Compare The Price is Right. Bob Barker brought
something special to the show, something Drew Carey lacks. While I
never was a regular viewer, I'm now an active avoider of the Drew
Carey versions.

Better yet, look at the tonight show. Carson to Leno = downgrade.
Leno to O"Brian + scraping the bottom.


I'm guessing you're both over 60. :-)


My Dad, who wasn't much of a TV watcher, used to say that Bob Barker was the
last true showman.

I gotta say, I never saw Leno do _anything_ like the time that Carson nailed
Uri Gellar--the twit couldn't show his face on an American stage for decades
after that.
