34th ANNUAL DAYTIME EMMY AWARDS
June 16, 2007 (Saturday)
Congratulations, Bob Barker! 19 Emmys!
Did you know that Dr. Phil McGraw and his wife Robin spent part of their honeymoon being in The Price of Right audience? Last night, while honoring Mr Barker, he even took out and showed their original name tags. His says “Phillip.”
Also had no idea that Craig Ferguson actually tapes at CBS next to the Bob Barker Studio on Beverly and Fairfax. Craig was like, he watched The Price is Right “as a kid, as did my father and his father before him…” I’ve never sat down to watch his show and didn’t think he was so funny. CF talked to Melva who had been watching Bob there a hundred times and had never before been a contestant… until the last day of taping!

I want Daniel C. Baker to do my facelift. Barbara Walters does not look like she was born in 1929.
