The main part of a game show host's role is to bond with the audience. The contestants come and go while the host is there every night (or day). Trebek, Sajak, and White all bond with an older audience. If Sony was looking to build an audience for the next ten or twenty years rather than hold on for the next five, now would be a good time to introduce younger hosts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
