Tom Bergeron is AWESOME!!!

Tom Bergeron, host of "Dancing with the Stars" and "America's Funniest Home Videos", has a new book that he's plugging on his Facebook profile (I just added him as a friend...hope he responds and confirms). I just wanted to note how awesome he is. He is a PERFECT guy to host game shows. He's funny and able to really be a master of ceremonies, but he is still able to keep control of the program and be serious when need be. For example, when he was host of "Hollywood Squares" for six years (see the connection to game shows finally), he was able to adequately ask questions and soothe nervous contestants, yet still handle himself appropriately and "control" sometimes wild celebrities. At the same time, when Marie Osmond had her memorable fainting moment on "Dancing", he was able to go from being the humorous funnyman to the serious ceremonies master during a truly serious moment. He didn't freak out of anything. I saw him in an interview once and he said, because he's hosting both "Dancing with the Stars" and "America's Funniest Videos" regularly, he doesn't plan on hosting another show regularly anytime soon, but, if there was a game show that truly needed to be hosted, he is DEFINITELY the guy to do it!!! He's AWESOME!!!
