One overly energetic contestant flipped out -- and wiped out -- on Drew Carey's first day on "The Price is Right."
Carey, who appears to be holding his own since the departure of Bob Barker, appeared in his first episode of the game show today, and one woman just couldn't stay on her feet after she came on down.
The lady, Aura, not only showed off her gymnastic skills by doing a cartwheel onstage, she also fell flat on her ass after winning "It's in the Bag." Looks like they've waxed those floors since Barker took off!
151. Tuned in just to watch the change. I thought Drew did a great job. I think he will bring in a younger demographic. He may not fit the Hollywood mold, but he seems a very genuine, nice person, who is rooting for the contestants to win. I love to hear him laugh. Seems to come from his toes and work it's way out. I can't help but laugh along with him. Good luck Drew. I will keep watching!!

152. I saw The Price is Right for the first time since Drew Carey took over today and , although I thought he was the wrong choice for the job, I think he did a rather good job.
153. GIVE HIM A CHANCE HE IS REALLY A FUNNY GUY, BOB BARKER WAS THERE FOR SO LONG THAT PEOPLE JUST NEED A LITTLE TIME TO GET USED TO DREW. HE'S REALLY GREAT ON THE OTHER SHOW THE POWER OF TEN, HE IS A VERY FUNNY PERSON.
156. Drew did fine and will be fine....people will watch because the show is great and the winners are really the show.....what it is ....is a show where the "Little guy wins and people enjoy watching this.
157. Most people seem to forget that Bob Barker was also once a replacement host. The original Price is Right was hosted by the late and great Bill Cullen. Give Drew a chance!
158. I think they pick these moroons to be contestants because they think that it's entertaining. Personally, I find it annoying and I turn the channel until they're off. Screaming mimi's and idiots don't entertain me.
