The Price Is Right/Memes


 * "[Name], come on down!"
 * "It's a new car!"
 * Or, when Rich Fields was the announcer, "IT'S A NEW CAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!"
 * "Telephone pole screamers".
 * "$1, Bob/Drew!"
 * "$X+1, Bob/Drew!"
 * "$420, Bob/Drew!"
 * "Gentlemen/Ladies/O mighty sound effects lady..."
 * "Hold my hand. Say Alakazam!"
 * Samoans lifting Bob Barker and inflicting all sorts of damage on him.
 * Holly Hallstrom and her tendency to trip up.
 * "Help control the pet population: Have your pets spayed or neutered!"
 * Ezekiel Barker.
 * Fansite golden-road.net has a lexicon that has attained meme status as well.
 * "Exacta"
 * "Wipeout"
 * "El Skunko"
 * "Can't Stop The Dob/Fool The Fingers", which declines to "Dobstopper/Fingerstopper" when a contestant is Genre Savvy (or lucky) enough to beat Roger Dobkowitz's or Kathy Greco's Nintendo Hard setups. Also applies in hindsight to "Can't Jive The Jay", for original producer Jay Wolpert's own hard setups (most notably, as seen on the DVD set, a $7,010 car used in Lucky Seven).
 * "WSD"
 * "First Four Breakfast Club/Midday Revue"
 * "Garf Of The Century"
 * "Friggin' Random Boat/Trailer/All-Trip Showcase", commonly shortened to "FRBS", "FRTS", and "FRATS" respectively.
 * Golden-Road.net's posters also have embarrassingly cutesy nicknames for the pricing games on show recaps.
 * The losing horns.
 * Less commonly used are the Big Win Sirens.
 * "...all this can be yours, if the price is right."
 * "You bid on the merchandise we present. Go as high as you like, stop whenever you like...it goes to the one who bids highest to the actual retail price without going over, and the big winner comes back tomorrow/next week and takes on three new challengers."
 * "FRIED CHICKEN!"
 * "Once it's stopped, we can't start it again for 37 hours."
