According to Yahoo website, Bob Barker said Rosie could replace him
This would be a pip of an idea

Posted: 6/16/07 at 10:26amI'm all for Rosie on The Price is Right. Mainstream America will see her for what hse really is: a delusional kook.
If Tom DeLay is The Hammer, then I proclaim a new title for the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi: The Briber. Nancy Pelosi had to bribe her members with spinach to get their votes.

I can imagine someone hugging her & she hauls off & belts him/her in the mouth.
I think it is a great idea but I cannot believe they have not got a replacement yet. What happens to Barker's Beauties?
The burning question I always wanted to ask: Was Barker ever spayed or neutered? America wants to know. Just kidding Bob from someone old enough to remember you on Truth or Consequences in the 50's

Barker goes on to state some of those interviewed were John O Hurley & George Hamilton.
My God, Hamilton can not be far behind him age wise

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

I can imagine Barkers Beauties being replaced by Rosie's Riveters - women all looking like Rosie
Prize winners would have to meet eligibility requirements. If you are anything but a staunch democrat, you are not even allowed in the audience
Howard Dean would also be a natural as host.

Posted: 6/16/07 at 12:26pmWhat about Elizabeth Hasselbeck? Or a joint effort of lovely Elizabeth with Rosie?

Posted: 6/16/07 at 12:27pmJohn O'Hurley will take any job offered him. He'd probably still try to keep his Family Feud gig too.

How about Hasselback as the host & Rosie as one of the models showing the prizes ?
I guess if they offered it to him, he would take it. Will they go for a name ? if so, he would appear to be out. If they want game show experience, they should go for the one with the game show TV host name Wink Martindale

Rosie O'Donnell has been chasing after this job ever since Bob Barker announced his retirement, constantly flooding the producers with emails and phone calls stating her interest in doing it.
She was still trying to convince them to hire her as recently as last week, but apparently she was finally given a firm answer of "thanks but no thanks" a few days ago.
I won't be surprised if she ends up with her own TV project next fall on NBC. Ben Silverman (the new head of entertainment for the network) is apparently quite anxious to sign her up for something.
About who will end up replacing Barker-- I too am confused as to how they haven't hired someone yet. They've been searching for months (with a few good possibilities) and still haven't been able to come to a decision.
The last I heard (I believe Barker was quoted as saying it himself) was that he was most likely going to come back and kick off the new season temporarily until they decide on a permanent successor.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Posted: 6/16/07 at 2:00pmThis would have perfect for Rosie after leaving her talk show, but now she would be too much of a buzz kill for such a fun show. Everyone knows her as too political and angry to host such mindless fun.

Posted: 6/16/07 at 2:13pmRosei said on her blog last week that if she got the job she wants Ross from Leno to be the announcer.

Posted: 6/16/07 at 2:15pmIf America could deal with a serial defendant in sexual harassment lawsuits asking them to guess the price of Rice-a-Roni, they could make the adjustment to somebody who is "too political," which in this country generally means "political at all." And she'd be hosting a game show, not discussing "hot" topics.

Posted: 6/16/07 at 2:54pmRosie's ending tagline would be, "If you know a Republican, remember to get them spayed or neutered."

Ummm... I doubt VERY MUCH that any network would turn down Rosie. CBS could use the boost.
I think it would be awesome. Bring it to NYC!!!!
It's a good transition for her.
#22re: Bob Barker Says Rosie Could Replace Him
Posted: 6/16/07 at 4:25pmI would definitely be watching The Price Is Right if that were to happen.

"Ummm... I doubt VERY MUCH that any network would turn down Rosie."
Tell that to ABC, who turned down her counter offer to come back for another year on "The View" (though they were willing to have her back for a three year deal.)
Apparently CBS called O'Donnell today and booked a meeting wither her for next week after Barker's endorsement at the Emmy's last night, so she may have a shot at the hosting job after all.
