The Price Is Right (September 3, 1976)

[@samidellaidella532]

I love watching these, particularly the products. Every now and again there will be a product or brand, long defunct, that brings back good (or bad) memories. Growing up in the 70s and early 80s was a treat....then the world went to hell in a handbasket LOL.

[@juanratliff9000]

I agree 100% with you sir I was a child of the 1970s and eighties things were a lot simpler back then we went outside to play we watch cartoons and we also had respect for one another

[@AuthenticallyAshley]

@@juanratliff9000 sounds pretty boring. I’ll stick with my technology and just reminisce about the old days. But no people didn’t just “get along” and be nice to each other. There was lots of abuse and stigma back then, so I don’t know what you’re talking about.😅

[@LindaMerchant-bq2hp]

Things more expensive

[@joelsterling1445]

thanks for posting It is nice to see episodes of the show in the pre green section/bonus spin era

[@0rangevale]

Looks like an original home recording from a mid 70's model VCR. At the time these devices were very expensive to purchase at $1500 or more. Thanks for preserving and uploading.

[@AJ17_]

At the beginning of the video, you can see it was recorded off Game Show Network, which didn't debut until 1994. It also says "Game Show Network" in the bottom left corner of the screen the entire episode.

[@TheEggplantThatAteChicago]

Fascinating to see the original rules for Bullseye. Thank you!

[@jordandaluz2129]

Stephanie really is a 1970s cutie pie for sure!

[@ralmcg]

I would love to see Diana, Janice, Holly, and even Anita be on "The Price Is Right" in guest appearances in the future. It would be nice to honor the original models.

[@georgemaster9271]

ralmcg Maybe when CBS celebrates the show's 50th anniversary in 2021.Hopefully Drew can ask about their experiences on the show.

[@wns808]

@@georgemaster9271 doubt it .. word has it Dian and Holly had some beef with Barker and got into some legal battles with Barker outside TPIR and probably don’t want anything to do with TPIR after what they dealt with with Barker. Anitra I think left peacefully

[@suelee3391]

The current bullseye winning range is $10-$12.

[@shannonherbert5626]

I was born during this showcase showdown ;)

[@bobbyheckard2976]

Somebody needs to go play with the rabbit ear while this is on lol

[@kurtkauffman4326]

9/3/1976,to be exact.The remaining days of the Mini Dresses.Afterward,they went out of vogue.

[@johnlamphier3515]

That contestant looked like Vicki Lawrence

[@tyrese3745]

All right! I knew you'd find a classic TPIR episode from the Bicentennial era.

[@wschmrdr]

38:05 Should bring it back, even if for April Fools. Works surprisingly well. Same with 21:55 for that matter.

[@videox222ify]

thank you for posting

[@KT72273]

I'm glad they updated Bullseye so they don't start the target so high. If you got only 1 chance then what does it matter? My guess is the reason contestants get up to 3 chances is that it would take longer to explain the concept of 1 shot being closest.

[@lucyflorey9152]

Fedders air conditioners were made in our small town in Illinois...Effingham

[@millenniumman75]

14:56 - A rare time of seeing Anitra and Janice reversed in the Danger Price Game. 16:46 and 16:48 - those two ladies were going for the "unisex" haircut style. 25:48 - a 1972 original! 34:28 - haha

[@jnadle1]

And that Danger Price cue would normally be used for showcases.

[@bobby1988]

If you watch the clip of Janice crashing the MG in Lucky Seven, you'll see that the contestant in that clip is wearing the same jumpsuit the Beauties are wearing in this episode.

[@millenniumman75]

OMG - nobody knew where the models got their outfits back then! I don't remember seeing it in the credits. She is wearing the same outfit, though. It was 1976, so the theme fit considering the year.

[@zachhoran]

People were confusing Bullseye and Grocery Game even several years later,

[@jnadle1]

21:55 It's time for the Family Feud!

[@nicholasswann8334]

Jason Nadle family feud theme used for showcase one

[@jnadle1]

And only a few months after Family Feud started.

[@wschmrdr]

Used for the showcase? That's rare...

