How ‘The Price Is Right’ Is Made

[@Takara8tt]

I’m getting flashbacks of when I stayed home from school when I was sick and all that was on in the morning was the Price is Right.

[@kapilpatel4849]

LOL literally just commented this, good old days!

[@narenn91]

Same lmaoooooo

[@chrisfinch8637]

I've always had to wait until I was sick to watch Bob Barker on the show. However, I was only in elementary school when he was the host. By the time I started middle school, it was Drew Carey's turn to take the stage. Oh, those were indeed the days.

[@bmoose566]

@robert leonard that was when tv was good lol.. tv wasn't as much time consuming because you didn't have all kinds of channels and shows to binge watch for no reason at all

[@lindaf4836]

Me too. But being a shy, school phobic, I ditched a LOT, so got to watch more often.

[@ErnestoExplores]

I really love Price is Right behind the scenes videos! I myself was a contestant of this show and played a game on stage. My mind shut down when I was on stage and it didn't work properly because I was in state of SHOCK that's why I sought help from the audience. It's really one of the best experiences I ever had!!!

[@chrisfinch8637]

Bob telling Drew to not act like or be like him was the best piece of sage advice ever given. But luckily, he does act like Barker, when it comes to the spay-neuter plug at the end of each show, so that's rewarding. The day they both met, Drew told him that he was going to keep using that plug as long as he was the host and Bob never had to ask him! They've been firm friends ever since, and I find that rewarding too. God bless them both.

[@agofficial1]

Drew is genuinely a good human being, I hope he stays the host for times to come

[@domino866]

Drew's not going no where, he will be on the show for along time like Bob was.

[@lifewithredanddrie4061]

Drew is the best

[@XMguy]

Lord I, like many others watched when home from school. Which was a lot of the time. Health issues. Seeing Bob Barker and those games were best part of my day!

[@scottprice4813]

Couldn't have found a better person to carryon than Drew. Who could it have possibly been Different yes - but the same engagement with the people and empathy. You can tell he's committed and having fun. Have to have that base understanding of people and talent.

[@JonesDylan874]

Drew's done a good job as host. 14 years, bout to be 15 next year.

[@MoxieBeast]

my lifelong dream has been to spin that wheel.

[@kapilpatel4849]

Let's spin it together

[@CosbyTheCaterpillar]

Mine is to see it break off the axle and roll into the audience.

[@marks47]

You know that's in an episode of Family Guy, right?

[@broken2k9]

stryfetc1 I’m with you, it’s random, but seems so fun compared to guessing higher or lower, or some other game.

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

Drew is an amazing talent in his own right. A great start in stand-up... then on to his own show... and now TPIR. The Amazing Bob Barker will be 100 in December! Rock On, Bob!

[@tnate6004]

I haven't been since Drew took over, but went several times when Bob hosted and it was always a great time - even waiting on the sidewalk with people at 3 a.m.

[@claymiller9707]

Drew Carey is 60, I wanna look that young when I’m that age

[@broken2k9]

Drew has done a good job, I appreciate his logic behind his role taking on a very long standing and prestigious game show.

[@claygilchrist632]

The positives for Drew was that the job pays well, there’s job security because TPIR is a classic, and he doesn’t have to travel like he did as a stand up comedian.

[@broken2k9]

@@claygilchrist632 Long forgotten comment, but that’s what I was stating. Lol He’s a smart man to take on that position because it would be a much more chill job and pays much higher I’m sure. Also don’t forget he also did The Drew Carey Show and Whose Line Is It Anyway which were moderately successful.

[@lasmejoradas]

I love how they keep the 70s aesthetic! Plus Drew is the best choice to take over for Bob, both legendary

[@hiltonlive32grnrngr]

After George Gray tells a contestant to "come on down!" I like the way he always adds after that "You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!"

[@christiancollins4264]

Anna Loveberry Babycakes they’ve been doing that since Johnny Olson

[@jackmeyhoffer5107]

@@hiltonlive32grnrngr Nobody delivered it better than Johnny Olson did. Watch some of the pre-1986 shows.

[@cafezo87934]

the BEST game show on TV. ever.

[@peternesbitt]

It surprises me that so many contestants drastically under bid on just about everything. The trip from LA to Palm Springs in a limo plus 3 nights in the Hard Rock Cafe Hotel. The bidding usually starts around $650 when the actual price is $2,750. If you plan on going on the show look up the prices of things like Hyundai, Honda, smart TV's, home computers, laptops, etc.

[@YouAreBreathing]

The wide shot at around 0:59 shows how small the studio is. I thought it was bigger than that.

[@forrestgumball]

It's tiny in there man. The stage is only about 40 feet wide.

[@PromotedPawn]

It’s a dias and 3 doors. Everything else is set dressing and camera angles.

[@ReneeStevens98]

I'd LOVE to see more episodes like this... behind the scenes!

[@iiawesomej]

@@aleksandrrozentsvit2164 I can answer a few of those question. 1) If the player loses, the prizes go back to the warehouse. 3) The prices on the games are able to be taken off, and they are able to digitally print out prices and stick them on the games. Hope these answered a few of them.

[@thihal123]

For me, Bob Barker is Price Is Right

[@pollutingpenguin2146]

So basically you won’t be allowed to be a contestant on the show if you’re introverted. Thereby having eliminated about half the country.

[@chitownbearsfan34]

Yggdrasil Tree Of Life Why would someone want to be on this show anyways? I'd rather be on millionaire and win some decent money instead of having to pay out of pocket for taxes on lame prizes.

