The Price Is Wrong Damn It!

The TV game show the price is right may have dodged a major bullet to day, As Rosie O'Donnell may not be the next host of the show.

"I believe they're going to have a meeting with Rosie, "Barker said backstage Friday night at the Daytime Emmys, where he won his 19th trophy. "She knows the show. 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. LOS ANGELES—Bob Barker endorsed his old 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.

This morning Rosie off camera at the The View told the audience that talks didn't work out because she wanted to make changes to the show.


Bob Barker spent 35 years as a politically neutral well mannered game show host who's only message was to spade or neuter pets. I do not think it had anything to do with a woman hosting the show, Rosie is a mean spirited bitter person and people went to the game show not only for a chance of winning but to feel good about them self's not to be insulted by the female equivalent of Don Rickles.
