Quirky doc !I can see this being watchable for many people from many backgrounds.

He literally changed the way the show is made. And was never recognized for it.

Charming. Also: Bob Barker comes off as a gentleman & Drew Carey comes off as an ass.

I must say , it ran a BIT longer than it should have none the less, an interesting story. The Price is Right has certainly a cult following.

An interesting story from an interesting character. A great watch for any price is right fan.

It’s an extremely interesting topic that only faults from poor story structure, dreadful audio editing and a lack of score to cover it up.

Interesting to hear from his perspective. Nothing amazing, but intriguing nonetheless.

Interesting but the editing was awful and distracting at times. Could've shaved at least 20 minutes off.

Pretty interesting to see someone that’s obsessed with a show like that. Always been a fan of the Price is Right but was never that good

Interesting to see how a super fan cracked the code of the pricing system of a famous game show
