Well, TPiR's getting a new host or they could cancel the show on CBS.

What are you talking about? The new host will be announced soon for the fall shows. As of now Bob Barker's rerun shows will air throughout the summer.

Fremantle and CBS will announce Bob Barker's successor real soon. I still believe it will be Todd Newton, because he has experience hosting TPIR Live in Las Vegas, attending tapings of the show and taking notes on the show. Forget everyone else, Todd Newton has the most experience and knowledge of The Price is Right of all potential hosts to succeed Bob Barker. Clearly, he's ready to take the reigns as host of the show. However, it will be Fremantle and CBS that will have the final say as to whom Bob's successor will be.

The repeats may continue longer(into October), but there will be a new host...

TripperFan · 06-18-2007, 11:41 AM

Yes, this show will continue Harper - just with a new host.

Who would you like to see follow Bob Barker as host?

Cancel it.....this tired show has been on life support for at least 15 years, IMO

Out of the question. If TPIR survived 35 years with Bob Barker at the helm, it will go on longer with a successor, whom has experience with the show. As long as the viewers continue to tune in to watch, the show must go on.

Bob Barker and his fans were the only thing keeping this show going, the games are tired ( and the new ones are just re-hashes of old games ) and the models have all become clones of each other ( Barker's Stepford Wives ), its seriously time to put this tired old show out of its misery! ( "Nurse, do you have the syringe ready?"

That's your perogative and I greatly disagree with you. I don't think you're a fan of the show. Say whatever you want, but both Fremantle and CBS have already decided the show will go on, with a succeeding host. If you don't like it, that's your problem, live with it.

Although it is a great show, it should end as Bob Barker retires. 35 years is long enough. This would be a great oppurtunity to create a new game show with a new host.

Maybe change the title, but not really cancel it.

Exactly, why have a brand new person do the same exact thing bob did and operate under the same title. It's a New era and it's Time for a Change

I really hope the Price Is Right continues. When is Bob Barker retiring anyway? Has he already? I plan to watch it today at 2:30pm on CBS, but is it a rerun or not?
