The 70s rock

[FlavioGirl]

OMG!!!!!!! there's a DVD box set of this?????? I'm definitely asking my mom for this for Christmas..........thank you :)

[75yellowraven]

Notice how the models stood then-with the left leg angled out strait. They don't do that anymore+They mostly wore those srange bell bottom pant suits-very amusing now. And of course Janice Pennington-filed a paternity suit aganst barker and lawsuit after 20 y on show. Now we have Lenicia former model doin the same, claiming favortism by producers-guess some things will never change. Really miss the 70s hair though-too much work anymore-except east coast tropy chics and in europe...

awsome man

[lakebay972]

This was right after Nixon resigned as POTUS and Ford was sworn in.

[5star555555555]

poor vicki...

[blozier2006]

when did the green set come into use?

[UsonianAC]

I actually like the brown set that TPiR used for the first couple of years.

[engrish2006]

Love that plug for the cigarette filter: "Aqua Filter: For you or someone you love." That would have definitely raised two eyebrows had this episode been set in 2011, that's for sure, lol.

[AarHan3]

Race Game was played for the first time on the previous show, August 14.

[jack032001]

i didnt not know they had hi lo back in 1974

[micmac99]

Anitra's lookin GOOOOODDDD!!!!

[micmac99]

One thing I miss about the "old school" TPiR is how each pricing game price was described with the sponsor's name. That is very rarely done nowadays, and I was told that the "little" prizes are no longer sponsored, the TPiR staff simply go to a store and buy them directly out of some prize petty cash budget. That sucks.

[richartrod]

In this clip you can see the old-school salesman showmanship that was Bob Barker's trademark during his 35-year run on "Price". Because of that showmanship, it's easy to see why, compared to Drew Carey today, Bob may seem to sound sarcastic or insincere. It was a different era then, and this was how they kept the high energy of the show.

[devswartz]

This video shows the MASSIVE difference between Hi-Fi SP VHS and 2" broadcast masters. For the masters to still be in pristine condition after 35 years--except for a little bit of hum--is beyond incredible.

[TheFlicker98]

The qualty is excellent and picture is way much better than how people record it on an old VHS tape.

[SHAUNERDANIEL]

How come people aren't that emotional now on the show...

[1sababoy]

"Absolutely Jorges"? I would have had seizures staring at that carpet pattern on my floor! ;-)

[WheelWatcher12345]

Bob Barker is the best host ever.

[WheelWatcher12345]

Bob Barker is the king of game shows.

[talshiarr]

It's [the world's most hideous] carpeting!

[BJ29035]

I Have It

[AMEwrestling]

Hi-Lo must have been in existence since 1973. Lucky Seven was also a classic that debuted in 1973.

[nskstinky1231]

nice hair syles back then lol

[thisisntagoodname]

I just got the DVD set myself. It's pretty awesome to watch these old episodes in this quality.

I believe my box set isn't as cool as the originally released one, has no liner notes. Apparently all the same episodes are on it, though. :3

@j4chri: No, thanks to the S.O.B's at Fremantle Media (NA).

@j4chri: No, thanks to the S.O.B's at Fremantle Media (North America)

[DartsRme312]

THIS FIRST GIRL IS A RIOT!!! LOL...

[j4chri]

TVLubber, what do you mean by never say never?

[rrunner81sg]

That game carpeting is exactly the same carpet offered during the famous "Ruphina" episode in March 1975. She was famous for how she guessed the carpeting on the nose.

[viddykiddy18]

And they have the same game too.

[devswartz]

Hmm...I wonder how many of the younger viewers know that car winners of Money Game keep all the cash they earn as well. I first started watching the show in the early 90s, and I didn't know that until now.

[goldenchick85]

wow I'm just learning now, I always thought you only got the money if you lost the car, lol

[j4chri]

Oh, yes, I bought this when it came out because GSN will never have this again.

[MrLogoman007]

I'm doing a GS tape trade with it, but I'll make sure to buy it again.

[TVLubber]

Never say never.

[charliebrown136]

The car was about the same size as the 1970 Datsun 240 sedan my parents had when I was young. Ah, memories...

[jamesallen74]

Ummm, the guess of $404 being correct? Something seems a little fishy.

[hdayejr]

Nice bootleg

[thewhammy83]

It's not a bootleg. I purchased an official DVD set from Best Buy. You can probably get it at Amazon or some other retail company.

[tvtimetravel]

@thewhammy83 I bought it at Best Buy too!

[mobi0501]

@thewhammy83 IS it really located on Amazon? If so, I wanna get it.

[canbac21]

Very nice quality, especially when this isn't a GSN copy!

[thewhammy83]

Thanks. Most of my shows come from recorded tapes and DVDs and I used to use Medium Quality on Pinnacle Studio 11. For the past few months, Medium quality started to gave me subpar results. So now I'm spending more time with customized High quality. With that quality and also with an official DVD, the results should be nicer.

[roadgeek09]

johnny olsen is the best announcer ever.

[TVLubber]

I think Johnny Olson did well, but I prefer another Johnny as my favorite game show announcer.

[tvtimetravel]

@roadgeek09 It's Olson, actually.

[nextbarker]

They should added the perfect bid bonus earlier then 1977.

[TVLubber]

The perfect bids were scarce at the time, but as soon as more and more came around through '77, Goodson-Todman decided to add the bonus.

[Rlotpir1972]

@nextbarker They didn't have that simplex fire alarm sound back then yet.