[@Cidredd3]

I laugh every time the TV glitches, because the voices get distorted and funnier!

[@Cidredd3]

An example is at 6:49. "And, big money, aNyThInG cAn HaPpEn! EvErYbOdY's (normal voice) winning!"

[@jovetj]

That's a tracking problem with the VCR. It's pretty annoying since it's pretty regular.

[@nextbarker2702]

This was near Anitra's end on TPIR.

[@willsco76]

I was born 14 days later

[@tyrese3745]

27:55 - Have you guys noticed the price range on Bullseye? Almost similar to the current one today.

[@cliffordshafran9250]

Yes, except it made the game too hard under the 1976 prices of grocery items.

[@gameshowguy2000]

Yep.. they do NOT add up like in the Grocery Game.

[@AarHan3]

44:02 - "Stay tuned for _Gambit_ next, over most of these CBS Stations!" Sadly, both _Gambit_ and _TPIR_ 's Anitra Ford would be gone at the end of the year.

[@MrSplat1972]

oh anitra ..she had legs up to her chin 🤤

[@tnate6004]

The day this aired was the 25th anniversary of the debut of Search for Tomorrow on CBS.

[@tyrese3745]

And Double Dare (w/ host Alex Trebek of "High Rollers" and, of course, "Jeopardy!" fame) would take over the time-slot some three months later on December 13, 1976.

[@nextbarker2702]

That was a strange price in 3X's, $4206

[@offworldatom8850]

I was 5 months old when this was recorded 😲

[@firstnamelastname6171]

3 overbids at 14:00. That's rare.

[@greenbrown7776]

That was cheap-ace furniture!

[@Rlotpir1972]

It happened again during the 1990's.

[@marcg3179]

Why does Bob sound like the robot from the potato " Smash " advert from the 70s lol

[@AJ17_]

Probably due to being an old VHS recording from the mid-90s.

[@elsazavarella3758]

Good days good times the ladies were pretty dress pretty in real natural no big phony baloney

[@ChihuahuaboyDH]

Is this the Season 5 premiere episode? R.I.P., Johnny Olson, Mark Goodson & Bill Todman. :'(

[@JimTheGatorMan]

Yes

[@randyrunnels7099]

OK someone else has this exact same exact episode of this show and has it listed as airing on September 24, 1976. So what is the correct air date for this episode? Thank you.

[@edwardsimmons8758]

When you're coming back with more Tpir episodes

[@WarioBarker]

Edward Simmons No idea, sorry. I only have a scant few episodes left that aren't online yet (at least two), but none have been transferred from DVD and my desktop computer is problematic at the best of times.

[@danbarker4857]

How long was that rule used in BULLSEYE "nearest to the bullseye"?

[@LindaMerchant-bq2hp]

Ide like to see poker game of that year

[@danbarker4857]

That @6:47, when Jack's dropping money, is that from the CBS era?

[@libertubey2199]

Dan Barker Based on both Jack's hairdo and clothes, it looks like it, but it could also be from TJW's first syndicated season (1977-78).

[@cliffordshafran9250]

Well, those were intersting early rules for Bullseye. Obviously, the game was much harder, and she would've won under the current rules. How many more playings did it have before settling for the $5-6 target range & any shot hitting the target qualifying for the hidden bullseye? I can see people confusing this game for Grocery Game in its early days. But, at least Bob never used "arrows in your quiver" in his description.

[@Tubewings]

They changed it to the $5-$6 Bullseye in the game's 11th playing on the November 11, 1976 episode. I assume they changed it to any target being eligible for the hidden Bullseye at the same time as well.

[@danbarker4857]

I guess it was, 1977 when the Danger Price board was moved to center stage?

[@Rlotpir1972]

And moved to the center door in 1986.

[@randydelaney7804]

So weird that a thousand dollars was a lot of money then. That people got so excited when they got a dollar lol.

[@AndrewMacpherson-pv2ns]

Anitra, Dian and Janice.😊

[@LindaMerchant-bq2hp]

I get bonus game and keep and give away games mixed up
