On October 27th, 2003, announcer Rod Roddy died of colon and breast cancer. The producers started an immediate and extensive search for a new announcer. Randy West, Daniel Rosen, Burton Richardson, Art Sanders, Roger Rose, Rich Fields, Don Bishop, and Jim Thornton each did about two weeks of shows as an on-air audition. To choose a successor, a meeting was called between Bob Barker (Executive Producer), Roger Dobkowitz (Producer), Bart Eskander (Director), Kathy Greco (Associate Producer), and a representative from Fremantle. There were many different opinions, and after much discussion it was narrowed down between Fields and Thornton. In a final vote, the decision was made to hire Rich Fields as the show's third regular announcer.
