[[Broadcast syndication|Syndicated]] versions of the show have also been aired parallel with the CBS version.  The first syndicated version, referred to on-air as ''The Nighttime Price Is Right'' (but still branded as ''The Price Is Right'' on-screen) to distinguish it from the CBS version, ran in weekly syndication from 1972 to 1980 and was originally hosted by Dennis James until 1977, when Barker took over hosting duties, while the second version ran in daily syndication for one season in 1985-86 and was hosted by Tom Kennedy; both versions featured the same games as on CBS.  A third version, called ''The New Price Is Right'' and hosted by Doug Davidson (from CBS soap opera ''The Young and the Restless''), debuted in September 1994 but ended production in January 1995 due to low ratings; while similar to the CBS version, the Davidson version had some significant differences in game play from the parent show.
