The Price Is Right is coming back with a fresh, new twist in the upcoming season, leaving plenty for longtime fans to be excited about. So, when does the popular game show return, and what exciting twist can longtime fans expect when things get rolling with Drew Carey in tow?
The Price Is Right Is An Iconic Game Show
Many game shows come and go, but only a select few of these game shows stand the test of time. The Price Is Right is one of those game shows with longevity stretching decades. With all the years that the late Bob Barker brought the show to life, he paved the way for Drew Carey to step in and make it his own.
While there is always a contentious period when iconic hosts must step down, The Price Is Right fans have embraced Drew Carey since he took over hosting duties, and he has had this gig for nearly 20 years. From the looks of it, and based on the latest updates making the rounds, this iconic game show isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
Big Changes Coming As Game Show Return Date Is Revealed
The one unfortunate thing for game show fans is, there comes a point every year where iconic game shows like The Price Is Right, Wheel Of Fortune, and Jeopardy! must all go on hiatus. This is a time for game show fans to watch reruns as production prepares for a new season.
The Price Is Right is gearing up for Season 54, as it is the longest consecutively running game show in television history. The new season of this beloved game show will officially premiere on Monday, September 22, on CBS, and it will air at 11 am EST.
According to the latest updates ahead of this new season premiere, there will also be some big changes in store as well. There will be a new pricing game added called “The Lions Share,” and this will be in partnership with BetMGM.
Based on a recent statement from CBS about the new season of The Price Is Right, it reads, “Host Drew Carey and announcer George Gray will once again invite contestants to ‘come on down!’ and compete for the chance to enter the Lion’s “wind chamber” and pull out prizes including spectacular trips, dream cars and a cash jackpot worth up to half a million dollars!”
Catch the Season 54 premiere of The Price Is Right on Monday, September 22, at 11 am EST, only on CBS.
