Drew Carey never stops ‘The Price Is Right’

Drew Carey takes over as host of “The Price Is Right” and hopes he’s there for life.

“I’m not going anywhere,” he told “Entertainment Tonight” about the job he took over from longtime host Bob Barker in 2007.

“I think Bob made a mistake by retiring. I will not make the same mistake. As long as my heart is beating and they want me to be on the show, I think I’ll do ‘The Price is Right.’ I love it,” added Carey. “I think I was made for it.”

Carey had great things to say about Barker, who died in 2023 from Alzheimer’s disease.

“He’s very good at it,” Carey said. “He’s very good at connecting with people and making them relax and be themselves. You notice his behavior and attitude. He never seemed stressed.”

He was also asked if he had any game show advice for Ryan Seacrest, who will host “Wheel of Fortune.”

“Do I have any advice for billionaire Ryan Seacrest? Who hosts everything all the time? No,” he said. “Bro, I think you understand. I think you know what to do. I think you know how to host something. Don’t worry about it. You’ll be fine.”
