Drew Carey Guest Hosts TLLS For April Fools 2014

[@TheJayLenoFly]

I'm working on the Drew Carey compilation, but I didn't want all of this above to be in it without Craig, so this can be up separately. Enjoy!

[@george5954]

Yay I love this! Thanks for taking my recommendation :) Looking forward to the whole comp

[@TheJayLenoFly]

That's why I'm here. Appreciate your patience!

[@manningbartlett522]

You are the best thing about the Internet. That and Craig's new "Couple Thinkers" show.

[@scubaguy007]

I just want to take a second to thank you for all you’ve done because it really cheers me up to be able to watch these things over and over again.

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

The P.I.R. models were 👀🍭🍬.

[@JlizCasas]

I still rather watch drew Carey host than James Corden

[@finnmacdonald4439]

ikr

[@ctmdarkonestm]

Between Craig and corden, they have a revolving door...Jim Gaffigan did a few days and had all his kids on, Wayne Brady did a few...liked them a lot better than Corden

[@sillygoose635]

nah I like both

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

Corden is fkcuing horrible.

[@kirbyhans5261]

They finally got rid of him. Bring Craig back!

[@michaelbond7652]

Even when he's doing The Late Late Show, Drew can still make Price jokes.

[@ThatStupidSodaJerk]

One of Drew's best qualities is his contagious laughter. It always feels so pure, I can't help but laugh too.

[@ZipplyZane]

It's so nice to hear that theme again. I've been watching so many of your vids instead of old shows that I'd almost forgotten about the theme song.

[@jfaulsti10]

"Dear Drew, are you gonna steal anything from Craig's set to take back to The Price is Right?" "No, we only offer valuable prizes on The Price is Right."

[@MorganNye]

11:01 they’re like wheel of fortune and jeopardy’s audiences.

[@antnyneveruploads]

There's so many niceties of Craig's approach that you immediately notice when it's someone else: how close he sits to the guest, how engaged he is with them, how well he keeps the crowd energized, etc. He didn't seem to have any nervous ticks while hosting (Drew has his hand up the entire time while giving the monologue, and repeatedly smacks the desk during emails). It's no secret Craig used the awkward, dead spaces in between moments to his advantage, often stewing in them purposely with a mischievous smile or sighing as if he had nothing else. Without that approach, Drew has to dance around those lulls and it ends up being... actually kind of awkward. No disrespect to Drew, he did a great job being funny and genuine, but boy it really highlights what a maestro Craig was.

[@Martinspire]

To be fair to Drew, Craig had many years of interviews under his belt by then and had time to master his craft. I'm sure Drew could make a good show too but filling in is just a heavy thing to do. He's nervous too but its not really telling. I do wonder how much influence he had on the monologue. I do think Drew can be a good host though. Probably more interesting than Corden. Also I think the biggest difference is Geoff. The new dude just doesn't have it as the character he's setting up.

[@JP-pq9xi]

Why don't you compare this to Craig's first show, which was also kinda awkward. So many worthless opinions on the internet.

[@kieranzgoku]

Came here after watching The Price Is Right episode that Craig hosted. They we're both great but Craig was truly a natural at hosting Drew's show!

[@davidng2336]

The audience comparison got me good

[@parentsbasement7734]

Joan 60+ still rocking the pvc pants she is the queen of punk/rock my 5 year old lucie wants to be joan jett when she grows up,she loves i love rock and roll she is singing it all the time.i just bought her a electric guitar for her 6th birthday in march

[@skeptale]

I'm not usually a fan of Drew, but I gotta say, this was thoroughly entertaining. Also... holy SHIT he looks good!

[@bjmajor]

He's actually thinner here in 2014 than he is today in 2022!

[@Riley_Mundt]

​@@bjmajorHe's managed to lose his COVID weight again.

[@Abo39FooR]

now i want to watch the episode after that and the show craig hosted.

[@androshyuga6062]

@Biggie B thank you sir.

[@JonesDylan874]

It's still somewhere on YT if you look hard enough. The TPiR episode that Craig hosted.

[@JonesDylan874]

Drew actually did a great job here. But, give me Craig Ferguson any day of the week.

