“Oh, that happens here all the time,” Carey said.

“They’ll have a gummy or I’ll smell alcohol on their breath. Not unusual. There was a guy here that was tripping on mushrooms.”

HOSTING DUTIES

Carey took over The Price is Right when the show’s original host Bob Barker retired.

Although Carey kept up the same energy and ease with contestants, he admitted that he never saw himself in this role.

In fact, he admitted that he used to “look down” at game show hosts.

But after having risen the ranks, Carey affirms that the host’s job is so much “fun.”

With Barker’s death anniversary coming up Carey said he wants to do everything he can to keep the show running and entertaining.

“And I want to be a good steward of the show, so I don’t screw it up and wreck it from the very beginning,” he said.

“I just wanted to make sure it was always on.”

WHAT’S IN STORE?

The host admits that he’s a fan of the regular shows for the most part, but would love to take a trip to Seoul, South Korea.

“Maybe do a whole week and have K-pop bands on as special guests to help play the prizes,” he suggested.

“Korea is one of our strongest allies, and I think it would help put a dent in some of the Asian hate that’s out there right now.”

He also revealed that there are certain prizes on the show that he wished he could win.

Carey mentioned that he’s quite fond of traveling and would love to win a cooking trip to Italy, a tour of the Vatican, or a trip to a different island – if he could.

TOUGH LOVE

The Price is Right Hosts

 

The Price is Right first came on TV in 1972. Fans fell in love with the game show so much that it has been on for over 50 years. Throughout that time, the show has had a few different hosts. Find out who they are below.

Bob Barker – 1972 to June 2007 (also became executive producer in 1988)

Drew Carey – October 2007 to present

Dennis James – filled in for Bob in 1974 when he missed four episodes, also hosted the nighttime version

Craig Ferguson – 2014 April Fools Day Special

Drew Carey is known for making jokes at the expense of his contestants.

Earlier this month, the host took a dig at one contestant on The Price is Right, which led fans to praise him for the hilarious moment.

The game show host criticized the contestant who bid just one dollar over the person next to her — a common strategy for getting onto The Price is Right stage.

He took it further, calling out the contestant named Karen for living up to her name.

She also wore a shirt that read “The Original Karen,” in the font of the classic game show.

In another instance, Carey laid into a Price is Right contestant, leading to a pile-on of jokes at the player’s expense.

The game show host commented on a player’s grammatically incorrect shirt.

Players and viewers generally understand that it’s part of the host’s schtick to poke fun at contestants

“Hosting The Price Is Right has been a dream job for me,” Drew told Deadline in August 2021. “I really never thought my safe space would be on a sound stage, wearing a mic, cameras on me constantly, and with millions of people watching. But that’s what The Price Is Right is for me. I love it.”

The Price is Right fans scold contestant for giving ‘stupidest bid ever’ and blast player for ‘just wanting attention’

 

 

THE Price is Right fans have furiously called out a player for wasting his turn on the game with a joke bid.

Viewers noted that even host Drew Carey appeared shocked and confused by how the contestant played the game during Tuesday’s show.

One fan called it the ‘stupidest bid ever,’ while others insisted the player, named Nicholas, only wanted attentionCredit: The Price is Right
Almost halfway through the episode, Drew called a man named Nicholas from the audience to try his chance at making it to the main pricing games.

“Welcome to the show, good luck,” the host, 65, told the audience member as he excitedly made his way down toward the podiums by the stage.

He and three others had to guess the price of a set of workout equipment that included a vertical knee-raise station and a spin bike.

The goal was to give a bid that was the closest to the real price without going over.

Nicholas was the first of The Price is Right players to guess, and he shocked everyone with his response.

“I’m gonna say $1 million,” the contestant said as the normally-raucous crowd remained completely silent.

CONFUSING THE HOST

“Seriously,” Drew asked as he stumbled to say anything else.

“Yeah, it looks like some nice equipment,” Nicholas continued.

“We can put one million on there if you want us to,” Drew said, giving the game show contestant another chance to change his mind.

He didn’t, though, and encouraged Drew to put the bid through.

While Drew accepted the response, the production team was unable to put the price on Nicholas’ podium as it was too large of a number.

The other three players rang in with much lower guesses – $2400, $1250, and $1500.

While reading all of the guesses back, Drew couldn’t help but chuckle when he read out the $1 million bid.

