Price Is
Right Description:
The Price Is Right may have started on NBC way back in 1956, but it has been the mainstay of CBS' daytime lineup since 1972. The longest-running game show in history is still going strong. No brainiacs need apply; contestants just need to know the prices of everyday items. Contestants are chosen from the studio audience, presumably for their level of enthusiasm. Ever-changing mini games and beautiful models add to the show's lasting appeal. Price
Is Right Catch phrase: "Come
on down! You're the next contestant
on The Price Is Right."

Was on a Game Show Too? (7/3/01)
A few of the celebrities you know
from other walks of life were on
game shows too, once upon a time.
"[I am looking for] any information you may have on a particular Price Is Right show in 1962 where a 1962 Century Coronado 21' boat was given away to a Scott Larchee, Copoka, New York.This particular information was on a piece of paper describing the boat. The paper was not official, it was typed up with basic information. My husband purchased this particular Century Coronado and was told it was won on the Price Is Right. My husband is now restoring the boat and would like to find out if it was actually won on the game show. I have tried the Price Is Right web site but cannot find anything that might help me in my research there. Any information or reference you could provide would be most helpful." -- cjinotti Were you or someone you know a contestant on a classic game show?
