Do you like the new Price is Right show with Drew Kerry being the host? It just isn't the same for me. He's okay but he doesn't get very expressive. I preferred Bob Barker any day. But I guess it's a matter of getting used to Drew. After all, Bob Barker was on it for so many years, it was his show. I like Drew in all his other shows, especially the new one, The Power of Ten. Also his own comedy show The Drew Kerry show, How come I can't remeber how to spell Kerry. I know this is the wrong spelling but I seem to have one of those brain blocks.

Being from the UK I don't get to see your edition of The Price is Right, but I do occasionally watch it on SKy television on Challenge where we have Bruce Forsyth as the main host of the show. I like him because he is a very funny man! Some of the prizes also make me laugh because they so ridiculously expensive and horrible and tacky too!

Well, I'm fine with the Drew Carey actually, he's darn right funny....but then again, you're right...Bob Barker is great for the show... Its Drew Carey...spelled with a C, not with a K...

Personally I don't think the show is near as good as it used to be. He comes off as cold to me and the show just isn't exciting. I think he may be trying too hard??

I think he's doing pretty well on the price of right. No one will ever fill bob barkers shoes. Bob barker IS the price is right. I liked power of 10 too. drew would get so excited with the contestants when they won. I think he's a good comedian. Its Carey by the way ;)

I don't watch The Price Is Right as often as I used to, even when Bob Barker was the host. Once Drew Carey took over I had to force myself to watch it the first few times as it was a little hard for me to watch it with him hosting it. It's not that I don't like Drew Carey (I enjoyed him on "The Drew Carey Show"), it's just Bob Barker was the original host of the show. I think it would be hard for me to get used to anyone hosting it after Bob Barker, though I'm starting to get used to Drew Carey hosting it. It'll never be the same the same though. To me Bob Barker made each show filled with excitement, while Drew doesn't have the same zest (I think that's the word I'm looking for :P). But that's just how I feel. :)

Once Bob Barker retired from Price is Right it also should of gone off the air as well . For Bob Barker can never be replaced PERIOD !

Hi chrislotz, Anyone taking over from Bob Barker has big shoes to fill. It is going to take awhile for people to get use to Drew's style. I expect he will do fine but it will never be the same for me. Blessings.

Hi:) No i do not like it that much anymore due to the fact that Drew has a "dry" humour about him.He thinks hes funny sometimes when hes not and there is something about him in my head when i see him on there that he shouldnt be there for some reason and should stick with his show that he has going on.I miss Bob Barker,he had a nice face with a nice smile,whitty and didnt stand there like he had a poker stick stuck up his butt like Drew,haha.Drew is too dry for me that i have to change the channel now for my daughters cartoons,i enjoy them more now than price is right.:( Peanutjar:)

I love drew carry but he just isnt doing it for price is right he was better on the power of 10 (i think thats the one where the % of what america thinks) he was real good ont that game show but htis show hes totally bombing and they should put someone else on there that will put more energy into it. i only watched it once since drew carry has been host

I don't too much care for it now. Like you said I may just have to get used to Drew Kerry being the host. No one will ever be able to replace Bob Barker so I guess I will have to give the new host a fair chance. I like Drew Kerry on other shows also but too me he's just not a game show host. Great discussion. Have a great day.

I watched it once and was disappointed. Not that Drew was there, but that he wasn't himself. We all know that he could never fill Bob's shoes, but he certainly could have brought his own flash and charm to the show by being himself. He seem stiff and strained on The Price is Right. Maybe time will make it better, I am sure it is stressful trying to take over a show that has been Bob Barkers for ages now...

I dont care for Drew. I don't enjoy or want to watch Price is Right anymore. I used to really enjoy it. I've actually visited the set once.
