I would predict that when Bob appears, it'll likely be during the showcase showdown. If Drew is going to let Bob have the reins, the Showcase Showdown is a good spot, as Bob is unlikely to steal Drew's thunder, as IMO they both handle the Showcase Showdown in the same manner.

Wow, I don't think I could disagree with that statement more strongly -- Drew is usually pretty bad at hosting the Showcase Showdowns.

The only thing i really dislike about Drews Showcase Showdowns is that sometimes he just shouts the numbers of the wheel out over and over again... 80! 80! 80! 80! 80! 80! 80! 80! 80!
You people make me sick.  Every last one of you.

I was not being sarcastic and no one not even bob and former moddles can escape his/er past.

If I was being sarcastic I would have said Janice and Kathleen.
The thing  about history is, it always repeats itself (lol). :-D

Even still, Claudia and Heather aren't on speaking terms with Bob and the show either, so they will likely never set foot in the studio again.

I did't say Heather as model #2 I said Nikki as my choice.
Still It'd be nice to see all of them again

Well, she didn't leave on good terms, either.  In fact, she was fired.

The old models are not coming back, period, even if they weren't fired. You might as well stop trying.

Well actually Gena did come back for 5000th show , so she and Chantel could come back.
Just a thought though.

But Anitra wasn't fired, she was the only one of the "old models" as you call them (Janice, Dian, Holly & Kathleen) that Bob didn't fire.  It would be great to see at least someone from The Good Old Days of Price!

It's hard to stay on topic when people work so hard to derail it...
I'll put this in here, but I didn't want it to overshadow the more interesting topic of specials. Earlier in the show Mike and Beth talked about Jenny McCarthy's appointment to The View and it leads to Mike talking about her appearance on Price. Mike says that he and the staff mulled over whether or not to have her on the show because of the controversy that follows her. They ultimately decided to have her because she's "a great advocate for what she believes in." Now, Mike didn't specify exactly what he meant by "what she believes in" and what "belief" of her's that he's addressing, but that could certainly be taken the wrong way.

Yeah I would like it if Gena, Anitra, and Chantel would come back. DYK that Anitra is a photographer now, so she could take pictures of said event.
As for the reveal, Bob should walk in w/Chantel and Gena, then Anitra come out of the clam with Bob's silver mic.

I will repeat myself again; the former models are not coming back!  They have moved on with their lives and probably don't wish to ever return to the studio and/or the show for whatever reason.  I know Gena returned for the 5,000th show during the credits, but that is a completely different ball game.  Also, when Bob called the former models "disgusting" during one interview a few years ago, I'm sure that would make them never want to be associated with Bob and/or the show.

Maybe this will sound rude, but maybe she didn't stay on the show long enough to be fired...

He called Janice, Kathleen, Holly and Dian Disgusting, not Anitra,Gena,Chantel,Nikki,Heather,and Claudia.
So,It is nice that at least one person wants to see old models besides me.
