Everybody borrowed from everybody. Art Linketter once said many of the games on Let's Make a Deal and Price Is Right were used on People Are Funny on radio in the 1940s
I'm sure it wasn't intentional and there are only so many games you can do with prices of items, but the game It's in the Bag is LMAD's "Match the Prices" with a different coat of paint and a sixth item that doesn't have an accompanying bag.
Exactly....just like there's only a few ways you can put a celebrity panel behind a desk and ask them to guess something.

But I'm not sure that we've fully established with who came up with the three big differentiators of The New Price is Right: the Pricing Games, the two-player Showcase, and the selection of contestants out of the studio audience.

This may be sacrilegious, but I think the influence for those elements came from Let's Make A Deal.  Did Monty Hall ever make a compliant about how similar The New Price Is Right was to his show?

Double Talk and Go, the logos would flash on the screen and then fly into the real ones on the set.

Forget if I read it here or elsewhere, but I recall that he showed up at the G-T offices absolutely livid. Monty, Mark and Bill obviously worked something out.

It always fascinated me that in the pitch film for the new version, they use a clip from Let's Make A Deal to show how things are going to work.  Pretty brazen.

I could be completely making this up, but weren't the contestants taken from the audience on the Cullen version too? Just done before the show rather than on camera?

I believe in Quizmaster it says that people were interviewed in line and quizzed on prices of small prizes for the chance to be used on a future program.

I was going to mention that in my original post. It wouldn't surprise me if Goodson said "Let's make The New Price is Right just like Let's Make a Deal, but with items up for bids!" Hell, there's even three doors!
