The problem is being a good contestant doesn't equal being a good host based on familiarity with the audience alone. Well, in his case he works with the show already, he became famous from the show (which works in his favor), and he seems to be liked for his involvement with the show in general. He's also 46, which means he'd be able to provide a reasonably long tenure -- at least 20 years, maybe over 30. When it comes to hosts, you kinda want to think long-term. The one thing is he doesn't have much of a sense of humor, although this is the kind of show where the host doesn't necessarily need to shine. Raddest_Chad posted... For some reason I think Tracy Morgan would be such an ironic choice that it would be entertaining. He probably wouldn't be able to articulate the clues quickly and clearly enough. Lokarin posted... There's a chance it might be Eddie Murphy... weird I seriously doubt that. Eddie is 59 right now (which partially limits his tenure) and he's in the kind of place where he just doesn't seem likely to get involved in an ongoing commitment like this.

The problems with Anderson Cooper is that he already has a lot of other projects. He's also 53, which is starting to push it a little at the age level.

But I think he could keep it serious as well if that is what they wanted him to do. So while I don't think DC would do it, I could see him be able to do it and be decent with it. My vote was for Ken Jennings however. It took a while for me to get used to it but Carey is PERFECT for The Price Is Right. I wouldn't want him to leave the show at this point.

The last time I saw him on the show was (I believe) an April Fool's episode from maybe 4-5 years ago. IT's kind of amazing that Bob outlived Alex Trebek too. I mean he's easily 95 years old!

And that's taking her age off the table (she's 63) and the fact that she'd be a poor fit for the show in general, it's not exactly promoting from within. There are a lot of people who actually work on Jeopardy who could be promoted from within. She just happens to work at the same network for a different show and one where, although it probably wouldn't take much to replace her, she'd be missed. Honestly, even if Pat died, I doubt Vanna would be asked to step up full-time in his shoes, let alone take over for the host of another show. Black_Crusher posted...
