Members kalbir Posted August 26, 2023 Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 @Faulkner Now that Bob Barker has passed, I fully expect so many horror stories about him to be exposed soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted August 26, 2023 Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 His story is extremely murky, and watching classic TPIR reruns from the early/mid 80s every day will definitely have you looking at him differently, but man, man, man...truly an icon of television and one of the titans of daytime. Just another reminder that the best is behind us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted August 26, 2023 Author Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 Funny that he and Betty White had somewhat similar trajectories in their final years. Both lost spouses to cancer in 1981 (!) and never remarried. Never had kids of their own. Devoted lives to animals. Died just shy of 100. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted August 26, 2023 Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 I just jumped back into both Dallas and Knots too. What a legend. Bob Barker, Jacobs, a slew of 'em lately - and too many of daytime's own. It'll just get harder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted August 26, 2023 Author Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 The rest of the 2020s and the 2030s are gonna be rough with 20th-century icons leaving here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted August 26, 2023 Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 RIP Bob another daytime and TV legend gone. Loved him when I was younger, but…. …after I watched that E True Hollywood Story about TPIR alongside with the high profile lawsuits being splashed all over the tabloids at the time, coupled with his alleged retaliation towards Roddy made it hard to watch TPIR for myself until Drew took over. A shame as he really was a TV icon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted August 26, 2023 Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) Definitely. If you look at the stars born in the 1930s and early 1940s who are still alive you realize just how rough it will be....

Members All My Shadows Posted August 26, 2023 Members Share Posted August 26, 2023 One of my fave instagram accounts said that Bob almost spun a dollar (represented as 100 cents on the big wheel) lol I'm mad I didn't think of that first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
