Am I the only one who notices that sounds suspiciously like Lee Harvey Oswald?-- KnowledgeBringsFear ( talk) 00:29, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
I attended a taping of The Price is Right on July 8th, 2009, and was able to ask drew about the dvd's. According to him it may be quite a while until it is released on DVD because of syndication issues with time warner and abc. Since I have no source for this beyond first hand experience I'm adding it here rather than the article page. -- WCarter ( talk) 19:39, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
Would adding this article to a category called "Historical Shark Jumps" be POV, or would it be indeed encyclopedic to the purpose of providing exemplary cases of television shows jumping the shark to someone researching such a thing?
"Jumping the shark" is very POV and very subjective. Just let the numbers and facts tell the story. Azn Clayjar 15:18, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia's bias against Trivia sections is a big load. If the section was renamed "Cultural References," then it becomes perfectly acceptable according to Wikipedia rules. How can the administrators justify that? -- M.Neko ( talk) 07:59, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Thier seems to be no mention of the "Cleavland Rocks" theame ssing in this article. It should probobly be mentioned.
I added references to Cleveland Rocks. -- Broken Arms Gordon 17:26, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
It seems to me that this article is written in a loving way, and not the proper NPOV way. An example is the phrase "He was a welcome addition to the cast." I'm not sure an encyclopedia should be deciding whom is a "welcome addition" to anything. Adding the NPOV boilderplate.
I recall Wanda Sykes as a cast memeber on the show for a brief period, but I honestly had stopped watching at that point. She needs to be included as well, if she was a major cast member if only for a season. -- Broken Arms Gordon 17:28, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
Also Jenica Bergere, who played sharon is not mentioned in this article. If i had sources i would use it. Nonsane ( talk) —Preceding comment was added at 05:03, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Yes I think the Sharon character deserves to be mentioned. She was on the show for 12 episodes according to imdb. Also the character of Chuck the security guard should also be mentioned. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.235.166 ( talk) 23:23, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
This edit changed "Louder" to "Lauder". I known nothing of the topic. Normally, I'd presume something like this was a correction, but the person who did it appears to be a serial vandal. Will someone who knows the topic please have a look? - Jmabel | Talk 14:52, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
I fixed the problem, the correct name of the department store is Winfred-Louder. This is according to the official site of the show. -- Nehrams2020 23:57, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
When was it revealed on the show that Kate was a "South Park Republican"?
". This series was not the same like many other highly-rated, long-running sitcoms that in order to avoid cancellation, beginning in 2001, ABC quickly signed contracts in order to keep the show fresh, but the show went beyond repair and the network wouldn't allow the show to be released from their contracts."
What does this even mean? The grammar is so bad it's all but unintelligible.
I think it's saying the show wasn't like other shows the shows contracts got signed early meaning they didn't need to worry about cancellation? Just my theory

Is there really a need to include references to other TV shows in this section? Surely "However, the show further sank in ratings the following season, unlike many other live sitcoms. Even its series finale's ratings were lower than otherwise would have been expected." would suffice?
The latest edit, ie "However, the show further sank in ratings the following season, unlike many live sitcoms whose series finales were behind, M*A*S*H, Cheers, Married... with Children, Mad About You, Home Improvement, Sex and the City, Frasier, and Friends, whose ratings have dominated. Its series finale had low ratings unlike the many sitcoms that had high ratings before, Everybody Loves Raymond, Will & Grace and The King of Queens, which garnered higher ratings" seems disjointed, doesn't make sense and the references to other programs don't really add anything to the article.-- AussieLegend 09:55, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
How about mentioning that Gus was named during a viewer contest?
