AKA... Ryan Seacrest vs. Tom Bergeron vs. Jeff Probst...

Indeed.

Most of them don't even actually... host. Just exposition pieces. :hahaha:

Is there a host for The Amazing Race?

Maybe they're trying to find more ways of giving Emmys to that show.

Phil Keoghan.

But he usually just stands on the finish mat or explains chalenges. He's awesome though.

I'm all for this, as long it's actually an elaborate ruse for sniping.

I like Phil, but he doesn't do a whole lot. Just explains things. Jeff actually gets involved during challenges (by telling people when they're sucking it up) and calling people out if need be during tribal. So... might as well give it to him right now!
