I was vaugely aware of Regis when I was a very small kid, since my grandmother was a huge Joey Bishop fan. Then I was aware of his LA morning show for a while. Since then I have known him primarily as the host of a short lived game show, and a regular guest on Dave. Assuming he shows up on Dave from time to time as long as he is able, this change will have no effect on his profile as far as I am concerned. -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
