Well, another season of TPIR comes to an end this week - and it's been an absolute blast! Drew has come such a long way in such a short time as the show's new host and I truly believe that he has done a fantastic job. He treats every contestant like they're family, he has a blast with the games (especially during Cliff Hangers and One Away), and I love his interaction with Rich and the models. I did have my doubts when he was initially chosen as Bob's successor, but now I know that he is comfortable in this kind of environment. Way to go, Drew!
We saw tons of great stuff this season - themed shows for Halloween, Christmas and the 4th of July, tons of funny moments (such as the now recent classic from June 27 where Rich messes up a prize copy), scores of great contestants, incredible wins and a fantastic string of Million Dollar Spectaculars where we saw not one, not two...but three new millionaires crowned! Adam, Michael and Cynthia - congrats once again.
But with all this joy comes a little sadness - we recently learned that a long-time friend and producer of the show, Roger Dobkowitz (who some of us affectionately refer to as "The Dob"), was let go from his position and is leaving the show after 36 years of loyal service. Us Loyal Friends and True wish him the very best in his future endeavors, and we at Golden-Road.net know The Dob will never be stopped!
All in all, a fabulous season nonetheless. Thank you to Drew, Rich and the entire TPIR cast and crew for a wonderful season this year and it should be interesting to see what Season 37 will hold for us
Till then...have a great summer!
