What was the difference between the Phone Home Game and the Telephone Game?

[animegal2686]

How exactly was Shower Game played?

[JamesC666]

What about the Check game? i never see that anymore?

[TheOldcarlover]

Bob Barker was the best. Dru Carey is such a dufus. Lol

[flclfan85]

is the Balance Game in this video the same as the version that runs now?

[STOPobama1]

I didn't know Buy or Sell was retired...and one of the pics has the 4WWL Logo...the New Orleans CBS Affiliate...which is the station I watch TPIR on

[jvandiesel]

[animegal2686]

Is it true that Fortune Hunter was the first game to be retired in the 2000s?

[GSNSmashFan3]

@animegal2686

Yep.

[setheriah]

love the car theme



[Steventhe2nd]

i think there are some of these game's that shouldn't be retired, like penny ante, joker, buy or sell, make your mark, hit me, poker game and super ball shouldn't be retired

[bigt1nyhatch]

@Steventhe2nd Yes SuperBall is one of my personal all time favorites...

There is an interesting story behind Penny Ante. The producers had no intention on retiring that game,The prop was left outside on a clear sunny day with no rain in the forecast, however a rain shower came out of nowhere and destroyed the prop. The producers hesitated to restore the prop but decided just to retire it instead.

[tailsyoshieevee]

wasn't there a pricing game that involved a talking tree, it could be just me.

[timhomer2009]

@tailsyoshieevee Was that Professor Price you were thinking about?

[NYBredBamaFed]

I enjoyed seeing the old Price is Right games. I especially am glad to see a game that I was wondering really existed. I remembered a game where you pulled on a rope and something would fall down (possibly even water) but was thinking maybe I imagined it. Thanks to this video, I now know I did not imagine it! Now I know it was called "The Shower Game". I remembered that one in the 70's when I was a child.

[erikdraven1731]

@NYBredBamaFed Me too.  I just wish I could find a clip of some of these games being played. I never got a chance to see Shower Game, Finish Line, or Telephone Game.

[gsparkway324]

clearance sale was just eazy az 123 with price tags instead of blocks

[sravenes]

i liked penny ante

[Terry3634]

Oh No! Not Bump It! I love the game....Drew Carry is a very good host, But I miss Bob Barker love him, he is Price Is Right and no one can take his place, and also I miss the original Barker's Beauty, sorry Drew the Price Is Right is just not the same...I wished I could have met Mr. Barker before he retired, I do hope he's doing well..And remember folks have your pets spayed or neutered. :-)

[PriceRight89]

Still can't believe Bargain Bar is gone. :(

[heine71]

I hope in 2010 Credit Card, Gas Money, and/or Check Game don't join the TPIR retired pricing game list!

[gameshowsful64]

@heine71 punch a bunch and plinko ,golden road

"Barker's Bargain Bar" isn't retired, it's being remade.

[noluckBoston13]

@systemoperator

I got some bad news for you.

Courtesy of Kathy Greco "Clearance Sale & Barker's Bargain Bar have both been retired. Some games just run their course as did Clearance Sale. Bargain Bar was very old and needed a complete remodel. We felt the money would be better spent on the new set and on some new games."

[systemoperator]

Courtesy of Drew Carey "Barker's Bargain Bar" will come back with a new set.

[noluckBoston13]

@systemoperator

Yes but Drew said that at the beginning of this season. Kathy said her statement less then a week ago.

[systemoperator]

It's article on answers(dot)com said despite being absent from the list of pricing games, it will come back eventually.

[noluckBoston13]

@systemoperator

Well my quote come from Kathy Greco Producer on the Price is Right, Posted on the Price is Right web site last week.

It is possible back then they were going to rehab the game, but posting old info from a non-affiliated website wont make it true.

Sorry

[systemoperator]

It's on Wikipedia.

[irdial]

I would love to grab a ZIP of all the Price is Right music... its beautiful!

[Dougerz]

Job well done...5 stars! =D

[IAmNotAFunguy]

I suspect Bargain Bar will return and be called Carey's Bargain Bar or just Bargain Bar.

[mapaniju]

Is there EVER going to be a Shower Game video? I've waited for ages!

[GHWTVideos]

I wish a cable network would air TPiR again...:( I Miss bob. And I miss seeing old games in action.

[Paulywint]

I feel the same way. I used to taped nearly all the TPIR episodes when it was on GSN. It was fun seeing how much things were worth back then (such as cars) also seeing how much things were when they first came out such as microwaves.

[AutisticPersona]

Love the intro! Oh and Bargain Bar isn't retired!

[gsn93]

@AutisticPersona

Kathy Greco, said the game was retired, on the show's website.

Clearance Sale & Barker's Bargain Bar have both been retired. Some games just run their course as did Clearance Sale. Bargain Bar was very old and needed a complete remodel. We felt the money would be better spent on the new set and on some new games. It may come back with a new look...you never know.

@gsn93 and thus... Cue Rat Race
