Trivia:
The original models, formally named "Barker's Beauties" were Janice Pennington and Anitra Ford. At the start of the fourth season, when the show went into a one-hour format, Dian Parkinson became the third newest "beauty". Then in early 1977, Anitra Ford was replaced by 24 year-old Holly Halstrom. Janice, Dian, and Holly would show their true beauty success when modeling for new cars, exotic vacation, and nifty prizes. Then, a milestone occurred: On Christmas Eve (December 24,)1990, Kathleen Bradley not only became the fourth new "Barker Beauty", but also the first Black American beauty in both CBS Daytime and "Price Is Right" history. more
Quotes:
[Various openings from the fourth season with the shining, twinkling white lights border and the flashing credits, varying from "One Hour" and "Hour Power"; theme music play and audience cheers and applauds]
Johnny Olson: And here it is! The first ever hour-long game show in television! The fabulous new 60-minute "Price Is Right"!

The best game show ever made., 26 August 2000
Author: lartronic from Akron, Ohio

Still better than "Who wants to be a Millionaire". Unlike "Millionaire", this show gives the contestants a chance to win more than just money. They can win lots of money AND prizes. This is still the greatest game show ever made, and always will be, anytime, anywhere.
