The Official Price is Right Thread

I can see the all-Plinko special, after all. That falls on a Friday. I don't have classes on Fridays.

What happened to the Dream Car Week and Big Money Week that was being shown on that calendar back in July?

▲ Vanished without a trace, at least for now. Maybe they changed their minds about when and where to pull the trigger on those gimmicks.

As they say in pro wrestling, "Card subject to change."

I got one question regarding two episodes that got pre-empted significantly or completely in some affiliates in favor of an expanded edition of The Early Show during a tornado and another kind of disaster - did these episodes re-air during the summer, or are they scheduled to re-air before the start of Season 42?  It would be kind of odd to not see one of them re-air, since there was a rare More or Less winner on one of those episodes.

Also, did they or will they replay Big Money week? I wouldn't be shocked if Big Money Week airs during the final week of reruns, as the first Pay The Rent win occurred that week, and that would be a surefire way to close off the "Priceless Summer".

It looks as if, since GSN won't be airing anything different in terms of classics so far, I will be recording TPIR on a daily basis until at least next spring.

Time for the last gasp of Season 41...

[tpirrules1972]

Fucking Christ. If these DOBs keep recurring next season I'm just skipping the Showcase segment.

Y'know, of all the things I'm having to get used to here versus the old GSN forums, the lack of a language barrier is still a big one for me. ^^; (Maybe because I try not to use "language" myself, in real life or even on the Internet, if I can possibly help it...)

[Deleted]

I never use bad language in real life nor the Internet for any given circumstance. Even though my parents had a habit of swearing, it never influenced me one bit.  Heck, my mother even smoked when I was a kid, and I never had a desire to pick it up ever.

Maybe this is probably the only game show forum on the Web where open swearing is allowed, perhaps?

[Mandoli]

Okay... My guideline on the language is defined in the rules. Don't use it as every other word. Once in a while is fine. Your second language isn't. Just so y'all know where I stand.

Personally, I found it amusing that GSN would do stuff like air a promo for Dog Eat Dog over and over where one of the contestants said "payback's a bitch", let Carnie swear on The Newlywed Game, etc., but you could never use those words on their boards.

As far as Price goes, does anyone know when the new season starts?

[Kaos]

According to the www.priceisright.com, the new season starts on September 23.

Edited your post to remove the extra letter in your URL. Just wanted to let you know.

That week of the 23rd is going to be super busy for me. Man...

[tpirrules1972]

Note that also on the Friday of premiere week - 27 September - is also the All-Plinko show.

I'll probably miss the first play or so due to class, but I should be able to see it otherwise.
