 "The Price Is Right" is one of two game show franchises (along with "To Tell the Truth") to be seen nationally in either first-run network or syndication airings in the U.S. in every decade from the 1950s onward.CBS has occasionally aired extra episodes of the show for short periods between the cancellation of one daytime program and the premiere of its successor.On occasion since 1986, special episodes have aired during prime time hours, most notably to fill in gaps between the "Survivor" series, and during the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike.
