| No, he is too goofy and won't take the proceedings seriously. |

| Maybe, at least it is a superior choice over Rosie O'Donnell. |

I grew up watching this show. I even recall that my grandparents let me watch it before I even started school. It never occured to me that Bob Barker would retire someday. Well, that day has come and a new host has been announced. It's time for the SST community to sound off, is Drew Carey a good choice to host this game show?

my first thought when I heard this news...
I guess ABC didn't like being called the Drew Carey network, so he sold out to CBS 
I think he'll do fine as the new host of Price is Right. Maybe they'll get some new games with the new host.

New games would be great, although Plinko must stay! One thing for sure though is that they really should consider updating their stage sets. Talk about still being stuck in the 70's. Maybe they should be considering moving to a larger studio. That place looks crammed.
BTW, I say the theme song stays.

Speaking of Drew Carey, I just saw Power of 10. Drew is amusing, but I wish they'd knock it up to a TV-14 so he can make some really filthy remarks. I haven't seen a TV-14 game show since Win Ben Stein's Money. Before that, it was Studs and S3x Wars.

Well, his audience on Power of 10 would probably like a little dirty wit, BUT not the Price is Right folks. I think, even with tv nowadays, I don't have to hear dirty jokes to be entertained.
