Bob Barker Has Passed Away

[Snowysmom]

We watched the Price is Right all the time. RIP.

Such a cool human, may he RIP.

Never watched Price is Right, did watch Truth or Consequences when he was the host. 99, he had a good long life.

Summer break and sick days weren’t complete without TPIR. I couldnt watch after he retired. I don’t dislike Drew Carey, but he just wasn’t Bob.

RIP, and because of you we are still helping control the pet population by having our pets spade and neutered. Goodbye, Mr. Barker.

RIP Bob. He had a long run.

RIP Mr Barker, you provided a lot of entertainment for me, for a lot of years.

 

[Meriweather]

RIP Bob.....such a part of my childhood.
Used to watch Truth or Consequences with my grandmother and then Price is Right later with my own family.

RIP.

Pluto TV has a Game Show Channel, and it had a Price is Right: The Barker Era sub-channel that runs 1980s The Price is Right episodes 24/7. So you can relive those 1980s Price is Right moments any time, all day long!

Watching it you can really see what a pro Barker was. He was charming and knew how to keep things moving and engage with the contestants.

Growing up my great-grandmother and grandfather would watch The Price Is Right and I liked to watch with them as a kid and my great-grandmother would only watch it because it came on before The Young And The Restless and my great-grandmother was a pro at The Price Is Right and I knew some of the prices well too even before she did. But I do play The Price Is Right video games on my Nintendo DS and I can win some games easily. But two pricing games I dislike that I can never win are Safe Cracker and Bonkers. But I do love Punch-A-Bunch and the car game where you win a car and you count the horn honks and if the numbers are correct you win the car

For me, Alex Trebek IS Jeopardy, and Bob Barker IS The Price Is Right. Both shows with different hosts just seems wrong to me. I hope they're partying together in heaven.

Kay Michigan, I hope your area does get Pluto! We don't yet anyway out here in LA. I sure wish we did! I would love to watch TPIR with Bob on the TV not via computer streaming.

I always watched Price with my grandma if I was home from school. She was so good at it, but I couldn't ever talk her into going on the show. I haven't watched since Bob retired. Drew Carey is fine, but to me he's just wrong in that job.

RIP to one of the greats. Thank you and godspeed good sir.

So sad, he will be missed!

We do! I watch it on the Pluto TV app on my TV.

I'm so glad Kay! I wish we got it here. Enjoy for me

You will never get it as a cable/antenna station if that is what you mean. It is a streaming app. If you have a TV that allows you to stream apps you do have Pluto TV.

Thanks, Jormom! I will have to look into that. We do have a Smart TV. It's not Bluetooth enabled if that makes a difference, I don't know.

Much respect to Bob for his endless campaigning for animals. May he RIP.

Wow …I didn’t think he was still with us. Had quite a career!

My internet was down all weekend. I just got back online this afternoon and saw the news.

Plinko was always my favorite game on TPIR.
