This is the best blog I’ve come across in a really long time. I just spent the last hour or so perusing your archives and I found some really great stuff. Thanks!

Bret, you’re approaching “Hero” status with all this continued excellence.

Not even exaggerating.

Anyone who frequents this place knows what I mean.

It was only until recently (now that Drew Carey is hosting TPiR) that the theme song was rerecorded IN STEREO.

Great stuff! “Splendido!” has lyrics:

Ohhh yeah…It’s nothing but furniture:
Sectional Living Room,
StainMaster carpet too.

Too bad….nothing but furniture:
Elegant Dining Room,
Michael C. Fina and you.

Aaaaand althoughhh,
the bed is soft and dee-eep,
You’ll get a good night’s slee-eep,
You will still have nothing there to drive…

no car…no truck…no vannnn…

…You’re stuck with furniture:
tan Broyhill furniture.
Maybe some of it reclines.

You can’t believe *this* is it.

Oh man, it’s nothing but furniture.
Rod Roddy’s spiel is done.
Should have kept Showcase One.

How will you get this home?

Thank you so much for this! I’ve been looking for this for years, wasn’t sure if it actually existed. I was just hoping that one day I would come across all that great TPiR music I loved as a kid. I think it may have been the start of my lifelong 70’s obsession!

Excellent compilation! The modern cues used on TPIR can’t hold a candle to these gems. Great job!

Awesome collection… remember many of these from back in the day when I was a kid watching the show on sick days or summer. One thing missing, which I realize is game music not specifically a cue, is the yodeling song from the mountain climber game. THAT should have been on this if for no other reason than it’s the most memorable song on the show. Otherwise awesome!

Between the switch to HD, the current director’s different style, and Drew just being Drew, you often CAN see what’s written on the cards these days. And I haven’t seen Drew “misread” one yet.

Even as a kid, it drove me nuts that Bob made sure you never, EVER saw what was on the cards, even after he announced it. I never thought it was rigged though; I just wanted to see whether they were typed or handwritten. Why, I have no idea.
