What an uninspired choice: SEACREAST as co-host with Kelly RIPA

[UTUSN]

I have never seen anything he does - American Idol, nothing - so why should I have an opinion. The most I know are the "jokes" Kathy GRIFFIN makes about his sexuality. That said, both Kelly and he proceeded to make jokes about his sexuality:

In the set-up to the reveal, Kelly said that the big surprise/mystery was being resolved, that she didn't want to give it away so it would be "he or she" and repeated "he or she" a couple of times. Then when his subject was how he had to keep it a secret he told his closest friends he was going to tell them a big secret and their guesses were: "Getting married. Having a baby. Coming out of the closet."

So, well, this program has been on as background for me for 15 years, so I can have an opinion (uninspired choice)?!1




*******Bwah-hah, posted this in GD but was able to self delete before getting flamed. And misspelling the dude's surname complements my own clueless opinion.

1. He is the hardest working person in the business

Other than that, whatevs.

3. Agreed. He is relentless in his pursuit of work and new projects.

Got to admire his work ethic and delivery.

2. Seacrest is the "Annointed one" (by the late Dick Clark)

So it seems a "given" now that he's the go-to "stick-figure" on these shows. He's what Kato Kaelin aspired to be.

While I have nothing against him personally, I agree that there is no chemistry between the two, so it does appear to be a very predictable, uninspired choice.

Truth in advertising, I have so rarely seen even five minutes of this show the past many years, that I suppose I too should not have an opinion.

4. I was hoping that SEAQUEST would be co-host

5. Only the first season please.

SeaQuest -- the below-the-waterline-Star Trek -- is another great show destroyed by network execs who wanted it to be more youthful and sexy.

6. He is on a much higher plane than she is.

Which doesn't take much.

7. I agree. I think they are too similar...

ever smiling, oh so smooth. It's not that I don't like him. I do think he's very Dick Clarkish. I just think your term "uninspired" is a very fitting description.
