The Price Is Right/Trivia: Difference between revisions

** The Showcases written by Carey in Season 37 were almost instantly called "Drewcases" after their writer (and, most of the time, the only guy laughing at the "jokes").

** The fansite [http://www.golden-road.net Golden-Road.net] has a whole lexicon of fan nicknames, to the point where they would need a separate article. Among them are "That's Two Ninth!" (during a stretch where That's Too Much! had its solution in the second or ninth slots) and embarrassingly-cutesy nicknames for the pricing games ("Cliffy" for Cliff Hangers, "Baggy" for It's In The Bag, etc.).

** [[Bill Cullen]] was famous as a panelist on ''[[Ive Got a Secret]]'' and host of his daily radio show ''Pulse'' (and had hosted a variety of game shows prior to ''Price'').

** Bob Barker was famous for hosting ''Truth Or Consequences''; for viewers of KNXT in California, he was the producer of the 1969-71 game show ''Lucky Pair'' — the show which gave [[Treasure Hunt US|Geoff Edwards]] and [[Family Feud|Richard Dawson]] their first hosting assignments.

** Drew Carey was famous for [[The Drew Carey Show|his self-titled sitcom]] and the American edition of ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway]]''.

** Some contestants are famous as well. Besides those mentioned on [[Retroactive Recognition]], [http://www.youtube.com/user/ijustine iJustine] was a contestant at one point, as was Andrew Copeland of the rock band Sister Hazel.

** The "incorrect number" sound on Pathfinder was taken from the short-lived show ''[[Trivia Trap]]''.

** The sound effects from Penny Ante could also be heard on ''[[The Jokers Wild]]''.

** Don Pardo was an NBC announcer for several years before ''Price'', and later announced on Art Fleming's ''[[Jeopardy (TV)|Jeopardy]]'' Don would make ''Price'' come a virtual full circle when he did a prize description for the Cliff Hangers game during a special week of game show salutes on ''The Today Show'' in 2002.

** Johnny Gilbert hosted ''Music Bingo'' in 1958, and has been announcing Alex Trebek's ''Jeopardy!'' since its 1984 return.
