Maths teacher Ted Slauson became adept at recording and memorizing prices of products featured on the iconic game show The Price is Right, an obsession dating back to the show's inception in 1972. This passion and dedication for the show culminated in him helping a contestant place a perfect bid during a 2008 showcase, an innocent act that would create one of the biggest controversies in television industry history.

What a fun story, told with some interesting behind the scenes bits. Some reviews say they loved it but give it a bad rating because Drew Carey swears in a previously recorded interview they show excerpts from. Who cares?! They are words. Your children will be just fine, the sky is not falling, everything will be okay. Just absolutely ridiculous and silly for an adult to be so distressed by words.

I really enjoyed this movie. I figured out why: it is not only the story of this one man and his relationship to TPIR, but it is a history lesson about the show itself. It even covers the changeover from Bob Barker to Drew Carey. Best of all, the story doesn't feel stretched or dragged out...this was the perfect length for the tale to tell. Great job and unexpected! If found this one free on YouTube right now, by the way, which didn't hurt!

This is a fun little documentary around a pretty niche subject. This almost plays out as a The Price is Right documentary, but using a really interested fan to tell the story. Would recommend if you're looking for a light hearted, obscure, documentary.

While this movie isn't quite as interesting as the Press Your Luck documentary I still thought that it was mildly amusing and interesting. I think the best part of the documentary was seeing current-day Bob Barker sounding just as I remembered him (he was part of the soundtrack of my youth). follow me at https://IHATEBadMovies.com or facebook IHATEBadMovies

This film was a surprise plus in my book. When I first sat down to watch it I was expecting a conspiracy theory laden snooze fest. It was anything but that.
Throughout the film you get to learn about the history of The Price is Right. You even get to hear it from the producers themselves an More

"The curious case of Theodore Slauson and the role he played in one of the most remarkable moments of television history is examined with an acutely insightful eye and jaunty rhythm in director C.J. Wallis’ hugely enjoyable doc..."