The actual retail value for the workout equipment ended up being $1798, leaving Nicholas’ guess nowhere close to being accurate.

Still, he clapped and cheered for Sandy, who won with her guess of $1500.

Fans at home were furious with Nicholas for taking the place of another audience member only to give that guess.

 

UPSETTING THE FANS

“Bruh I was yelling at my TV Screen over this,” one upset viewer wrote on an online forum. “$ 1 million for an exercise bike? Come on.”

“Wish they could send somebody like that back to the audience,” a second suggested.

“The best part was that the audience just sat there in silence,” a third fan wrote. “They recognized a clown when they saw one.”

“Feel bad for everyone in the audience whose dream was to come on down,” a fourth angry viewer said.

One fan called out the contestant for giving the “stupidest bid ever,” while another said he just wanted attention.

Others said they felt bad for Drew as he didn’t know if Nicholas was being serious with his guess or not.

EXPLAINING HIMSELF

Later on The Price is Right, Nicholas revealed why he’d given such a surprising answer.

The explanation arrived after he was given another chance to move into the main pricing games by once again guessing against others, this time for the price of a collection of baseball gear.

This time around, he gave a more common response and ended up winning.

After coming up on stage and shaking Drew’s hand, the host joked that Nicholas was able to get a $1 million bid in and still eventually get on stage.

That’s when he explained that he had lost a bet and the consequence was him having to bid $1 million if chosen to play.

“Oh, no, no problem,” Drew told him. “[…]You gotta pay off your bets.”

PRICE is Right fans have slammed a contestant’s decision after he lost out on a car.

Host Drew Carey asked Craig if he was sure before he walked away.

Host Drew Carey asked if he was sure, and Craig said that he felt in his gut that he didn’t have the right lettersCredit: Instagram/therealpriceisright
Craig played Spelling Bee, where he had to pick a number from the bee hive and it would reveal a dollar amount.

On the back of the cards were letters.

If he picked the right ones and they spelled out “CAR,” he would win the car.

Craig picked, 11, 7, and then 30 and 1, after guessing the correct prices of two items.

His total was $4,000, after each of the numbers were valued at $1,000 each.

Drew, 65, offered Craig to keep the $4,000 instead of the car because if he didn’t have the right letters, he would walk away with nothing.

Craig consulted with his wife and then told The Price is Right host that he was going to “take the money and run?”

Drew asked him did he take the money because he didn’t get the fifth card.

Craig said that his gut told him that he didn’t have it.

Drew then walked over and turned the card around one by one.

The first card has a “C” on it, the second an “A”, and the third a “R.”

The crowd then went into an uproar and Craig put his hands on his head.

However, the model working the game told him that he shouldn’t be upset.

“Right. I have $4,000 more than I did when I came here,” Craig said.

‘SHOULD’VE GONE FOR IT!’

The clip was posted to the game show’s Instagram page and fans scolded Craig for his “dumb” move.

“Should’ve went for the car!” said one fan.

“That was crazy! sorry should’ve went for the car,” said another.

 

“The most depressing thing I’ve witnessed all week,” a third added.

“Crazy move,” said another.

“That was dumb. Always try for the car,” a social media user said.

EPIC FAIL

This isn’t the first time fans have mocked a PIR contestant.

Earlier this month, a contestant was asked to leave after five failed attempts.

Contestant Elvira spun the wheel very lightly and landed on the number 65 for her first spin.

Normally that would be a great first spin, but Drew told Elvira that it didn’t count.

“The wheel has to go around at least once,” the host said.

The contestant spun again, not even going past the 65, and landed on 45.

Drew offered to help Elvira out and she landed on 75 with his help.

He told her she had one more spin and she rejected his help when he offered one more time.

Her fourth spin landed in between numbers, so it didn’t count.

Elvira’s fifth and final spin landed on 40, which put her over 100, and eliminated her.

Drew thanked her for coming before escorting her off the stage.

One X, formerly Twitter, said that it was “painful” to watch while another said it was “embarrassing.”

The four competitors bid on a reclining chair.

Amylah bid $1200, and won the showcase because the chair was valued at $1,400.

When she got to the stage, Drew, 65, told Amylah that it was nice to see her.

“It’s nice to see you too, Uncle Drew,” she said back.

