The Price Is Right (1972)/The Best of The Price Is Right

From The TV IV
Jump to: navigation, search

The Best Of The Price Is Right is a four-disc DVD set encompassing selected episodes of The Price Is Right, TV's longest running game show. Four episodes showcase the original version with Bill Cullen. The other 22 episodes feature the CBS edition with Bob Barker. Episodes span the earliest years, from 1972 to 1976 with the earliest aired episode from September 6, 1972. It includes a show from the week of hour-long test shows from September 8, 1975, and the first permanent hour-long show, from November 3, 1975. Disc 4 encompasses Barker's final week as the host.

The debut show, from September 4, 1972, exists but is not on the DVD as the first prize was a fur, and the exclusion of the episode is in deference to Barker's policy against using furs on the show.
