As I watched the final MDA video tribute to Jerry Lewis again, I realized what was missing. Over the years, Jerry joined his guests on stage, interacted with them, acted silly with them and interacted with the kids showing his love and concern. That did not happen this year. I saw only bits and pieces but felt something missing. If they retired Jerry they should retire his telethon and find a new updated way to raise money for this worthy cause in this next century.

If they continue, they should start now to find a new host. Someone personable like (maybe) Jack Black, or some other comedian (Jim Carrey??) to add some life, spunk, and interaction. The victims of this disease deserve better, just as Jerry did.

Jim Carrey would be the closest to a Jerry Lewis we have today (the style of comedy).
