No offense to Mike, but he did not know how to be the star of the Price Is Right. He rushed through that It's In The Bag win all the way to the point, where there was no drama. If it was still Trina winning and Bob Barker hosting, Bob would have slowed down to build the drama with that win. Mike had told the audience to quiet down for the Clock Game, then three seconds later, he was telling them to wish the lady good luck. Also: "You are going to the showcase showdown." Mike, she already won the showcase showdown and she was going to the showcase, later on at the end of the show. Bob Barker always seemed to have natural talent at being the star of the show even without any Price Is Right experience, let alone thirty-five years. Mike Richards should just stick with producing game shows because being the star of a game show just isn't his strength.

I'm glad Richards didn't get the TPIR hosting gig and, like they say, what goes around comes around. Seems like he was a bit of an a-hole and threw people under the bus to get ahead. It caught up to him and now his TV days are in the rear view mirror.

Trying to put bias aside, it wasn’t horrible but he wasn’t great. Someone else nailed it when they said It’s like he knows what to do but doesn’t execute well. It felt forced and just not like a natural fit.
@milesmorris93332 жыл бұрын
From the recent news about him, we can conclude he's a horrible person. That's not the reason why I thought this audition was bad, however. Roger Dobkowitz gave the perfect description of his performance, basically a college student doing his best impression of a game show host. He knows what he's doing but he's not doing it well. I could tell just from the way he entered on stage that this wasn't going to be very good.

Being a successful game show host requires that most ineffable quality: charisma. It’s something you either have or you don’t. No matter how much “Toastmasters”-style training a guy like Richards likely availed himself of, it can’t be learned or acquired. The good hosts naturally had it and honed it, but Richards honestly and unbiasedly lacks it.

He lacks the stage presence to carry the show and it feels limp and empty as a result. I don't want to use the word "robotic" but look at the way he breezes through the win on It's In The Bag in this tape. There's no life to it at all.

@thewvnetwork2 жыл бұрын
Drew has improved a great deal...Bob left HUGE shoes to fill and it did take him the entire season to forget about trying to be like Bob and making the show his own. There were also tons of games to memorize rules for, and there were times I felt like Drew was sort of like a college student who blew off the homework but then showed up to class and discovered he had to read his homework aloud and just made something up. LOL Watching the newer post-COVID episodes, its actually hard to imagine Bob Barker hosting it anymore. The sets are different, and really, people are different. They just aren't as classy as they were for most of Bob's run. As far as Mike, I agree he did do better than Drew in his earliest days, but still, Mike was never cut out to be the host of anything. He was meant to be a behind the scenes kind of guy, until he screwed that up now he's meant to be a McDonald's Drive Thru kind of guy. ;)
