The Big Board / Who created The New Price is Right in 1972?
« Last post by Casey Buck on April 17, 2024, 06:23:53 PM »
This may sound like a silly question.  Bob Stewart, of course, created the original 50s/60s Bill Cullen version of The Price is Right.

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.

I imagine the correct answer would certainly be Frank Wayne. But would it also be Jay Wolpert, someone else on the Goodson staff, or even Goodson himself (he certainly claimed to be the creator!)?

Who would you have in a hypothetical "Developed by" credit alongside Bob Stewart's "Created by" credit?

The Big Board / Re: #SurveyAlsoSaid: All Family Feud 100 Responses on Twitter

Could somebody please bookmark that tweet for the next time we have the conversation about how not every answer with at least two respondents is required to be displayed on the board?

A mildly interesting disclaimer in each of these tweets:

Quote
Note: #FamilyFeud surveys are conducted anonymously via phone throughout the 🇺🇸 by people who are not #SteveHarvey.

Are there viewers who think that Steve Harvey is the one going out and soliciting these responses? Anyway, I found it informative to learn that the surveys are conducted by phone now (I believe they were done by mail in the Dawson/Combs days). That would help eliminate any spelling bias in the "Give me a word that rhymes with ______" questions.

I assume that the people being contacted by phone know that they are specifically answering Family Feud questions (as opposed to the producers creating a pretense of conducting a general national survey), given the number of questions that are about Steve Harvey.

While I think "cue stick" is a magnificent answer, I could not see this survey being played if it or similar answers had qualified to be on the board.

Today's survey showed how neatly the top 8 maximum fits some questions, and how the way some survey respondents miss the point never see the light of day.

We asked 100 people. Name something a male stripper called “The Pool Boy” might be holding.

Top 8 answers on the board
#1 Net / Skimmer (39)
#2 Hose (11)
#3 Pool Noodle (11)
#4 Life Preserver (7)
#5 Beach Ball (4)
#6 Speedo / Trunks (4)
#7 Himself / Butt / Trouser Snake (4)
#8 Float / Raft (3)
···
#SurveyAlsoSaid (not seen on TV)
* Jock Strap (2)
* Bucket of Water (2)
* Pool Brush (2)
* Towel (2)
* Cue Stick (2)
* Pool Vacuum (2)
* Floatie / Water Wings (1)
* Goggles (1)
* Squeegee (1)
* Rubber Duck (1)
* The 8 Ball (1)

Dunno how much this counts, but the first couple weeks of Bergeron’s Hollywood Squares had the title screen “shrink” to fit the screenshot on the big screen on set.

I was wondering, have the producers of Family Feud ever just made up the responses to a survey, or are they above such chicanery?
I don’t know, why don’t you tell us?

/wow

Wouldn't that be an S&P issue, given that Steve always said that they surveyed 100 people?

/then again, they never said which 100

The closest I've found so far to meeting the original description would be Narz Concentration.
