Regis Philbin was apparently serious about being tired of getting up so early in the morning. He says his next gig will be in primetime, writes Kimberly Potts.
The former daytime talk show host, who made his final appearance as co-host of Live With Regis and Kelly on November 18, is hatching an idea for a show that sounds like a family twist on America’s Got Talent.
We’re contemplating a show that is sort of a talent show, but it involves the whole family, Philbin, the original host of America’s Got Talent, told the New York Post. The show would be ‘a family competition, which is something new in our business. It’s going to be on prime time when it happens’.
Philbin, 80, is currently on a book tour to promote his memoir How I Got This Way, and also tells the Post he’s been approached about reviving the variety show format.
