On the 3 pm episode of Buzzr's TPIR, airing on 6/14, they played the retired Phone Home Game and Poker Game. Last week I saw an episode featuring Pick a Pair with the Ferris Wheel set. They also showed female contestants reaching into Barker's pocket for their $100 bonus on these shows.
...................................so?

And on the 7pm episode of Password Plus, somebody guessed the password.

What a coincidence!  On the episode of Supermarket Sweep airing right now, team two used a shopping cart, while team three grabbed turkeys.

Out of curiosity, why would he?

"And the number one way to piss off Bob Barker... Ask him 'Hey, how's Dian?'"

Nope. Per Eubanks at the expo, hiding Barks wgmc sign under the couch was it. Bark would not start tape til they found out who did it. They call Eubanks on his ranch and finally gives up the, hidden, location

I imagine they never spoke again

Looks like GSN's added a several episodes of Blank Slate and Master Minds to its Youtube channels. Dunno if it means much of anything, but it caught my eye a moment ago.

Forgive me if this has been discussed already. I noticed that if I watch the Barker channel on the Pluto app, and watch it on The Roku Channel app, I get different broadcasts. Does anyone know what the disparity is between the two?

As I type this, Roku's stream is showing E5845, whereas Pluto's stream is showing a TNPiR72 episode.

It's always been that way. The feed Roku uses (and is also on Amazon Freevee, Plex and maybe others) has fewer commercial breaks and isn't beholden to start shows on the top or bottom of the hour. The Pluto feed has more commercial breaks and tends to stick to a more strict schedule, though it can get a little off at times.

Freevee seems like they have far less commercial breaks than the others. I can usually watch 3 or 4 segments in a row before there is another commercial break.

Ok, so as the days and weeks go by, the streams get farther and farther apart. It's not like one is six hours ahead of the other.

The Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! Channels have been removed from the PlutoTV Lineup.
It was a 2 Year Contract beginning 8/1/22 and was not renewed.

Looks like the on demand episodes are still there
Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

Jeopardy!'s on demand offerings have been removed, however as of this writing Wheel's are still up. Whether that's an oversight (probable) or a separate arrangement, not sure.

I just checked Pluto and Wheel's on-demand episodes have since been removed as well.

Pluto has a channel in their Kids section called "No Parents Allowed," and giving it a quick scroll through the next 12 hours, I see episodes of Legends of the Hidden Temple, Figure It Out, GUTS, and a newer Nickelodeon competition series called Paradise Run. We could have a new Nick GAS in the making here.

That would be very acceptable indeed.
