TPiR Million Dollar episodes - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

On January 4-6, The Price Is Right will be taping its million-dollar episodes. Since the episodes are being taped in early January, episodes will probably air early in 2003, probably during February sweeps.

Awesome! Thanks for the info.

How exactly will the million dollar episodes work? Or is this just symbolic of the show giving away a million dollars over the past 30 years?

So is this still happening, or is it still out of consideration? The last I heard, it wasn't happening afterall.

CBS has been airing promotional spots with Bob plugging the January 4-6 tapedates, so I'm sure they're still on.

And the million dollars will be given out on bonus spins from the wheel from what I've heard.

Yep, these will be CBS primetime hour-long specials.

I saw the first one last night, very cool set, an update of the daytime set! Here's the increases in the money games: in Punch-a-Bunch, the top prize is $25,000 instead of $10,000; in Grand Game, the top prize is $20,000 instead of $10,000; in Clock Game, the top prize is $5,000 instead of $1,000; in Plinko, the top prize is $100,000 instead of $50,000; and the $1.00 spot on the bonus spin is $1,000,000 instead of $10,000. The items up for bids range from $1,500 to $3,000. The showcases range from $65,000 to $80,000. My grandparents watch TPIR everday and I watch it everyday that I'm off!