“Uncle Drew,” the host smiled. “It’s a long story. We don’t have time to get into it.”

After they laughed it off, Drew joked, “What do we got for my niece?”

“Cousin George wants you to have a brand new car!” the announcer said.

When the camera panned back to Amylah, she was on the floor, rolling around.

She then got up and buckled her knees as she said, “Ohh!” over and over.

After they described the car, Drew took Amylah over to the game where she had to guess the price of the car by stepping on the correct number.

Amylah wound up guessing the wrong number, but had a chance to go again by guessing prices of certain items.

She got one right, but guessed the wrong number again.

In the end, Amylah did not win the car because she didn’t guess the prices correctly.

The Price is Right contestant, however, did win the massage chair and got to spin the wheel.

CAR-NT TAKE IT

This isn’t the first time on the game show that somebody lost out on a car recently.

Contestant Craig played Spelling Bee, in which he had to pick a number from the hive that would reveal a dollar amount.

The cards had letters on the back and if the contestant picked the right ones and they spelled out “CAR,” Craig would win the car.

He picked, 11, 7, and then 30 and 1, after guessing the correct prices of two items.

Craig’s total was $4,000, with each letter valued at $1,000.

 

Drew offered the contestant to keep his $4,000 instead of taking the car because if he didn’t have the right letters, Craig would walk away with nothing.

The host asked Craig if he took the money because he didn’t get the fifth card.

Craig said that his gut told him that he didn’t have the correct letters.

Drew then walked over and turned the cards Craig picked one by one.

And as the host turned them over, they were revealed to be a “C,” “A,” and “R.”

Craig put his hands on his head and the crowd went crazy, after it was revealed that he would have won the coveted prize.

But, he took it in stride and said that he has $4,000 more than when he came.

SEEMS DICEY

In January, fans called out an error on the show after a contestant won a car.

The contestant, Isiah, was given the opportunity to roll two dice again after they appeared as $2,000.

Drew encouraged the family to support Isiah.

After rolling the car faces, the contestant jumped from his stand in excitement, and his family erupted into cheers.

Drew chanted for a car as Isiah rolled the dice again.

Isiah then posed next to the car and smiled when he won it.

The caption on the Instagram video said that he had a “perfect roll” to win the car.

However, some fan pointed out that he had to roll twice to win it, but he only rolled once.

[JUST IN] ‘The Price Is Right’ Fans Want Big Change After ‘Depressing’ DISASTER

‘The Price Is Right’ Fans Want Big Change to Game After Contestant’s ‘Depressing’ Disaster

CBS 

Each episode of The Price Is Right features an undisclosed assortment of games, and that variety is part of its mass appeal. However, fans think it’s due time to either retire or change one segment in particular: the Time is Money game, which just saw a contestant come up very short — and short on breath.

The Time is Money game is worth a maximum of $20,000 and is a staple of the game show despite being long branded as “impossible.” A player is shown five grocery items and then has just ten seconds to place each item on three shelves based on their prices. If they do so correctly, they win. If not (usually the case), there’s a redemption opportunity: they get 40 more seconds to rearrange the items correctly, with the prize pot decreasing every second. With each new guess, they must race over to a buzzer on side-stage to lock it in, the prize pot whittling away. If they can lock in the correct prices in 40 seconds, they get whatever’s left in the prize pot.

On Wednesday November 27’s episode, a truck driver named Stevan had a disastrous experience with the game. He was incorrect in round one, and unable to even place all of the items down in time. “Well, you didn’t get it because you have three in your hands still,” Drew Carey told him. Stevan entered the second chance portion, unsure if any of the ones he did place were correct.

The 40-second clock began on Stevan’s second chance, and sped around the set, rearranging the items and smashing the buzzer. But it was to no avail; after five incorrect rearrangements, the prize pot dropped down to $0.

“Oh man, sorry buddy you really tried,” Carey told an exhausted Stevan who was left huffing and puffing, hands clasping his knees. Correctly placing the items just for show, Carey, admitted, “I would have lost that one!”

After the morose misfire aired, a fan took to the TPIR Reddit forum dedicating a post to railing against the game’s difficulty level and asking producers to extend the time limit of the first round.

