The Drew Carey Show Goes Into Syndication
This is good news for Drew Carey fans. The Drew Carey Show may be syndicated soon. Drew talked about his long-spanning career, which includes his previous sitcom.
Unlike other popular sitcoms like Friends, Seinfeld, Two and a Half Men, and Everybody Loves Raymond, The Drew Carey Show was never in syndication.
The Drew Carey Show ran from 1995 to 2004. On the series, Drew portrayed a fictional version of himself. The series also starred Craig Ferguson, Christa Miller, Diedrich Bader, Kathy Kinney, and Ryan Stiles.
Most of these people already had successful comedy careers. But the show elevated them even more, including Drew Carey himself.
The series is currently available to purchase. But Drew admitted that it never ran in syndication because of “music rights and stuff.” Episodes are available to watch on Amazon Prime and Apple TV +.
“We’re going to try to change that around and get it back out there,” Drew Carey said in his interview with TV Insider.
He believes the show would still be popular to this day. He recalls that much of the subject matter was “timeless” and “pretty funny.”
