Kelly

I love Kelly Ripa - I really do. But I'm afraid without Regis my favorite morning show is just not the same.

From the very beginning I've watched Regis as he came to feel like a favorite uncle to me. I followed his various adventures and misadventures and laughed at his human foibles and self-deprecating sense of humor. I found him to be the kind of person I would love to hang out with, to be a member of my family, and to be able to go to when I needed help. I adored him.

Throughout the years I saw him go through many co-hosts and Kelly is one of the best he's had. She's cute and funny and witty and kind and again, someone I'd be happy to share a girls-night-out with anytime. But without Regis, somehow she's just not the same. Actually, she is the same - its just that something's missing on the show and I'm not sure they'll be able to find it again.

Because the truth is there probably isn't another Regis out there. Because if they were easy to find they would already be busy. He is a rare one and I miss him. I may stop recording the show altogether soon....

You're correct as usual.
You can't replace Regis any more than you can replace Andy Rooney.
Both are one of a kind. Or at least "was " however you want to put it. LOL
