Tonight in Seattle:  

Drew Carey to Host The Price Is Right

Hmm... I'm still too blurry eyed from the trip to process this headline:

Drew Carey to host The Price is Right

PRO: I'd trust Drew alone with my children - which is more than I can say for some of the other guys rumored to be up for the job (J. Peterman).

CON: Who's Line Is It Anyway makes my stomach churn. But I *could* grow to blame that solely on the show's 'improv' element rather than him as a host.

 

Regardless, I'm still practicing my fake slip when spinning the big wheel. And I imagine the grab in the $100 pocket practice will continue on.

Liz, you beat me to this post! I was just starting to compose my entry when I saw you already did.

At least we now know who'll host - much as we finally know the end of the Harry Potter series. I feel pleasantly calm about the world, finally having some answers.

Closure is good. I'm glad you two finally have a sense of peace!!

Wow! I have to say, I find this the least offensive choice possible. I like Drew, I enjoyed "Whose Line" for the most part (Wayne Brady grew to grate on my nerves), and I couldn't imagine The Price is Right in the hands of some second-rate star like J. Peterman, or anyone who's ever hosted The Family Feud for that matter — except maybe Richard Dawson, just to watch him try to make out with all the guests.

But yeah, for me = Go Drew!

I don't know about the trusting-with-children part, but I agree with everything else. Could be better (Rosie), could be worse (Peterman).

And OMG! Welcome back to the 206!!!!

Sometimes the Superficial makes my day.

Comments on Carey & TPIR:

Remember when they were considering Rosie O'Donnell to host? Man, they made the right decision. I'd actually watch Drew Carey on "The Price Is Right", whereas if it was Rosie I'd just spend the entire hour punching my TV to death. And Rosie? Well she'd spend the entire hour licking her fingers and struggling to breathe.

Oh bageezy. This threw me into a fit of giggles. Yes, giggles. Thanks for the lift.
