‘Price Is Right’ Fans Roast Drew Carey After Joke Gone Bad
Drew Carey was a comedian before he replaced Bob Barker as The Price is Right host. He had his own sitcom, and he has great comic timing. However, there are some fans who feel he is showing his age with some of his jokes and references on the popular game show.
Here is what he recently said on the show that has many fans rolling their eyes.
Drew Carey Misses With Joke On Price Is Right
Drew Carey loves to make quips when he is dealing with game show contestants. However, not all of his jokes hit every time. This happened in a recrent episode, and Drew realized immediately that his joke fell on mostly deaf ears.

A contestant named Ryan was playing The Money Game. His job was to guess numbers and figure out which numbers had the halves of the car behind them. He started out choosing “25,” and Drew struggled to find it. When he did, there was half of the car behind it.
This means Drew had four chances to find the other half. Ryan next chose “52.” Drew walked to the board and jokingly said, “Car 52, where are you?” He got mostly silence from the crowd and looked out and smiled. “No?” he asked as he waited for any laughter. He then found the panel and it was a dollar sign.
Ryan then chose “83,” and that had the final car half behind it. He won the car, running to it and celebrating.
Fans Blast Drew Carey For ‘Dated Joke’
The joke is simple. There was a TV show from 1961 that was called Car 54, Where Are You? It starred Fred Gwynne before he gained his most famous role on The Munsters. However, as most fans in attendance showed, this is a show and reference no one remembers anymore.
Drew Carey took it in stride, though. Fans took to the social media post of the moment and made some comments as well:
“Drew really aging himself with the car 52 where are you comment that nobody laughed at.”
“Yeah, that was rough lol.”
It wasn’t Drew Carey’s fault that no one knows classic TV shows. Car 54, Where Are You ran for two seasons and 60 episodes and followed two NYPD officers who drove the titular Patrol Car 54. During its time on the air, it won one Primetime Emmy for directing and was nominated for three other Emmys.
It has aired in syndication on Nick at Nite, Ha!, and Decades.
