1. Nooooooooooooooooooooo!

NO!

NO!

NO!

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!


This make me not happy.

2. What an awful choice.

I just don't get Drew's appeal. He is not funny at all, imo.


:mad:

[Deja Q]

3. How about Fran Drescher?

:evilgrin:

I'd watch...


"Oh Mr. Sheffield!"

[bigwillq]

6. I like her.

I would watch her on Price is Right. I think she's funny...annoying at times...but usually funny.

[Left Is Write]

9. I would too.

Hell, I'd watch Sylvia and Yetta on TPIR if they'd just boot Carey before he starts!

They are going to ruin this show.

4. I remember laughing at him once.

HBO special. He said something that made me laugh that time.

[bigwillq]

7. Do you remember what it was?

:shrug:

[EstimatedProphet]

12. It was about people who preach at other people about not smoking

8. Price Is

Why dont we get Elizabitch Hasselbitch instead?? :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

11. He wasn't even funny on the Drew Carey show

The only reason I ever watched that show when I did was because of the other cast members. Ryan Stiles was great - he was a regular on the original British "Whose Line is it Anyways".

5. That sound you just heard is TPIR flushing itself down the toilet

That fat fucking slob couldn't even do a good job on "Whose Line is it Anyways", which had been a brilliant British comedy show until they decided to bring it over here and let that assclown host it. They should have given it to Rosie O'Donnell, like Bob Barker wanted.

Fuck CBS.

10. I can think of several candidates better suited to the job than Drew Carey.

WHAT are they thinking??!

[Zomby Woof]

13. Drew Carey is

a leaking boil on a sewer rat's ass.

[Left Is Write]

14. Wow.

You must like him, 'cause I was thinking much worse things than that.

:P

[Zomby Woof]

15. An ice sewer rat?

:evilgrin:

[LibraLiz1973]

16. Ugh, I won't be watching that

I can't stand Drew Carey. He's god awful.

I truly cant see D.C. being a good host.

[Zomby Woof]

17. Once his hand gets stuck in the Plinko board

His stint will be over quickly.

[qanda]

23. Me either

He talks to fast and mumbles his words. I have never been able to watch him without feeling uncomfortable. He's a bad choice regardless of his politics.

[Dukkha]

18. In a related story, The Price is Right will be canceled next year

due to fans not being receptive to "that mean wierd man"

[KamaAina]

19. "And the actual retail price of our Baghdad Showcase is..."

87 billion dollars! Susie, with a bid of 86 billion, you're our big winner! Tell her what she's won... :puke:

[gmoney]

20. Seems like a huge demotion for him...

From having two simultaneous prime time network programs to the daily grind of a gameshow that is essentially one long advertisement? (OK, dozens of small advertisements connected by inane games.) I thought his sitcom had its moments, although I was also quite smitten with Kate, but when it became all about Mimi or whatever the clownwoman's name was, especially when she started dating Craig Ferguson's character, forget it.

I bet he'll quit TPIR within a year... unless of course he uses it as a way to score women from the audience. ("Hey baby, how'd you like a new gas grill by Weber?")

[ruiner4u]

21. his career has been dead for a few years..

his sitcom tanked, whos line is it anyway gets its ratings from abc family channel on cable.. this is actually a promo for him... its work.. something he hasent had for a while

[Mojambo]

22. I think the word we're all searching for here is, "whatever."

Seriously. The second I start caring about any aspect of the Price is Right...
