You've heard Edd Hall for years. Do you think he's right for TPIR? I certainly don't, and wouldn't even have extended him an invitation to audition. Maybe some other gig, but not TPIR.

 Is he leaving Leno? I hadn't heard this - did he get fired or what? Sorry this is wildly off topic, but can I get a link or something?

golden-road.net is saying that the "Art Sanders" listed for Feburary is actually Art Astor, a longtime radio personality in the area.

As for Daniel Rosen back....even I could do a better job then him.

Now, can we imagine Randy doing the Tonight Show?

Let's keep him on TPIR.  That's just me though.

I tuned into TPIR today, and could tell the announcing had been kicked up a few notches...didn't take long to figure out it was Randy's voice :D

Since they don't seem to want anyone permanent, I'd like to see Johnny Gilbert announce a couple of TPIRs.  Of course, he'd have to remember that there is a different host than when he last announced the show.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

 He's got the enthusiasm, that's for sure. His introductions on The $25,000 and $100,000 Pyramids were electrifying.

 Well, while we're on THIS tack, why not bring in Gene Wood for a week of shows, just for fun? :)

 Someone brought that up on the previous page. I thought it was a poor idea then, and I do now.

Having Gilbert do it would be a PISS-poor idea, IMO, as well.

I hope we don't get any late night announcers
Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

 You mean, we're gonna say NO to Alan Kalter?

He did a great job doing the Ticket Plug, and I'm confident about it, having listened to the clip on JRJ's site.

So, if he did great with the Ticket Plug, he'll also do well with the remaining announcer duties.

 The ticket plug takes, what, 30 seconds to read?  Compared to the entire amount of copy that is required of the announcer, it's a very small percentage.  

Was he even in the studio when he recorded the ticket plug?  If not, you can't even compare it.

And a radio station owner in San Diego.  He also was an executive for Drake-Chenault, the programming company run by Bill Drake, the man behind "Boss Radio."

An article I found on him from Google from last year says that he's 77 (perhaps 78 by now).  That's right, an announcer only a few years younger than Barker.  If the guy can handle it, go for it, but that sure seems weird, especially from Fremantle--but since he still owns the radio stations, he seems to be doing this just for the hell of it.  Maybe he and Barker are golfing buddies.
