Do you think The Price is Right will be the same without Bob Barker? I personally think it will go down hill soon after he retires. The game wont be the same without him.

I don't think it was such a great show to begin with. It's completely based on chance there is no skill involved and it is shameless marketing/product placement.

Oh, there is alot of skill involved. But it really depends on which game you get. On the ones where it's pick 1 of the 2 prices, pure chance. But guessing the prices of mutiple items from lowest to highest DOES take skill. You have to know prices. Hole in 1 (or 2) takes skill. Lots of skill games on there. Watch the show! I'm gonna miss Bob. It won't be the same without him.

I think that he will be missed terribly but he deserves to enjoy a little retirement time. I think that people will still enjoy being on the show and people at home will still enjoy playing along with the contestants.

I thought he deserved to retire years ago. He said he thought about it for last 10 yrs but loved it so much he couldnt.

I saw that on the news the other day! I agree, I think it will go downhill. He WAS that show. I know I wont watch it if they get a new person.

A lot of people will miss him, but if they get the right person it will be okay.

Yeah it will be okay..but not the same. I will probably still watch it but not as much as now.

Teh poor man needs a break. I know he loves the show and we all love him, but he's ready to rest now. I think that the next host has big shoes to fill but who knows, maybe he/she will be even better!

Aw man, bob barker rules! It'll be sad to see him go. Oh well, I suppose he's been there long enough! lol. I do think it will go downhill though.
