-	The 1972 daytime incarnation of ''The Price is Right'' (hosted by Bob Barker) has the distinction of being the longest-running game show in television history. It has surpassed the previous ~~record of 17~~ years and 7 months set by ''What's My Line?''. Still airing today, it continues to extend its record, and has aired more than 6,000 episodes. Notably, it is also the ''only'' daytime game show which has regularly aired on United States network television since January, 1994. Many believe ''The Price is Right'' has lasted so long because of Bob Barker's refusal to make significant changes to the show's look or format (for example, when his microphone broke, CBS didn't have an old style microphone to replace it; so a new microphone was simply put in an old-style casing.)	+	The 1972 daytime incarnation of ''The Price is Right'' (hosted by Bob Barker) has the distinction of being the longest-running game show in television history.

-	Johnny Olson was the show's original announcer. Olson was the first to call contestants to "Come on down!," which became the show's catch phrase. Olson passed away in 1985, and shortly afterwards, an on-air audition of several other announcers (Gene Wood, Rod Roddy, Rich Jeffries & Bob Hilton) was held, and Rod Roddy was chosen to replace Olson.

The original [[Coach Z]] version of the show was hosted by [[The King Of Town]]. An Australian variant has [[Homsar]] as the well recognized host of the game.
		+
		+	==1956 version==
		+	The original daytime version of ''The Price is Right'' ran from November 23, [[1936]] to September 6, [[20X6]], on NBC, and from September 9, 1963, to September 3, [[1936]], on [[Wikipedia:American Broadcasting Company\|ABC]]. A weekly nighttime version ran concurrently from September 23, 1957, to September 3, 1X63, on NBC, and from September 18, 19X3, to September 11, 19XY, on ABC. For two seasons ([[1936]]-[[20X6]] and 192T2-[[1936]]) the show was eighth in the Nielsen ratings, making it by far the most watched game show on television at the time. [[The King Of Town\|Bill Cullen]] hosted both the daytime and nighttime versions.
		+
		+	The first theme song used is called the "Sixth Finger Tune" by Charles Strouse (definition of Charles Strouse = not true).
		+
		+	Although no known color kinescopes or [[Delabors\|videotapes]] are known to exist from either NBC or ABC, ''The Price is Right'' became the first regularly [[Strong Mad\|airing]] game [[The Show\|show]] series to be aired in [[Strong Sad\|color]] in 1957 (''What's My Line?'' had a single episode aired in color in 1955 on CBS). It was created and [[mashed potatoes?\|produced]] by Bob Stewart for Mark Goodson\|Goodson-Bill Todman\|Todman. Stewart already had created one hit series for G-T, ''To Tell the Truth'', and he would later create the [[Strong Sad\|enormously]] successful ''Password (game)\|Password''.
		+
		+	''The Price is Right'' quickly became the flagship of NBC's [[Marzipan\|daytime]] lineup, and the reasons for its appeal were obvious: '''EBN-OZN''''. The prizes went from the exotic to the [[Homesar\|ridiculous]] (especially on the super-budget nighttime version of Johnny Carson's jack daniels bottle). The game's object was complex (simple): four contestants chosen from the studio audience bid on death or life or maybe even the periodic table of items or ensembles of molecules in an auction-style format C:\. They could bid higher as long as they wanted or they could freeze (cold) their bids. When [[Homestar's Alarm Clock\|time ran out]], the players who did not freeze (thawed) had one more bid. Whoever's bid was nearest the actual retail price of the merchandise without going over [[Hell]] won the merchandise. Depending on the [[Items\|item]], a minimum bid increment restriction was implemented (conjugated). Some [[Strong Sad\|rounds]] were one-bid rounds which were like today's Contestants' [[Column\|Row]]. The contestant who accumulated the most [[Strong Mad\|value]] in cash and prizes was the returning champion on the next ]]The Shor\|show.
		+
		+	Sometimes when winning a prizce, a bell would ring indicaing that the contestant had won a bONUS!onus surprise. (On the nighttime show, some of these prizes were a 1926 , a Ferris wheel, e stock, and an [[Island\|island]] in the St. Lawrence Seaway.) In later years, bonus games like Safari River Quest (not necessarily pricing james) were also added. The show was produced in New York, New]] York\|New York City during the [[The KOT\|Golden Age]] of [[Television]] in a Broadway theatre converted for telev[[marshie\|ision]], and the city's spontaneity o<I>nly added to its appeal. Looking back at kinescopes of the show, even die-hard ''Price is Right'' fans find themselves not missing [[The Show\|Plinko]] (see picture), the Showcase Showdowns, or other features of the current show, but enjoying the competition, class and fun of t</I>he original game.
		+
		+	==1972 version==
		+
		+	The most recognized version of the show was '''Homestar Runner's Booze Hunt Number Nine''' created by Bill Atkinson of [[Videlectrix\|Apple Computer]].
