The Drew Carey Show: Panama By Van Halen

[@bcdside]

Hey, it's 8:05 on a Wednesday evening, and that was "Panama," by Van Halen. Earlier we heard "Panama" by Van Halen. Starting off the set this evening with "Panama" by Van Halen. A little later we're going to hear "Panama" by Van Halen. And right now, a special dedication from Mimi to Drew, with a message, "Hit the road, Jack!" - it's "Panama" by Van Halen.

[@Morgil27]

To this day, every time I hear this song, I think of this scene.

[@Jaren929]

And I thought it came from Gran Turismo 4

[@jwr2904]

​@@Jaren929bro...

[@FozzyFiend]

Goddamn. Just came here to write this. Haha

[@timothyfloogle]

Same same dude same

[@dfaircloth30]

Me to🤣🤣

[@Eternaldarkness3166]

If any show deserved a reunion show, it's this one..

[@NimbusHex]

I seriously would settle for a way to watch the existing episodes without watching some obscure channel at 2AM.

[@mzxrules]

if they did a reunion show it'd just turn into another episode of Who's Line Is It Anyway

[@NewAwakeningShifts]

Eternaldarkness3166 the most you got was blast from the cast on ABC.

[@PlatypusPlessisLips]

And none of the main cast have died

[@Morgil27]

Right now, our satellite radio receiver at work is busted and keeps looping the same four songs over and over and over again. One of those songs... is Panama by Van Halen!

[@evandylan]

Great now I’m gonna think this too lol 😎

[@lighttakesthetree]

Best sight gag ever, "Beer?" "Pardon?"

[@Mrgop]

Years later and still one of the best written shows on TV. A great ensemble cast!

[@Dalegribbleexperience]

Definitely needed this today. RIP EVH.

[@Deezle_Gaming]

Still to this day, I hear Panama and I think of this episode.

[@haydendraycott7897]

Van Halen is fucking awesome and Panama is a FANTASTIC song! I could listen to it for days and not bat an eyelash :

[@sharonzamarka3503]

Bill Day hey I'm with you. if someone wants to evict me they would hafta pick something i didn't love!!

[@inusberard5848]

As I have said many times. Play a song you love for 72 hours straight at a volume that you cause you to go deaf with bright lights that could blind you an you'd probably go stark raving mad. The US military did it t Noriega. I'm surprised Drew was able to stand it.

[@lighttakesthetree]

I should have said, best -- and most literate -- sight gag ever! As written: "Beer?" "Pardon?"

[@tanukiman3855]

My God! Shirley Jones has been gorgeous for her entire life!

[@KevinWillson-nf3gh]

Actually, all the badass music this show used is the reason its not streaming legally anywhere

[@kellyrose53]

Hey all seasons are on Pluto TV for free now, but any scene with licensed music is either removed or dubbed over with some royalty free junk

[@Mexicanadiense79]

Man, I thought this would include the bit when they stop playing the song and Oswald complains that it was just getting to the best part:)

[@sharonzamarka3503]

Mexicanadiense79 exactly!! when he says (unclear of the lyrics) "what's that chomping sound?" i almost wet myself--fucking hilarious!!!😂😂✌💜

[@sharonzamarka3503]

Mexicanadiense79 my bad, it's Lewis that says it!

[@A_Lion_In_The_Sun]

"I still can't make out some of the lyrics, is it 'chompy, what's that sound?'"

[@sharonzamarka3503]

i laugh til i cry every time i see this episode. when i hear "panama"; same thing. van halen/drew carey--love u both!!

[@jasminnemcdonald94A]

Who doesn't like Van Halen? Not me. I love Van Halen.

[@inusberard5848]

Yeah, but hearing the same song, played at a volume that could eventually render one deaf, for three days straight would cause even the most steely nerves person to go a little squirrelly.

[@JoshyHendoMan]

"Hit the road jack...its Panama by Van Halen" is still one of my favorite lines in this show

[@armin88213]

Thanks for the upload. Anytime I hear Van Halen it reminds me of this.

[@SirPaladin]

RIP Eddie Van Halen. :(

[@pschroeter1]

I love this bit and I love this song. I just remember that later talking about this and says something like, you know what song I like? PANAMA! The way he says Panama was hilarious.

[@RumcajsRozbojnik88]

The moment on 1:45, with Drew's face and the riff is just perfect :P You can see, that he wants to murder Oswald with his stare.

[@TheAdamantia1]

The Drew Carry Challenge.... Listen to "Panama" by Van Halen... over and over and over.

[@smithallan316]

I can... that is my favorite song

[@timothyfloogle]

Following 21 plays of whats new pussycat with 1 play after the first 7 of its not unusual just to break up the monotony

[@licksnkicks1166]

I miss this show terribly!

[@LoneWolf-qv8lx]

RIP EVH!

[@SchmonTube]

RIP EVH 😢🎸

[@matthewstechel2037]

This might be one of my favorite moments of the entire series quite honestly! The only thing is you cut the video right before Ryan Stiles asks "I still don't get one thing--At the beginning of the song is he asking "what's that chomping sound???" "I don't know, why don't you ask her to play it again for you?"

[@matthewstechel2037]

God i should've scrolled down--I love that like 8 other people said the same damn thing I did!!!!!

[@bigbiscuit2245]

I remember this episode, they kept blasting PANAMA!! LMAO

[@danielrosado1181]

RIP Eddie

[@MarcKnight]

RIP Ed :(

[@davekirst7511]

Underrated show

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Underrated by whom? It got decent reviews and ratings for several years, which ranks it way above the dozens of other shows that failed during its run.