[@imakeitwhynot]

Wow I didn't know this happened, I'ma fan of both, when I was watching this I so wanted to watch The Price is Right at the same time.

[@JonesDylan874]

I think you can still see clips of that April Fools 2014 show on KZbin.

[@stnwrd]

GREAT JOB!! Thank you very much for posting this!!!!!

[@MattChaffe]

I definitely want to see a compilation of the shows that were done after Craig left and before the current dude replaced him

[@MarkKramKarmVI]

Awesome Drew...you helped me gain thirty six hit points👌

[@kevinnelson66]

Rest in peace, Mr. Reiner.

[@ComaAlpha]

You can tell Drew wanted to pick his mind for a lot longer.

[@The1ReviewBoard]

Drew is Actually a natural at Late Night, George is a great sidekick.

[@actownsend7288]

George made my grandmother laugh when he hosted Weakest Link in daytime!!

[@zlinedavid]

George Gray was like a sober Ed McMahon.

[@kevinnelson66]

Johnny Carson actually drank more than Ed McMahon. Carson had a reputation of being a mean drunk.

[@preferreduser6601]

This vid just underlines how much better Craig is at this. Actually, Craig's The Price is Right performance did not convince me much either - he couldn't bring his irony and wit to the show.

[@phantom12321800]

Preferred User they're just different skillsets. Drew really grew into the role of a price is right host where warmth and fun energy are the key. Barker left big shoes of endearing and genuineness.

[@preferreduser6601]

I accept that, you're right.

[@jmatt3796]

Great Job. Thanks for sharing this :)

[@arjanvanraaij8440]

Drew is a fine t.v host and a good interviewer, just ask good questions and let the guest speak.

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

He's way better than that twitt Corden

[@BlueCrystalTear]

I know this is from a decade ago, but I wish Drew got to make jokes like these with/about contestants (but tamer versions, because daytime) on TPIR more often, instead of being forced to rush through each game. It would make that show more fun. You know, like Bob got to do, but with Drew's sense of humor.

[@alexlee6487]

If Drew Carey went into the talk show business he would have kept his talk show the same format like the same theme song, the house band, and even with some changes like the set and segment changes, the format would mostly be the same from it’s debut in the late 80’s early 90’s

[@williamblackmon9136]

I'd really like to see that performance. Great vid.

[@christopherdunbar394]

steve allen was great

[@NERFTommy99]

Aw i really wanted to see joan jetts performance

[@HAM-TV]

Do you happen to have any of the '04 guest hosts? I can't find the Michael Ian Black shows anywhere.

[@jamalselesi182]

R.I.P. Carl Reiner

[@bennyboogenheimer4553]

What a great show, and Carey's Cuties!

[@vitothepizzaguy7475]

You know... Drew wouldn't have been a bad replacement

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

He's light years better than Corden who just makes me cringe

[@TehBellcarl]

Love Drew but holy cow was Craig good at hosting the price is right!

[@DavidBrown-in3oj]

The guy from Cinderella: Tom Keifer.

[@aaronvankints3545]

We love you Drew rev rev!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@m1t2a1]

I heard Mel Brooks tell the same story on Johnny Carson in the 70s, and 80s lol.

[@ClapHurts]

Drew makes a better talk host than a game show host.

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

Better than Corden. He's insufferable.

[@Flyingdingii]

You and @Don Giller doing the work.

[@gabrielbarboza5620]

I miss this show..David Letterman conon obrain craig Ferguson..top 3 late talk shows..

[@TrentPlaysRoblox]

The first time ever that drew forgot to do that spay neuter plug

[@bernlin2000]

31:02 Damn...punk music is so short XD

[@Chronic_Tranquility]

Hey JayLeno Fly.. I have an idea for a video. I'm pretty sure you get this from a lot of viewers, so I don't want to push you. But let me know if you are interested. And as always, I love your work ! Thanks you for being so awesome :)

[@TheJayLenoFly]

I wrote you back on twitter, you can describe the details there. Thanks for taking interest. I welcome suggestions. Thanks urself for being supportive!

[@Ishamv3]

Slim Drew looks wrong.

[@hueynapalm]

I could've sworn he said Colin and Ryan when he was listing off guests. I got so freaking excited... Then it turned to utter disappointment.

