Pretty impressive, I have to say.  There's also six pages of classic Bob clips to watch.

Yes, I recognized Rich.

Oh, wait, you meant A BOARD MEMBER!!

Interesting video.  I still remain fascinated by the fact that Drew gets his own private dressing room he doesn't have to share with anybody, and Bob never did.

From Bart's Bio:
Quote
The main Director out of Goodson’s stable had a reputation as being “difficult”
Breslow?

I also noticed that the video from Price is Right Live in Vegas was using the 30th Anniversary Las Vegas doors. This I knew, but I thought they had painted over them.

Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

The way it reads makes it sound like Alter...but it's not very clear.

To be completely honest, I'd rather have a "difficult" director who can do their job well over someone "fun" who can't.

Due to a talent conflict, a new Director disappeared.
Say what? He writes like he directs. The old director disappeared.

It has to be Breslow. There was nothing "difficult" about Paul Alter.

How about a "difficult" director who misses game-winning reveals and doesn't know which end of a jib camera is up?

I would dare say Bob would NEVER allow all this behind the scenes stuff to be seen. Looks like everyone's having a genuine fun time.

Rich Fields
In 2005 Rich Fields broke the world record for announcing the most differently titled game shows in a single season at seven (The Price is Right, Beat The Clock, Match Game, Let’s Make A Deal, Family Feud and Card Sharks). The previous record was five shows and held by legendary announcer Johnny Olson.

Well, that's rather dubious.

True...and, as a math teacher, I shudder at that, but whoever wrote that simply left off PYL from the Gameshow Marathon, which would bring the total to 7.  So, number correct, list wrong...:)

/so, they forgot the best show of the Marathon?  Ouch...
//my opinion, of course; I could be wrong...

Okay, I'll bite...who was it, and what part of the video? I'm guessing the mustachioed guy in the yellow sweater vest. Feel free to whooooosh me.

No whoooshes necessary, I wouldn't know if I hadn't met him at GSC's.

It's Scott (MSTieScott), the young man who is quoted saying what a great job Drew is doing.   Though since he's not credited as being associated with the show, it seems sort of odd to just have this random guy with a nametag giving his thumbs-up.

There's actually a a 2-minute feature on Scott in addition to the clip that has been already mentioned.

After watching the video of Scott, I saw some spiderweb lights above the 3rd door. I wonder if the show is preparing something for Halloween.

Shouldn't that only count as two (Gameshow Marathon counting as one series)?
