( December 2010 ) The Price Is Right is a television game show franchise originally produced by Mark Goodson and Bill Todman, and created by Bob Stewart, and is currently produced and owned by FremantleMedia ( Endemol in Netherlands ). The franchise centers on television game shows, but also includes merchandise such as video games, printed media and board games. The franchise began in 1956 as a television game show hosted by Bill Cullen and was revamped in 1972. This version was originally hosted by Bob Barker. Since 2007, Drew Carey has hosted the program. In the show, contestants compete to win cash and prizes by guessing the pricing of merchandise. The program has been critically successful and remains a stalwart in the television ratings. It also managed to break away from the quiz show format that has been used in other game shows. Since the current version premiered, it has also been adapted in several international formats around the world, most notably in the United Kingdom, Australia and Mexico. In 2013, TV Guide ranked it No. 5 in its list of the 60 greatest game shows ever.

Hosted by Bill Cullen, it involved four contestants bidding on a wide array of merchandise prizes, whose values ranged anywhere from a few dollars, ( in many cases, `` bonus '' prizes were attached after the fact, to the winner ) to thousands, doing so in the manner of auctions except that Cullen did not act out the role of auctioneer. Instead, contestants tried to bid closest to the product 's actual retail price without going over that price. Depending on the prize, contestants were allowed, in proper turn, to make multiple bids ; or only allowed one bid. In the case of the former, each contestant in - turn bid on the displayed item until a buzzer sounded. They could make a final bid, or `` freeze. '' The contestant whose bid was closest to the correct value of the prize -- and had not gone over that value -- won it. There was also a special game set aside for the home viewer, which offered several prizes in a package, which usually included a luxury vacation trip, and / or a new car as part of the package. Viewers submitted their bids via post cards ; the winner was announced on the air. At the end of each episode, the contestant who had won the most ( by dollar value ) was declared the winner and became the returning champion, entitled to play again in the next episode. This version began as part of NBC 's daytime schedule. An alleged series of technical problems made the pilot episode look bad enough for NBC to decline buying the show, but after an appeal from the producers, citing the fact that at that time all TV shows were given up to an initial 13 weeks to succeed or fail, it aired anyway. It became successful enough to warrant a second version of the series, beginning on prime time in the fall of 1957. Shown weekly, that version had the distinction of being the first TV game show to be broadcast in color. After being a Top - 10 prime time show for some time its ratings gradually but noticeably declined, and by 1963 NBC canceled it, only to be picked up by ABC. ABC 's primetime version ran for one full season ( 1963 -- 64 ), and the daytime version ended in 1965. 1972 -- present Main article : The Price Is Right ( U.S. game show ) Format Since 1972, the current version of The Price Is Right uses the same structure : One Bid, where four players attempt to bid on an initial prize, being as close as possible without going over ; the player closest to the price gets the opportunity to play a pricing game. The first four players are called from the studio audience at the start of the show in Contestant 's Row to play One Bid, and after each pricing game, a new player is called to fill the slot. Pricing games, where the contestant plays for a range of prizes, frequently money or automobiles, with most games based on the player 's knowledge of the retail price of these items. The Showcase, where the two top players of the day are shown two showcases, collections of several prizes. The player with the highest winnings to that point gets the option of either bidding on the first showcase show, or otherwise passing that to the other player who must bid on it ; the second showcase is then bid on by the remaining player. The player who is closest to the retail price of the showcase without going over wins the showcase ; it is possible to win both showcases by being very close to the actual price, while if both players overbid, neither showcase is won. When the new format debuted as The New Price Is Right, shows were thirty minutes in length : three pricing games were played and the two contestants with the highest winnings entered the Showcase. By June 1973, the show was renamed back to The Price is Right. The show was expanded into a hour - long format on November 3, 1975. This allowed for six pricing games to be played. A new feature, the Showcase Showdown, was added to select which players would play in the Showcase. It is used after the first three players completed their pricing games to select one player from this set, and after the next three. In the Showdown, each player is given two chance to spin a wheel which has a monetary amounts from 5 cents to 1 dollar by 5 cent increments. The goal was to be the closest to one dollar from both spins without going over ; a player can opt to not spin a second time. Additional prize money can be won if the player make a total of one dollar exactly with either one or both spins, and even a larger amount if they could can a bonus spin on marked spaces on the wheel. History The series debuted September 4, 1972, in two forms : a daily version on CBS with Bob Barker as host, and a weekly version, eventually dubbed `` the nighttime Price Is Right, '' hosted by Dennis James and airing in first - run syndication. Barker took over the nighttime version in 1977 ( which remained a half - hour in length throughout its existence ) and hosted both until the nighttime version was discontinued in 1980. The syndicated nighttime version returned five years later, with Tom Kennedy as host and running five days a week. This version ran for one season. Barker hosted the program from its debut until June 15, 2007. During his 35 years as host, Barker won numerous awards and honors including Daytime Emmys and a Lifetime Achievement Award. Directors of the show included Marc Breslow, Paul Alter, and Bart Eskander, with Eskander receiving a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Direction of a Game Show. Producer Roger Dobkowitz won a Daytime Emmy for his work on the show, which included the development of many of the show 's games that are still being played today. After a season - long search for a successor, Drew Carey took the helm of the show, with production resuming in August 2007, and his first episode airing on October 15. It is believed to be the longest - running game show on television ( the Spanish - language variety show Sábado Gigante ended on September 19, 2015 ). It is also the longest running game show airing episodes five days - per - week in the world. The Price Is Right is one of two game show franchises ( along with To Tell the Truth ) to be seen nationally in either first - run network or syndication airings in the U.S. in every decade from the 1950s onward. CBS has occasionally aired extra episodes of the show for short periods between the cancellation of one daytime program and the premiere of its successor. On occasion since 1986, special episodes have aired during prime time hours, most notably to fill in gaps between the Survivor series, and during the 2007 -- 08 Writers Guild of America strike. On September 22, 2008, Terry Kneiss made game show history by bidding the exact amount of his $23,743 showcase. Taping of the show immediately stopped, with Carey and show staffers concerned that cheating was taking place. It was later learned that -- by constantly watching the show, noticing the frequency of certain products showing up on the show, and using statistical analysis -- Kneiss and his wife Linda, who was in the studio audience, had legitimately determined the exact prices of the items in the showcase. Kneiss was awarded the prizes, and the show subsequently discontinued featuring certain products. On April Fools ' Day in 2014, Craig Ferguson and Carey switched hosting duties, with Carey hosting The Late Late Show and Ferguson taking over the hosting duties on The Price Is Right. The episode also featured Shadoe Stevens as announcer. Barker appeared on the April Fools ' Day episode in 2015, hosting the first item up for bids and the first pricing game, with Carey hosting the remainder of the episode.
