The price is no longer right

RIP

Bob Barker, longtime ‘The Price Is Right’ host, dies at 99

When producers hired Barker to host “The Price Is Right” in 1972, they hit the jackpot. The game show had faded significantly from its glory days in the late ‘50s and had been punted by two networks before it landed at CBS.

He was one of the GOATs in the game show biz. 99 is a great run for a white male of his era. Only about half a percent of white males live to that age. Well done.

Wow, I thought he died years ago.

Good run. And word was he was nailing the Barker’s Beauties on the regular. RIP.

I’m pretty sure he went over 100. He was the kind of guy who had to beat women off with a stick.

I am slow today… I read that and was like “Well, yeah…” for a moment before I got the joke

For me, if I were home sick from school, it was a given I’d be watching Bob on The Price Is Right.

Dian Parkinson - the one on the left -
Barker sabotaged her career and the only way for her to stay on the show to was sleep/F***K with him for years, before and especially after his wife died.
