This obscure cultural reference brought to you by The Price Is Right

Go to cbs.com, watch the TPIR Million Dollar Spectacular for May 21 (specifically, the first pricing game), and ask yourself: "Does this girl know who Gracie Allen is?"

At least on the night time specials they still read mostly-real prize cues, although that does make the generic ones stand out more ("Enjoy your meal with soup!" -- no mention of Campbell's, etc.) I think it is kind of sad, though, that the daytime shows aren't even forty minutes long after you take out the commercials.
