View Full Version : Without Bob Barker, should TPiR go on?

If a replacement host was found for Bob Barker on TPiR, would you even bother to tune in? How good/great would his replacement have to be for you to even consider watching? I'm considering not watching if they don't cancel it sometime between now and Sept., TBH

They have tried out new hosts when Bob gets sick or takes a break and it just isn't the same. It shouldn't continue, but it will until it falls flat on its face.

It would depend on who they select. I mean if the rumors are true and Rosie O'Donnell becomes host, then HELL NO I wouldn't watch. I guess we will have to wait and see first.

*WARNING: GAME SHOW NUT ENTERING THREAD*
Mario Lopez turned it down.
Chuck Woolery's very comfortable doing Lingo. (Read: fondling Shandi Finnessey every day)
Dave Price (the weatherman on the Early Show) was supposedly the heir apparent, but his audition sucked so bad that it left the network scrambling.
At one point, they had announced a top three: Todd Newton, George Hamilton, and Mark Steines (Entertainment Tonight guy), but now they're doing more auditions, including John O'Hurley.
If it were up to me, I'd have it down to two by now: Newton and Marc Summers. Marc's been hosting a live stage version of TPiR at a Harrah's casino, I think in Atlantic City, and supposedly is doing a hell of a job.
In answer to DAMNiNATOR's question, yeah, keep it going, as long as they don't choose an incompetent as hell host.

Damn, from you continuing to neg rep me over this, you're taking this WAAAAAY too seriously. I never said he wasn't likeable, just that he was sometimes annoying, and is more annoying than Drew Carey (and seeing as how I was able to name a TON of people more annoying than Drew, Jeff was kind of in the majority).

I actually enjoyed Drew. Yeah, he slipped up at times, but it was his first show, and he didn't slip up often. His pace was much quicker than Barker (with all due respect to him), and his humor was well planned and he didn't really overshadow any of the contestants by being overbearing, making the contestants more comfortable (I loved that he cracked on the sound effects guide, making the contestant say "oh great sound effects guide"). The set was alot better than it has been lately.
Know some of you guys won't agree with me, but I like the freshness of this modified TPIR.

The vid's been taken down but I do recall that moment quite vividly. Another moment is on one of the "Million Dollar Spectacular"s, where something pissed Bob off (I think a contestant was taking too long to make a bid for his/her showcase or something), and he actually reportedly sat on the stage steps until the bid had been made. I seem to recall him being quite bitter about that. *SIGH* MAYBE, just maybe TPiR can struggle through this season but I don't know how much more it's got left in the tank without Bob or without Rod Roddy. Ever since that man's passing, yes, Rich...whatever his name is has done a OK job announcing, but whenever I hear him it makes my ears bleed. If it gets picked up for Season 37, or even makes it through this season without being cancelled, I for one, will be amazed.
