LOS ANGELES (AP) - Bob Barker endorsed his friend Rosie O'Donnell as a possible successor on "The Price Is Right," although the newly retired host isn't sure CBS wants a woman to take over the game show.
"I believe they're going to have a meeting with Rosie," Barker said backstage Friday night at the Daytime Emmy Awards, where he won his 19th trophy.
"She knows the show," he said. "There's no doubt in my mind she could do the show. Now, whether they want a lady host, I don't know. I've never heard that discussed. As far as I know, they've only auditioned men."
Barker said his friendship with O'Donnell goes back several years, when she had him as a guest on her old daytime talk show.
"She told me she loved `The Price Is Right' and wanted to host it one day," he recalled.
Among those mentioned as possible replacement hosts have been Todd Newton of the E! network, Mark Steines of "Entertainment Tonight," George Hamilton and John O'Hurley.
Barker retired last week at age 83 after 35 years of giving away vacations and cars on the hit CBS game show. But he said he may be back with some specials featuring vintage clips and guests.

Apparently, so does Dooj.
Suda, if I have more than one of something on the same line, it means think in the plural.

Actually, DEPP+ RICES + the price is. I wouldn't use Depp just for "the."
I don't recognize wasway's guitarist, but I'm going to guess "TJ Hooker" for the show.

You're working too hard on the last clue. Think more generically.

Only other word that comes to mind is grotesque.
Let's see He-Man, flex, steriods, iron pumper, beefy, beef cake
His face, but not his body; head shot
Still not getting it, but will ponder somemore.

Are any of these useable?
(Yes, the prodigal has returned....
