Take a ride on Mark Goodson's casting couch?

Is there a difference between being a Price intern and a CBS page working on Price?
Fact To Make You Feel Old: Just about every contestant who appears in a Price is Right Teen Week episode from here on out has only known a world where Drew Carey has been the host.

  • Just leave the set; that’d be terrific.

10 years ago, when I had a similar question, I wrote Mr. Dobkowitz at the show.  He responded with a letter stating you need to be in a college program in which you would earn credits.  My suggestion would be to contact Mr. Richards' at the office on Whilshire Blvd.

That was how you became a model.

I believe the TPIR office, and by extension Mr. Richards' office, are on the TV City lot.

When I interned, I sent a cover letter and resume to Roger, stating I majored in Game Show development. The best four months of my entire college career was spent at TVC, but that was back in the day when no one was working in a toxic environment, and no one was afraid for their jobs or of being associated with the fan base.

If it's anything like my TV internship, you handle a lot of odds-and-ends that producers may be too busy to handle, but also learn how the show works. It just varies from day to day.

The pages, if I'm not mistaken, handle audience members and tours, and make sure the folks waiting in line are okay. I don't think they're as directly involved with the producers, as opposed to an intern.

Oh, and I'm guessing interns aren't paid either. Again, I'm basing that on my two TV internships.
