Now that it has sunk in that Bob Barker is officially retired (and now that we’ve come to terms with the fact that the guy was probably a serious sleaze), we must look forward… Forward to next season, when a new, yet-to-be-determined host will take over the skinny mic reign. Barker has announced that he endorses Rosie O’Donnell for the gig, which seems to us oddly suspicious and possibly sabotaging.
But think about it — this is probably one of the hottest gigs on the daytime television market right now. There are dozens of candidates vying to fill Bob’s vinyl loafers! So we thought we’d open up a little forum: Who would YOU like to see take over the reigns on The Price Is Right? Some of our fantasy hosts include:
- Anderson Cooper
- John O’Hurley (our fave choice)
- Kelsey Grammar
- Bon Jovi
- Tyra Banks
- Mr. Bean (mute and in full character)
- Queen Latifah
- A CGI-d Gene Rayburn
- Bob Ueker
Your turn.
