What the hell was up with them Roasting Drew Carey at that time?


I mean he'd only been famous for like 3 years. Did he really deserve a roast? I guess he was pretty much everywhere on tv at the time with his show and Whose line is it anyway, but all the other Roasties are older established (for the most part) stars.

At that point he'd been doing comedy for almost 15 years. He had been on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson twice and was pretty well known. Plus he had a hit show.
