Information about The Price Is Right
The Price Is Right is a television game show format currently owned by the FremantleMedia wing of the RTL Group, originally created by Bob Stewart, former employee of Goodson-Todman Productions in the United States.
The most popular version is currently airing in the United States. From 1972 to 2007, the show was hosted by Bob Barker. On October 15, 2007 Drew Carey debuted as the new host. The U.S. version, now in its 36th season, is both a spin-off of a previously successful version and the seed for many international versions of the show.
The 1972 American version was hosted by Bob Barker from September 1972 to June 2007; his last new episode aired on June 15, 2007. After a season-long search for a new host, Drew Carey took over the helm of the show, with production resuming in August 2007, with Carey's first episode airing on October 15. It is believed to be the second longest-running game show on television, trailing only the Spanish-language variety show Sábado Gigante [2]; it is also the longest running five-days-a-week game show in the world. (Wheel of Fortune began its syndicated run in 1983[3], and Jeopardy! followed in 1984.[4]) The Price Is Right is one of only two game show franchises to be seen nationally in either first-run network or syndication airings in the US in every decade from the 1950s onward; the other is To Tell the Truth, another show created by Bob Stewart for Goodson-Todman.
According to one website, a man named Claude Mercier hosted a locally aired version of this show (it's presumed Fabien Major was also announcing this version). The running dates are unknown.
Prime's episodes were recordings of the East Coast CBS feed with the closed captioning plugs that precede the Showcase Showdowns removed. Episodes pre-empted on this feed were either not shown or substituted with tapes sent from the production company. In some cases the tapes they received were actually rough versions of the episodes that had not yet been edited into the final product. For instance, one episode seen on Prime had Bob Barker say to a contestant, "This is your Showcase!" followed by a brief pause, a fade to black, and then Bob counting down and giving last minute instructions to the contestant before the Showcase proceeded. Also, Christmas week episodes were never aired on Prime due to the delayed rotation. Some episodes that were briefly interrupted with a CBS News Special Report had that interruption kept in in Prime's rebroadcasts.
CH also airs the series at the same time as CBS without any tape delays, often directly off CBS's network feeds. If an episode was interrupted with a Special Report from CBS, CH would often carry it. If an episode was pre-empted by CBS, CH would show alternate programming instead.
Canadian cable TV includes many American channels, including CBS, so the majority of Canadians have access to the American broadcasts of The Price Is Right. However, in many areas (especially on systems with a CH channel in the line-up), the CH broadcast is generally "simsubbed" over the CBS signal.
Local carriage of the Million Dollar Spectaculars may vary by area, as these specials were not seen locally on most CH stations. In the Toronto area, the specials were televised in the past by CFMT-TV and, most recently, CKXT-TV. These specials, seen simultaneously with the CBS broadcasts, were often broadcasted from tapes or a prior satellite feed from the producers, instead of directly off the CBS feed.
With the rebranding of CH to E! in fall 2007, involving the entire schedule except for primetime and local news and focusing on entertainment and celebrity programs, The Price Is Right will move in the Toronto area from CHCH-TV to CKXT and in the Vancouver area from CHEK-TV to CHNM-TV.
As in the US version, Contestants' Row was composed of people selected from the audience by an invisible announcer, and the contestants were selected from the Contestants' Row through a bidding game. After the two first games, Contestants' Row was fully renewed for the two last games of the show.
All games were inspired by the US version. The first and the third ones used to change from one week to another but the second and the fourth ones were always the same.
The second game, Grand Game, was called El Mercadito (The Little Supermarket). In it, the contestant had to choose from among six articles the four which were above or below a given price. The constestant started the game with 10 pesos and would multiply them by 10 for each rigfht article that he would choose, up to a highest earning of 100,000 pesos ($50 US). If he failed before attaining this highest price, he would be proposed a triqui-traque (treat): either he kept his winnings, or he could switch it for a surprise prize hidden behind a curtain. This surprise price could be much better (i.e. a VCR or an oriental rug) or much worse (i.e. a broom or a glass of orange juice) than the cash.
The fourth game was a Colombian rendition of Race Game. The contestant had 60 seconds to run across the stage to put the right price to five different articles, and when a price was indeed right, a light went on. Instead of running to and from the prizes, the contestant had to dance across the stage. He was allowed to choose the background music; possible choices included Cumbia, Merengue, Paso Doble, and Joropo.
1983-1988 Hosted by Mikko Yoderson, most likely on MTV3.
An earlier version, Prijs je Rijk, was aired in 1987. It was hosted by Fred Oster and announced by Pierre van Ostade.
The show ran on ABC 5 as part of the network's response to the popularity of Who Wants to be a Millionaire? on IBC 13.
In Autumn 2006 the show relaunched once again and took its inspiration from the new UK version by using a similar set and music. The show also removed "em Euros" from the name making its new title O Preço Certo since the Euro has been in use for seven years. Sound effects from Joe's show don't appear to have been used much (the generic bell was borrowed from Cash en Carlo, for example). All versions have aired on RTP1.
While the Lozano/Romero era used the same props and music as the UK's Bruce's Price Is Right, the current version with Juan does appear to use a similar set to the current UK show with Joe Pasquale, but does not use the same theme as Joe's show while Portugal's version does use both. Likewise, while the Bob Warman-era UK TPiR and Carlos Cruz-era Portuguese TPiR used the American version's music, the Joaquin Prat-era Spanish TPiR used a completely different theme song.

