Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

Good for him. That said, he is the most low-energy game show host I have ever seen. When my daughter was first born, we didn't have much to do, so we would watch daytime TV and his hosting on Let's Make a Deal is just terrible (if he's still doing it). It sounded like he was bored and didn't want to be there every episode.

Sorry, I had to rant about Wayne Brady for a second.

I saw one episode, but now that you mention it, yeah that's the vibe I got as well. It felt like he was trying to emulate Howie, but it might have just been really boring.

Edit: Seems you can't say b*tch. TIL.

I wish he were "make more episodes of Let's Make a Deal"-sexual. Conversely, Drew Carey is quite punctual but sucks as a game show host.
