Really? With everything in that lovely shade of '70s Kitchen Appliance Brown?

Sarcasm....they always say "the set looks just the same as in the 70s" (except color, of course). So, changing the set to 1972 (except color) would require little to no work at all.

If they wanted a color choice...look at 1983-2001ish. The set looked good then.

There is no doubt in my mind that the daytime show needs to start using the six-digit Showcase podiums from the MDSs.

But this fits on the five-digit podiums quite nicely!

I think Plinko needs to be 5 stories high.

There is no doubt in my mind that you are PJTP, as usual. Please give one logical reason why they should add the six-digit podia. Matter of fact, how often does someone win over $100,000 on the daytime show?

/Paging Matthew Lesko...
//oh, BTW, you were wrong about Drew Carey not getting the gig.

EDIT: It appears others have already addressed Bandit's asinine post.

look at the 70s set, because, despite the poopy brown, it looked much more tasteful than today's. They didn't have stars all over everything, for starters.

Agreed.

I'll second that motion.

Besides, the current big doors looks like someone used SMPTE color bars as a palette for the colors.

Wait.. I missed something, a press release , I dunno. When did the upcoming season of Price is Right get moved to Fox?

Didn't you hear? After buying the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Washington Post and USA Today, Fox bought CBS -- and also NBC, ABC, CW, CNN, Nickelodeon, SoapNet, GSN, Al Jazeera, and the Underwater Basketweaving Network.

Rupert owns everything. Coming up next: Randy West announces Hour 257 of "When Game Show Hosts Attack." ;-)

Here's a change I'd like to see...no more summer reruns. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the summer reruns started when Barker started getting too old and didn't have the energy to work year round. Well, now there's a younger guy and I'm sure he can handle taping episodes year round.

They started doing the reruns in Summer 1976, so Bob's age probably isn't the reason - or at least the key one - why the summer reruns were adopted. Assuming that, then, why *did* they start doing the summer reruns?

"Net Worth" where the object is to kick a soccer ball into a net. The more small items you get right, the larger your net becomes. [/quote] And that would work if his hobby was soccer and not photography. (Never mind the "On the Nose" tangent which has been covered already.)

So, you lose sir. Enjoy your consolation prize of Wonka bars.

Drew could do an inspiration kick and David Beckham could make an appearance.

Well, then, maybe they could do a game about developing a sense of humor. Get it? DEVELOPING?
