Gene Wood guest announcing TPIR helped him prepare for his future announing gigs, including the CBS and Syndicated remakes of Card Sharks, Family Feud with Ray Combs whenever The Price is Right played against The Young and The Restless. And of course, Classic Concentration!!!!!
He had several announcing gigs throughout the 1970s into the 1980s including Password Plus, Super Password, Tattletales, Family Feud with Richard Dawson, and Beat the Clock.
@UrsusTheodorusdoesGameShows ln fact, in early-1970s he hosted syndicated lst "Beat Clock" revival series when it was based outta C'ndn 🇨🇦 city, Mtl., Que.
@UrsusTheodorusdoesGameShows Yep! He was rarely describing prizes aside from fee plugs/consolation gifts on any of those shows, which also included Double Dare Trebek and Card Sharks Perry. So The Price is Right was a big step for Gene Wood, as well as Bob Hilton & Rich Jeffries, who were also Goodson/Todman announcer veterans.
It felt like Gene Wood in Card Sharks all over again just by describing the car, and his voice reminds me of Regis Philbin
He definitely had practice with car recall in this segment. Bob testing him.
I think Gene made a good announcer for the show.
Gene was absolutely brilliant on everything, especially Family Feud. TPIR’s gig involves A LOT MORE announcing, so Gene’s energy level may not have been what they needed. It’s like how Vin Scully and John Madden sounded excellent together in 1981 when they did football on CBS…but their own styles didn’t really jive together.
I liked Gene Wood as an announcer in the Price is Right. I remember him as a substitute game show announcer in the Price is Right when I was a little girl way back then watching it.
Congratulations 🎉🎆, Silvia. And next ➡️ month are two ✌️🏻 July _Price Is Right 👉🏻_ birthdays 🎉🎉: Former Barker's Beauty 💅🏼 (and Seattle native) Janice Pennington's (née Janice Maurine Pennington) 82nd birthday 🎉 (July 8) and former _Price Is Right 👉🏻_ producer (and San Francisco 🌉 native) Roger Dobkowitz's (née Roger Kurt Dobkowitz) 79th birthday 🎉 (July 30).
Gene was doing announcing Super Password he was doing Family Feud when it ended. But he did it for couple of weeks before Rod Roddy tookover. Then Rich Jeffries and Bob Hilton took turns announcing Price!
OMG I remember eons ago, a video titled The Bob and Bob Variety Hour had an episode of TPIR with Bob Hilton announcing.
Later in Season XIV (1985-1986) late Robert ("Rod") Roddy succeeded late John ("Johnny") Olson as new c'ntrct announcer, long-running game show revival series
^ That was announced in February of '86.
B.T.W., late Gene Wood was announcer for both, IInd/IIIrd "Password" revival series on NBC-TV Network under titles "Password Plus" and "Super P'sswrd" ("Password Plus" was on NBC from January, 1979 till March, 1982, while same "peacock" network aired "Super Password" from September, 1984 till March, 1989). And speaking, "Super Password", in its namesake bonus round, each time contestant failed to correctly get all 10 answers within min., why would jackpot be raised by $5,000.00 instead, $1,000.00 until someone gets all 10 answers right within min.? Now that, I.M.O., could've been done in "Alphabetics" bonus round, previous "Password" revival series under "Password Plus" title (January, 1979 till March, 1982) whenever contest failed to correctly guess all 10 answers within min./jackpot could've been raised by $1,000.00 each time no one got it until someone won it
After the passing of announcer Johnny Olsen, there were guest announcers on THE PRICE IS RIGHT, like Gene Wood, Charlie O'Donnell, Rich Jeffries, Bob Hilton, and Johnny Gilbert just before Rod Roddy became the new permanent announcer!
I don't recall Charlie O or Johnny Gilbert guest announcing at any time.
Think it was Gene ,Rod ,Rich ,Then Bob Hilton
Timing is everything - the original Family Feud (with Richard Dawson) ended in 1985, so this tided Gene over until that Bert Convy gameshow a lil bit later.
