From Engadget:
Truth be told, The Price is Right has indeed been airing in high-definition for the past couple of weeks just as we heard it would, but we figured it prudent to affirm that yes, the famed game show is indeed now in high-definition. As far as we know, CBS will continue broadcasting the daytime mainstay in high-def after its stint on Friday nights is up, so be sure and set that HD DVR for all you folks holding it down with the 8 to 5 whenever.

The Friday night episodes have reportedly been in HD since February 22nd, although I have not verified this.

I can verify that the primetime specials the last couple Fridays have, in fact, aired in HD (another one is scheduled for tonight). I don't think the daytime show is broadcast that way yet (though I don't watch it).
The studio was upgraded to HD a while ago and Bill Maher's HBO show has been aifring in HD (it's filmed in the same studio) for a couple months, but they didn't start filming Price in HD until the primetime shows.
ETA: It doesn't look like the daytime show is in HD yet. Checking the full episodes on CBS' Innertube, last Friday's snow is letterboxed whereas yesterday's daytime show is not. If it aired in HD, I assume they'd letterbox it on IT like the special.

The daytime show went HD today. From Endgadget: Some four months after The Price is Right made the leap to high-definition on Friday nights, the daytime variant of the famed game show has now followed suit. During today's first pricing game, host Drew Carey proudly proclaimed that the show was now airing in HD during the day, after which kids home from school and grandparents with TVs from 1982 celebrated and did nothing, respectively. |
