Synopsis
Drew Carey is your average, 9-to-5 kinda guy, working in a dead end job, living in the same house he grew up in, and hanging out with his life-long friends, Lewis, Oswald, and Kate.
He hates his co-worker, Mimi, who is to him the embodiment of all things evil. Lewis works as a janitor at a drug company, and Oswald works hard at being unemployed. Drew, Lewis, and Oswald, own Buzz Beer, a homegrown cross-pollination of Beer and Coffee.
Drew has lots of luck, and at the same time, no luck, in love. To illustrate: Drew has been married six times on the show, at one stage to three different people, one of whom was a man.
Some interesting facts about the characters' names: Lewis' middle name is Michaelangelo, Drew's is Allison, and Oswald's full name is Oswald Harvey Lee.
