Farewell Bob Barker

It is with GREAT sadness in my heart that I share the announcement that Bob Barker is RETIRING from The Price is Right.

From a Seattle Post Intelligencer article, here is a quote by Leslie Moonves, president and CEO of CBS Corporation.
"We knew this day would come, but that doesn't make it any easier," Moonves said in a statement. "Bob Barker is a daytime legend, an entertainment icon and one of the most beloved television personalities of our time."


June will be a sad sad time, and in terms of his further career in film and television, he does have a warning. (from the same article), "He said he'd take on a movie role if the right one came along, but filmmakers, take note: "I refuse to do nude scenes. These Hollywood producers want to capitalize on my obvious sexuality, but I don't want to be just another beautiful body.""


Signing out:
"Help control the pet population. Have your pets spayed or neutered."