Gene Wood would have made an excellent permanent announcer
However, Gene had other obligations, including Super Password and Card Sharks Eubanks, when that premeired 2 months later
I respectfully disagree, his style is so unsuited for this show.
I think "Mean Gene" Okerlund would have done a good job
@@gfalcon that would have been really funny 😂I love Mean Gene
@@gfalconlmao!😂😂
According to your description, Rod Roddy took over as full-time announcer in February of 1986.
I thought Rod took over full-time after _Press Your Luck_ went off the air. That would've been September of 1986.
You learn something every day.
That would be correct, though. He was announced as the permanent replacement on 2/17/86. He had also been working on Love Connection around that time.
@silentbob3208 Late Robert ("Rod") Roddy was lst announcer, syndicated pgrm. "Love Connection" when it d'btd in 1983. He was also announcer, pair, other CBS-TV Network game shows:"Whew!", which "tiffany" network aired from April, 1979 thru May, 1980/"Press Your Luck", revival, short-lived 1977 ABC-TV Network game show "IInd Chance" which CBS aired from Sept., 1983 till Sept., 1986
Nope, he did both From Feb- Sept 1986
Although he was "Out Sick" for 3 or so weeks of taping on Press Your Luck .
Put out sick in quotes, as while PYL and TPIR taped at TV City, they taped in seperate studios, meaning it was likely both shows taped the same day.
Gene Wood was legendary RIP Gene Wood
Yes. Underrated, in my opinion.
Gene Wood was a legendary announcer in his own right, but just didn’t have it for TPIR. I will say though that I love his “Come on down!” in the opening sequence here and in other episodes I’ve seen with him announcing. I actually like it better than Rod’s. When it came to reading the prize copies though, he sounded just too scripted, whereas Rod sounded natural like Johnny did. Gene’s domain was the likes of Card Sharks, Password Plus, Super Password, and of course Family Feud among others, but TPIR was unmistakably Johnny’s. Still, Mark Goodson once said that he felt very lucky to have two announcers like Johnny and Gene working for him.
How long before Fremantle and Pluto will start airing Rod Roddy shows??
His permanent run won't begin in this current block. Maybe we'll see his audition episodes.
Maybe the end of the year or Early next year
Patience, my friend. Patience.
It will be a while, but will be worthing waiting for!
Gene was also the announcer for Password when Allen Ludden was the host.
And Family Feud from 1977 through the 90s.
Only during the "Super Password" run for Allen starting in 1979 and until his death from cancer in 1981. During the original run of "Password" in the 1960s, it was another man (don't recall who).
@@robbernath That was Password Plus in '79 when he worked with Allen. He would work with Bert Convy on Super Password and he was funny then too. Password was narrated by Jack Clark.
The original "Password" announcer (on the CBS series 1961-1967) was Jack Clark and he was also the substitute host for Allen Ludden when he was on vacation.
@@silentbob3208 yep - that's correct. Just knew it wasn't during the original "Password" run, which was itself quite good/entertaining - especially the episodes featuring Peter Lawford, Paul Anka, Carol Burnett and - of course - Betty White.
oooh wood paneled Dodge Aries station wagon!
Crap then and rusting away in some junk lot now. At least she didn't owe taxes on it.
I keep missing these older newer episodes, are they on Buzzr or the Barker Era Channel. I stay in the Eastern Time Zone.
These are being shown on the Barker Era channel but at 2-4pm ET. I haven't been able to catch many of them at that time.
Awwww @ 2:42
That shirt. I didn't spot it at first.
Kinda reminds me of the time Gene announced in TPIR crew when they were on Combs Feud in the 90s
This is Gene Wood speaking for Family Feud/Classic Concentration, a Mark Goodson Bill Todman production.
So y'all gonna finally air episodes past 1985 and not loop back to 1982?
They might get to the end of the year before this current set ends.
