Well folks its October 15th 2007, the dawning of a new era on the price is right. Once the show airs this morning I figured it would be fun to post our thoughts on Drews first show here so fire away!!!!

Drew seems a bit stiff, but it is his first day hosting a show that someone else has worked on for 35 years. I'll be happy to give him a bit more time. At least he's not too loud and he still looks like he's having fun.

I wouldn't have changed the main theme, but at least they just updated it and didn't change it to some techno-esque garbage that repeats itself every 4-7 notes (Lingo's 2002 theme, I'm talking to YOU).

...we are up to 3 wins! :) :D ;) :p :cool: :talk: :crazy: :lol: :happyface :wave:

First episode all 6 pricing games won and 2 $1,000 winners on the big wheel.:D

He needs to lose some weight.

Seemed to SPOOFY to me instead of a new era. I will save my comments for my rant on Saturday-lol

He needs to lose some weight.
Drew is capable of keeping the show moving regardless of how much he weighs. He still looks presentable, and I'd much rather have an average looking host any day than someone hot who obviously doesn't need to be on a game show set hosting anything.

Drew Carey did a good job,but remember this only the first day,i think he get a whole lot better remainder of the week. i'm am proud on his first day that he had perfect shows,77 perfect shows in TPIR History. i love the The Price is Right theme,Come on Down theme,and Showcase Showdown theme,Edd Kalehoff and folks at Score productions remixed these themes in stereo did a awesome job with these themes. i beileve Drew will make The Price is Right his home.

Let me first say that this show was taped on August 28th & was actually the 10th show that he ever taped. It was not the 1st show that he taped. They are airing out of order early on in the season so we don't see the same games day in & day out. I am looking foward to seeing his first show that he actually taped.


On to my thoughts:

I think the show was an absolute & utter mess. Keep in mind that my opinion is from a lifelong price fan who loved Bob barker & his style.

I know the barker era is over & now the carey era is under way but some of the basic things that need to be done on the show (explaining the big wheel, explaining what is happening with the showcases etc) he just didn't do when he needed to do.

I think that if you have never watched the show before or you are just a casual fan of the show & this was the first time, I think people would think Drew was fine but from a diehard price fan who has watched for more than 25 years, today was very hard.

I heard the new theme ahead of time & i didn't like it when I heard it at first but on the show i kinda liked it. I really liked the come on down music. It sounded very sharp. So overall I don't mind the new music.

The set I got many looks at ahead of time & was prepared for it & i think it is ok, it doesn't look bad on tv.

Drew I think in time will be fine, it is clear that he is making the show his own & that is crucial & that is probably half the reason I am having a tough time with it right now although i did like his mountain climber comments during the cliffhangers game.

He just has to get the " price basics & fundamentals" down, once he does i think he will be ok & i do believe the show is in good hands.

I enjoyed Drew's first show today. I liked the changes made to the set and the re-recorded music cues. Drew was very funny in some games, like Cliffhangers, plus he wasn't rushing some games like Bob did, especially It's in the Bag. I think he'll do fine, he's a hit with the audience. I've been watching TPIR for 25 years (I'm 28). My grandmother isn't so sure about Drew, she complained 'it's not the same without Bob'.

Ok well that explains why he didn't say anything about taking over as the new host.-lol I was wondering why he just came out and started the show without stating that he is glad to be the new host and expect the new era to be just as exciting as the previous. So I didn't see that because it wasn't the first show-lol THANKS MRIGGLES

Probably because he was TOO STIFF. I don't know if it was because of NERVES or his Small Suit

I loved it when he said "try not to hurt the Yodel man" to the Cliffhangers contestant. And as much as I respected most of Bob's hosting abilities, the one thing he did in the final few years I could not stand was how he was basically like "HURRY UP!!!" every five minutes. And the one time Drew did need to rush someone, he was rather polite.

Mriggles i agree with you 100% percent,i want to see August 15th the very first taping. i hope they show it next week or end this month,we may know by end of this week when they gonna show it. i agree Drew does need little more work on his price basics and Fundamentals. tomorrow's show will be August 17th Taping. i dunno if it's 5th show or 6th show of Drew's.

Drew made another mistake when one of the contestants spinned the wheel and got 50 on their first try and then he said-"Do you want to keep it or spin again?


DUH?? Why wouldn't someone want to spin again if they only got 50 on their first Try?

