The Drew Carey Show A Very Special Drew - May 17, 2000 Remember The Drew Carey Show? It was like a less attractive, less glamorous Friends. Some would argue less funny. We here at VSTV would like to take this time to prove that hypothesis. In the year 2000 the folks over at The Drew Carey Show took it upon themselves to skewer this little theme of "very special" episodes with their own entry titled "A Very Special Drew." See the show had never won any Emmy's so they decided to throw in every trick in the book to pull the wool over the eyes of the good voters over at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Those titans of comedy at ABC threw in all the very special tropes we've come to know and love. The eating dis-orders, untimely and unexplained maladies, and the stock characters are all on display for full comedic effect. You can take our word on the efficacy of this experiment - the show never won a single Emmy.
