According to the Daily Media News Feed on Media Bistro:
DREW CAREY NAMED NEW PRICE IS RIGHT HOST
"Carey announced that he will replace Bob Barker as the host of The Price is Right during Monday's taping of the Late Show with David Letterman. Speculation about Carey assuming the sought-after spot had been building since his appearance last week at the CBS portion of the Television Critics Association tour to promote the upcoming prime time game show he is hosting, Power of 10."
As long as he still insists we spay and neuter our pets and otherwise leaves the show as-is, I'm pleased with this choice.
(And THANK GOD it wasn't Rosie. Bob Barker would never toss a Koosh ball.)
(And, no, that's not a euphamism.)
(Because a Koosh ball is a TOY.)
(Yet I'll still get emails accusing me of hate speech.)
(Many, many presumptive, stupid emails.)
(OK, back to work now.)
I definitely think it might be a downer. He's funny but not that funny. And I just didn't see him as price as right material

We must be on the same wavelength...because, I blogged about YOU and your book(s) and your blog and about Drew Carey all in the same entry this morning. Interesting. See for yourself: http://howeveralthough.typepad.com/however_although_thus_sev/2007/07/bitter-is-the-n.html
And I agree, a good choice.