I loved it when he said "try not to hurt the Yodel man" to the Cliffhangers contestant. And as much as I respected most of Bob's hosting abilities, the one thing he did in the final few years I could not stand was how he was basically like "HURRY UP!!!" every five minutes. And the one time Drew did need to rush someone, he was rather polite.I also liked it when the female contestant called the mountain climber in the "Cliffhangers"game,which she won,called the mountain climber "the yodel man",and Drew did get a bit edgy,(but not testy like Bob Barker got at times),and despite a few bugs,(in the first "Showcase Showdown" some woman gave the wheel a VERY WEAK spin (she should have spun again)and earlier on in the one bid game a player bid the same price as another player,(the contestant who bid first corrected the player ),but they let it ride.),it was pretty good,but in closing,it WILL NEVER be the same,despite working out all the bugs which they will.

I thought today's show was ok but it definitely looks like Drew needs more time before he gets comfortable with being the new host and starts to shine with his unique character and humor. :)

I think the show was an absolute & utter mess.

Agreed.

Today's show was just weak.

Well folks its October 15th 2007, the dawning of a new era on the price is right. Once the show airs this morning I figured it would be fun to post our thoughts on Drews first show here so fire away!!!!

Do you know when they will show the first episode that Drew did?

If the 10th show was like that, I just can just imagine how bad the 1st one was which is why CBS probably didn't air it

You bring up a very good point! It will probably be painful to watch if they decide to show it.

Didn't like it. It was too weird, the pacing was bizarre and very rushed, and the contestants were out of control. Bob would have NEVER allowed someone to run to the car BEFORE the pricing game started, and Drew made a lot of mistakes also and seemed extremely nervous. I can't believe this was the TENTH show, ouch.

I know Bob's shoes are probably impossible to fill, but this mess was very disappointing.

I know why were all the contestants acting so GOOFY?-lol And it did seemed really fast the way the show was moving. Very ODD

tomorrow was drews 5th show....eventually the shows will be taped & aired in order but for now it is going to be weird!!

Do you know when they will show the first episode that Drew did?


I will get back to you all on that. I believe it is a week from monday but I will find out for sure

He needs to lose some weight.
Hey, if Judith Cohen can be fat, so can Drew. :crazy: Drew is very handsome. He is not thin, but he is not huge either. I'd date him.

If the 10th show was like that, I just can just imagine how bad the 1st one was which is why CBS probably didn't air it


it will be aired Sol, just not 100% sure when yet. They chose todays show since it was a perfect show & they got the new era off with a bang

I know why were all the contestants acting so GOOFY?-lol And it did seemed really fast the way the show was moving. Very ODD


very fast moving show today & very bad segues between drew & rich

I expect that they showed Show #10 the first day cause it was a "perfect" day (All 6 games won) and they know that viewers hold on to see if the trend holds for the entire show...maybe they should tape 12 shows a day, then only air the "perfect" ones! :lol:

I wonder how the price is Right did

Well, to be honest, Bob always asked no matter how much the person got on their first spin. The unwritten rule amongst die-hard TPIRers is that 65 or higher, you keep, anything lower, you spin again. Bob would usually just be like "I'm sure you would like to spin again..." but he'd have a question mark on it.

I'm hot and cold on Drew so far. He was too nervous and fidgety to say it was his tenth show. He kept putting his hands in his pockets and taking them out too much, like he was in an awkward position.

Two things that I absolutely DID NOT LIKE AT ALL were the new showcase podiums and the new "contestants not appearing on stage" music. Those podiums were HIDEOUS and we lost of the legendary TPIR astericks for THOSE things?! And the new CNAOS music is soooo not TPIR.

Oh you noticed that too-lol I was wondering why he kept messing with the pocket on his suit jacket

There was one really miniscule thing that I did not care for at all. I’m disappointed that the “Mark Goodson television production” spiel is now replaced with “A Fremantle Media production." We see the FremantleMedia logo again within 10 seconds, so it just makes this practice redundant now.

But as far as the show as a whole goes, it could have really been much worse. Imagine Fremantle having the idea that since Bob is gone, they can now treat TPIR now like they've done with some of their other game shows they've tried to make modern in the recent past while completely trashing the previous eras' legacies (i.e. Match Game, Card Sharks). I honestly think we got off really lucky in this regard.

Agreed... I was quite disapointed to hear rich say a fremantle media production.... It truly is a new era

After watching todays show (tues) I think he did a far better job with the basic premice of the show. I think the show is in good hands, it is just going to take time to get used to someone else coming thru the big doors

I dont know if yall know this but if yall ever miss The Price is Right you can watch it online www.CBS.com

I watched the show yesterday and it was horrible. It was not as good as Bob Barker hosted the show. I'm not a big Drew Carey fan, but this show is so bad. I love Bob Barker so much, but I do missed him a lot.

As for the set, it looks terrible and the theme music was god awful except a couple of pricing games that are good when Bob was hosting the show right up until the very end. As for the Showcase round, the podiums are terrible, I missed the old one from the last season and the last 35 years of that show, and the ending to that show that usually had the Mark Goodson logo, but it was replaced by Fremantle Media. Come on! I love the Mark Goodson logo so much as Rich Fields would say at the very end of its final show with Bob Barker.

