The more I think about it, the more I think this could work out.

Yes, I like Todd as a choice, but outside the fanb0i circle, he's an unknown. Honestly, it's not like Steines is a household name either, compared to say, John Tesh, or even Bob Goen...John Tesh, now there's a name I haven't heard in a while.

Drew, on the other hand, starred in a successful sitcom* that still airs in syndication, and I know a lot of people who fondly loved Whose Line...even if it was for Wayne or Colin. Bottom line: Drew has name recognition and is good on his toes. And he proved in the interview that he GETS IT.

*Granted, ABC did the show worse than CBS with WKRP, he still got nine years...that's good for ANY show.
"They're both Norman Jewison movies, Troy, but we did think of one Jew more famous than Tevye."

Now celebrating his 22nd season on GSF!

Well, Drew has the perfect opportunity to tell us if he's doing "Price" or not - he's set to do David Letterman's show on Monday.[/quote]

There, fixed that for me. (And Randy, sorry I added on to your ended thread there.)