“God, I despise this game,” they began. “I imagine the producers and CBS love it, though; they’re almost guaranteed to save $20,000 of their budget when it’s played. Yes, I’m well aware that the full $20,000 has been won several times, but it’s still such a depressing game to watch when nine times out of 10, you know it’s gonna be lost.” They added, “What, if anything, do you reckon would be a good strategy to improve one’s odds of winning the game? Seeing as the second chance round is I believe 40 seconds, why can’t the first round be 20 seconds?”

“I love this game but people seldom play it wisely,” one fan replied. “The fellow playing it today did not think. He just threw things back-and-forth hoping to win by chance.”

“And he was looking at the audience! There’s no time for that,” wrote a third agreeing it was on the player.

However, the majority of commenters agreed that the game is too difficult as it stands and the timer for the first round should be extended to 15 or 20 seconds.

“I agree with the comments saying it should be 15 seconds,” a fourth fan wrote.

“For me, this game has many issues,” wrote a fifth. “First of all, it assumes agility. I don’t like seeing the contestant huffing and puffing at the end. What if 90 year old granny who’s been watching forever and finally gets on stage gets this game,” wrote a sixth. “Beyond that, the initial game could easily be expanded to 15 seconds.”

“To be fair, that guy had no clue how to price any of those items. But yeah, it’s a dumb game,” wrote an additional fan.

“I wouldn’t shed a tear if they retired this game. And take Three Strikes with it,” wrote a sixth.

“This game is trash. Everyone knows it. Get rid of it,” tore one more. “Not enjoyable at all to watch knowing the contestant has 0 chance. Not enough time to even gather the stuff and place it on the podium the first time. I legitimately can not believe that the producers and people who made this game actually think it’s enjoyable in anyway.”

What do you think of the Time is Money game? Would more time entail more money for the huffing and puffing players tasked with taking it on? Let us know in the comments!

The Price Is Right, Weekdays, 11am ET/10am PT, CBS

The Price Is Right – Fans $h0cked By Bold Move

Price Is Right Removed From Daytime, What Happened?

The Price Is Right has been a mainstay on daytime television for decades. The game show premiered in 1956 with host Bill Cullen and was rebooted in 1972 with legend Bob Barker.

Drew Carey has hosted the program since 2007. Normally, the show takes a break during the summer. However, fans were shocked when it was removed from the lineup without warning. Keep on reading to learn more.

Price Is Right – Fans Shocked By Bold Move

The Price Is Right fans are upset with CBS. The show was removed from daytime without notice. The mix up happened shortly after fans were upset over the lack of episodes. On Monday, July 8, viewers witnessed host Drew Carey in a wrestling costume and were confused.

CBS aired a rerun of the 2023 Halloween special. But most fans didn’t understand what was going on. Most of them took to X, formerly Twitter, to react to the rerun. “What is happening?” one fan asked.

The Price Is Right fans also reacted to Monday’s episode on Reddit. Most of them were confused over seeing Drew Carey in costume. But the game show typically airs reruns after the Fourth of July.

“Is the show done for a while? Did I miss somewhere in the last episode of an announcement about a break or an off-season until episodes start airing again?” one fan asked.

“Noticed some repeat episodes. Probably off for a summer break. They do it every year,” one user responded.

 

“The Price is Right always takes the summer off. Season 53 will begin late September or early October. The last episode of the season was July 4,” another user commented. 

Drew Carey – Makes Huge Mistake

Until Season 53 premieres in fall, Price Is Right fans will see reruns on weekdays. In a latest episode, Drew Carey made a huge mistake. A contestant named Barbara played a game called “Pockcet Change.” She had to guess the price of a Chevy to win it.

Barbara got the second number right. However, Drew forgot one of the rules. He didn’t tell her to grab a card from the wall to collect her winning change. When she walked up to the board, she rolled her eyes and looked at the audience.

“You weren’t going to let me have a card, were you?” she sarcastically asked.

“No, I was! You’re just doing so well I blanked,” he said.

Drew Carey was recently accused of picking favorites and allowing those contestants to win. What are your thoughts on the show being pulled from daytime?

Share your thoughts below in the comment section. The Price Is Right typically airs weekdays in the daytime. Nighttime specials air on Wednesdays.

Price is Right Drew Carey Reveals His Future On The Show and Retirement

Price is Right fans wonder about Drew Carey‘s future status with the game show. He’s now the current longest-serving host of a game show that’s in syndication. Pat Sajak previously held that title until he retired from Wheel of Fortune earlier this month. 