I don't like the 36th season episodes of "The Price Is Right", but I will have to watched something else. I missed Bob Barker hosted the show since I was a kid right up to the very end. I'll give it a thumbs down for that! I'll watch something else like "Jeopardy!" or "Wheel of Fortune".

I do have to say that I miss Bob Barker as well

I actually watched today, Drew carey is stiff , he just stands there with the mike, no arm movement, nothing and his high squeeky voice sounds terrible after Bobs baritone
I was NOT impressed...he was awful!

I hope GSN airs The Bob Barker Reruns of The Price is Right

Watching the show today I noticed something. Anyone else catch Drew speaking too closely to the mike and you can hear that sound that one makes when they have their mouth too close to a mike? I am sure all these goofs and other things will eventually work out. Drew needs time to adjust, no different than anyone of us at a new job, especially working in a spot that was held by someone as highly regarded as Bob Barker.

Hell, I have seen Tom Kennedy and a few other hosts do TPIR and believe me, this is no different. For those who can only see Bob, did you ever see TPIR versions with the other hosts? I have seen the daytime versions and the nighttime versions. Each host had their own unique style and way of hosting. But I never found it weird simply because Bob wasn't the one hosting it.

It took time for me to warm up to Dennis James, but it took really no time at all for me to warm up to Tom Kennedy or Bill Cullen. I loved those versions.

Barker had 35 years of practice. Drew Carey has had two shows so far. It would be weird no matter who replaced Bob Barker just because it's not Bob Barker. I hope people at least give him a chance.

People give the man a chance. He is replacing the person who had the show for 35 years. Give him time to get used to the job. Bob worked my nerves at the end. His patience with the contestants was getting worse by the month and rushing them. Drew is a refreshing change and just give the man time to adjust and not so quick to dissect him.

Totallly Irene, they need to take care of that audio problem, it is downright annoying. Im glad I am not the only one who noticed that

Its my favorite show & i will watch no matter what & Like i have said I think the show is in the right hands & we all just have to get used to life without BOB & DRew has to make the show his own, while he does that we have to allow him to do that. I saw marked improvement in show 2 although ironically the show that aired yesterday was the 5th show that he ever taped & the first one was his 10th...lol

I so agree with that comment.

I will get back to you all on that. I believe it is a week from monday but I will find out for sure

Thanks! It will be greatly appreciated.

Amen!!!

I enjoy TPIR regardless of who's the host. TPIR is back and that all that matters to me. Drew did fairly well (Despite looking a little nervous).

As the week progressed he got more relaxed.

I agree! Let's give Drew some time to adjust to being the new host.

How much time should we give him? a Year?

How much time should we give him? a Year?
And who are you to decide how long it should be? :crazy:

You think Bob was perfect the first time he hosted a game show? Was Tom Kennedy given hell when he hosted The Price is Right? Was any other male host treated like this when they hosted the Price is Right? No. So because YOU THINK the guy is fat and nervous and trying to fill the shoes of a man that no one wanted to see leave, is to prove himself immediately because YOU SAY SO?

Bear in mind, it is no loss if you don't care if he leaves or stays, you don't sign his checks.

Well I'm not used to seeing a Insecure Game Show Host

He is not insecure. That is trying to do a job that Bob Barker did. He knows all eyes are on him and people LIKE YOU ARE GOING TO RAG ON HIM. But frankly, who cares, if the viewership is there, that is all that matters.

For more ragging, wait for the rant for tomorrow-lol

I won't be here. Going out of town all weekend. :lol:

I won't be here. Going out of town all weekend. :lol:


So that means I shouldn't see you online all weekend. And I take it you are a Drew Carey Fan and that's fine but just because we are friends doesn't mean we can't have different opinions. I felt he was a NERVOUS WRECK, you may feel differently and I guess I'm not used to seeing a nervous grown man

I have seen Drew in his shows, interviews, guest appearances, a documentary on his trip to Iraq visiting the troops, etc. and what you are seeing is HIM. The only nervous thing abt him seems to be what to do with his hands at times, but OTHER THAN THAT, that is Drew. If there was something different or strange abt how he behaves or acts, I would notice and so would a lot of other people.

Just like if I commented on a sports figure that I may not see regularly on television, I wouldn't have a reason to comment on that person if I was not familiar with how they behaved. I would only comment on someone I have seen regularly enough.

He is also nervous around contestants

No he is not. I don't know what you see. Have you seen him host his other shows? Probably not. So you can't say because you have no idea.

I watched three eps this week and yes he is nervous around contestants

I didn't ask if you watched TPIR, I asked if you watched his other shows that he hosted? He is the best host for TPIR.

