not that i dont like tom kennedy, i think he's great, but y wasnt barker hosting the night time

[Adam Nedeff]

For the life of me, I can't remember where I read this, but I recall reading that Bob refused to do a 5-per-week nighttime version because he thought it was overkill.

nice to have seen this show when i was 10 or so but then again wasn't this tom kennedy at his worst?????? imho he was all right but he definitely didn't fill the shoes of the great bob barker. :)

[Adam Nedeff]

Sadly, when asked, Tom expresses a similar opinion about his own performance, but I have to disagree, I think he did a fantastic job of making the show his own.

[Paul Reich]

I want to say right now that I think Tom did a great job hosting TPiR back in the day.

Drew may be the new host of the show, but in my opinion, if Drew had said no, Tom should have gotten it.

I liked Tom Kennedy on this and thought he was a good host. Of course Bob Barker is best associated with TPIR Tom does a fine job here and of course we have Johnny Olsen doing the announcing. Thanks for a nice reminder when Game Show Network was a good channel.

[John W Landry]

That reason would be a logical explanation as to why Bob Barker didn't host it.

[John W Landry]

Bob Barker did often steal the thunder from his TPIR contestants,that I must agree on.

[Dan Barker]

@crinos43, I don't think Tom would've done it, Tom is now 80 and was 75 at the time, he's retired.

[WhiteHatBobby]

One interesting thought:  Jim waited seemingly over two decades after the original format was guest-hosted by his brother Jack for this format. Earlier in the decade the Narz Boys flipped positions in hosting "Password Plus" when one was a guest.

Wow. 3 Strikes looks wierd to me with only 4 digits

[aviationwingnut]

Drew Carey is a 'trainwreck' as I read another poster calling him. I agree. He sucks as host of this show.

[YamatoCharm]

Kennedy is older than Bob Barker. Wouldn't happen. Just like Monty Hall isn't hosting Let's Make A Deal

[Linda Gimbert]

I like Drew Carey to replace Bob Barker then Tom Kennedy