Fans are wondering about the future of The Price is Right. The game show has become a staple in daytime television. Drew carried on the role from the late Bob Barker. Red on to see what he had to say about his role.

Drew Carey – Celebrates Milestone

The comedian has been the host of The Price is Right for 17 years. Drew Carey sat down for an exclusive interview with TV Insider about this milestone. He took on the role after Bob Barker retired in 2007. Drew quickly fit into the role and fans fell in love with him.

It’s hard to see The Price is Right without Drew Carey at the helm. In the interview, he admitted that he had big shoes to fill. Drew wasn’t sure if he could take on the hosting gig. But it’s clear that he has a lot of fun with it.

The Price is Right fans shared their thoughts on the matter. Many of them proclaim that Drew fits the role perfectly. They think he brings a different attitude to the show. While Bob loved giving away prizes and hugging fans, Drew brought his humor and positive attitude.

He also carried on Bob’s legacy by reminding viewers to get their “pets spayed and neutered.” Drew would change his closing statement throughout the years. He also tells fans to take care of themselves and to look out for one another.

The Price Is Right Contract Details Revealed

Drew Carey spoke to TV Insider about his future on the show. He revealed his plans for retirement. It’s hard to believe, but the actor is 66 years old. Drew still feels young and has no intentions on retiring.

“I just show up and punch the clock and hope I have a job every day,” Drew said. “I do have a goal: I want to keep going until I die. This is my 18th season. I’ve got to get to 35 and 41, so I can catch Bob Parker and Pat Sajak.”

This is the longest that Drew Carey has been part of a television show. His previous series was The Drew Carey Show, which he was on for nine years.

Drew admits he “can’t imagine giving it up” since this gig is “just a great part of my day.” He revealed that his next contract negotiation isn’t for the next few years.

What are your thoughts on Drew Carey’s status with The Price is Right? Do you think he’ll remain the host of the game show? Sound off below in the comment section.

‘The Price Is Right’ Fans Accuse Drew Carey Of Rigging The Game

 

 

Fans of The Price Is Right are slamming the show’s host and production team for “rigging” the games. Following a perfect spin, many viewers are wondering if there’s someone in the famous wheel controlling everything or if there is some other way production is rigging the whole thing. Continue reading to see why people are accusing The Price Is Right team. 

The Price Is Right Contestant Wins Big On The Wheel

Normally, viewers are ecstatic when they see a contestant win. However, a recent player’s surprising win has fans asking questions about the show’s production.

In the game Showcase Showdown, contestants get to spin the big wheel. The objective is to get the highest cumulative amount closest to 100 on the wheel without going over. Each contestant gets two spins to achieve the goal of 100 (or less).

A recent contestant who appeared on The Price Is Right was able to do just that, but the perfect spin had some fans raising their eyebrows.

“Boom!” Drew Carey yelled after the contestant, Zamone, spun the wheel and got two 50s. She raked in $1,000 and Drew was astounded, but her good luck didn’t stop there.

Zamone then got to approach the wheel for her bonus spin. The Price Is Right host explained that if she landed on 5 or 15, she’d win another $10,000. If she spun the wheel and it landed on 100, she’d get an additional $25,000.

Her spin got heartbreakingly close to 100, but it wound up stopping on 15, which was still good news for Zamone. “$10,000! $10,000!” Drew screamed as he high-fived the contestant.

 

Fans Question If The Game Is Rigged After Zamone’s Win

Many viewers at home were thrilled to see someone win big on the wheel, but others weren’t so sure that it was luck that got her the win.

One fan commented on Instagram, writing, “Either this entire show is rigged or just the wheel is rigged. They pointed to the frequency of “1.00 spinners on the show” as their proof for making such a claim. Another person exclaimed, “She had the PERFECT spin.” Several other commenters suggested that the wheel is being “controlled” by someone in the background.

This isn’t the first time viewers have accused the game of being rigged either. In the past, people have pointed out inconsistencies in the outcomes.

Others were excited to see someone win. “That was truly something,” one person wrote. A few viewers thought that the spin was “So fun to watch.” The Price Is Right host shared those sentiments, visibly excited by Zamone’s big win.

“Everybody wants to see people win,” he has said in the past. “People eventually started cheering for each other. It’s not my money — it’s CBS’s money, and we’re all trying to take it together.”
