If Mario Lopez gets Price Is Right gig, I'm going to vomit
Seriously. Mario Lopez is supposedly one of the three finalists in the running to take over for Bob Barker when he retires from the long-running CBS game show later this year. The other two finalists? Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Donald Trump.
OK, I'm kidding about those last two names. But would they be more of a ridiculous choice than Dancing with the Stars star Lopez? What do producers see in him that they say, "you know, he might be a good replacement for Bob?"
The other two finalists are actually George Hamilton (or HamilTAN) and Entertainment Tonight host Mark Steines. Steines I can actually see as host. After all, the way you have to host a gossip show is kinda the same as hosting a crazy game show. But Hamilton? That's...interesting. I wonder if he auditioned and what exactly he brought to the show? John O'Hurley and Todd Newton were also interested in the job.
Missing from the list is Dave Price, who supposedly had the job locked up months ago. I wonder what happened?
