It’s really hard to be “the guy AFTER the guy.” Take a look at late-night legend Johnny Carson, still one of the best late-night talk show hosts to ever do it. After he left "The Tonight Show," there was a transition to Jay Leno that took time for people to adjust. And forget about the debacle that happened when Leno said he was leaving… only to return to the show, and slight Conan O’Brien in the process. Mess. The same can happen on daytime television game shows, which often get comfortable with the same host, and struggle to survive after a host has moved on. Bob Barker owned "The Price is Right." He held that skinny microphone for 35 years, finally retiring from the program in 2007. And now Barker’s replacement, comedian Drew Carey, reveals the advice that Barker gave him before stepping into the gig.

Drew Carey officially took over hosting duties on "The Price is Right" in August 2007, and has crafted his own role on the program. Which is essentially what previous host Bob Barker told him to do, if he had any chance at succeeding. Speaking with People after holding on to the gig for several years, Carey revealed the advice he received from Barker.
