BREAKING NEWS: Bye Rege! Philbin to Exit Talk Show

In a surprise announcement this morning on his hit daytime talk show, Regis Philbin announced today that this would be the last year for him as host of Live with Regis & Kelly.

“I don’t want to alarm anybody … but this will be my last year on the show,” he said. “There is a time that everything must come to an end for certain people on camera, especially certain old people.”

Philbin, who has hosted the show for 28 years,  said his last show would be sometime toward the end of summer.

Bye, Rege.  It was a great run.   So now…who will replace him?  Let the speculation begin.