This series aired twice a week, unlike the 2 other versions airing at the time. It aired on TQS, and was produced by the Coscient Group (which also handled the French-Canadian version of Family Feud).According to one website, a man named Claude Mercier hosted a locally aired version of this show (it's presumed Fabien Major was also announcing this version). The running dates are unknown.

The United States episodes were rebroadcast on a delay of approximately one month on Prime in Canada from August 12, 2002 to May 31, 2006. The rebroadcasts ended when Prime was rebranded as TVtropolis, with a new schedule featuring mainly off-network repeats of sitcom and dramas, plus some new original and imported programming.Prime's episodes were recordings of the East Coast CBS feed with the closed captioning plugs that precede the Showcase Showdowns removed. Episodes pre-empted on this feed were either not shown or substituted with tapes sent from the production company. In some cases the tapes they received were actually rough versions of the episodes that had not yet been edited into the final product.

China
Gòu Wù Jiē Dào - little is known of this show other than that its name translates to "Shopping Street" and that it is airing on CCTV-2. It is not known if the format was actually licenced from FremantleMedia. The host is Zhen Cheng. This show borrows many elements from the US version. In addition, a version in Taiwan (airing on China Television) has similar elements to the Italian show, such as song-and-dance routines.Colombia
El Precio es Correcto (The Price is Right), hosted by Gloria Valencia de Castaño and announced by El Capi in the late '80s, aired on Cadena Uno every Tuesday from 1 to 1.30 pm, after midday newscast Noticiero Nacional.

This version uses Bruce's Price Is Right props and music (but used a synthesized version of the US TPIR theme for its closing music). Interestingly, when the show still used the escudo, it used a set similar to the US show (and the German show) and the same theme tune as the US.In Autumn 2006 the show relaunched once again and took its inspiration from the new UK version by using a similar set and music. The show also removed "em Euros" from the name making its new title O Preço Certo since the Euro has been in use for seven years.

Before the Portuguese version came along, Spain used Bruce's Price Is Right's props and music.While the Lozano/Romero era used the same props and music as the UK's Bruce's Price Is Right, the current version with Juan does appear to use a similar set to the current UK show with Joe Pasquale, but does not use the same theme as Joe's show while Portugal's version does use both. Likewise, while the Bob Warman-era UK TPiR and Carlos Cruz-era Portuguese TPiR used the American version's music, the Joaquin Prat-era Spanish TPiR used a completely different theme song.
