Who do you think could replace Barker?

Maybe it's just me, but I really think that Todd Newton would be not a very good fit for Price. He's just not sedate enough. As for Marc, well, even though I think Marc is the one of the best things since sliced bread, I don't think he'd fit all too well either. Maybe this is the purist in me talking (and it probably is), but I think the Winker would fit the job well. Him or Bergeron, I guess.

Is it just me... or does this topic come up about once every 3 months?? It's like a bad reoccuring dream.
And... just for the record... my vote is for Tom Bergeron... I think he's perfect for the gig.
Timsterino:
Seeing Todd Newton host the show in Reno, I have to say he is more than competent to host TPiR. He changes his style a bit for Price from Whammy as he should. I thought he was a great host.
Other candidates do come to mind including Tom Bergeron. But I will leave them for a future discussion.
Tim :-)
LA the DJ:
I'll say bergeron or Summers. Freemantle seems sold on Newton, and I'm sure he'd do alright, but I think the other two would do better.
I remember this topic coming up on ATGS every three months...
Back then I think I was saying Summers or Tomarken :-X

I've always thought Dennis James would do a great job.
