Drew Carey: Series
built 217 days ago
Looks like comedian Drew Carey takes the comfort of his houseguests very seriously. A Lowdown spy who recently visited Carey's Hollywood Hills home discovered a large, windowless chamber with padded walls. It's apparently nicknamed the "make-out room" and is filled with candles, blankets, pillows and "a bunch of mattresses on the floor."

Drew Carey Show was significantly different from the rest of the series. Drew and Mimi worked at Winfield-Louder under Mr. Bell, who existed only as a voice on Drew's speakerphone. Mr. Bell was never seen until the last episode of the season after he was fired by the new owners. Other characters that appeared exclusively in this era were Drew's hillbilly neighbor, Jules, and his family. Drew's first girlfriend, Lisa, was introduced in this season, and she remained with the cast until the early episodes of the second season.
