Is any of these guys the one? Live! With Kelly has tapped several more guest co-hosts as the show continues to search for a permanent replacement for Regis Philbin. Joining co-host Kelly Ripa for the first time will be Dancing with the Stars professional dancer and Season 13 finalist Derek Hough on Dec. 5 and actor Jonah Hill on Dec. 6. Additionally previous guest co-hosts Jerry O’Connell and Josh Groban will return for an encore on Nov. 25 and from Dec. 7-9, respectively.
TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.


does anyone really care who will be the new co-host.
Anyone but Mark.
They should have paid Regis what he wanted and got rid of the camera hog. I will watch this show as much as the Kardashians. Once they get a replacement (which they NEVER WILL), and once Kris Hump. is off the show, WE ARE DONE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD!!! BAD MISTAKES!!!!!!! NEIL PARTICK HARRIS OR BUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Funny, classy, AND RAN THE SHOW!!!! NEVER MISSED A BEAT!!!!!
I like Mark. He’s be great I like them 2 together…
Not really! but if I had to chosse I would love to see John Stamos get a try at it!
Sorry, I meant to spell choose!
I love Kelly! I miss Regis. I think Michael (the football player) is a great co-host. He is warm, smart,entertaining and nice looking. And, very important…there is good chemistry between him and Kelly. My second choice is Neil Patrick Harris for all the same reasons.
Agree 100%! The next co-host should be Michael Strahan!
I would like Michael Strahan to become the new co-host. He is
adorable and very smart, likable and they have good chemistry
together. Please select him. The others have been nice, but
Michael is outstanding! Thanks for your time, Gilman.
Remember – consider Michael Strahan!!!
I like Michael Strahan I think they work well together they play off each other’s words Michael is funny makes Kelly laugh’s
Keeps me watching so let’s go MICHAEL.
Michael Strahan…Kelly & Michael have AMAZING CHEMISTRY…MICHAEL has my VOTE….We need a Fresh Look & Michael is the MAN!!!
I agree, initially I almost decided not to watch the show, but I found him to be charming, and quite4 frankly the best co-host to rival Neil Patrick Harris, yet!
I hope the new co-host is none of the above! Blah. It has to be someone charismatic. I’d love some eye candy like John Stamos or someone like Pierce Brosnan…sexy, distinguished and classy.
Finding a new male co-host will be easy. The hard part is still having to tolerate Kelly Ripa without Regis.
I agree!! Liked Michael Buble’
michael buble is an absolute delight! kelly and michael are a perfect match. they act as they’ve been with each other for years. also, kelly should sit on her original seat. –your best side!
Neil Patrick Harris, Anderson Cooper and Alec Baldwin, please. Oh, and did I mention Neil Patrick Harris???
Come on, ABC. Please don’t screw this up.
Why on heaven’s earth would NPH do a daytime talkfest? He can’t relocate to NYC because of his TV show. Cooper already has a daytime talk show (or haven’t you been watching?). Alec Baldwin doesn’t have the patience to do a daily show.
I agree. Neil Patrick Harris is the perfect co-host. He’s bright. He’s funny. He’s articulate. He’s interesting. He’s multi-talented. He has an interesting life and does interseting things, so he has something to contribute. I can’t think of a single person who would come even close to filling his shoes. PERFECT!!!
I think Mario Lopez would be great! He did really well today. But why are they choosing Co-hosts that already have other commitments and busy lives?
I agree Mario Lopez would be a good cose.I think they all have busy lives but they must have said they could do it.
How about Tony Danza. He’s fun and down to earth.
Nooooooo!!!! I certainly would NOT tune in to see this guy day after day.
Please don’t replace Regis with Jerry Seinfeld, Neil Patrick Harris or Alec Baldwin. They are insulting, hooked on themselves, and not very good actors. I also don’t think that they would be very good with the funny skits that they have on the show. One of my first choices would be Anderson Cooper.
Seinfeld? No way would he do it or would they hire him. As for the others, see comments above.
Jerry Seinfeld gets really old really, really fast. Boring!!!
Stuck up. So is his wife. Rude. Ignorant. Can’t IMAGINE listening to him and Kelly for an hour. Thinks he’s better than everyone. Saw him on Anderson Coopers new show. Him AND his wife think they are something. She needs to keep cooking her stupid spinach brownies, and they need to bring REGIS BACK!!!!!!!!! They made a “HUGE” mistake! “HUGE”!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem here is Anderson Cooper already has his own talk show, or he would be great!
I nominate David Conrad, aka “That guy from Ghost Whisperer” to be the permanent co-host.
