You will never—and I mean never—guess how the episode of ‘The Drew Carey Show’ featuring The Blue Man Group went.
screenshot of Wikipedia text: The Drew Carey Show (2001) – During the episode "Drew Live III," the Blue Man Group experimented on Drew Carey as he slept on the train, making it look like he had sex with his nemesis, Mimi Bobeck. At the end of the show, it was revealed that their motive was for Drew to kill himself out of embarrassment so that they, along with John Ratzenberger, could take over the show.
