The Price Is Right/Funny: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

So naturally, ''[[The Price Is Right]]'' has created a ton of Funny Moments.

----

 

== In General... ==

** Or when the opposite happens and a contestant who bid, say, $899 gets one-upped by another contestant bidding $900, only to find out their bid was on the nose, meaning they get a $500 bonus while the punk who pulled that cheap shot gets to wallow back to their seat.

* Double Showcase Winners. Most contestants will bid conservatively, limiting how often these big wins come along... but when they do, the reaction on their faces is always spectacular.

 

== Bill Cullen (1956-65) ==

* August 28, 1964 (nighttime): The third-to-last nighttime episode of the original series saw Bill plugging the [[Home Game]] (''Bid It Right: The Price Is Right Card Game''), only to discover that the returning champion didn't get her second copy the previous week.

{{quote|'''Bill''': This outfit gives away thousands of dollars worth of prizes and they are the chintziest bunch with this game! You know, I've been trying to get one for-let me see... (''opens up the box and looks inside, then closes it back up again'') ...I don't want it. Now, let me explain how the game is played — first of all, someone comes in here and takes my place.}}

 

== Bob Barker (1972-2007) ==

* June 6, 2002: The big reveal in Flip Flop was averted by a stuck price cover. Although the price was revealed enough that the outcome was known, Bob and the contestant ended up [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQmI8Clfms4 ripping the cover in half], shaking the game board considerably in the process.

* October 2, 2003: Bob spins the Big Wheel for a wheelchair-bound contestant...and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGGokl1Rmgg fails to get it all the way around.] His response? "This is the most humiliating moment of my life." And then Bob hands the microphone to the contestant and ''spins the wheel with both hands''.

 

== Drew Carey (2007-Present) ==

* May 11, 2012 (Mother's Day show): Edited out of the actual show, but when special guest [[The Brady Bunch|Florence Henderson]] and her "eye candy" model Johannes drove out the car for Lucky $even, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7AJxCzE4tQ Johannes accidentally steers the car into the frame of Door 3].

{{quote|'''George Gray''': ...a ''used'' SUV!}}

 

== Dennis James (nighttime, 1972-77) ==

* (Nothing as of yet, but here just in case.)
