"the price is right" is one of two game show franchises (along with "to tell the truth") to be seen nationally in either first-run network or syndication airings in the u.s. in every decade from the 1950s onward. cbs has occasionally aired extra episodes of the show for short periods between the cancellation of one daytime program and the premiere of its successor. on occasion since 1986, special episodes have aired during prime time hours, most notably to fill in gaps between the "survivor" series, and during the 2007–08 writers guild of america strike.

in 1975, kbs formally relaunched as rpn, the acronym for its franchise name, radio philippines network (the rpn name was first used in the provincial stations before the rpn brand would later be used for the manila station as well; the kbs name was also used for other aspects such as kbs sports until 1986). the network covered special events such as the olympic games (it is also the first sporting coverage to broadcast in full color), thrilla in manila in 1975; and also became the official broadcaster for the miss universe pageant held in manila in 1974; and programs such as "john en marsha" (which both the media and academe regarded the show as the paradigm of development communication), "flordeluna" and "superstar" (formerly known as "the nora aunor-eddie peregrina show"). rpn became the birthplace and the first humble abode of the now longest running daytime variety show "eat bulaga!" (premiering in 1979); as well as the longest running game show on philippine television "family kuarta o kahon" hosted by pepe pimentel (originally aired on abs-cbn then bbc-2); which it aired for almost 38 years, until it finally folded up during the year 2000. the network also pioneered the use of computer graphics for their program plugs and station ids, as well as for the broadcasts of its easily recognizable digital clock embedded on the lower left part of the screen during the entire broadcast day except for newscasts, commercials, continuity plugs, station id, and during sign-off; eventually becoming the centerpiece of the network's broadcasts for 32 years (starting in 1975), until it was abandoned in 2007; and after the fire that razed its first studios on june 6, 1973, rpn moved to the broadcast plaza (now abs-cbn broadcasting center) in the same year, and to its current broadcast city home in july 1978, alongside sister networks bbc and ibc.
