Drew Carey is Bob Barker's replacement
Drew Carey is Bob Barker's replacement
NEW YORK - Genial comic Drew Carey was tapped Monday to replace silver-haired legend Bob Barker on the CBS daytime game show "The Price is Right."
Carey confirmed the deal during a taping of the "Late Show" with David Letterman.
The selection attracted more attention than usual for a daytime show because of the prospect of replacing Barker, 83. Barker retired after 35 years in the job last month following taping of his 6,586th episode.
The opening attracted widespread interest, including from comic Rosie O'Donnell after she left "The View."
Carey, 49, spent a decade on his own ABC sitcom and also was host of the game show "Whose Line is It Anyway?," a comic improvisational show.
He will also be host of a new CBS prime-time game show, "The Power of 10," that will air first next month. He told The Associated Press that CBS officials first contacted him about "The Price is Right" immediately after he completed a pilot of the other game show this spring

Re: Drew Carey is Bob Barker's replacement
I think he is a great choice!! He's fantastic with thinking on his feet (and not being totally crass, like some other candidates), which is what I think that show needs!!

Re: Drew Carey is Bob Barker's replacement
I dont think that anyone wants to see a replacement. The best thing would be for him to make the show his own.
