The Price Is Right Recapitulation for September 23rd, 2015 Season 44, Episode 3 (#7213K)
Season 44 of The Price Is Right kicks off with “Decades Week”; each of the first five shows this season pays tribute to one of the decades during which The Price Is Right aired. Today’s show pays tribute to the 1990s. The cast and contestants appear in costume, and tributes occur throughout the hour. I won’t spoil most of them, as half the fun of this week for us long-time fans will come from watching the show. Needless to say, the crew went all-out this week and paid attention to details in ways we thought impossible in this day and age.
