Regis Philbin has announced that he will be transitioning to three-day work weeks next year, relinquishing Live with Regis & Kelly hosting duties to guests on Thursdays and Fridays.
Huge fans of Regis that we are, our heart sank at this news, as we think this might be a subtle indication of failing health.

The man is like 110 years old. He needs some extra time for naps.
…more like a subtle indication that Kelly is a blood sucking attention whore leech. Can they get any orangeier? Yea, that's a word orangier rhymes with really really tan.
He's the new Bob Barker. Not alive anymore, just stuffed and held up with a very intricate system of strings and pulleys and motion sensored tape recordings. He's also like those dolls from the 80s whose eyes would close when they were laying down and open when you sat them up…man those things were creepy…almost as creepy as Regis…
Something touched Cord's cold, dark, heart. That's sweet. It kind of touched my cold, dark, heart.
Big deal, he already only works 4. Whats one less. Why do these "stars" have to announce everything.
Cooter may get really wasted this weekend. Hear the rest of the story at 6.
Aw…I don't watch that show anymore, but I love him.
I don't watch the show but have always liked Regis. I'm sure he's tired of that annoying Kelly Ripa bitch. I can't stand her!
That reminds me, does Dick Clark do the new years eve thing still? That's a great gig. Once a year. See Casey Casem was smart. If you don't want to retire completely, be on the radio. He could probably phone it in if he wanted to.
I don't think so. I remember when he had his stroke, Ryan Seacrest took over for him. I think he is going to be the one to take over for him once he is no longer able to do it. :-(
Ryan hosts and Dick sits there and looks pretty.
What does he use in his face? one can skate on it lol

Nooooo
I love Regis. I would definitely turn off it off if Ryan Seacrest took over.
This show doesn't get the credit it deserves.
Two very engaging and effervescent personality's.
Shows first 20 minutes is still one of best things on TV.
Funny and Hip without being malicious or arrogance.
KELLY RIPA is "Pardon my French" the SHIT and arguably the baddest WHITE WOMAN out right now?
No
Ck this and tell me I'm am wrong

Holla
No I am not a Overweight white woman from LONG ISLANDS or a "friend of Dorthy"
The fact that you used the word "effervescent" leads me to believe otherwise
No more Ryan Seacrest. How many shows is that guy on? On the bright side we'd get more Ryan jokes from Joel. The downside is I'd throw up everyday. Bonus, I may lose some weight.
Nothing is worth having to look at his mug anymore than I have to.
HAVEN'T WATCHED THE SHOW SINCE DITZY kelly ripa WAS HIRED AND WILL WATCH IT EVEN LESS NOW!
I don't watch the show, sine both of them appear to be egotistical and too loudmouthed. I wouldn't miss either one of them.
Ryan Seacrest isn't taking over for Regis, calm down. He just does the New Year's thing for Dick Clark.
I don't think it as to do with failing health, he still travels all over the place with his little cabaret show. His daughter lives in LA and is pregnant so he probably just wants to be able to go see his grandchild.
Poor Reege. Working with Ripa ripped him a newie.
I really wish that Jeanne would have capitalized Kelly Ripa and lowercased the rest. Now I feel like she's only mildly angry at Kelly.
I don't think it's a "subtle indication of failing health", it's that he's old as hell and needs to just chill out and do what regular senior citizens do.
Failing health? That's a leap if I ever read one. Maybe its a way to transition into whoever may replace him one day when he retires. Oh, this is a gossip website, my bad.
jeanne, how can you watch it less than never?
Geez is everyone like 15 years old on here? He just had bypass surgery and the guy is in his 60's of course he might need a little more time in his later years to rest. What a bunch of moaners and whiners…
He is another Dick Clark he looks very young for his age and he has been on TV since I was born in the 60's sooooo…. he is OLD end of story!
He is waaay older than 60…he's actually in his mid 70s…77 or so I believe.
Not only is he old and has had about l0 face lifts, but we have enough of him. Enough is Enough! He is so damn egotistical that he just won't quit even after having serious heart surgery. Regis, everyone is sick and tired of seeing you and you should have retired years ago. If you are so bored staying home, then find another hobby but get off T.V. You are getting too old and you know it and have had enough face lifts. They are not making you younger but you look like you belong in a wax museum.
Typo error. I meant he has about l0 face lifts and not only does he look any younger but, in fact, his face looks waxy.
what about his first two kids? How pathetic. He must have a heavy heart every time he says he has "two kids." He has to look in the mirror.
I like them both I will miss him.
Although Regis Philbin is only going to be on "Live" 3 days a week, he's still out on the circuit performing live along with his wife, Joy, and/or Susan Lucci. That leads me to believe that he's just tired of being a talk show host, not that he's retiring. If he does leave, I think the "Live" show should be canceled. Without the banter between Regis and Kelly, the show is only lukewarm at best.
that's the best news i've heard in a long time.
both regis and kelly are loud mouths, their show looks like it's produced my a third grader. our local station took them off last year and replaced them with the 700 club and that is what we watch now.
I love you Kelly and Regis
We love Regis and Kelly.
WELL, ITS ABOUT TIME!
Hey! To each his own! They have enough fans that they both "laugh all the way to the bank," as the old saying goes. What do you accomplish by all the nastiness?
I quit watching because they end every show with some hip hop group that couldn't carry a tune in a big bucket! On really bad days Howie is the guest host.
If Regis goes to 3 days a week, I doubt very seriously if Kelly Ripa can carry the show,no matter who the co-host is. She just does not have it and her stories are so uninteresting. I bet the ratings will fall big time.
I like Regis and wish him all the best…
Regis, please get lost as I am sick and tired of looking at you on T.V. You are in your 80's, have had several face lifts which are so obvious, yet you continue with your stupid shows with that dumb blonde. Can't you stay home just like an ordinary married man? Don't you like being home with your wife? There is a time in your life that you MUST RETIRE as people have had enough of you. If you have another face lift, you might as well go to a wax museum as there are just so many face lifts you can have without looking like a FREAK.
Your all nothing but nasty son of b's.
They do a good show. You are all a bunch of creeps..
Why is everyone so bitter and negative? They have both worked hard and if you don't like them - don't watch. I enjoy them but when there is someone on I don't care for I turn the channel - big deal.
I couldn't believe how the other day, the guest co-host asked Regis if this was his first Grandchild & he said "yes". I thought he has two other children by another marriage and a Grandson already.
