Since I'm unemployed these days, I get to spend a lot of time with my TV. I usually spend my mornings engaged with The Price Is Right, which is a little bit annoying considering all of the advertisments during the show for a career college that OMNI 2 shows that I'll never attend.
I have to say that I misss Bob Barker a little bit. No more sexual harrassment suits. No charm and charisma. New host Drew Carey is a bit of a wet towel compared to Barker. He certainly lacks emotion, and I don't really like it when he gets the constestants to go Alacazam and ask them to say hi to their friends and family on the Showcase Showdown part of the show. It's a little cheesy.
What irks me is this clip of Drew Carey not getting excited during the Showcase section when a contestant got a price right on the nose. C'mon. The guy bid the exact price. Show some enthusiasm. This was probably one of the greatest moments in game show history.
Still, I'll keep watching Price. I've got nothing better to do with my time, for one. It's become a bit of a ritual for me. God knows what will happen if I ever get a real job again and have to go to work at that time just like any regular Joe.
