Price Is Right Removed From Daytime, What Happened?

The Price Is Right has been a mainstay on daytime television for decades. The game show premiered in 1956 with host Bill Cullen and was rebooted in 1972 with legend Bob Barker.

Drew Carey has hosted the program since 2007. Normally, the show takes a break during the summer. However, fans were shocked when it was removed from the lineup without warning. Keep on reading to learn more.

Price Is Right – Fans Shocked By Bold Move

The Price Is Right fans are upset with CBS. The show was removed from daytime without notice. The mix up happened shortly after fans were upset over the lack of episodes. On Monday, July 8, viewers witnessed host Drew Carey in a wrestling costume and were confused.

CBS aired a rerun of the 2023 Halloween special. But most fans didn’t understand what was going on. Most of them took to X, formerly Twitter, to react to the rerun. “What is happening?” one fan asked.

The Price Is Right fans also reacted to Monday’s episode on Reddit. Most of them were confused over seeing Drew Carey in costume. But the game show typically airs reruns after the Fourth of July.

“Is the show done for a while? Did I miss somewhere in the last episode of an announcement about a break or an off-season until episodes start airing again?” one fan asked.

“Noticed some repeat episodes. Probably off for a summer break. They do it every year,” one user responded.

“The Price is Right always takes the summer off. Season 53 will begin late September or early October. The last episode of the season was July 4,” another user commented.

Drew Carey – Makes Huge Mistake

Until Season 53 premieres in fall, Price Is Right fans will see reruns on weekdays. In a latest episode, Drew Carey made a huge mistake. A contestant named Barbara played a game called “Pockcet Change.” She had to guess the price of a Chevy to win it.

Barbara got the second number right. However, Drew forgot one of the rules. He didn’t tell her to grab a card from the wall to collect her winning change. When she walked up to the board, she rolled her eyes and looked at the audience.

“You weren’t going to let me have a card, were you?” she sarcastically asked.

“No, I was! You’re just doing so well I blanked,” he said.

Drew Carey was recently accused of picking favorites and allowing those contestants to win. What are your thoughts on the show being pulled from daytime?
