I have a real hard time," he says. "I've sat in the editing room a few times onThe Drew Carey Show, and I had to leave. I don't do it that often because every time I saw it, I was like, 'That's what I look like? And that's [how] I walk?' I get so tired of seeing myself." Noting that one of the producers onThe Price Is Righttold him that he wanted to give him some notes regarding his onscreen performances, Carey says he was made to watch himself so he could understand what production was talking about. "I was like, 'Oh my God.' He was like, 'I know, I apologize.' And he really had to twist my arm to make me watch myself, even onThe Price Is Right," he continues. "So I've always been like this. I don't watchThe Price Is Right. I don't watchThe Drew Carey Show. Once in a while, I'll put it on [to] just like see a minute of it, orWhose Line [Is It Anyway?]." The Drew Carey Showco-creator and executive producerBruce Helford, who was also interviewed alongside Carey, goes on to tellParadewhy the 30th anniversary DVD set of the beloved sitcom is such a meaningful release for fans.

But this is going to be great for people to have it handy like this, and to be able to watch." He adds: "I got to tell you that when you watch nine years of this, you will go, 'Wow.' More than any other comedy show you watch, you'll be like, 'Wow, they did that?' So it's really cool." The complete series ofThe Drew Carey Showwill be available on DVD for the first time this fall.
