[@TheEggplantThatAteChicago]

Really interesting to see how different this was in the beginning.

these two hostesses, true goddesses. gosh! the quintessence of u.s. female beauty of the 70s, cannot be imitated....

If things were that cheap today. Life would be better long w gas cheaper

[@sexymama1966]

I like them both but I've been watching the first 2 seasons. If I had a choice to pretend which I would be, Anitra Ford!

[@traemcpherson7266]

The change to "pick the three highest" makes more sense... But, now I understand why we needed all 6 slots. This version of the rules explains why they designed the set this way.

[@willmack5909]

I loved seeing Bob come trotting out. Reminds me of when Jim Perry would trot out at the opening of $ale of the Century.

[@justinmay3451]

Hi Lo was the 13th pricing game to debut - following Any Number; Bonus Game; Double Prices; Grocery Game; Bullseye 1; Clock Game; Double Bullseye; Five Price Tags; Most Expensive; Money Game Give Or Keep; and Range Game.

Oooh. Ooh. "If they know WHEN... The Price is Right"... I always heard it as "If The Price is Right"

I hope someone can put up fresh S1 of episode of TPIR.

Hi-Lo is my favorite game (yeah, I know I'm a freak) but I'm glad they changed the way it was played.

[@Musicradio77Network]

The Hi-Lo game was included in the 1986 edition of “The Price Is Right” home game by MB/Hasbro.

[@traemcpherson7266]

It was one of my favs as a kid. The dedicated fans, love other games besides Plinko.

[@nextbarker2702]

How long was this HILO format used?

[@johnnastrom9400]

@@traemcpherson7266 For some reason, Hi-Lo was one of my least favorite games as a kid. Whenever a contestant went up on stage and then they cut away to the girls rolling the Hi-Lo set across the stage, I used to say "oh no."

[@traemcpherson7266]

@@johnnastrom9400 Haha. I’ve had that feeling about certain games. Honorable Mentions: Penny Ante, Check Game, Golden Road, Easy As 1, 2, 3. Among the less popular games!

Maybe, TTD will be on Buzzr now that they have TNG.

[@dakotareeves3939]

This is a early 1973 episode of The Price is Right on CBS and it debuts a new pricing game named "Hi-Lo". Original airdate: 4/9/73

[@gameshowguy2000]

Does anyone know when the current format of Hi Lo began?

[@smadaf]

"It really doesn't make any difference." Exactly! It's good that they changed Hi-Lo after this.

18:20 That Magnavox TV/Stereo, adjusted for inflation, would cost $5 445 today!!! That's CRAZY lollll

[@Musicradio77Network]

8:07 is a record offer for a compilation album “Southern Comfort” featuring a collection of mellow country songs. It was available on 2 CD’s and 2 cassettes, but it was never available as a vinyl set, how sad.

Glad they changed the rules of this game.

[@stevendice6572]

Poor explanation by Bob, misleading for sure just because she picked a 32 cent item first doesn't mean he should suggest that she wants the 49 cent item in the HI row.

[@AustinLaPlante]

I've always hated this game (Hi-Lo)...
