CBS is inviting viewers to "Come on down" to remember Bob Barker in a primetime special Thursday.
Barker, who died Saturday at 99, served as host of CBS' "The Price is Right" for 35 years, from 1972 to 2007.
"The Price is Right: A Tribute to Bob Barker" will air Thursday (8 EDT/PDT and streaming on Paramount+), and again on Labor Day Monday (11 a.m. EDT/10 PDT) in the game show's regular time slot. Drew Carey, who replaced Barker as host of "The Price is Right," will emcee the special.
