Retro saturdays and the drew carey show

I can't believe it's been this long without mentioning the drew carey show. It is drew's suggestion of what his life would be like if he wasn't an actor(middle management at a department store) and it is a sitcom that chronicles drew and his friend's lives. Lewis,kate and oswald are usually at dtew's house so much so that they might as well live there

Drew works at the winfred louder department store for most of the seasons with him usually being in middle management, at the time that was seen as a joke but now it's a good job. Mr wick later becomes the manager and mimi is also a great character, same with drew's crossdressing brother and his dog speedy and various girlfriends he dates. The show has some great funny moments and episodes such as the one where drew wins the batmobile or where the guys do a strip tease to save the warsaw bar or the april fools episodes

I used to watch it a lot when I was in middle school and I half wanted drew's life especially with having friends over and going with them everywhere and it's also how I pictured dating a girl would be like. The show went away for awhile then came back on laff tv which is a local southern california ota channel. Sadly, the last season went downhill with all the changes. Drew and mimi got jobs at a hip new company run by dotcom hipsters and drew's niece lived with him. The first 6 or 7 seasons are must watch. It's interesting to see the guest stars that would later become more famous such as abby from ncis(drew dated her) dave chapelle,donald trump, triple h and wayne brady. I can go on but there are way too many guests and random musical guests
