In 1972, I was 14, sent for tickets, and attended the show during Season 1. I've attended numerous times over the years at Television City. In the late 1990s, I co-hosted a weekly radio show on KRLA in Los Angeles and Bob was nice enough to spend an hour with us as our special guest. Fast forward to 2023, the first day of taping in the show's new home at Haven Studios, I got picked and ended up winning the Showcase. It only took 51 years! The cars and other prizes are nicer now, but back in the day, Chevy Novas, AMC Gremlins and Ford Fiestas were regularly on the prize roster. And you gotta love Bob's era-appropriate eath tone attire.
These early episodes are such a hoot: All the brown and yellow colors, Bob with so much upbeat enthusiasm and dark hair, almost 90% of the contestants women, contestants all dressed nice and in shape, subdued audience, junk cars for prizes... love it.
My first car was a 1970 Gremlin. It was “loaded” with the bigger engine, 14 inch wheels, bucket seats, carpeting, 3 on the floor, roof rack, avocado green with a big white stripe and factory air conditioning. I loved that car!
It was rare for a car to have air conditioning then. Even in households it wasn't very common, perhaps 25%. Now it's so common, that when they list features of cars on the Price Is Right, they don't mention it, if my memory is correct.
I haven't seen a blueish purple car since the Gremlin. Our economy wasn't wracked with mega-inflation back then. The loaded 1980 Firebird in my Avatar was just over $10,000 brand new. Can't we just throw away our smartphones and our internet and go back to this simpler time??? I'm driving ... GET IN
Bob suit and dress suit actually matches the colors of the turntable and big doors set as well as the giant TPIR tag and the Money Game board circa 1973.
I have to say the Gremlin was a much better looking car than the than the ugly Pontiac 1000s the show tried to dump on unsuspecting contestants in the 80s. (I’d also rather have an AMC vehicle from the seventies than anything from GM.)
I'm sure that car no longer exists and was scrapped and the metal recycled long ago. Just think, that toaster you have at home could have some of the steel from this very car inside it.
Unless I'm mistaken, the girl in green, called down as "Judith Blume" bears a striking resemblance to the renowned author, Judy Blume. Is this a pre-fame appearance?
Robert , proving he is not so smart ! 😑. She obviously didn't win at this time & didn't win a Gremlin the point 🙄 of the op. Nice that she won later but she got no Gremlin .. Be silent 🤫 Robert.

I was 5 years old in 1973. It is fun watching these old episodes!

This is was the year I was born. So 51 years ago. So awesome.
Later, Janette wound up winning the Volkswagen Thing (looks like a convertible type Jeep) and won $7,152 in prizes.

I was thinking that. And she's about 80.

I was trying to work out what was 'different' about the audience - then I realised there are almost no overweight people...
That door closed so fast behind Bob I was afraid he would get caught in it! :)
From the opening and the first pricing game of the 11/16/73 episode of The Price is Right. Featuring Money Game today.
I have to say the Gremlin was a much better looking car than the than the ugly Pontiac 1000s the show tried to dump on unsuspecting contestants in the 80s. (I’d also rather have an AMC vehicle from the seventies than anything from GM.)
I agree and they had bigger engines while still being lightweight!
I'm sure that car no longer exists and was scrapped and the metal recycled long ago.

Inflation is a MF.
The days when a car cost under $3,000.
$2985 in 1973 is around $21,200 in 2024 dollars.
The equivalents now on the modern-day show are the Mirages, Kias and Nissans.
I was 15 years old!
Gremlin x are cool
And to think that some people on here would still take a Pontiac Aztek or a Nissan Cube over a Gremlin 😅
I bought new Gremlin in 1974.
Judy Blume author?
With inflation, a small car like that would be 20000 dollars in today's money, at least, if not more. It is insane.
No Gremlin, please. They were too risky.
The good news is that you won a gremlin...the bad news is that you won a gremlin....😂
Whomever uploads these videos should start with the pilot episode and work their way to Bob's last episode.
We've been trying to contact you about your fire protection plan
