I don't know what's hardest to believe: that The Price Is Right is still on; that it looks exactly like it did in the '80s; or that Dr. Michael Bummer (bummer!) is actually a gynecologist.

He was not only a fair and understanding game show host, Bob had the prudence to grab a douche by the arm and push him offstage if need be. And then, out of the kindness of his Read more

The Price Is Drew Carey's Dignity

Oh Bob Barker, why did you have to retire and leave us with Drew Carey and his off-color jokes about situations we would never in a million showcase showdowns want to imagine him in?
