While a few of us have had our problems with Barker's hosting of Price during the last handful of years, I can't help but feel, based on the recent trends in game shows, that the show may get much worse without Bob than with him.
Yeah, I've also gotten rather jaded regarding the current direction of the genre. In fact, if things continue as they are, once Jeopardy! (and, depending on how it goes, Wheel) is cancelled I just might bail on game shows entirely - especially if Joker and Combination Lock disappoint.

Sadly, I entirely agree.
