Browsing throught the "Price is Right Q&A", I came across this question answered by a Price Producer:


Question: I enjoy The Price is Right everyday. I really look forward to seeing Rod Roddy when he announces someone to come on down. I like to see what color coat he is wearing. My question is, why do you not show Rod Roddy on camera any more? I miss him. Please e-mail me back and let me know why. Thanks a lot.
Your fan for life, Daniel Wilson
Answer: FremantleMedia produces around one hundred game shows throughout the world. The company’s objective is to keep show formats standard in all territories of the world. Therefore, all announcers’ on camera exposure has been eliminated.

That's pathetic. :mad:

Thats bullcrap!

I missed Rod Roddy on camera.:( No question about it. I used to love that show with Rod Roddy on camera.