The replacement for Regis needs to be different but still have the “gentleman” ways of Regis. eg. pulling out Kelly’s or female co-host’s chair; opening doors for women, etc. Things that a good majority of women still admire & appreciate from their man. He would have to be fun like Regis & noticeably having fun on the show. He can’t be a whiner or constantly interrup guests. No “umms” or uhhs” or “you know” in every other sentence like a lot of talk show people do. PLUS HE WOULD HAVE TO PUT A CAN W/HOLE IN LID THAT KELLY OR HE CAN PUT $1 IN EVERY TIME SHE SAYS “UMMMM” OR “UHHH”. Give the money to a charity when the can is full. My vote goes to JIMMY FALLON. He’s already said he would love the opportunity to do it when he was a co-host a few weeks ago. He’s nice to look at; fun to listen to & just a good all round kinda guy. I think he’d be a great co-host with Kelly. At least give him a shot at it. Then have everybody vote on their 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice.
Jimmy Fallon? Really? Funny guy but I don’t think he’s well rounded enough. The show needs a cosmopolitan guy like Regis. I have to keep coming back to Neil Patrick Harris.
There is no one out there to replace Reg, but you need to find someone who is bored with Kelly. That’s the only couple worth watching.As she is trying to take control, she is teeing too hard & just not funny.:(
I think Ted (don’t know last name) the guy from Love Boat, Married With Children, and Hope and Faith. He has been around. he is great in everything, he is older (eye candy for my generation) they have a chemistry. Who doesn’t love him?
You no longer have to look for a new co-host, you already found him.
Neil Patrick Harris is perfect He fits right in.
Please keep looking can’t stand Neil P Harris…….Seriously!
You have to admit – - Regis is one of a kind and will not be replaced, however, I had such a good time watching Neil Patrick Harris co-host with Kelly last week that I laughed the whole week long. Not only is NPH funny, he’s smart as well. My vote goes to Mr. Harris as Regis’s replacement.
NO NO NO – NOT NPH!!!!!! Mario Lopez fits with Kelly!!!! Mario, I’m rooting for you!!!!!
I am just loving Neil Patrick Harris as Kelly’s guest co-host. They’re just so in synce with one another; compaptible. They make me laugh nonstop. I am hoping that this will become a permanent partnership!!!!!! “The Kelly and Neil Show”.
I wish it were still Live With Regis and Cathy Lee Gifford! I think John Stamos would do a great job, and I hope Kelly considers
it!
I think Niel Packtric Harris should be the one.
Agreed there’s no one out there who can replace Regis. Jimmy Fallon would be good, but why would he, given his own late-night show? I suppose he could “phone it in” like Regis did.
Why didn’t they just negotiate a reasonable contract with Regis in the first place? Then they wouldn’t have to deal with this mess.
the best choice would be Tom Bergeron–Mr. Philbin even recommended him!! Just DON’T pick Ripa’s husband—-there is no way I would watch the “Mark and Kelly” show!!!!
No one can replace Regis, I miss him so much…..the only two that
can come close to Regis but not replace him, he is irreplaceable,
would be Howie Mandel or the gorgeous Jimmy Fallon….. Sure do
miss Regis, and Kelly don’t talk too much, let your guest co-host
talk a little!!!!
So far I feel Neil Patrick Harris and Kelly Ripa have chemistry. It seems she is so comfortable with him. He is intelligent, has a great sense of humor, and seems at ease with Kelly. I enjoy watching them both this week.
Kelly and Neil Patrick Harris are great together. He is my choice so far. They have good chemistry.
Neil Patrick Harris should be the new cohost
I love Kelly and I think she will be able to keep the show going, saying that; I hope whomever picks or chooses her co hosts will pick interesting people..eg Anderson Cooper or someone of that caliber who knows what ‘guest host’ means. I thought Mr. Harris, overpowered and took over the show and I did not like him at all as the role of co-host. If he was permanent, I would no loner watch the show. I have watched Regis Show for years as so many thousands have and I wish Kelly the best but please give her a chance and choose more compatible hosts for her. Sincerely, Samie Pellegrine
I think Kelly is doing a wonderful job!!! I think Neil Patrick Harris should be her co-host. I love him. His personality just shines and they make a great team. When Regis was looking for a co-host, I wanted it to be Kelly and she has been very successful. I work everyday and I make sure Live with Kelly is taped everyday. Much success to Kelly and who ever she picks for her co-host. Hopefully Neil aka- NPH. Sincerely, Nancy Turbert
I would like to see Mike Row given a chance. I saw his name mentioned in an article as a possible replacement for Regis and I feel he should be given a chance. He is not as well known as the others and not into himself as much as a well known star.
I would love to see Neil Patrick Harris as the replacement for Regis. Kelly and him are so in tune with each other and they are truly funny. They also play off of each other in the same manner in which her and Regis did. If he was not he choice I would like to see Jimmy Falan have a shot at the job.
It should definitely be NPH. They have such chemistry together although I don’t think he’ll move to NY from California
