THE PRICE IS RIGHT MILLION DOLLAR SPECTACULAR, hosted by Emmy Award winner Bob Barker, returns to prime time with three new episodes celebrating the game show's 33 year history on CBS, the first two to be broadcast Saturday, April 9 (8:00�9:00 PM, ET/PT) and Saturday, April 16 (8:00�9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Other prizes include sports and luxury cars, exotic vacations and the chance to spin the wheel for $1 million. In addition, the specials will feature six Barker's Beauties, as well as the show's announcer, Rich Fields.

"We're unique in the game show world in that no one else has lasted as long as we have," says Barker. "We thought audiences would enjoy reliving those moments that have contributed to our success."

THE PRICE IS RIGHT is now in its 33rd year and is television�s longest-running game show. During its run, 1.3 million people have sat in the studio audience for tapings and more than 50,000 have made it up to Contestants Row to share in more than $260 million worth of prizes.
