Now THAT is going to be interesting...doesn't he host some new game show that starts next month?

I can't wait to hear him sign off the show for the first time.

this is dumb. They don't need someone to make jokes. They should have gotten a gameshow host. Seasoned or an unknown.

You're exactly right. The Price is Right is no joke!

That's the trend. Every new gameshow now has a comedian as the host.

Listen, the two leading contenders have been Drew Carey and Rosie O'Donnell from the day Barker said he was retiring.

Of the two, I'm a-okay with Drew.

Yeah, wouldn't ever watch it again if Rosie was involved.

I like Drew Carey. He's a good host in the things he's done before (albeit I think that was just Whose Line).

Didn't he do Family Feud at some point?

No, that was Louie Anderson, I think you are thinking of.

No Louie is from MN and Drew is from Ohio. Sad things I know about heavy, white comedians.

Drew could be good, but he won't be great. I'll still watch.

They should've tried to wrangle Howie Mandel from NBC.

I like Drew Carey. I agree he wouldn't be my first choice but he'll be entertaining.

has this been confirmed? I haven't seen any articles saying that and then last night I saw a commercial for a new gameshow on CBS hosted by Drew Carey. Surely he's not doing 2 gameshows.

Drew found out 15 minutes before he was to go on the air on Dave Letterman and he broke the news on the show earlier this week.

He wasn't contacted about the Price Is Right going anywhere until after the pilot of the new gameshow.

He's big enough to cover two shows!