2:45
This also features a player playing the “5 price tags” challenge for a Dodge Aries Town and Country wagon! Unfortunately she had 2 shots at the wagon and blew both of them and lost!😞 😢
First off, Gene was a great announcer! But to me Johnny and Rods announcing style fit the price is right better. It's like Genes announcing style fit Family Feud does that make sense. Gene did fine here but Rod was the correct choice! No disrespect to Gene when it come to game show announcers he is near the top no doubt.
PLUTO! Many thanks for fresh new stuff!!
I believe Gene Wood also was the announcer on Classic Concentration, he also did Family Feud, Card Sharks, Super Password.
Yep 👍🏻, he sure 👍🏻 did. Oh, by the way ↕️, Heidi, next ➡️ month are two ✌️🏻 July _Price Is Right 👉🏻_ birthdays 🎉🎉: Former Barker's Beauty 💅🏼 (and Seattle native) Janice Pennington's (née Janice Maurine Pennington) 82nd birthday 🎉 (July 8) and former _Price Is Right 👉🏻_ producer (and San Francisco 🌉 native) Roger Dobkowitz's (née Roger Kurt Dobkowitz) 79th birthday 🎉 (July 30).
Ignore and mute James McClelland.
You are right, though, Gene did do Classic Concentration with the LEGEND Alex Trebek. I really enjoyed his work on Feud and Super Password.
Not crazy over his short announcing gig myself, but finally we’ve reached this milestone after SO LONG!
In case anyone was wondering if this is it for Olson, it's not over quite yet. He will appear in four more upcoming episodes beginning Sunday.
Love Gene, but not announcing TPIR
I agree, his voice doesn't fit The Price Is Right Announcing System.
From the opening segment of *EPISODE 5882D* (11/12/85) of The Price is Right. Gene Wood is another legendary announcer best known for his work on Family Feud during this time.
Hi holly Halstorm from JB3 ❤
Gene was a good announcer but I'm glad they chose Rod! Rod made it sound just as exciting as Johnny.. Gene didn't "IT" to be permanent for TPIR! THIS IS MY OPINION!
This is actually from November 12, 1985, not the 7th.
I'll be glad when we hear Rod Roddy's audition episode.
December 1985
Rod Audition was December 4th, 1️⃣9️⃣8️⃣5️⃣. He was doing double duty on Daytime and Night-Time Price is Right ✅️
@@bellantonioabraham6920 That's right 👉🏻.
They should have Richard dawson.
This segment is brought to you by the color blue.
Barker beauties were wearing a pretty blue outfit too, Helen and the car had some blue😂💙
And the letters "T," " P, " "I," and " R. "
I remember Burton Richardson announcing TPIR before Rich Fields.
6:00 Gene is being put to the test already like Olson often was. "What kind of a car is it?"
I've been comments from several people was Gene Wood's voice was not appropriate enough for the show, that it felt a little bit on the harsh side, also his delivery on the show, was not! I know he tried his best at it, when it wasn't good enough, there, so Mark Goodson hired Rod Roddy, instead, a few mos. later, in early 1986. I was so glad he filled-in for his mentor (Johnny Olson) anyways, and substituted, until there were several other announcers getting Johnny's job, until Rod took over, and yes, Rod had plenty of announcing experience, too, including the more successful game show, "Press Your Luck."
Gene just didn't quite fit with the audience participation aspect of the show even though he had hosted Beat the Clock for a time in Canada. Good thing Rod Roddy got the gig.
We saw Rod all the time, calling down the final contestant. At first, he wore strangely colored blazers, but then he went for Thai silk later on.
Now, George Gray is seen doing that... twice. Sometimes, he might fill in as a third model, too. He always sends a shout-out to "Mama Mai" when Drew enters.

@@davidellis5141 Well, it's true.
After the passing of announcer Johnny Olsen, there were guest announcers on THE PRICE IS RIGHT, like Gene Wood, Charlie O'Donnell, Rich Jeffries, Bob Hilton, and Johnny Gilbert just before Rod Roddy became the new permanent announcer!
Speaking, Johnny Gilbert, he was announcer, N.Y. City, N.Y.-based original "P.I R." series after pgrm. sw'tchd TV n'twrks from NBC to ABC in late-S'mmr, 1963
