When are Roger Rose's eps slated to air? They were originally supposed to begin last Fri (2/20).

Ummm.

That's been posted on the CBS website for over a month.

It's also noted that on CBS.com an announcer by the name of Rich Fields will be given a shot next month.

Art Sanders has been pretty good so far. Looking forward to Roger Rose and eventually Rich Fields.

I'm liking these "unknowns" getting a shot.

Guess those audition tapes are finally coming in.

Could this (http://\"http://www.cbstv2.com/bioarticle.asp?id=1357§ion=bio&network=kpsp\") possibly be the Rich Fields you guys speak of?

Seems like it to me, since he's already a network employee.

Does this mean that Dave Price is also going to try out as "TPIR" announcer, too?

If they're resorting to small market weathermen for the announcing gig, then i'm sending my large market weatherman tape.

Jeez.

Hey, go for it...Price also managed to get himself a spot on H2 for a week in Dec, so anything's possible. :-)

Oh, no he's not--oops!

That's what I get for just seeing "CBS" and "2" at the top of the page.  I didn't see the "TV" in-between.

It might make for a good CBS affil piece for sweeps..."Come on down! Our own wacky weatherman Walter Windchill got to be the announcer for The Price is Right for a day, plus....a common item in your house right now could kill you....details at 5!"

The TPIR announcer works for Fremantle, not CBS.

CBS.com lists an individual by the name of Don Bishop taking the place of Rich Fields.

I guess I can chime in with the first critique....

He's....well, alright. Not as good as Art Sanders, but better than Daniel Rosen.* He screwed up on the Plinko intro, just putting the emphasis on the 50K. So, in other words, he could use some inprovement. His prize descriptions are good, though.

*=then again, ANYONE'S better than Daniel Rosen.

He wasn't exactly spectacular, but he wasn't terrible, either....far from it. He was OK...and for a first-timer, OK is pretty good.

But then again, I'd welcome Rich Jeffries back with open arms over Daniel Rosen.

 Be careful what you wish for:

Bob: What's the next item up for bids, Jeffrey?
Jeffrey Tambor: It's a bowl of oatmeal!
[fast forward]
"Hey now, this is Jeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhffrey Tambor speaking for..."

Yes, I know Tambor is already tied to Fox's Arrested Development now, but given its ratings he'll likely be a free agent in May.

He seems like he could be good, given some time to improve. He had good energy, just needed to put it in the correct places.

The first day jitters were there, but Roger did a fairly decent job IMO. However, he certainly doesn't tip the scales, and I am still in the Randy West camp.

One thing to note, the audience was literally at the edge of their seats throughout the show, so that might say something for Roger's warmup.

Bob, however, seemed to be in a "rush, rush, rush" mood, as he barely spent any time talking to the contestants.

 We'll see how he does on his second show on Monday, which just happens to be a historic one for TPIR :) But he didn't do too bad for day one.

With H2 finito, I wonder if Fremantle would consider John Moschitta for auditions?

I talked with John last weekend about this. He had been in conversation and had submitted tapes, but was passed over for a potential on-air try-out.   ;-(

Just got an e-mail saying that cbs.com has added Roger's name to their poll. If so, I assume they'll be starting a new tally of votes. (HINT!  ;-)

 bad for John, good for Randy. Unlike Roger, Art, and Daniel, however, at least John M. has a bit of national GS announcing experience.

Any word as to how long these on-air tryouts will continue? I'm seriously considering sending a tape to Roger and Co.
