Whenever a generation found ourselves out of sorts, out of place, or out of touch during what is surely a child's prime time--midmornings on weekdays--"The Price Is Right" was a showcase for the humane Bob Barker. Bid farewell!

A publicist says the enduring and dapper game show host Bob Barker has died at his home in Los Angeles. Barker was 99 and was a household name for more than a half-century as host of “Truth or Consequences” and “The Price Is Right.” Barker retired in June 2007, thanking his studio audience “for inviting me into your home for more than 50 years.” He started that marathon run in 1956 on “Truth or Consequences,” where he remained for 18 years. He began hosting a revived version of “The Price Is Right” on CBS in 1972. It would become TV’s longest-running game show. He was also an animal rights activist.
Watched many episodes of The Price Is Right as a kid. Thanks for all of the memories, Bob.
