So it seems that Drew Carey has been chosen to replace Bob Barker as host.

Good choice? Bad Choice? Undecided?

Being appointed successor to a cultural icon would be tough. I suppose Drew would do as well as anyone.

I stopped caring when Rod Roddy died. I don't just mean about the show, I mean about everything.

Drew Carrie would not seem to fit the show, IMO. He will take it in a new direction and it will fail, which may be a good thing, cause I always thought that Bob Barker WAS the Price is Right. Without him, the show should stop. It would be like Match Game without Gene Rayburn:eek:

Look how great millionaire without Regis is doing:P, to me, not so good:doh:

Do you think they'll finally update the set from that 60's look?

I object to Novus Ordo Price is Right! ;) Bring back the Traditional Bob Barker Price is Right (or TBBRIR for short). ;) Is nothing sacred any more? ;)

Actually, truth be told, I don't really care for game shows. :) I find Jeopardy somewhat watchable, but that's about it. I don't think I've even ever seen a full episode of "The Price is Right", so I can't really comment on it in a serious way, though I did enjoy Drew Carey's work on "The Drew Carey Show". Drew Carey seemed such a natural to play Drew Carey, almost as if he'd been born for the role. ;)

I like Drew's work on Whose line is it anyway. Why can't americans appreciate improv?!

The nauseating 60's colors go along with wanton consumerism, no?:D

Noone can replace Bob Barker. That said, Drew Carey isn't the best choice. They need to find someone unknown.

Then again, the show is nothing more than a series of mini-commercials... and they still take breaks for full-length commericals.

Why don't they just end the show? Hasn't it been on long enough? Like 30 years or something? :scratch:

They could have gotten Louie Anderson for the job. He's not doing Family Feud anymore.
