To ring in his 90th year, Bob Barker is returning to “The Price Is Right.”

CBS has announced that the daytime game show will honor Barker’s big day with a weeklong celebration starting December 9. Each episode will put a spotlight on pet adoptions, a cause that’s special to the iconic host.

On the day of his birthday, December 12, Barker will also make an appearance on “The Price Is Right” and present a special showcase.

The long-running game show, which is now hosted by Drew Carey, has been on the air since 1972, with Barker an indelible part of its legacy. The game show host recently retired from the program in 2007.
