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.

“This tribute to the legendary Bob Barker will bring back great memories for generations of 'The Price is Right' fans who loved Bob, his humor, his ability to connect with contestants and his innate talent for making the most out of every moment,” Margot Wain, senior VP of daytime programs, said in an announcement for the tribute. “We’re so pleased to be able to salute his many accomplishments and honor his memory in this way.”
The special will revisit Barker's first turn as host of the long-running game show and his last before retirement, the debut of the game Plinko and Barker's return to "The Price is Right" for his 90th birthday.
