Rosie O'donnell hosting The Price is Right?

Barker Says O'Donnell Could Replace Him

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Bob Barker endorsed his friend Rosie O'Donnell as a possible successor on ``The Price Is Right,'' although the newly retired host isn't sure CBS wants a woman to take over the game show.
``I believe they're going to have a meeting with Rosie,'' Barker said backstage Friday night at the Daytime Emmy Awards, where he won his 19th trophy.
``She knows the show,'' he said. ``There's no doubt in my mind she could do the show. Now, whether they want a lady host, I don't know. I've never heard that discussed. As far as I know, they've only auditioned men.''
Barker said his friendship with O'Donnell goes back several years, when she had him as a guest on her old daytime talk show.
``She told me she loved `The Price Is Right' and wanted to host it one day,'' he recalled.
Among those mentioned as possible replacement hosts have been Todd Newton of the E! network, Mark Steines of ``Entertainment Tonight,'' George Hamilton and John O'Hurley.
Barker retired last week at age 83 after 35 years of giving away vacations and cars on the hit CBS game show. But he said he may be back with some specials featuring vintage clips and guests.
``If it works out, I'd like to do that,'' he said.

I use to like Rosie a whole lot but now she's kinda getting to just be that person you laugh at when you hear about them, I hate to say it. I don't want her hosting it though, The Price is Right is kinda like a family heirloom show I guess. My greatgrand mother watched it, my grandmother watched it, my mom watched it and I still watch it whenever I can and I don't really think Rosie is the best girl for the job....... :blink:

Is it weird I've never actually watched the show? Like I've seen clips from the shows like "Game shows greatest moments" and such.

I remember when Bill Cullen hosted The Price Is Right...
