[@magneto8002]

RIP Bob Barker.

[@brianfoster4664]

Johnny Olson is on fire here!

[@AndyKat75]

Bob barker is the best host

[@swilliams937]

I remember watching those at night as a kid.

[@burr1aj]

Gotta be one of the best showcases of all time, based on inflation. Unbelievable.

[@michaelfalkner1186]

Not really -- that is about $53000, and there have been nighttime Showcases well over $100000. (And even a few daytime "special show" Showcases in the area of about $80-90K.)

[@ShirZanKoochooloo]

Thank you….Grew up with Bob Barker and the Price is Right ❤️❤️❤️

[@snake9911]

I always thought that the nighttime price is right episodes were great. Holly sure looked fabulous back then 😉☺️. Both showcase contestants look great. I wonder what they look like today. Past price is right episodes are great to watch. Great memories ☺️. Thanks 👍.

[@andrewps84]

I had a huge crush on Holly…by far my favorite model on the Price is Right.

[@jerseyfla]

Kelly had a very modest dress but was she beautiful!

[@JohnSmith-4U]

They are prob grandmas by now and all wrinkled

[@snake9911]

@@JohnSmith-4U Once I Saw Holly on a video awhile back and she had put on a lot of weight.

[@bluebear1985]

On a related note, during one playing of the Race Game, they had season tickets to the Lakers, Rams, Dodgers, and Kings available to be won. If I'm correct, the contestant got two of them correct. This was in the early 80s, and the contestant had no idea what sport the Kings played. Not too many people did until later in the decade.

[@TheEggplantThatAteChicago]

They offered that all the time.

[@tinamarie86]

I think they offered Raiders tickets during a playing of the Race Game once, but I could be wrong

[@eyehatefarcebook11]

Tina Marie All 4 of L.A. teams were offered on that several times back in the 80's, early 90's.

[@bbqking7410]

@@eyehatefarcebook11, nowadays, that distinction would be for teams like Dodgers/Angels(MLB), Rams/Chargers(NFL), Kings/Ducks(NHL) & Lakers/Clippers(NBA), if you know what I mean!!!

[@johnnyballenatl]

bluebear1985 Yeah, when some guy from Edmonton named Wayne Gretzky came to town!

[@georgemaster9952]

It would be nice to see other Bob Barker(night time) TPIR shows.

[@Musicradio77Network]

This was Bob Barker’s last show for the syndicated nighttime version, because he was focused on the CBS daytime version where he was going strong. The syndicated nighttime version did not return until 1985 where they brought in the late Tom Kennedy to host “The Price Is Right” for one season until 1986, and again in 1994 for the syndicated version with Doug Davidson with a different set, but not all that great. The syndicated nighttime version was originally hosted by Dennis James during the first years while doing the first season daytime version in 1972.

[@michaelfalkner1186]

Look at one of the prizes in the first Showcase if you want an idea as to why they are hard to find (and why the Pluto daytime channel started with September of 1982...)

[@allenjones3130]

Kelly's reaction to seeing the new car was commendably restrained.

[@GabrielSilva-xc5lj]

I have a good news for you, this is a link for the penultimate episode, taped on the same day as this episode. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqrVZ6GAedCogas

[@a.grimes4202]

​@@Musicradio77NetworkI kind of feel like The “New” Price is Right from 1994-1995 gets a bad rap because a.) It dared to be different, and b.) Bob and other people on the long-running daytime version would run down Davidson’s version every chance they got, a very unprofessional move, IMHO. I dug the differences for the most part, from 3 contestants in Contestants’ Row, Burton Richardson as a great announcer who should have taken over from Rod Roddy on the daytime version after his death, that smooth jazz cover of the theme, even *The Price **-is-** WAS Right* (used more often than not as TPiR daytime usually taped at the same time as Davidson’s show; thus the big wheel most often was not available for the classic Showcase Showdown format on his version), and the single player Showcase with the Range Game-esque format for the bidding portion. I don’t know how hot a take it is, but I think it’s rather criminal it only lasted ≈4 months.

[@theresacoringgray6885]

I love watching these games back in the day as a kid and even now as an adult 😊

[@MiracleSanchez10]

Nostalgia brought me here and that car though classic lol

[@simontills7090]

Gonzales did pretty good in the jewelry biz. Funny to see the fur, considering Bob's stated love for animals.

[@bluebear1985]

I think the time they included the Rams tickets in the package was during a playing of Danger Price.

[@whammy850]

That is one hawt Firebird in the Showcases.

[@RikoJAmado]

I had a black 84 Trans-Am....in 2004.

[@georgef551]

Cliffhangers, before the $20, $30, $40 Rule.

[@booberry349]

georgef551 andbefore the yodely guy

[@georgef551]

@@booberry349 His actual name since the game's creation is Hans. It's never been made official, but that's the actual name, and was used in the 40th anniversary piece celebrating the game (There's a video of it here on KZbin.)

[@Thunderwing88]

If it wasn’t someone messed up by putting the $40 item first. Cliffhangers had been around since 1976.

[@jasonbeard4713]

Does anyone have the complete first playing of Cliff Hangers?

[@setheriah]

That was a weird placement of items in cliffhangers

[@JasonRourhier]

Grew up with Bob Barker on The Price Is Right & Peter Marshall on The Hollywood Squares among all the game show greats who are no longer around!!

[@Tubewings]

OK... BTW, that second showcase was intriguing. It looks as though those four tickets are for events in California (not much of a showcase there), and then you find out that it's an international holiday (plus the car). I wonder if the baseball game was hosted by the Giants or the Fighters. P.S.: Johnny, even though they moved to Anaheim, they were still called the Los Angeles Rams.

[@alexeimscruz2893]

3:20 it never gets old when Johnny Olson shouts "A NEW CAR!!!" I look forward to it always... however, her reaction says it all: it's a gaz guzzling lang yacht ...

[@NickCMedia]

The catamaran was too big. Besides, it was a nighttime show. They could've done the same for two cars.

[@matchpoint14]

Bob is 1/8 American Indian. I did not know this until recently

[@JaniceCarter-ws7lu]

Mum mum favorite show, then the young and the restless , guiding lights and bold and the beautiful Bob had the best job in the world That Pontiac was nice😶

[@davidwhite3180]

I’ve often wondered down through the years how did they choose who to cmon down. Randomly or what?

[@johneckert1365]

I watched a documentary that said that they walked through the crowd waiting outside and picked contestants that would be interesting.

[@Tubewings]

Just don't tell that to anyone living in L.A. or Orange County.

[@Tubewings]

That looks like a very odd placement for the One Right Price game. What, they couldn't fit both prizes behind one door?

[@Freeway4sho]

Is this the first & last time the game was "staged" like this?

[@myronbedner989]

I don't remember the night time Price is right