[@doommetaldarryl6689]

Man, with that track listing, I Would Never Leave

[@xanderlowe1543]

I know it's called "the Drew Carey Show," but damn does Kathy Kinney steal every scene.

[@jtzor5922]

PANAMA BY VAN HALEN! Rock In Peace Edward "Eddie" Lodewijk Van Halen.

[@scottythegreat1]

RIP Eddie Van Halen

[@johnwestcott5612]

You'd think she might try bombarding him with a bad song.

[@inusberard5848]

Ever hear a song played at a loud volume and often that it makes you go a little crazy? It's like how my sister, for a span of nearly a month, decided at 7 am to watch the Sound of Music. You have no idea what torture is when you wake up every morning to The Hills Are Alive.

[@raysample318]

+Inus Berard l feel sad for you

[@inusberard5848]

+Torray Sample Glad someone does

[@justincochran9093]

Mimi playing Panama is a subtle reference to when the US military forced Manuel Noriega to surrender after surrounding his house and playing rock music for days on end. So not only is she emulating US military tactics, the choice of song is a reference to what happened that day in Panama City.

[@SoulSoundMuisc]

Drew: "Sorry, I still can't hear you with these earplugs in." Louis: "WHAT?!" Drew: "TAKE OUT YOUR EARPLUGS!" Louis: "WHAT EARPLUGS?"

[@inusberard5848]

I was thinking EXACTLY that. Though Drew, unlike Noriega, didn't let himself be chased away.

[@josephhickman4528]

hes a marine,semper fi, noriega was a pussy!!!!

[@robertcarldecker]

1:52 is hilarious!

[@penguinsfan251]

The late Shirley Jones played Drew Carey's mom... Jones was from Smithton, PA...home of Stoney's Beer and less than an hour from Pittsburgh. The iconic intro with Five O'Clock World, well, that was done by the Vogues, who were from Turtle Creek, PA, near Pittsburgh.

[@Asukenick]

She's still alive and she played his girlfriend.

[@robertcarldecker]

Marion Ross played Drew’s mother.

[@Asukenick]

@@robertcarldecker Whose also still alive.

[@timothyfloogle]

I'm never lending mimi another cd ever again

[@AbigailBGnath]

This is how our military drove Noriega out. 😀

[@rickelder782]

In Panama LOL...Wasnt it Hold Your Head Up they played most? lol

[@iamvonimmel]

Poor Rodney Argent..

[@KatraPlessure]

How is that torture? panama jacks me up. Greatest Eddie Van Halen song everrrrrrrr!

[@Bolt_theG35]

Wasn’t it because of the writers strike that caused this show to be canceled? Or am I thinking of something else? Either way, I loved this show and the writing and cast was awesome! Wish it stayed on longer.

[@Driven2Beers]

I still don't understand some of the lyrics... is it "What's that chomping sound"???

[@sharonzamarka3503]

Driven2Beers omg that's the funniest part of that whole hilarious episode & my phone cuts out before that--still trying to get the whole thing but hey, right on for your funny ass post!!!✌😂💜

[@Driven2Beers]

Sharon Zamarka The fact that Ryan Stiles said it makes it even funnier. Thanks for the reply!

[@sharonzamarka3503]

Driven2Beers gadzooks dude--your "tag" is funny as hell, too!! I'm a freak for the '80's & love the Police (though not as much as Van Halen!!) Thanx for the double laughs!!!😂✌👍💜

[@sharonzamarka3503]

Hey Driven2Beers have you found the whole episode yet? If you do PLEASE let me know & i will do likewise!!!

[@Driven2Beers]

No, unfortunately I haven't found it yet. As for Van Halen, yeah I'm a big fan of their first 3 albums. But when it turned in to "Van Hagar" I completely lost interest. However, my favorite band is Rush. Been a Rush nerd for about 35 years now... almost as long as being a Tolkien and Star Wars nerd. I wave my nerd banner high in hand! :-)

[@HAPPYPANDA53]

This is so the torture I want to put my noisey asshole neighbors upstairs through haha.

[@KKAkuoku]

Is it me, or does Panama sound even better with the higher pitch?

[@nzou123456789]

The Best !!!!!!!!!! VH YAAAAAAAA

[@Briansgate]

I don't see what the problem is. I constantly listen to Panama like this anyway

[@christinazeitman]

I actually considered doing this to my drunk ass neighbor who decided to come to my house at 1am asking for a phone charger…..like normal people with a job I was asleep.

[@NFStamper]

[@sharonzamarka3503]

[@Nizzle5150]

[@crysjumar1]

[@twistedmofo_22]

Pardon?

[@blbean]

The best part that was cut off from this one -- kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJysf6aDiseYesU

[@Name-nw9uj]

bro got the noriega treatment

[@davidenoch818]

mimi calling drew a pig is so ironic

[@Pat4ever.]

That was from the board, didn’t you hear

[@psychoticentertainment34]

I wouldn’t be mad at al for repeatedly hearing Van Halen; NOT AT ALL!!!

[@AndyStewart67]

Wouldn't bother me :)

[@inusberard5848]

Well, I'm sure it wouldn't at first, but being subjected to the same song on concert level volume and bright lights disrupting sleep for days on end could make anyone squirrelly

[@psychoticentertainment34]

Me neither

[@SoulSoundMuisc]

@@inusberard5848 pfft. Earplugs and shades, man. Dump some sand in the living room, set up a lawn chair and just bask with a cold one and work on your tan.
