I'm not even saying this is a joke but people talk about the feeling of the Holy Spirit going through you and your body that something's changed in your life forever. Being called over to the couch on the "Johnny Carson Show" was the closest I came to that. I looked at game show hosting as the bottom of the totem pole, one step away from infomercials.

I never watched them myself. However, it's been a lot of fun. We try out new things and keep a lot of the classic elements people remember.

I enjoy getting to know new people and seeing them win. Libertarians are essentially what the Republicans were 30 years ago. They would all fit more under the Libertarian label than the modern day Republican label. One day, I was running around playing with my son Connor when afterwards I was sweating, tired and out of breath.

I was embarrassed that something as enjoyable as playing with my son was so tough for me to do. Immediately, I started an extensive diet and exercise plan. It completely changed my life and helped cure my Type-2 diabetes. But the one that really got him was a bit about eating a chili dog at Denny's, and having all the cholesterol march right down to my heart, telling the lettuce to get the hell out of the way.

I think he was holding onto his desk for that one. I didn't start making money until I was in my thirties doing stand-up. I really don't take money for granted. The audience loved Carey, and his performance earned the respect of host Johnny Carson. After multiple cable specials and a few small film and television roles, ABC gave Carey his shot at an eponymous sitcom.

He was cast as the average, amiable, assistant director of personnel at a department store in Cleveland, Ohio. Filled with everyman humor, a likable ensemble cast, and several forays into musical theater, The Drew Carey Show debuted in By its second season, it was a ratings favorite. The book gave the public a glimpse of Carey's hard-partying, adult-entertainment-enjoying side. Carey's already-adoring public embraced the flaws. The book became a New York Times best-seller list mainstay and helped establish Carey's bad-boy persona.

Carey took members of this talented collective on the road in , billing the group as "The Improv All Stars. He didn't stray far from the small screen, however. In recent years, Carey has become even more outspoken in his Libertarian views. An active supporter of personal freedoms, including gun rights and the legalization of medical marijuana, Carey has starred in multiple videos for the Reason Foundation, a like-minded non-profit group. In he proposed to his girlfriend, culinary-school graduate Nicole Jaracz.

Power of 10 ended its run on January 23, After taping the pilot episode for Power of 10 , Carey was then contacted by CBS, in talks of possibly replacing year retiring veteran Bob Barker on The Price is Right , Drew originally said no the opportunity.

But after thinking it over, Drew was approached by CBS execs again and decided to give it a shot as he announced it on Late Show with David Letterman that he would succeed Barker as host of the program beginning in the fall of Before it was announced that Drew would become the new host of The Price is Right , several candidates were lined up for the job with a large number of them taping auditions.

Carey taped his second episode of The Price is Right on August 15 and his second week of shows aired nationally on the week of November , originally scheduled to air on November 19, K Aired out-of-order on December 11 , November 20, K Aired out-of-order on October 25 , November 21 K Aired out-of-order on October 22 , November 22, K Aired out-of-order on October 19 , November 23 K Aired out-of-order on October 26 respectively.

I don't compare myself to anybody It's only about what you're doing and supposed to do, and I feel like I'm supposed to be doing this. As Drew entered his second year as host of The Price is Right Season 37, , he wanted to add his own special touch to the show.

He began to write some showcase sketches which he called "Drewcases" as these were reportedly based upon some of the comedy sketches seen on his comedy shows. But unfortunately for Drew, this change did not sit well with the fans with the biggest reasoning being that the show's then-current announcer Rich Fields was the subject on the majority of these "Drewcases" to which some fans have stated that it made Fields look like either a complete jerk or a joke while others found them to be disrespectful towards him some fans also believe that Carey played a part in some of Price's longtime showcase skits and themes being dropped from the show altogether by and as a result of this, the "Drewcases" were quickly dropped.

A episode airing on Halloween saw the case portraying members of a superhero league entitled The Prize League; Drew portrayed the head of the league, Captain Giveaway. He dared five players from both the U. Men's and Women's National Teams to compete against him. In , he starred alongside fellow comedienne and Seinfeld star Julia Louis-Dreyfus in a made-for-TV musical remake of the Disney animated classic Pinocchio titled Geppetto , playing the title character the lonely toymaker who desperately wanted to become a father to Louis-Dreyfus' role of the Blue Fairy.

Drew's role in the film later became a recurring butt of jokes on his series Whose Line is it Anyway? In April , his 3rd year hosting Price Carey began hosting a new primetime improv show, called Drew Carey's Improv-A-Ganza which reunited him with Rich Fields as the announcer after being dumped from Price in The show took on the premise of Whose Line?

Drew Carey's Improv-A-Ganza was axed after one season due to poor ratings and the program quickly disappeared from the Game Show Network lineup and has not been seen in reruns ever since. Drew also competed in the season of ABC's Dancing With the Stars , he and his professional dancing partner, Cheryl Burke who later appeared as a guest model on Price , were eliminated during Week 6, ending the competition in 8th place.
