Drew Carey Show question
 

i just watched my first episode of Drew Carey this season, and what happened to Kate (Christa Miller)? did she get written outta the show? that sucks if she did. thanks

Kate? isn't that the female character still in there that went out with drew and the other friend?

I remember drew's first love interest was written off after some time and some stories.

Kate got married to someone else. Drew couldn't handle seeing her again with someone else.

I don't know if it is a permanent thing or not.

Christa Miller is now on another show, created by her husband. The show is called "Scrubs" on NBC on Thursday nights behind Friends. She plays Jordan, Dr. Cox's ex-wife who on the hospital board.

Cynthia Wattros (formerly of "Titus") has been written in as her replacement. A pretty decent "trade-in" if you ask me.

Good gawd she gives me the hot...

though Kate on one hand was not bad on the eyes. I recall one rocky horror episode ;) ;)

Kate (Christa Miller) is not completely done. She is still in another one or two episodes before she is completely gone from the Drew Carey Show. Anyone else not happy with the direction that the show has taken so far this year? :(

Both my wife and I agreed that Ms. Wattros is a urine-poor replacement for Kate. But I will give the character a little more time to fit in.

At least Drew (or Oswald & Lewis for that matter) hasn't adopted a kid, yet. I'm sure it's coming.

Step 1: Have a successful show.

Step 2: As ratings begin to dip, come up with creative way to "tinker" with the formula. Tinkering lifts ratings!

Step 3: Shift the show around on your schedule. Mystery timeslots always boosts ratings!

Step 4: As people start to abandon ship, replace them with characters that are as alike as possible, except that they have no chemistry with the current cast. Freshness raises ratings!

Step 5: Add a kid. Youth always increases ratings!

Step 6: Cancel the show.

We actually stopped watching when the whole "drew/kate" marriage/not wanting a baby thing happened. Those two married would have been a good thing, or just staying apart would have been good, but something about the way it went down was irritating.

Didn't Wattros have bigger hooters on "Titus" a few years ago?

Wow, you lasted a lot longer than I did. I used to really, really like that show, but like most sitcoms, it seemed to run out of steam.

The Drew Carey show feels more like "What My Line?" nowadays.

Yeah - at the beginning of last season of Titus. That was after she gave birth.

This show has been going steadily downhill for a while now. It started when Carey started Who's Line Is It Anyway and rapidly declined from there. The show is old and more "stunt" oriented that anything in TV history. Unfortunately, everything they do is stale and done before they do it... (((sigh))). The industry joke is that this show should have been axed several seasons back and keeps coming back for more.

BTW - they DID add a baby. Mimi had one recently and Drew died and came back as the baby... ugh - I'm gonna hurl that's so bad!

Christa Miller is the rat leaving the sinking ship - she's MUCH better served on SCRUBS. :thumbsup: It is a great show.

oh and the whole Drew marrying Mr. Wick :rolleyes:
that was....well.....gay!

i stopped watching drew when he and kate got together. that whole thing was just plain stupid. i thought her and oswald made sense, but not with drew.

i like her better on scrubs. she's got an evil streak :)
