Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Conan71 on June 20, 2007, 07:52:53 am Among others considered are John O'Hurley and George Hamilton. Personally, I'd like to see O'Hurley get it, but Hamilton's permanent tan would look more like Bob Barker. [;)]

Rosie is a horrible fit for the part. Like putting Robin Williams on Jeopardy. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: cannon_fodder on June 20, 2007, 10:00:15 am Robin Williams on Jeopardy, wow. That's a thought.
Anyone but Rosie. They have to be careful as any replacement risks ruining the legendary reputation of the show and watching it melt away. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Breadburner on June 20, 2007, 10:13:00 am No women on the Price Is Right period.....If they want to kill it hire Rosie.....Who wants to see that much flannel in an audience....

Rosie? No. Not a good idea. If they want a comic in the host position, how about someone like Elayne Boosler, or Jenny Jones? Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: sgrizzle on June 20, 2007, 01:14:41 pm Not to be sexist, but I think you nix some of the spirit of the show if you don't have a grey-haired man surrounded by swimsuit models. That put you up there with Hugh Hefner on best ways to be a grandpa.
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: mr.jaynes on June 20, 2007, 01:19:17 pm Well, sure, but I don't think Charlton Heston is available, lol.
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Conan71 on June 20, 2007, 01:19:30 pm Though it would have given me pleasure to see Adam Sandler clock Rosie in the chops.
"The price is wrong Rosie!" Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: cannon_fodder on June 20, 2007, 01:51:59 pm quote: Lesbians wear flannel. At least that is the stereo type. Rosie is a lesbian, a fat "bull dyke" type lesbian even (can I say bull dyke? Bull dike). Thus, Rosie would wear flannel. Likewise, her lesbian legion would wear flannel to the Price is Right. The stereo type image would be many lesbians in flannel, presumably of the same girth as Rosie, and no one wants to see that. Did I kill the joke? [:P] - - - No woman, if it has to be a woman let it be Ellen, she makes me chuckle. Doogie would be fine with me. Or the Seinfeld guy. Hell, for one month have a different host each week and pick the best one.

Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: NellieBly on June 20, 2007, 02:09:26 pm Geez at least spell your stereotypes correctly - it's bull dyke.
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: mr.jaynes on June 20, 2007, 04:01:02 pm How about a different host each day? Like SNL, if someone has a movie or TV show to promote, they can host "Price" to do just that.
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: rwarn17588 on June 20, 2007, 04:55:59 pm I thought those who wore flannel were either:
1) lumberjacks; 2) people who live in really cold climates; 3) rockers feeling nostalgic for Seattle grunge. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Wilbur on June 20, 2007, 07:14:09 pm Actually, I think Rosie would be good for the Price is Right. Based on a couple reasons:
1. I liked Rosie years ago when she was first getting started doing standup comedy. She used to be on a VH1 standup comedy show and was always funny. I think the Price is Right could use a little comedy infusion from Rosie. 2. I would like to think the Price is Right isn't ripe for political comments, thus it might muzzle Rosie while on TV. I think it would be hard to play all the games they do to win prizes and have her infuse her views on politics at the same time. If she tried, it would kill the show. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: tulsa1603 on June 20, 2007, 07:18:03 pm quote: Well, Bob Barker always used the closing comments to remind us to have our pets spayed or neutered - Rosie might do something similar except "And remember to always question your government's involvement in terrorist disasters!" But I doubt it. Oh, and whoever said she's a bull dyke, I don't think so. She's not a bull dyke, but she's not a lipstick lesbian, either. She's just run of the mill lesbian - more of a power lesbian really. Like Suze Orman. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: mr.jaynes on June 20, 2007, 08:04:02 pm quote: ....or Lily Tomlin. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Steve on June 21, 2007, 10:42:17 am I don't care much for OHurley; he should stick with the current incarnation of "Family Feud" where he is now.
I think they should give the job to an unknown. Audition new younger talent, and pick the best one. As long as the TPIR format remains the same and they keep a mix of the old familiar games with an occasional new one, any competent, likeable host will probably succeed. R. ODonnell? Absolutely not! Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: YoungTulsan on June 21, 2007, 12:36:43 pm Give it to Mr. T!
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: cannon_fodder on June 21, 2007, 12:59:42 pm Mr. T found Jesus and got a reality show a while back. Wow, it was bad. Horribly bad. In fact, I watched in 2 times because it was SO bad it made me embarrassed for him. Wow. Nightmares.
I dont think he could hack it. Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Steve on June 21, 2007, 01:05:27 pm quote: Agreed. Mr. T (and Kirk Cameron) is a staple of Paul & Jan Crouch's TBN "christian" programming now, broadcast ch. 17 in Tulsa. Oh, how the mighty have fallen ... Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: NCTulsan on June 22, 2007, 06:44:30 am The producers for the show should really consider their audience. I don't think it's a Rosie type audienct.
What does anyone think about Tom Bergeron as host? Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: mr.jaynes on June 22, 2007, 11:38:18 am Someone suave and sophisticated. How about Roger Moore?
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: sgrizzle on June 22, 2007, 01:16:58 pm Sean Connery... the one on celebrity jeopardy.
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Porky on June 23, 2007, 05:28:45 am The only show I can see Rosie hosting would be The Jerry Springer Show. She could have Ricki Lake as a Co Host and if the show would become boring, her and Ricki could always have a Jello Wrestling bout. [8D]
Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: sgrizzle on June 23, 2007, 08:14:02 am I read the Drew Carey is the frontrunner for the spot now.
I'm never eating Jello again....[:O] Title: Rosie Wants Price Is Right Post by: Wilbur on June 25, 2007, 08:56:38 pm According to Perez, The Price offered the show to Rosie and she turned it down because they wanted her to re-locate to LA, which she does not want to do.
