The Price is Right Season 2017 Episode 122 Mon, Sep 18, 2017 - Drew Carey 10 Year Anniversary Day 1

The Price is Right is a game show featuring contestants competing to win various prizes by correctly guessing their prices. The show premiered in 1956 and has since become a television classic with its iconic catchphrases and colorful set design. In 2007, comedian Drew Carey took over as host from longtime host Bob Barker, and in 2017, the show celebrated Carey's 10 year anniversary as host with a week-long celebration.

In season 2017 episode 122, which aired on September 18, 2017, viewers were treated to the first day of the Drew Carey 10 Year Anniversary celebration. To kick off the festivities, Carey welcomed the studio audience and viewers at home with a special opening monologue, reflecting on the past decade of hosting the show and thanking the audience for their support.

The first game of the day was classic Price is Right game, "Cliff Hangers". In this game, a contestant is shown a prize and must guess its price within a certain range to win. However, the game is made more difficult by the presence of a mountain climber character, who will "fall off" the mountain if the contestant's guess is too high and climb higher if the guess is too low. The contestant must correctly guess the price before the mountain climber reaches the top of the mountain.

Next up was "Bargain Game", where contestants are shown four prizes and must guess which two are priced below their actual retail value to win them all. This game requires both strategic thinking and knowledge of the prices of the items involved.

One of the highlights of the episode was a special showcase featuring a trip to Las Vegas, complete with a private plane ride and stay at a luxurious hotel. The contestant who won the trip was visibly emotional and overjoyed at the prospect of taking the vacation.

Other games played on this episode included "Hole in One (or Two)", where contestants must putt a golf ball into a hole to win a prize, and "One Away", where contestants must correctly guess the prices of five different items to win a car.

Throughout the episode, Carey's affable and jovial personality shone, as he bantered with contestants, joked with the audience, and kept the energy high. His signature wit and humor was on full display, and it was clear that he was genuinely enjoying himself as he celebrated his decade-long tenure as host.

Overall, this episode was a fun and exciting celebration of The Price is Right's beloved host, Drew Carey. With classic games, special prizes, and Carey's infectious energy, it was a fitting start to a weeklong anniversary celebration that fans of the show undoubtedly enjoyed.
