Okay, let's face it: some of use like Drew and others just don't. I, for one, do like him as the host of The Price Is Right! Of course, most, if not all of us, grew up with Bob Barker hosting and he made it as a legend on that show and I fully agree that no one could ever replace him in the sense that no one is and exact duplicate of Bob. Drew Carey is his own person and thus will bring his own views to the show. Therefore, he will never be anything like Bob Barker. And let's face it, when a new and younger person takes over an area like how Drew did with Price, it's going to take time for change. Sure, Drew was awkward at first ( who wouldn't be? ) but, I think after a bit he found his niche and turned out to be a great host. Another comparison people are making here is The Price Is Right! to the Drew Carey Show. Here's just one little snip: both shows are two completely genres of entertainment. Price is a game show and The Drew Carey Show was a sitcom. Both shows called for different aspects of show business: Price requires a down to earth and quirky host while The Carey Show was all acting. Those comparisons are an unjust analogy. I think Drew is a fresh new face that was nedded. He hugs the contestants, chats, cracks a joke or two, whatever. Bob was very stoic and marble-like in the sense he didn't seem to like that people would practically tackle him if they just won a new car or something. That is just my opinion, anyway.
