Good for him. That said, he is the most low-energy game show host I have ever seen. When my daughter was first born, we didn't have much to do, so we would watch daytime TV and his hosting on Let's Make a Deal is just terrible (if he's still doing it). It sounded like he was bored and didn't want to be there every episode.
Sorry, I had to rant about Wayne Brady for a second.
Did you just call Wayne Brady a bitch??
No, no choking will be happening.
I wonder if it's just bad direction? Wayne Brady is one of the funniest people I've seen on TV - but I haven't seen him hosting anything. So it can't be him. It has to be someone directing him.
He has a certain energy. I'd call it smooth energy.
It's fantastic, but smooth energy doesn't work for game shows.
Yeah, he was really funny on Whose Line, but wow is he awful as a game show host. I don't know why, but he is terrible.
Agreed. He can sing jokes on the spot and dance anyone into a corner if left to his own devices. Bad acting isn’t coming from him. It would have to be stamped out by someone else
I saw one episode, but now that you mention it, yeah that's the vibe I got as well. It felt like he was trying to emulate Howie, but it might have just been really boring.
