Drew's gotten better, but I still think he was the wrong choice for TPIR; you need someone who can read the room and adapt/improv, and honestly, that's never been Drew's strong suit (go back to the WLIIA episodes he hosted and tell me those final games weren't PAINFUL to watch.) Hell, it's been how many years, and he still doesn't refer to the values on the Showcase Showdown wheel as dollars and cents.
