File photo Regis Philbin gives Kathie Lee Gifford a 'titanic' hug. Oh, Kathie Lee, we hardly knew ye.
Life goes on in the world of television, however.
The network suits will choose someone eventually, but judging from network programming choices of the past, viewers probably have better ideas about who should sit next to Reege. So we're giving you, the reader, a chance to play TV programmer. In 50 words or less, tell us who should be the next Kathie Lee and why. Also, like all programmers, you will stay behind the scenes, so don't nominate yourself. Postmark no later than March 12.
