Who do YOU think will replace Bob Barker?
 
Of course assuming CBS renew the show, and try and run "The Price is Right" all the way into the ground.

I think they end the show. Return the time to the affiliates.

Mopower 02-21-07 11:02 AM

Cancel the show. That space could be used for more important things. Like infomercials.

CBS will at least give the show a shot with a new host. It won't be cancelled immediately after Bob's retirement. It may not lost the full season, but it will come back in the fall.

Is there a known date for the last one Barker is hosting? Perhaps a primetime special?

I thought I heard a rumor that the weather guy from CBS's Early Show got the gig? Dave something.

How about that guy from the Orbitz commercials? I don't know his name, so I'll just call him Mort Winkindale.

They already done a new version once without Bob Barker, a nighttime version hosted by Doug Davidson, which was a complete failure.. I doubt they cancel it right off, but I don't see it lasting long once Barker departs from the show.

Someone with a good history of taking over for a host that was synonymous with his show. Ray Combs has that experience.

They should go in a totally different direction.

I say John O'Hurley, he has done a great job with the newest version of The Family Fued.

BDLOU 02-21-07 12:48 PM

Kirk Herbstreit from ESPN's College Football Gameday said on his radio show in Columbus, OH that he was offered the job but he turned it down. He said he also turned down a job to host a syndicated Deal or No Deal.

Rosie. Sadly, I can't think of anyone who would appeal to housewives more than that fat bag of piss.

I can never get enough Tom Bergeron!

I don't think it really matters who replaces him, the show is going to end anyway. It will probably do well the first month of the new season when people are tuning in out of curiosity. After that I suspect the ratings will drop and it'll be canceled or just limp along the rest of the year and not be renewed. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see how anyone can replace Barker and keep the showing going strong.

pinata242 02-21-07 01:56 PM

Make it HD like Wheel of Fortune!

girlnextdoor 02-21-07 02:00 PM

I am the replacement - just don't tell anyone yet ;)
