That's enough contestants for heaven this week, universe. Agreed. Having said that, the runs for Funk and Barker, you raise a glass to and celebrate lives full and lived well. Bray at 36 on the other hand… As for me, glass up, pets spayed and neutered and hope to see you all at the end of the program in the Showcase Showdown. Fixed.

I think he had bar none the best cameo on Bold and the Beautiful, but I wasn't a fan of Wyatt so seeing him get his ass kicked by 90 year old Bob Barker made my day lol

As a kid of the 80's and 90's, a day home from school sick always meant an episode of The Price is Right with Bob Barker. RIP to the man.

99 is a helluva run, but this still sucks. Watched tonnes of TPIR over the years, my mother still religiously watches it, and always loved Bob. And of course, his interactions with Adam Sandler are legendary. He was a true pop culture icon, and it’s pretty damn hard to reach his legendary status these days. RIP Bob, sorry I didn’t neuter my one dog but he hasn’t knocked any bitches up so I think we can call it good.

If you could bottle and sell the feeling of getting to stay home from school and watch the Price Is Right, you’d be a billionaire. RIP to a legend.

RIP. Damn, him and Springer gone in the same year.
Staying home sick from school probably doesn’t hit the same.

Damn, thought for sure he would have made it to 100. RIP.
Also, I picture this playing for him upon going to the afterlife.

Rip Bob... as others said ... Bob Barker on price is right is the soundtrack from a day off from school...

Weekday mornings when I’m home from school sick in the 90s won’t be the same anymore

Sorry to lose you Bob. Your message on the pet population was missed by so many, every shelter is overrun.

Man...I was really hoping he was going to get to 100.
He seemed like the most likely person to do it, especially since he was tied to the Big Wheel for so many years, so it just seemed like destiny.

Sad to hear this. Watched The Price Is Right all the time when I was a kid and teenager. What’s with life not letting people get to a 100 recently? First Betty White and now Bob Barker.

The Guest Host era of RAW was worth it just for Bob Barker's episode

A lot of the game show hosts from my childhood are now either dead (Barker, Trebek, Dawson, Combs, Clark) or retired (Sajak, Woolery). Is Marc Summers still active?

Is Marc Summers still active? from what I remember he started producing for a while (A lot of stuff on the Food Network he was responsible for)... and then retired... then decided he didn't like not doing anything and started doing like Double Dare Live shows... but I haven't heard anything since like 2019.
