TVC 623.2: Game show historian Steve Beverly talks to Ed about how it took a few shows for the Bob Barker Price is Right to find its footing; why it was a risky move for CBS to expand The Price is Right to an hour from its original thirty-minute length; and why Drew Carey was “a compromise choice” to replace Barker as host of Price in 2007. Bob Barker passed away on Saturday, Aug. 26 at age ninety-nine.
