Since Season 36, there were only three colors on the audience curtains instead of four.

However, the curtains were silvery during The Price is Right 25th Anniversary Special on August 23, 1996, and returned on October 13, 1997 (#0481K) to October 20, 1997 (#0491K) due to the lights behind the curtains left on over the weekend, which burnt holes in the curtains. Similar to the curtains used in the 1986 primetime specials. From April 18, 1995 (#9552D) to May 3, 1995 (#9573D), the dark red curtains were seen, which were possibly forgotten to be taken down from The New Price is Right with Doug Davidson.
