Come On Down!!!
I didn't watch a lot of The Price is Right when I was a kid, for some reason I didn't gravitate towards the show. I do remember watching episodes with Bob Barker on sick days, and during school vacations when I was in school in the late 80's and 90's.
I think what I remember most, more than Bob, or any of the games, were Barker's beauties. Holly, Diane and Janice were fixtures throughout the time I watched. You'd never get away with the name today, or some of the outfits they wore, but as an in the closet gay kid, I love watching the glamourous, long haired beauties, especially during the showcase showdowns.
I don't think I've ever seen more than a minute or two of the show since Drew Carey took over. It has nothing to do with Drew, more my level of interest in the show. I did however, catch the beginning the other day, just the first 10 minutes before I headed out for a meeting.
I was initially surprised to see actor James O'Halloran sitting shirtless on a jet ski. I'd forgotten, I'd featured both James, and fellow Drew Dude, Devin Goda, in posts previously on the site.. James was featured HERE:, and Devin HERE: Both have shown flashes of their butts, something we sadly won't see on a daytime talk show.
I'm not sure how I would have handled Barker's Boys if there were male models on the show when I used to watch. As much as I love seeing them now, at the point in time, I really enjoyed seeing three beautiful women on the show. That being said, if there were male models on the show then, I'm betting they would have worn a speedo now and then instead of the long board shorts they were today.

I watched sporadically growing up... These days, I watch during my lunch, and am always excited to see James and Devin. Dem boys are FAF!! Although, the show itself brings me joy. Everyone is rooting for everyone else, win or lose. I wish America was more like that dang show!
