In an exciting development for game show fans, John Quinn has been appointed as the new showrunner and executive producer for the legendary CBS game show The Price is Right. Quinn, who already serves as the showrunner for Let’s Make a Deal and Press Your Luck, will bring his signature creativity and innovative spirit to The Price is Right as it gears up for its 54th season.

Having worked behind the scenes on some of television’s most iconic game shows, Quinn’s passion for the industry is undeniable. In a heartfelt statement, Quinn shared his gratitude and excitement about taking the helm of The Price is Right, a show that has captured the hearts of millions of viewers for over five decades. “It’s the show we all watched during summer break and when we were home sick from school,” Quinn said. “This show is a major reason why I work on game shows in the first place, so to be a part of it now is an honor that I do not take lightly. I am beyond grateful and still pinching myself!”

With Quinn at the helm, fans can expect a fresh approach while still honoring the rich history and beloved traditions of the show. One of the most exciting aspects of the new season will be the introduction of specially themed episodes, including Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Valentine’s Day, Pet Adoption Week, Mother’s Day, and School’s Out. These episodes are sure to add an emotional and heartwarming layer to the game show’s already iconic format.

Perhaps the most thrilling announcement for fans is the debut of a brand new pricing game, which Quinn and his team are already working on. The addition of new games has long been a hallmark of The Price is Right, and this upcoming innovation promises to keep the show feeling fresh and exciting for both new viewers and long-time fans.

As Quinn steps into the role, he follows in the footsteps of Evelyn Warfel, the show’s previous showrunner. While Quinn acknowledges the tremendous legacy that Warfel leaves behind, he is eager to bring his own unique vision to the show. “From the second I came on board I have felt at home, and that is a testament to the spectacular staff and crew who have been making this show a staple of American television for 53 years,” Quinn said, reflecting on the warm welcome he received from the team.

Jennifer Mullin, CEO of Fremantle, the production company behind The Price is Right, also expressed her excitement about Quinn’s new role. “John brings a dynamic energy, remarkable creativity, and a collaborative spirit that elevates every production he touches,” Mullin said. “Combined with his rare ability to adapt with the times while honoring tradition, make him the ideal choice to carry this iconic mainstay of television forward.”

With production for season 54 already underway at Fremantle’s Haven Studios in Glendale, California, it’s clear that The Price is Right is in for a revitalizing, yet faithful, new era. As Quinn takes the reins, viewers can rest assured that the beloved game show will continue to entertain, inspire, and create lasting memories for years to come.

As the show enters its 54th season, it’s evident that Quinn’s leadership will mark an exciting new chapter for The Price is Right. Whether it’s through new games, heartwarming themed episodes, or his collaborative spirit with the team, Quinn is determined to keep the show’s legacy alive while infusing it with new energy. Fans of all ages will undoubtedly tune in, eager to see how Quinn’s vision unfolds on the stage of one of the most cherished television programs in history.
