Members SFK Posted May 17, 2010 Members Share Posted May 17, 2010 I love Regis, but this choice feels a little "dated." I think they should've at least had Kelly co-host given her soap past. Let's just hope people watch period, can't say that I'm all that excited about the nominees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 17, 2010 Members Share Posted May 17, 2010 Yuck! The last thing I want to see is this arrogant egomaniac host the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bellcurve Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 At least CBS has an actual host this year, thanks to the production company in charge of this event. Every year Les Moonves is in charge of the event, there's no real, marquee host. Just someone to open and close the show. LAZY AND CHEAP! Given the BETTY WHITE© hype, I'm surprised they didn't try hard to get her. She must've had a high pricetag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Betty's never hosted anything before, has she (I mean like an awards show)? She seems to know most of her areas of strength; she turned down SNL for years and only the big fan campaign changed her mind. I don't care for Regis as a game show host and I can't watch him on Live for long periods of time but he will probably be OK as the host for the Emmys. I'm surprised they didn't ask Julie Chen...

Members bellcurve Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 That comes when she gets her View ripoff this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 Regis is an old pro, he will do a competent job. There will be nothing exciting or noteworthy about it, but he will get a couple of jokes in and the show will run smoothly. I would have asked Kathy Griffin if I was the producer.

Members SFK Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 She's too dangerous. I like Regis, I just think the shine is off the whole "Regis!" thing. Someone mentioned Betty White, who is obviously St. Olaf's Woman of the Year. She made an appearance at last year's (or was it the year before?) Emmys and she rarely ever turns down job offers, she'd go to the opening of an envelope. But I think she's too big for the Daytime Emmys right now, and honestly she's probably not that interested in yet another hosting gig, she has poor vision and it makes her nervous having to rely on cue cards and prompters..

Members Jonathan Posted May 19, 2010 Members Share Posted May 19, 2010 You're right. Julie Chen would've been a logical choice for CBS. They could've plugged Big Brother and even had Jeff and Jordan announce a category since they did a stint on B&B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
