It's hard to believe the Price Is Right has been on the air for 55 years, and still does well in the ratings. But after more than five decades years on air (it started as a half hour show in 1972), inflation has finally caught up to the highest bidder. Turns out it costs a lot of money to store all those prizes and sets, and the show has had to move somewhere else and spend less for the rent.

When it finally returns to the air for season 55, you may not notice those changes but you will probably see this - they've also cut the audience down from 300 sitting in those chairs to just 128. That will not only make the wide shots stand out showing fewer people, but greatly increase the odds of those present being called to Come On Down.
