We're up to part six now, where the Dob grinds through the audition process for candidates to succeed Bob Barker. Bottom line is that Dob intensely dislikes Drew Carey - which is no secret in the game show world - and dumps on him as some kind of unqualified party boy. "Strippers and a wild party life"...which doesn't seem so bad to me, come to think about it. Dob also praises many of the other candidates to the skies.
In particular, Dob likes Mark Walberg and - are you ready? - George Hamilton. Doesn't matter that Dob himself admits Hamilton was absurdly incompetent. At least he wasn't Drew Carey. Dob also says that CBS didn't think Walberg was handsome enough. I dunno, he's a lot more handsome than me, but that's really faint praise.
Anyway, enjoy the interview but beware of Dob's anti-Drew animus, which at least is not hidden.
