Drew was the only part of Who's Line is it Anyway that blew.

I found that show impossibly annoying, and only watched it when I wanted to be annoyed at something (I also imagine TheRover doing something like this, so we have more in common than he thinks). However, it was a pretty popular show that people really enjoyed so it's probably just me.

Carey's a fine choice by me but Barker's shoes are impossible to fill, like when Ray Combs replaced Richard Dawson on Family Feud except X100. And we all know how that ended.

I call dibs on Drew Carey in Death Pool 2008.

[censored] you man I love Whose Line? although the British version was far better of course. I approve of this selection. although I did just watch the Democrats debate so your overall point about me is accurate I guess.

Carey is smart, funny and will be excellent on this show.

He is not (and won't be) any of those things. He's annoying, his comedy isn't funny and it definitely isn't smart.

[Blarg]

His stand-up back when he was new was pretty good.

people loved bob barker - i don't see drew carey having that kind of appeal.

I think my pure hatred for this guy has come through, but when you think about it logically Carey isn't the right choice. He's a typical comedian who wants to be the center of attention and doesn't know how to back off. Hosting the Price of Right isn't really a job for a Comedian, imo.

no, it isn't - the contestants are supposed to be the comedy, bob barker was perfectly patronizing without being hateful.

also the concept of 'carey's beauties' makes me think of overweight clevelanders with stretch marks and teeth missing

They should just show a random rerun everyday ala the Peanuts comic strip.
