Drew Carey has mastered the art of forgiveness. The funnyman, 61, chatted it up with the hosting cast of “The Talk” on Wednesday, in an interview that aired on Friday, and admitted that as much as he has forgiven Gareth Pursehouse, the man who is charged with murdering his ex-fiancée Amie Harwick, the toll her murder has had on him has been difficult to understand. “After Amie’s murder, I took a week off. Really, I couldn’t function,” Carey said, adding that upon his return to the show for “Kids Week,” he had an opportunity to speak with high school students...

HOLLYWOOD, CA—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was pumped to attend a taping of The Price Is Right in Hollywood this week. The special guest introduced herself as a U.S. representative and rising star of the Democratic Party. Things got interesting when the game began and every time it was her turn to estimate the price of an item her answer was "free." Items included a set of Italian leather handbags, an all expenses paid trip to the Bahamas, and a brand new 2019 BMW 330i, at all of which Ocasio-Cortez shouted, "FREE!" When host Drew Carey asked if Ocasio-Cortez understood the game's...

Drew Carey's 11-year-old son may be in big trouble. Connor Carey is reportedly the young protester in a Fox News video of an inauguration rally where protesters were seen burning signs. The 11-year-old, who identifies himself as Connor, told Fox News' Griff Jenkins he "kind of started this fire" because "I felt like it and because I'm just saying 'screw our president.'" TMZ reported the child in the video is Drew Carey's son. A rep for the TV star could not immediately verify Carey's son is the child in the video, but a picture of the comedian with his son...

Who doesn't want to know what Bob Barker thinks on Al Jazeera?

Have you always wanted to show off flashy cars and cozy new living room sets on national television? "The Price is Right" may be famous for Bob Barker (and now Drew Carey)'s lovely ladies, but now "The Price is Right" is holding a contest to find its first male model. In the game show's nearly 40-year history, the prizes have almost always been displayed by female models, but now one guy will get to try out the gig for a week on the CBS show, which is currently hosted by Drew Carey. CBS has announced that the search for a...

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13, 2008 – Comedian and former Marine Drew Carey will welcome servicemembers to the stage of ”The Price is Right” during a prime-time airing of a special episode dedicated to the troops. “I think that if they said it was a very special show, it’s because it’s very high-energy. The contestants were really great,” said Stan Blits, the show’s co-producer. “The military guys were just the best, and we had such a fun time taping it with them. “They were all enthusiastic, and it was just really a great honor to have them there,” he added. “They ended...

NEW YORK - Genial comic Drew Carey was tapped Monday to replace silver-haired legend Bob Barker on the CBS daytime game show "The Price is Right." Carey confirmed the deal during a taping of the "Late Show" with David Letterman. The selection attracted more attention than usual for a daytime show because of the prospect of replacing Barker, 83. Barker retired after 35 years in the job last month following taping of his 6,586th episode. The opening attracted widespread interest, including from comic Rosie O'Donnell after she left "The View." Carey, 49, spent a decade on his own ABC sitcom...

Drew Carey, come on down! The comedian will replace Bob Barker as the new host of The Price Is Right. The Cleveland native confirmed his new gig as the host of the CBS game show during a taping of the The Late Show with David Letterman, which is set to air Monday. Barker retired last month after 35 years of hosting the daytime sensation, drawing a slew of replacement contenders including Rosie O'Donnell, Ian Ziering, George Hamilton and Mario Lopez. Carey, who will also be host of a new CBS prime-time game show, The Power of 10, told Letterman that...

Despite earlier reports that Rosie O’Donnell declined the opportunity to host the Price Is Right because she didn’t want to uproot her family from New York City to L.A., the truth is that CBS turned her down. “They thought I was too controversial to host the game show,” O’Donnell said on her R Family Vacations cruise from New York to the Bahamas. “I just wanted to ‘gay it up.’” So what did O’Donnell propose? For starters, she wanted to get rid of Barker’s beauties in favor of a chorus line of Broadway hunks, confetti, musical bumpers and a much-needed set...

A leitmotif of the banter of "Morning Joe" on MSNBC is the eponymous Joe Scarborough's teasing of newsreader-cum-co-host Mika Brzezinski over her fancy upbringing as the daughter of former Carter NSA Zbigniew Brzezinski. Defending herself against the elitist charge this morning, Mika twice referred to herself as having grown up among "Polish hillbillies." But when it came to commenting on popular culture, Brzezinski condescended to both Rosie O'Donnell and average Americans in a way worthy of the most high-brow of snobs. At 6:57 am EDT, Scarborough made reference to retiring game show host Bob Barker's recommendation for his replacement. MSNBC...
