The Price Is Right Reveals New Format for First Time in 54-Year History | E! News
After 54 years on the air, ‘The Price Is Right’ is testing out a new format, airing in a live special this holiday season hosted by Drew Carey. The one-hour special marks the first time the series will be going live in over five decades. Drew Carey will continue his hosting duties for the live special, with CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach saying at CBS’ recent fall schedule announcement, per Variety, they “would never not do it without him.” As for what’s in store for the live special? “They’ve got some really fun ideas that they’re going to implement to bring the audience into that live experience,” she continued. “I think the prizes are what brings people in, the joy of seeing people win. And at the holiday season, I can’t imagine anything more fun for everyone to witness people winning prizes live.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1431198/the-price-is-right-first-live-show-in-54-year-history

I can't wait to watch this❤
The title got me scared they were going to totally switch up the regular daytime show. Whew!
We will see.
They should do it every day time show as well!
They’ve changed up so much of the show that I haven’t seen it a whole lot lately, in years.
cool
Very nice.
The only thing that changed in the format of CBS version's of TPIR was the show's length. In 1972, the show was 30 minutes with commercials vs. the more familiar 60 minutes with commercials.
It's a disservice to the show's overall history, though, to ignore the original show that ran from 1956-65 – first on NBC (through 1963) and then on ABC. Bill Cullen was the host for all of the original seasons. At least the Canadian TPIR – hosted by Howie Mandell – pays proper tribute to it.
But when is this special?
At my fun job at 18Universal(formerly Disney18)they did live episodes of price is right & Joker's Wild & more.
Whew! Don't scare me E! News like that! Thrilled for the live special, but nearly had a heart attack
My CBS station cannot wait right before or after my birthday ktvt is waiting for 31 years as CBS station.
Many mistakes
1. Fire Drew Carey!
2. Being back the old pricing games
3. Remove the male models
4. Add the old music
Zzzzzzz
If they really want to change the format then show how many people actually take home the stuff. For example most car winners can't pay the taxes
I like the new Howie Mandel version better! I hate Drew Carey!
We gotta wait until Christmas? 😭
interesting; now I wonder if Sony Pictures Television would do the same with Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy; especially with the latest renewed ABC deal that additionally revives Sports Jeopardy as ESPN Jeopardy (latter exclusive on Disney+)…
Soooooo….it’s gonna be live now? That’s it? That’s the only change?
…Well, OK. As long as I can still record it on my DVR and watch it as I work out.
For the record, the show debuted 70 years ago, and Bill Cullen hosted it live. This is only The New Price is Right, the full name of this reboot.
Can’t wait to see it LIVE!
We Will all see
