In other words, he'd choose the host of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on USA Network over, say, a comedian to host TPIR, because the former has hosting experience.

Hey, Fred Willard might be a great host.

Joe Garagiola might still be available too.

I am wondering if Fremantle even intended to make a pick until Barker was safely out the door, with his office in Santa Monica and dressing room next to 33 packed and vacated (including Dian's spare panties).  Granted, it seems as though he was not involved in the selection and audition process at all, but I'm wondering if Cecile Frot-Coutaux wanted to make sure that on those rainy Fridays when Barker wasn't on the golf course that he didn't have the hankering to saunter into her office and offer advice on his replacement.

The item has made the radio show prep services.  This morn one radio guy said "If Rosie takes over, the title of the show will change to 'The Price Is Left'."

Here's another article. Check this quote out...

Quote
One solution that O’Donnell will propose is shooting a month’s worth of shows over a four-day period every 30 days
You would absolutely be pushing it at 3 shows a day. And this quote...

Quote
I’m told that the reason “Price” reruns are not syndicated to cable outlets like Game Show Network or TV Land has to do with his own bitterness about former female presenters who appeared in three decades of shows
Explain to me how GSN it ran for about 4 years

The unraveling about testifying against Barker didn't happen yet.

Oh...I didn't see that quote....but saw this about five lines down...
Quote
But Barker, sources say, has managed to get back at the Beauties by stopping the syndication.

“That way the girls have never gotten a dime for their reruns,” says my source. “They’d be making millions now by union rules. But Barker has made sure they haven’t gotten anything.”

That Fox News item was more of a gossip column, not a story.  Wouldn't the scorned beauties get any royalties from the upcoming DVD release?

In fact, until this summer, “The Price is Right” wasn’t even shown in reruns.
So what, then, have they been airing every summer up till now?

"I think there are several candidates who could do the show, and Rosie is certainly one of them."
She is NOT a candidate, you old geezer. a) She has not done an audition, and b) Fremantle's public statements imply that they are not even interested in her.

Quote

Five one-hour shows per day with one hour of rehearsal each? Throw in a production meeting and first and second meals and the time it takes to turn the studio around from taping one show to rehearsing the next, and you're talking 14 - 16 hour days. You'll burn the crew out.

Quote

They've never taped three one-hour shows per day, to the best of my knowledge. It was proposed but Barker wouldn't go for it. The closest they've come was two one-hour shows and one half-hour show when Barker was emceeing the nighttime version in '79 and '80. Their taping day ran from 10 am to 8 pm IIRC, which is tolerable.
