Drew ought to thin a bit, or he (not we) won’t be around to enjoy the following that Bob Barker had. Maybe Drew just wears fat pads, to throw people off. Drew…? Thanks again, Mr. Barker. At least now, the great grandkids will have you around more often. You can always visit Minnesota, see Vince’s bear sanctuary: www.americanbear.org, and/or visit the CAF: www.cafmn.org (we have a B-25, P-51C, RAF AT-6, BT-13, L-5; Ground vehicles). Anyone can be a volunteer, or a member, Bob. Thank you.

If so, he’d be very good, but he’d better start watching his weight, or we won’t be around long enough to create the following that Bob Barker enjoyed. Kind of wonder if Mr. Barker is enjoying the re-runs, now that he’s retired. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s sitting home bored. From the Navy in WW2, to the game shows he emceed over the years, what’s an active fellow to do? From the Iron Range country, of northeast Minnesota, I thank you. A ton of orchids to you and yours, Mr. Robert Barker, and thanks to you, all these years! You are missed!

He has the ability to capture the audience with his marble eyes and incredible appearance across the board. I will only watch TPIR if Mark Walberg becomes host. The rest of the “competition” doesn’t do it for me.

On 20 Jul 2007, charlene dantonio wrote: The star or emcee of this show has to be someone who follows the sexy, entising, and versitile manner of bob. Drew Carey, are you kidding me. Fat, offensive, and certainly NOT sexy. You need another bob Barker. Two people fit that bill — Mario Lopez and best choice Joey Fontone. Showmanship, sexy, a definitely another bob. Give me a break, Rosie????? Drew???? Get a life

On 19 Jul 2007, Ann wrote: Call Mark Wahlberg to replace Bob. No not the one that played in “Rock Star” movie the one from the Antique Road Show. He was the host of the Louisiana Downs scaled downed “Price is Right” and he already knows the games and was a fantastic energetic host. Couldnt ask for a nicer guy!!!!! Please dont get Drew Carey or Rosie!!! Ugh

On 18 Jul 2007, Marilyn wrote: I think it could be fun to have a national talent search, as is done with American Idol, using applicants or former winners. Contestants could host the show for a day. Runners-up could do likewise, and the winner could be required to sign a contract to do the show for a specified time (1 year to start?) This method could have our whole nation on the edge of our chairs and would be so fun. The suspense would be akin to that of (remember?) having to wait to see who shot JR

On 16 Jul 2007, Anonymous wrote: personally i think it is time to just let it go. without bob it will be both boring and losing followers. the only real option to replace such an upstanding icon would be via the reality show tangent so the fan base can pick the host they like. until then take the voice thateveryone heres and put him up frontas he at least knows what bob represented to the fans.
