid box set too. :)

I wouldn't count on having EVERY Dennis episode, considering only 1/4 of his tenure is airable because of Bob's fur ban. *groan*

But I think 50 episodes is enough to make a GREAT DVD set filled with rare episodes!

[269848]

You know, it wouldn't be so bad if they put the rest of those eps on DVD like they did some time ago.

[GSNSmashFan3]

@269848

Agreed. I'd love to see a Dennis DVD set (since they probably wouldn't put Barker on due to a certain model...)

It'd be amazing if they did that! (The Best of the Nighttime Price is Right)

I miss the old Money Game board. I like it much better than the newer one. I also miss primetime game shows like "Price" being on. "Feud" is so/so anymore, and Jeopardy & Wheel have been on primetime for almost 3 decades. I wonder why Price doesn't consider doing a primetime version again? I'm guessing they stopped this version since the 60 minute edition was more exciting? Or Barker perhaps didn't want to pull "double duty" anymore?

[GSNSmashFan3]

@BatmanFan1966

I prefer Money Game being played center stage. Provides more suspense IMO. Remember, Price attempted primetime again in 1985-86 and 1994-95. The 1985-86 version was cancelled due to low ratings because most stations stuck it in the late night slots, and the 1994-95 version was cancelled because of how much of a depature it was from the daytime show, and OJ Simpson coverage didn't help either. TPIR would work so well with a nighttime version today, too...

i never knew Bob Barker did Nightime PIR,Wasn't it Dennis James then Tom Kennedy.

[GSNSmashFan3]

@doulasc

Woah woah woah! I think you have your facts mixed up. Dennis hosted from 1972-1977, then Bob took over until the finale in 1980. Tom Kennedy hosted a DIFFERENT version from 1985 to 1986!

[269848]

@GSNSmashFan3 Too bad Bob doesn't want certain shows aired. I can understand about the furs as prizes, but show the ones that have non-fur prizes.

[GSNSmashFan3]

@269848

Very agreed. But I wouldn't expect to see any 1977-1980 episodes without fur that have Holly in them if they are ever reran, thanks to a ban aganist episodes with Holly by Bob AFTER GSN stopped rerunning the series.

[gsnman]

I'm pretty sure channel 7 in Seattle, WA aired this, and so did channel 11 in the Durham/Raleigh/Fayetteville, NC area.