[@siramea]

Would this originally have been broadcast over 1 hour? So in the US, normally 40% of an hour-long show is ads/commercials? It must be very annoying to watch TV in real time, or maybe you are used to it and think nothing of it. In Ireland, it's a maximum of 12 mins of ads per hour.

[@sleepy1ce]

Sira Mea things are cut out from the show like the theme song and clips so it would 've been a little longer

[@mavfan1]

LOL, who watches live TV? I download the torrent so I don't have any commercials. Must be so annoying to watch TV in Ireland with 12 minutes of ads per hour!!!!

[@sst710]

It's about the same as Ireland, this clip has been edited like +M Sj said. It's normally between 12-15 mins depending how long the episode runs for.

[@mehamurmurs1686]

Eh despite the editing I’d say a lot of Americans could sit down and watch an hour long show with or without the ads. Unfortunately

[@sirsymbro]

DVR! fast forward

[@josephlawson9950]

I miss whose line is it anyway cast together with drew carey

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

Drew Carey should have a talk show and Corden should be hosting a game show.

[@ronaldoswald1942]

"Pluck your magic twanger frogie."

[@DerylEagle46]

I remember "The Ghoul" on Saturday nights while in college. The movies he showed were not that good but we watched them to see "The Ghoul." I think he got kicked off because he blew up a live frog on one of his shows.

[@DH_Artist]

Dude Drew Carey really lost weight

[@tommydronesmaaddaaah9911]

aaaannnddd Drew ruined all his goodwill with a stupid master***ion joke

[@dcworld1076]

this was such a fucking brilliant idea

[@robertveith6383]

Stop with your major cursing! It is ignorant and needless.

[@054dhantealifsupriyadi6]

11:00 Now i know, now i know.

[@rachels2560]

Imagine getting tickets for a taping, only to have Drew host instead of Craig. I'd be livid. 😂

[@derrickrouse8565]

Can you upload more of drew carey guest hosting on the late late show

[@JonesDylan874]

I think that was the only time.

[@derrickrouse8565]

@@JonesDylan874 no It wasn't he stepped in when craig retired for a couple of episodes before James Corden took over

[@jamesthedragon2344]

[@myway7367]

If drew carey were an ice cream he would taste like clean (but not washed) clothes

[@_harbinjer]

when Drew sounds like Boo

[@BAKINGWITHROSIE]

Drew is hot and sexy in this he great as a talk show host and a game show host to love drew he my favorite comedian of all time...❤❤

[@vokasimid5330]

Should host Oscar

[@isaaclowe8177]

Unpopular opinion here: I think Drew did a better job on TLLS than Craig did on TPIR. They're both outside their comfort zones in terms of scripting and show structure, but Drew's polished act, great audience connection and warm personality expands better into being a talk show host than Craig's dry wit, flawless comedic timing and improvisational mastery does to running a game show.

[@Liusila]

A fine argument!

[@bernlin2000]

Damn...he should have replaced Craig!!

[@ComaAlpha]

Lorain used to have a bar called Ghoulardi's where the Ghoul used to show up and do his shtick. Did plenty of shows with my dad at Ghoulardi's. I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about it.

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

They should replace Corden with Drew Carey.

[@petermeatballs6252]

Too bad drew carey didn't even get a talk show

[@DonnyTrent5533]

Good show but even only halfway in it feels way too scripted to be truly fun

[@nickganzer6545]

go host kathryn hahn

[@ComaAlpha]

Lorain!!!!!!! 440!!!!!!!!!

i forgot how funny is Drew Carey fuck

Stop majorly cursing. It is ignorant and needless.

Did you cut Joan Jett? WTH man..

[@vijabeveritas5990]

Music rights. I was surprised they even showed what they did. With Ferguson clips, it goes straight from the introduction to them sitting at the desk.

[@kevinnelson66]

YT is a little tight on music rights.

at about 20 minutes into this i couldn’t take one more forced cackle laugh... once he got his feet under him in this role he might do great... i do live talk broadcast radio... I have an on line archive of those shows... oddly, the first year isn’t there...

[@kirbyhans5261]

Can't watch this, George is annoying.

I don't like George. Never have, never will.