Well I wish he stops asking contestants who spins the wheel and then they get 50 on the first spin and Drew says-"DO YOU WANT TO SPIN AGAIN?

HELL YEAH DREWI ONLY HAVE 50 you moron-lol-lol

Now you are just nitpicking. :crazy: The other day you posted THE OPPOSITE. Don't make me find that post and post it here. ;) :lol: You said why would a contestant want to spin again when they already have 50 cents. Now, you are saying the opposite. What is wrong with you? I keep telling you one thing and you feel the need to just say something negative and whatever that may be, you just post it, regardless if it is wrong.

DON'T WATCH THE DAMN SHOW IF HE IRRITATES YOU THAT MUCH. :lol: Let it go, be happy somewhere else on t.v.

I said that after the first slin the person got 50 and he asked do you want to spin again. I don;t rcall saying anything else

Bottom line, you are nitpicking.

You say he is fat. -what reason does that have for being a great host or anything else in life?

You say he is stiff. - in your eyes maybe. He is not doing comedy, he is hosting a game show. He is no different on Power of 10 or any other gig he hosted.

You say he is a moron for asking contestants whether they want to spin or not - I have seen Bob ask people when they got 45 cents if they wanted to spin again or not. Does that make Bob a moron?

You say he isn't qualified - Yes he is. You don't have the authority on who is qualified for being a game show host. If it was some dumb blonde with no hosting skills, I'd see your point.

You say he is nervous - Anyone would be nervous, whether it is a little or a lot. Drew is filling a special task knowing that millions will watch him and criticize his every move (especially Solomon).

Seems to me all you have to say is hot air without any facts to back up your claims. When you have facts, then speak to me. :lol:

So friends are supposed to like the same things?-lol I like Elisabeth Hasselback and the View and I have never got upset because you think the show stinks. Now all of a sudden since I'm making fun of someone you like you have a problem-lol

I don't expect you to like him, I expect you to back up your comments with facts. You keep saying he isn't qualified to host. According to who? You?

I don't like Elisabeth Hasselback, but I have never said she is not qualified to be on the View. Notice the big difference there Solomon!

I said he doesn't appear to be qualified going by the eps I watched this week but I can be wrong and he can make a turnaround. I knew he would probably be nervous but not this nervous

And again, I am saying you have not seen his other work on television to see that he is being himself. That is Drew. Try watching his other works and you will see. You are judging the man on three episodes????? I hope your boss would judge you and your co-workers with more depth than that. :crazy:

I'm not saying he should be FIRED, i'm expecting a better perforamance by the end of the yeae

So you expect the man to change his way of hosting (the same way he hosted other shows) simply because you don't like it? The man is not going to change for you simply because you want him to. Just like I don't expect you to change your attitude on the boards simply because I want you to. You are who you are and Drew is who he is. He is not any different on any other show he hosts. Why don't you get that? DREW IS BEING DREW, not trying to be Bob Barker. There is nothing Drew should be doing. If Drew tried to be Bob, you'd be b*tching abt that too. :crazy:

It will be aired. You've been told numerous times on this forum that shows are airing out of order due to game scheduling for the first few weeks so that you don't see the same games each day, giving you something else to complain about.

Well they should have done of better job of scheduling the games

Again, this is where your lack of intelligence shows.

They did do a good job of scheduling the games. Each taping, Drew plays the same games in studio so that he has the opportunity to learn them all and get the hang of them, in order to produce a successful show. However, so each day is not repeatative, they mix up the first few weeks of airings so the home viewer doesn't see the same games.

Well I still feel the FIRST SHOW should have been aired and have all the other ones mixed up. I WANT THE FIRST SHOW!!!!!!!!!-lol

Please list your successful television programs that you have produced, so I can compare them to the decisions that are made by the producers of the longest running game show in television history.

It will air, they are juggiling the shows right now because they have to carefully choose when each show airs because you don't want to see plinko or grocery game 3 straight days. The problem was the first 6 shows that drew taped he only knew 8 games in total, which is only essentialy 1 shows worth. They have to spread those shows out or we will see the same games every day

Well they should have done of better job of scheduling the games


They can't dude...they are doing the only thing they can. As I have said many times he only knew 8 games his first week of tapings. It sucks but its reality

Well I still feel the FIRST SHOW should have been aired and have all the other ones mixed up. I WANT THE FIRST SHOW!!!!!!!!!-lol


I kind of agree with you on that one.. The 1st show should have been his 1st show taped.

They still haven't decided yet, I heard that they were talking about airing that show the week of nov 12th.. I will let you all know but I did find out that the 3rd show he ever taped will air this wed!!!

Thanks! I'm looking forward to finding out when the first show will air.
