And for the newest feature...
ESPN has plays of the week? Well, it's time for me to have something even better...
The Barkerisms of the Week!
That's right! Every week where CBS airs new episodes of The Price Is Right, I will list all the great lines from everyone's favorite Happy Gilmore beater, Bob Barker, as well as pick a favorite.
Also, for any weeks where they air reruns that I didn't catch, I'll also list his Barkerisms from those shows.
I came up with the idea on Thursday, so I only listed lines from the Thursday and Friday episodes. Bob didn't disappoint, by giving us three great lines in those shows - two of them before the first two pricing games on Friday's show! But, as a special added bonus this week, I'm including a couple of great lines from an interview he did with St. Petersburg Times near his 80th birthday.
"I told (CBS) I didn't know there would be so much attention paid to my 80th birthday, or I would have celebrated it a long time ago!" - Bob, when asked how it felt to have two shows celebrating his 80th birthday
"Mostly, they want to know why I haven't done more pictures. I tell them the reason is because I refuse to do nude scenes. I don't want to be just another beautiful body." - Bob, talking about Happy Gilmore and the fact he's asked about it at nearly every taping
From this week's shows:
Thursday: "That's not going to get all the way around! Booooo! Booooo! C'mon audience, boo her! You know, I've been doing this for 34 years, and I've never booed a contestant before. But I'm going to start now. Booooo! I just hate that! Jennifer, give it a good spin this time!" - Bob, after a young woman named Jennifer gave the wheel a wimpy first spin
Friday: "Manohack, you've wanted to meet me for a long time? I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not me. I'm just a cheap imitation!" - Bob, just before Manohack played It's In The Bag (where, sadly, she quit with $4,000, and would've won all $16,000 had she kept going!)
Amusing as always. But the Barkerism Of The Week?
Friday: "While Rich was describing the car, Clara turned to me and said 'Bob, I turned 60 today'. Don't tell me about your problems!" - Bob, just before the first pricing game, deciding to get some laughs over the fact that his 60th birthday was 22 years ago
