Yes! And to think you have to add in all those stupid commercials, plus any commentaries from various individuals, etc. So, not much will be shown I guess. Just the same ol' footage I have seen on prior specials or game show moments.

So sad. I can make a prediction right now of what will be shown. I expect them to show that heavyset black woman who was so happy to win that she went chasing Bob all over the stage. I also predict the black woman whose tube top came down and she exposed her boobs.

My main problem with the old clipd of TPIR is they never included the YEAR with the Clip they were showing. Like that Big Black woman who was chasing bob barker, since no year was posted I can only assume it was in the 70's-lol

Sorry, can't help you out there. You'd probably have to do some research on that.

I watched Entertainment Tonight when they went through these classic TPIR clips. The clip you're talking about actually took place in 1981. As for tonight's special, I, too, would've expected more out of this. Bob Barker deserves a proper send-off, but he didn't quite get the send-off we we're expecting. When they showed that Happy Gilmore clip, I expected to hear the edited for TV clip, not the actual feature film clip. I was expecting to hear Gilmore say "The price is wrong, Bob!" Instead, they showed the other with the dreaded B word that rhymes with witch. I was disappointed, because that was supposed to be a clip on a G-rated show.
