So they come back from commercial break and Drew explains that the 1st lady has already spun in the spin-off..............but the cameras weren't rolling! WAS IT VODKA DAY ON T.P.I.R.?
Her 85 is allowed to stay and she says HI to her family. Drew said even though we didn't see it the 300 people in the audience were all witnesses.

What episode was this, because I believe they're currently in reruns for most of the summer.

I didn't see this show, but my suspicion is that either the contestant jumped the gun, or Drew may have prematurely told her to spin the wheel. Network game show standards and practices probably dictated that the result of that spin had to stand, even though it wasn't recorded.

The Price is Right snafu'd when they selected the successor to Bob Barker, who promptly brought in all of his cronies and toadies.
What you have now is a hybrid between an iconic game show and a tired, old, worn out sitcom.

This, to me, was the ultimate "Price Is Right" snafu: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evlpffT2az8

The other iconic daytime game shows are dead, so maybe some kind of hybridity is keeping this one alive...despite the number of people updating us on their daily foibles and 'mistakes...."

It was a rerun, but I don't know when it originally aired.

I have a horrible feeling this was a secret test to see if the audience would accept this, then they could cut the segment and air more commercials instead

Nope, that would be the current Australian version -- which happens to be one big nightly infomercial for retailer Big W -- we discussed in another thread (Better quality video of the A Current Affair piece on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_rICzY4LaQ. The 1994 nighttime TPIR was a little alright IMO, only that it and most daytime soaps were getting, uh..."murdered" in the ratings by the O.J. Simpson trial.
