There was more than occasion where Mary Ann Mobleys answer droned on so long that they even played this clip in the background, as she described her answer, with Brett chuckling in the background, funny stuff!

Well, Marc Breslow was the director of "TPIR" from the first day of the show (Sept. 4, 1972), & he was BELOVED by all of the staff & crew there except for Barker. I don't know what got Barker po'ed at Marc in the first place, but one of his conditions when he became EP of the show in 1986 was that Marc be fired, & he asked Mark Goodson to do that dirty deed for him, which hurt Mark deeply, as he thought of Marc as a son. Marc was fired, remained as 'creative consultant' til '96, & there you go
well, as they say, you can't be frieds with everyone at the workplace. Too bad he and Barker were the two that didn't get along. When the boss hates you, you get the shaft. Happened to be at my last job, so I know what that's like. So stupid to put personal feelings into wrecking a career. Bob got his in the '90's.
It seems like on "TPIR" that if you were on Barker's 'shit list', you got the shaft as well - look at Holly being fired for 'being difficult to work with', as well as 'being fat' according to Barker, as well as Janice Pennington, Kathleen Bradley, director Paul Alter, personal assistant Sherrell Paris, and assistants Linda Reigert and Sharon Friem being fired for testifying truthfully in Barker's slander suit against Holly, not to mention the racial problems Claudia Jordan & Deborah Curling had!
At my last job, we had a guy like that, and he got promoted! I feel bad for the people working nuder him now. The Barker Treatment. He was racist, and didn't give a crap about other religions that Christianity. I had to deal with his crap before I got laid off there. It's nothing compared to Barker, but I can understand to some degree.
Stay tuned for Tattletales next on
most of these CBS stations.
Its sad that game show network
cut this out at the end.

Don't forget the weird face mash-ups they'd do during the ticket plugs later on in the series.

No problem - just wish that Bob Barker gave Marc more respect on "TPIR" instead of firing him like he did!

Since I was a schjool kid at that time, I didn't watch TPiR so much. What happened with Bob and Marc?