[@blindriv3r]

Yeah, you will often see more introverted people on Jeopardy though,,,the mandatory 'chat' portions in the beginning can be pretty awkward lol

[@PWRslide_TV]

Half? More like ¾

[@DexM47]

Nope, it's really half. According to MBTI stats.

[@ChristopherOvrebo]

I'm introverted and I got to be on some Vegas, non televised version. I want to say it was at the MGM? No idea if it still is. That was about 10 years ago.

[@dtvfan24]

great seeing it, i remember when UK had its own version but sadly didnt do well in ratings. we also had family feud called family fortunes

[@fion3943]

Basically to get on the show, you have to act like a maniac, pass through rounds of interviews and wait in line for hours. Also, don't forget the taxes you'll have to pay for your prizes if you do win.

[@jackson5116]

you'll have to pay tax either way, because those who don't appear on stage get "parting gifts" which are cheap, so their tax is minimal, but still.

[@justageneraluser]

@@aleksandrrozentsvit2164 I remember reading somewhere once that they do the "from LA" thing just to have the price of the trip, but if you win you can actually fly from wherever you live. (Not counting the sometimes very local trips they have, like a trip to Santa Monica, which are provided via a car service)

[@joosunkmybattleship]

You get to be surrounded by hardcore fans, experience a legendary and fun show, and you get a chance to win prizes. It's just how you spin it

[@kaifreeman286]

@@aleksandrrozentsvit2164 Apparently South African Airway's doesn't depart from LAX because I notice that everytime that show has a trip to go there (South Africa), the contestant has to leave from DC via Dulle's Airport in VA. With your main question, I think you would just have to explain to the producer your situation because that would be just downright stupid. (lol)

[@CharlesWhite-wh4cc]

@@jackson5116 do they still offer parting gifts? They used to show what they got. But I never see anything advertised for the LOOSERS. LOL

[@3tequila]

That's awesome! Would love to see a full length doc on how this show is made. If you win a car, do you have to take it? Can you sell it back to the dealership for cash?

[@AtWordsPoetic]

You can refuse any or all prizes won but you don’t get a cash equivalent. If you accept, you also accept tax/title/license responsibility in the case of a car. But you literally get a BRAND NEW CAR hand delivered to your house from California.

[@kimbycurtismatthewswinstion]

I've known Drew Carey and George gray since 2011 that's when I first discovered the price is right for the first time I was only 7 years old

[@subterraneanhomesickalien666]

When I heard Drew Carey was taking over for Bob Barker I had a dream that very night how he had changed everything. When you came on down you had to crowd surf.

[@stenbak88]

I wanted to be on the show with Bob Barker so badly growing up and the the year I was old enough he retired

[@Matt_Hatt3r]

What's wrong with grandfather clocks?!?! I'd be totally pumped to win one of those!

[@DJAJ101]

Because they're not "exciting" enough anymore. Roku has a channel where all they play is old episodes of the Price is Right and almost every episode had a grandfather clock. Just a sign of the times I guess.

[@puppetshack4931]

I love the old nostalgic set.....

[@CharlesWhite-wh4cc]

And the cue music, and the old games, and the models, and the way alotta things are done. I hate when free asks the contestants if they want to say hi to someone at home. Why? cause it's lame. Who cares.

[@virulentSI]

I m so glad Drew took over

[@ittybittymouthful]

I was a big fan of the game shows as a kid in the 80s. But this was my fav. Watching those showcase showdowns felt like christmas morning every time, especially when they motorhomes in them!

[@sshuffield70]

You do know that there has never ever been a motor home in the Showcase Showdown. The only prize they have given away in the Showcase Showdown is an Audi.

[@truckcamper5751]

I've been on it twice lots of fun but it's a all day event👍

[@brandonmartin-moore5302]

That's interesting what he says about not just being excited at the start, and maintaining the excitement.

[@Outlawrockman]

I honestly couldn’t think of anything better than being on the Price is Right, even if I lose spectacularly

[@SuperNoncents]

I did this show and let's make a deal in 2018. Had lots of fun at both.

[@marineguy4eva]

This is where Don Fransico in his Sabado Gigante run beats this show. He would have anyone on the games regarless of how exciting or melow they were. In fact, some of the most memorable contestants of all times where those that had just won a big prize like a 'brand new car', thousands of dollars, but would show no emotion, be too shy or would emotionally freeze and be speechless. I grew up watching the Price is Right but eventually, the cookie cutter contestants became too repetitive. I do miss Bob Barker hosting it though.

[@theKevronHarris]

I agree. Won't get on TPIR because like what said. Also, the cars they give away is very repetitive and they prefer base model cars but sometimes midrange or top.

[@cita_m]

I wonder if there are people who wait in line just to watch the show, and are 'crowd fillers' and know they won't be selected. I'd like to just be in the audience, honestly.

[@XMguy]

“This is Rod Roddy speaking for “The Price is Right”. A Mark Goodson Television Production”. We miss you man.

I once went to a TPIR taping (Bob Barker was the host). I wasn't chosen as a contestant, along with who I went with. I remember every contestant who made it on stage losing. I brought bad luck. :/

[@PoweredbyJESUS7]

So basically, the audience knows ahead of time who is picked to come on down. On TV they act like they’re surprised, but they already know that they’re gonna be picked. And it’s not authentic because producer picks those who are overly animated or have energy. It should be based on random who is in line

Funny how they didn't mention that you have to pay taxes on the prizes before you actually get them.

Good luck paying those taxes. 😳
