Well, here we are again. I've been looking over the poll, and it's an overwhelming vote for the one-player Showcase. So, that's what we'll do.
So, we need six people. Who wants to come on down?

And that makes six, provided my elementary school math hasn't failed me.
Edit: Since I didn't quite clarify, yes, I am in.

(The intro this season looks very similar to the intro of the network version) (fade in, cheers and applause as we get a wide shot of the crowd) [OPENING "COME ON DOWN!" CUE](as the contestants' names are called, they jump up excitedly and rush down to Contestants' Row) George Gray: (VO) Here it comes! From the Bob Barker Studio at CBS in Hollywood, it's The Price is Right!
Steve Solack, COME ON DOWN!!! Frank Driscoll, COME ON DOWN!!! Steven Anderson, COME ON DOWN!!! And Josh Allington, COME ON DOWN!!!
You are the first four contestants on The Price is Right![MAIN THEME]And now, here's your host....... GREG PALMER!
(I walk out from Door #2 to cheers and applause, I approach Contestants' Row, and Rachel hands me my mic; I then bow to the audience, who gives me the customary standing ovation) Greg: Welcome to The Price is Right! (the audience cheers) Thank you, thank you very much. Boy, how do you like that? A standing ovation, and I just walked out those doors. I didn't even do anything! Now, let's welcome some of the other people who are here. First, Rachel gave me the mic. Rachel Reynolds! (audience cheers as Rachel waves) And over here, in his usual spot, is not Burton Richardson. He's with me all the time on another show which may or may not be on this station. But sitting over there is a guy you see every day, George Gray! (cheers and applause) George: Hey, Greg! Hey, everybody, welcome to the show! Hi, Mama Mai!Greg: Who is this Mama Mai you keep referring to? George: It's my mom. It's like, uh.... Allen Ludden saying "Hi, doll" before every episode of Password.Greg: Oh, that's right. Roger must've told you about that one. And Roger Dobkowitz is sitting over at the desk! (camera gets a shot of Roger, cheers and applause, Roger waves) And for those of you asking, "Who is Roger Dobkowitz?" you ought to be ashamed of yourselves! Look him up. Now, we've got an audience full of people just dying to take us for everything we've got. Am I right? (audience cheers) Great audience. And now, let's say hi to the four people down here. Hiya, four people down there. How are you doing today? Are you ready to go?

It also comes with built-in Bluetooth for hands free calling and streaming audio.Greg: And that navigation system will go to the one of you four who bids closest to the actual retail price without going over. Steve to the far left, we start with you. (audience shouts suggestions)

Well Greg, I'm currently a sophomore at San Francisco State University (Go Gators!) and I'm currently studying under a program called BECA which is short for Broadcast & Electronic Communication Arts.

Well, that's fantastic. Frank, behind these doors, we have some prizes that are going to blow your mind. Just look at what you could win! (the doors open up to find Manuela and Gwendolyn with....) George: TWO NEW CARS!(wild cheers and applause, shot of Frank) George: First, it's the 2018 Ford Fusion S! Any way you look at it, Fusion stands out. It comes with all the standard features including a 2.5-liter Duratec® I-4 engine, six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. Plus, it comes with the 101A and S Appearance packages, plus inflatable rear safety belts. The Ford Fusion S!
Next, it's the 2018 Chevy Malibu, the car that doesn’t compromise. It unites a passion for driving with exceptional efficiency. It comes with all the standard features including a 1.5L turbocharger DOHC 4-cylinder DI engine, 6-speed automatic transmission and front wheel drive, plus these options: Convenience Package 2, Universal Tablet Holder, engine block heater, Dark Chrome horizontal leading edge grille, front and rear splash guards, and sport pedal kit. The 2018 Chevy Malibu!
Back to you, Frank and Greg!
(cheers and applause) Greg: Frank, the game you're going to be playing is called Do the Math, and it's quite simple. All we want you to do is complete a math problem. Now, the price difference between the two cars is $1,530. What I want you to tell me is whether we should add $1,530 to the price of the Ford to equal the price of the Chevy.... [2018 FUSION][+ $1,530 = ][2018 MALIBU]
Or whether we should subtract $1,530 from the price of the Ford to equal the price of the Chevy. [2018 FUSION][- $1,530 = ][2018 MALIBU]
Now, if the math equation is correct, then you win both cars and $1,530 in gas money. [2018 FUSION][+ OR - $1,530 = ][2018 MALIBU]
The game boils down to whether or not you think the first prize is more or less expensive than the second. If you think it's more expensive, choose "minus"; if it's less expensive, choose "plus." What will it be? (audience shouts suggestions)

I say +1530 to the Fusion.

I can't tell if that's an audience suggestion, but I'll say -$1,530.

Post by palmer7 on Oct 3, 2017 16:05:11 GMT -5
Alright, he's going for minus. [2018 FUSION][- $1,530 = ][2018 MALIBU]
Let's take a look at the price of the Fusion.... [$24,115][- $1,530 = ][2018 MALIBU] (ding)(audience reacts) OK, so far so good. If that Malibu is over $22,000, you're a winner. Show us! [$24,115][- $1,530 = ][$25,645] (mrrrrp)(losing horns)(audience groans) [$24,115][- $1,530 ≠ ][$25,645]
Awww, you should've gone with plus. Too bad, Frank, but you do have a chance to spin the Big Wheel later on. Thanks for playing. (cheers and applause as Frank exits) George, we have a vacancy in Contestants' Row. Who have you got? (wide shot of the audience) George: (VO) Well, Greg, I've got Matt Ringgenberg! COME ON DOWN! You're the next contestant on The Price is Right! (Matt gets up and runs down to Contestants' Row to an uproar of cheering) Greg: And here comes Matt, all the way down from the nosebleed section to join us down here. Hiya, Matt. Are you ready to go?

And so is everyone else here.... except for that guy in the center sleeping! (audience laughs, the asleep man wakes up) Trying to take a nap, eh? Oh ho, just wait until the break. Well, here's the next item up for bids on the train! (Manuela rides the Price is Right train to bring in this next package) [TENNIS CUE]George: (VO) It's a tennis package!(shot of all four players) This pair of Prince Red LS 105 Tennis Rackets ensures extra manoeuvrability thanks to the head light balance. It features an open string pattern for more spin and an amazing feel and guarantees more power due to the large sweet spot. It's the racket of choice of Jelena Jankovic and each comes with a full protective cover, from Prince.
And we're also including a case of 72 tennis balls, from Viking! (the train takes off again)Greg: To clarify, you are bidding on both the case of tennis balls and the two tennis rackets. And this time, we start the bidding with Matt. (audience shouts suggestions) Steve: Matt: Steven: Josh:
