Rosie Taking on Price is Right?
Well, it’s been rumored that Rosie O’Donnell may take over for Bob Barker on The Price is Right, but Bob himself confirmed during Friday’s Daytime Emmy awards that a meeting is in the works. Bob said, “I believe they’re going to have a meeting with Rosie. She knows the show. There’s no doubt in my mind she could do the show.” Wow, what about the other Price hopefuls, Todd Newton, George Hamilton and Mark Steines? The search landed these three in the finals, but seems CBS is dragging its heels and O’Donnell is coming in as a late entry. Question is, will she win the coveted game show hosting gig? Given her loud mouth and strong views (no pun intended for The View, but hey, it works), you’d think she wouldn’t be a very popular choice. Then again, what better job to keep her quiet than a game show? She has to stick to the job at hand, with no opportunity for political discussions or room to view her opinions. It may just be the perfect job for her. Will viewers tune in? Given Barker’s departure, it seems that any replacement is going to take some getting used to. Stay tuned to see how Rosie’s “meeting” went. Given that Bob’s last show just aired, CBS had better get things in gear and find a new host.

God I hope Rosie doesn’t take over the Price is Right. She seems like a very angry and sad women. Which really is a shame because she was once so funny and so good. She needs help in dealing with herself especially when someone disagrees with her. The Price is Right needs someone who can laugh at everything. PR

Please do not allow Rosie O’Donnell to take over as host for the retired Bob Barker on the Price is right! She is much too overbearing, loudmouthed and angry to be able to fill the bill. Personal choices and beliefs do not belong on this show. Everyone just wants to have some fun and feel good while watching it. We feel that she would put the show in great jeopardy. Millions of people have grown up watching the Price is Right and it would be a travisty if Rosie O’Donnell would be allowed to be its demise!!! The show needs a fresh face with an upbeat personality with no “agendas”. Please, please reconsider asking Ms. O’Donnell to take over. It would break our hearts to have the show cancelled forever. I am sure Bob Barker would be devistated.
