Todd Newton 4%

Total Votes: 164,442
What is everyone else's thoughts on who should be his replacement? I have not watched TPIR in years. BUT, If Mario Lopez becomes the new host....I may have to start recording it

 

[bellalaundry]

My vote is for George Hamilton.

i nominate David Ruprecht of Supermarket Sweep. we must be careful. some of the other personalities mentioned are too hammy (O'Donnell) amd would draw too much attention to themselves. Mario Lopez? Ack!

 

[petek]

Oh I'd definitely vote for John O'Hurley, he even looks like a game show host

Laundry Pairs as Prizes

My favorite things to watch for on TPIR and a few other major league game shows: New laundry pairs. Occasionally, a laundry detergent product might appear in one of those oddball grocery games.--Laundry Shark

My vote is for Bill Cullen.

 

[frigilux]

Robert-- I, too, loved Bill Cullen. I'll get my Resurrect-A-Host kit out and see what I can do, LOL.

 

[jetaction]

My two cents worth...

Anybody but Rosie O'Donnell.

 

[kenmorepeter5ab]

Vote for who is the host of T.P.I.R.

I will vote for Mario Lopez or maybe Howie Mandel (from Deal or No Deal)??

- Peter (kenmorepeter5ab) ;-) ( I am deaf )

 

[Unimatic1140]

Besides Mario, Rosie and George Hamilton are the only people I know on that list. I am aware of the late Bill Cullen due to Frigidaire advertising.

Regardless of qualifications, anytime Mario is on a list, Mario will have my vote. I have had a crush on him since the beginning of time, and I still love Saved by the Bell reruns!

 

[petek]

You have to know John O'Hurley, he played J Peterman, Elaines boss on Seinfeld. Apparently in reality he's a half partner in the co. now with J Peterman himself.

Attn. Frigilux

My vote is for Bud Collyer of "Beat The Clock" fame.

 

[jasonl]

NOBODY

When Bob leaves... shark jumped, the end, c'est tout!

NOBODY can replace him. That's like telling me in 1986 the direct-drive mechanism is replacing the belt-drive mech in the KM/WP machines.

That's like VW discontinuing the classic Bug in Mexico a few years ago.

All good things come to an end but replace Bob? Just cancel the show.

 

[gansky1]

Nobody for for Coop?

 

[alexb1186]

I personally want Todd Newton to do it for 2 reasons

1. He's from Oakville in South STL county, my former neck of the woods
2. He's already hosting Price is Right Live at Harrah's so wouldn't that pose an influence?

 

[cleanteamofny]

We want eye candy!
Mario Lopez!

 

[brettsomers]

omg. i think Mario is hot, and i want to see him naked, but do i want him walking people down the "Golden Road" and pulling the cards out of the "Punch a Bunch" punchboard? hell no! my goodness!
