Drew Carey mocked for ‘aging himself’ with flat joke that ‘nobody laughed at’ before big Price Is Right win

THE Price is Right host Drew Carey has been roasted by fans for an on-stage quip that wasn’t on the money with the audience.

The long-running CBS series shared the recent clip on Instagram on Wednesday before new episodes return next month.

Drew, 66, joined a contestant named Ryan for The Money Game.

The Money Game involves a board of nine two-digit numbers, two of which are the first and last two digits of a car’s price.

The middle digit is revealed at the outset, and the contestant chooses one figure at a time.

Next, Ryan chose “52,” and Drew walked over to the board to find the corresponding panel.

“Car 52, where are you?” Drew asked, referencing the opening theme song from Scooby Doo.

The joke was not met with any laughter, and The Price is Right host nervously smiled.

“No?” he asked the crowd, quietly chuckling with a spaced-out “ha ha” as he found the panel.

“52” was a dollar sign, so it was placed in the player’s cash column.

Ryan still had to pick the panel with the two digits, and Drew awkwardly said, “Let’s try not to stretch it out. I’d like to get it over with.”

Ryan correctly chose “83” as the last two digits of the car’s value, winning the car.

He rushed over to the side of the stage to claim his new whip.

‘THAT WAS ROUGH LOL’

Fans drove the comments section of the Instagram clip, where a few dunked on Drew, made worse by the fact he’s a comedian.

“Drew really aging himself with the ‘car 52 where are you’ comment that nobody laughed at,” one fan wrote, which was the top-liked comment.

“Yeah, that was rough lol,” replied another.

Others enjoyed the segment: “This and the die game is my favorite game to win a car,” another comment read.

COSTLY SCHEDULE CHANGE?

Season 53 of the iconic game show premieres in late September.

Some fans were outraged over the show’s schedule change to its new season.

The Price is Right at Night will return on September 23rd, airing on Monday nights on CBS from 8 to 9 p.m. EST.

However, the night episodes used to air on Wednesdays.

With the switch from Wednesdays to Mondays, some fans are worried that Monday Night Football will affect future episodes.

Football often delays programs when the games go into overtime.

“I don’t know why CBS is moving the night shows to Monday night? They are now competing head-to-head with NFL Monday Night Football,” one fan said on Reddit.

“That’s definitely unfair,” another wrote.

CUT IT OUT!

In a bit of a lower-stakes request, fans are also pining for the show to eliminate the Lucky 7 game.

In a recent Instagram comments section, viewers asked producers to cut the game from the show overall, as it has such a low success rate.

“I’ve been watching the show for 50 plus years and it’s very rare for someone to win on Lucky 7 that’s a hard game but good for her that must mean there’s going to be a show on tonight,” one wrote.

“Hope Lucky Seven or what I really like to called it UNLUCKY SEVEN needs to stop playing more often come Season 53 or it’s going to be the producers’ fault,” a second slammed.

Another viewer also called the show’s Time Is Money segment “awful.”

“Your TIME IS MONEY game is awful. First of all, why do you give the contestant only 10 seconds to grab and place all of the items? It should be 15 seconds MINIMUM,” they wrote.

“Slowing it down by a few seconds would be more fair and it would still be fast paced. Please consider these minor changes before it affects one of your contestants.”

During the game, players are given seven one-dollar bills to start as they begin to predict each digit.

For each incorrect number guessed, the player must give back one dollar bill to Drew.

The contestant must have $1 left after all the digits are revealed to win.

They can then purchase the car for $1, essentially winning the game.

More often than not, the game ends in a loss.
