[SAD TROMBONE] FOR ALL BUT ONE: The Price Is Right will be broadcasting a web series documenting the show's search for its first male model. Job requirements include "qualities such as their verbal skills, posing, yodeling, and ability to properly showcase a product," and I may have made one of them up.

Had I but world enough, and time, I would replace Drew Carey in that clip with a picture of McKayla Maroney being not impressed.
ReplyDeletelame that the winner is only actual a model for a week.
ReplyDeleteA week? Lame, I agree.
ReplyDeleteA great read from Esquire's Chris Jones on the perfect bid and the reason Drew was stone-faced: he thought the show had been duped.

Broke my arm recently and spent lots of time on the couch. Man, did I grow to enjoy playing along with TPiR. It and The Chew (and painkillers) were like the highlights of my daytime hours.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen The Chew - is Carla Hall as marvelous there as she was on Top Chef?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know, but she's charming here.
