The Price is Right - January 5, 1998 (1)

This particular episode of "Price" holds much significance for me personally, as it is the oldest first-generation episode of any game show I have ever recorded and still have to this day! Thanks to promos for the premiere of a short-lived sitcom that debuted that night called "Style & Substance" which aired throughout, I was able to determine that this episode originally aired on January 5, 1998. Hard to believe I taped this almost 12 years ago. Enjoy!

Part 1.

Man, do I miss seeing the classic "Barker's Beauties"! Janice, Holly, Dian & Kathleen were AWESOME! They are above the wannabes that pass as models on today's "TPiR"! After all, it isn't "The Price is Right" without Bob Barker, Rod Roddy & Johnny Olson. R.I.P. Johnny & Rod. You are both missed dearly. Your losses are still felt all these years later.

@ChihuahuaboyDH What about Mark Goodson? He passed away in 1992. Frank Wayne, the original executive producer passed away in 1988. Paul Alter, director from 1986 to 2000, passed away July 11, 2011. Ray Angona, technical director for 20 years, passed away in 2008. Those deaths really impacted TPIR too. It sucks CBS didn't acknowledge Alter's death because he was a revolutionary director. But Johnny and Rod's death were the biggest blows.
