The Price is Rightis one of thelongest-running TV game shows.
Sinceits premiere in 1972, the show has used the same structure.

In situations like these, even hostsas seasoned as Bob BarkerandDrew Careycant help but play along.
Despite all his jokes,Barker was pretty thoroughwhen it came to his hosting responsibilities.
But even the best of us slip up now and then and thats exactly what happened to him.
The blunder happened during the Pick-A-Pair game when a contestant namedAlberthad to choose two items that cost the same.
After the realization hit, the audience had already started laughing at Barker.
He flailed around a bit andtried to get the situation under control.
The Spinning Wheel brings intheelement of tension and suspensethat game shows thrive on.
So, its only natural for the contestants to be excited as they take their turn spinning the wheel.
But she was a real sport andgot right back to the gameafter that epic fall.

However, a contestant namedHenryon the 2023 episode of the show took things to a whole new level.
So, when Carey told him that he had won the round.
Henry went into a frenzy and started jumping and punching the air to celebrate.

It all started when a contestant namedAndreahad to guess the price of a brand-new Hyundai Sonata.
After Andrea made her first guess,Arbelaez accidentally revealed the card with the actual pricetag written on it.
The model was instantly embarrassed and tried to cover up her mistake literally.

6The Price Is Wrong!
TakeJosefor instance, who appeared on the show during Season 35.
Jose was competing against a woman named Gay.

For some reason,he ended up bidding $250,000, and his bid took Barker by surprise.
But the man was insistent and believed in his estimate.
Barker revealedthe actual price to be $20,685,which was a far cry from what Jose had predicted.

Its baffling to me how she would even make that mistake.
The contestant cant control her laughter as she sees Reynolds crashing what is supposed to beher brand-new car.
Reynolds is then seen looking into the camera, like a deer caught in the headlights.

This is just the way Rachel drives on the freeway too, joked the host.
The contestants are shown a four-digit price for a prize.
But the catch is that its completely wrong.
But I have a feelingBarker didnt really enjoy doing that.
The format of the game required the contestants to figure out the prices of three prizes.
However, they only had ten chances to do it.
As usual, Barker took a minute to explain the instructions to her.
But as the game goes on, she keeps messing up, as thoughshe doesnt really understand the game.
And I cant blame Barker for needing a moment to sit down after what had transpired.
Two others kick off the locks for smaller rewards and the final one unlocks nothing.
Now,watching someone pick up a key only to find that its a dudisnt all that fun.
But I love the Master Key game for all the tension it brings to the show.
The prizes in front of him include a new car, a kitchen work center, and a dishwasher.
After Barker explains the rules to him, Joseph starts making his choices.
When he picks up his key and walks over to the locks,Barker tries to help him out.
But in doing so, the host firstgets the key stuck in one of the locks.
Not only that, but the other key Joseph picks unlocks the car.
So for him, Barkers kick definitely paid off!
So, you cant blame the producers or Carey for this one.