I am writing an article about all of the series which are in the same shared reality as this one through spin-offs and crossovers. I could use a little help expanding the article since it is currently extremely dense and a bit jumbled with some sentence structures being extremely repetitive. I would like to be able to put this article into article space soon. Any and all help in writing the article would be appreciated, even a comment or two on the talk page would help. Please give it a read through, also please do not comment here since I do not have all of the series on my watch list. - LA @ 16:36, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Why is there no mention of Drew's bar band in the article? Kouban ( talk) 14:50, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
The following is unsourced information:
While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 11:15, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

What about the incredibly long, special effects-filled sequence where Drew goes into a coma? When was that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.184.121.36 ( talk) 15:54, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
there was a guy with long blond hair, sunglasses, and played guitar named ed who was a recurring character. whys there no mention of him? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.203.189.232 ( talk) 04:36, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
Craig Ferguson was definitely away filming a movie at the time of NeverEnding Store. You can tell because on a few episodes where he is the janitor at NeverEnding Store, his hair is long like it is in I'll Be There, which he was filming at the time. 76.1.48.210 ( talk) 02:06, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
I'm requesting a semiprotect on this article due to persistent recurring vandalism to Mr. Wick's part of the Characters section. Seriously, I don't get why people keep doing this, but every time I come back to the page, what do I see? Vandalism. And it's only targeted at Mr. Wick. I don't know for sure, but because it's only targeting him and because of the content (saying Mr. Wick is "bisexual" and "has a cock second in length only to Drew Pickles") I think it looks like Barney Bunch-type vandalism. There have also been racist edits made that replaced his profile with ebonics ( here is where it's worst). Today I come on here and minutes before, someone has replaced his biography with Fall Out Boy lyrics. Seriously? MotherFerginPrincess ( talk) 15:02, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
I recently noticed Buzz Beer popping up at the LCBO, and was interested to see that there exists a beer made from Hemp! So I went to good ol' Wikipedia to read more, and was diappointed to see that Buzz Beer is a redirect to The Drew Carey Show. Despite the fact that (the real) Buzz Beer is not actually a caffeinated beer as it is in The Drew Carey Show, it is no longer a fictional brand name. I'd recommend creating a stub for the real Buzz Beer with a bit of its history, if anyone has the know-how to do so. Thanks. 99.236.125.43 ( talk) 06:13, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
That is correct. The beer has been around for close to a decade (could be more, could be less). I just bought a 2-4 of it. Here's the info straight from the horse's mouth: http://www.coolbeer.com/beers.html BUZZ BEER Millennium Buzz Beer is a hemp-based red lager made with the finest B.C. hemp, dark roasted Alberta malt and choice German hops. It’s cold-filtered with no preservatives or additives. This healthy mix of pure, wholesome ingredients – plus the natural goodness of hemp – accounts for its singularly clean, smooth refreshing taste. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.248.134.114 ( talk) 21:53, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
I created a separate page.. I'll see if I can whip up an image as well (I have a setup for photographing small objects for sale on an auction site), but somebody might wish to include a link to this article in case people were researching the fictional beer from the show. —Preceding unsigned comment added by FiReSTaRT ( talk • contribs) 14:47, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
Drew was dating the really hot blonde woman for a while. For some reason writers decided to change the storyline and had the character become really fat (via a fat suit). As Drew and her are about to make a sex tape, she suddenly becomes very self-concious about her weight, freaks out, and breaks up with Drew. Piss poorly-written episode/storyline, but you already knew that. She returns a season or two later, magically thin again. None of this isn't mentioned in the article, though. -- 98.232.188.173 ( talk) 04:59, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
This show aired on ABC for its entire run, correct? If so, it could not have competed again MNF, as MNF aired on ABC as well (until 2005). But I am not sure if it did air on ABC for its entire run (though I've seen no indication it aired elsewhere), so I didn't want to go ahead and edit it myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.235.44.68 ( talk) 18:05, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
This page contains numerous errors (however small they may be). I am currently part way through Season 9, and once i have finished it i will be checking through the whole article for incorrect information. Until then, i will attempt to correct mistakes in describing the earlier seasons. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheMovieManiac ( talk • contribs) 14:59, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
The article describes the themes of many shows, but fails to describe one of the most amazing sequences in television history, the amazing ballet consisting of first one character walking through the workplace set in a strange way, then again over and over, each time with one additional character added to the "ballet". The sequence is done using a special effect in which each time through, each character's unique weird walk interleaves with all of the other characters' previous weird walks to make a very complex completed ballet by the last walkthrough.
The result is strange, intriguing, and very entertaining at the same time, and I believe is quite unique in all of television. This sequence easily deserves to be described in the article. David Spector ( talk) 23:05, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
