ABC wants Ryan Seacrest to replace Regis Philbin. Larry King says he wants a shot at the job. “I would get a kick out of that. I would sit in for him for a few weeks. I would get a kick out of that. I would do that in a minute.”
ABC may replace Regis Philbin with a female. A source tells AOL, "For some time they have been unofficially testing out potential replacements on the show. Neil Patrick Harris, Anderson Cooper and even Kelly's husband, Mark, have filled in yet on-one was as good as Regis."
One of Kelly's friends says, "The incredible success that the 'Today' show is having with Kathie Lee and Hoda is a model everyone is trying to copy. Kelly has a ton of girlfriends and is totally open to the idea of sitting next to a woman every morning. Plus, this way you are not trying to replace a legend but rather take the show in a different direction."
Anderson Cooper, Tom Bergeron, Al Roker, Katie Couric, Jeff Probst and Ricky Gervais are all being mentioned as replacements for Regis. TMZ claims Reege told Kathie Lee he was leaving before he told Kelly Ripa.
