SeaJoke to Replace Larry King?

FishbowlLA today quells some of those Ryan Seacrest-to-CNN rumors.

Mayrav Saar reports that sources close to Seacrest confirmed the American Idol host is in talks with CNN to take over for Larry King at 9pmET, but the source also says, "I don't think it's going to happen."

King just signed a new deal that will keep him with CNN into 2011. The deal, however, does not guarantee King will stay as 9pmET host of Larry King Live.

this is a joke, right? I mean, CNN is already a pathetic excuse for a "news" network, but come on....do they want to finish last in the ratings?

I don’t see what the problem is. If CNN wants to boob it up and put an inexperienced fellow on air and ends up losing viewers, then that is OK with me. The sooner they go off the air, the better.

Larry King is the most talentless man on television. I don’t see how anyone could be worse.

Savage’s impression of him is priceless.

One time I heard Larry King as a dude with no arms and legs, “are you envious of people with feet and hands?”

What a d-bag.

Well, at least Seacrest will be able to remember which
Beatles are alive even when he’s talking to Paul and Ringo!

Seacrest is the new Dick Clark. He’s all over the place, and non-threatening. Very hard-working and I think, likeable. At least he’s current.

At any rate, as Toskrin said, how could anybody be worse than Larry “so have you ever used the internet” King.
