- May 10, 2016
The Price is Right season 2016 episode 88, airing on Tuesday, May 10th, 2016, is a special mash-up episode with another popular game show, Let's Make a Deal. This is the second of two Let's Make a Deal mash-up episodes for The Price is Right this season.
The episode begins with the usual introduction and welcome from host Drew Carey, who gives the audience some background on the collaboration between the two shows. The set design for the episode is a combination of elements from both shows, with elements from The Price is Right such as the rotating prize wheel and various game props integrated with the zaniness and colorful costumes associated with Let's Make a Deal.
The first game of the episode is Let's Make a Deal's classic "Big Deal" game, where a contestant is offered three doors to choose from, each concealing a prize of varying value. In this version, the prize behind each door is revealed to be a cash amount that could potentially be used in the subsequent games of The Price is Right. The contestant is then given the option to keep the cash or risk it for a chance at winning a grand prize. The grand prize is then revealed to be a luxurious vacation package.
The next game is the Price is Right's "Plinko" game, in which contestants drop a token down a pegboard and try to win cash prizes depending on where the token lands. For this mash-up episode, the game has been given a Let's Make a Deal twist. The contestant is first asked to choose one of three oversized playing cards, each with a cash value. The cash is then placed at the top of the Plinko board and the contestant gets to drop their colorful token down the board. Depending on where it lands, the contestant can win the cash amount on the card they chose or one of two additional cash prizes. The game adds an extra layer of excitement to the traditional Plinko game, as the contestants have a chance at winning even more money.
The third game is another classic from Let's Make a Deal, where contestants are offered a choice between a mystery prize or a cash amount which could be used to buy a prize later in the show. Drew Carey himself dresses up in a zany costume for this game, in keeping with Let's Make a Deal's tradition of flamboyant outfits and visual spectacle. The contestants are presented with a choice between a giant, wrapped box or a cash amount. The box could contain anything from a new car to a bundle of toilet paper, depending on their luck. This game exemplifies the unpredictability and fun that Let's Make a Deal is known for.
The fourth game is a new twist on one of The Price is Right's most popular games, "Hole in One". In this version, the contestant is presented with two doors. Behind one door is a miniature golf course, and behind the other, a cash amount. If they choose the cash, they can use the money to buy a prize and still have a chance to win big at the end of the show. If they choose the golf course, they must putt the ball into the hole in one shot to win a luxurious prize package. The game adds an extra element of excitement to the classic game, as the contestant must decide whether to take the cash or risk it all to try and win big.
The final game is another new mash-up game, combining elements of both Let's Make a Deal and The Price is Right. The contestant is presented with three doors, each concealing a cash amount. They are then given the option to trade their chosen door for a chance at a big mystery prize. However, the mystery prize is revealed to be a game board consisting of 20 squares, each concealing a different prize. The contestant must then flip over tiles and try to match three of the same prize to win big. This game combines the best elements of both shows, with the risk/reward aspect of Let's Make a Deal combined with the skill-based gameplay of The Price is Right.
Overall, this episode of The Price is Right offers a fun and exciting mash-up with Let's Make a Deal, with new twists on classic games and exciting new mash-up games. The set design and costumes add an extra layer of visual spectacle to the usual Price is Right experience. This episode is a must-watch for fans of game shows and anyone looking for a fun and exciting viewing experience.
