Did Barker ever mention/plug/comment on-air about the James, Kennedy, or Davidson's versions?

According to this thread, a Clock Game contestant only watched the Dennis James version of TPiR, so Bob said "A ha! So Dennis has taught you the Clock Game!".

 I know he made a couple of references to Davidson's version in late 1994 and early 1995. One time, someone was thinking upon seeing the Davidson version that the CBS run had ended, or changed hosts, or something to that effect.

I have a vague memory of one contestant mentioning Tom Kennedy's run in 1986 on the CBS TPIR.

HSquares2003:
And I think Davidson's version quite frankly p***ed Barker off because people thought HIS show was going off when it was just Doug's doing so.

I think so too, I remember seeing people from the audience ask and Barker had to again say that his show was still on the air, he DID not look happy.

However, I backstage at CBS when Barker arrived one day and walking down the hall with him Doug popped out from Y&R and Barker was very nice to him...but that could be show business! :)
