Howie Mandell to Replace the Hoff
NBC is planning on putting Howie Mandel in David Hasselhoff’s place at the judges table for the hit “Got Talent’ show.
Most of you will remember Howie from the ‘Deal or No Deal’ game show in which people opened suitcases for a million dollars.
“As you know, Howie was a big part of our schedule for the last several years with ‘Deal or No Deal,’ and we thought he did a phenomenal job,” Gaspin told AccessHollywood.com and other reporters following the panel. “If you think about an expertise, Howie has had a Las Vegas show for years and he constantly performs in Las Vegas. So we actually though — not only is he a great communicator, but he’s actually an expert.”
The Hoff announced, he’d be leaving the show to start his own television venture.
The Hoff is Hospitalized - Again

Did it look something like this?
TROUBLED actor DAVID HASSELHOFF was admitted to hospital on Friday after suffering a seizure, according to reports.
Gossip website RadarOnline.com claims the Baywatch star’s daughter, HAYLEY, called emergency services when her father fell ill.
The actor was reportedly rushed to Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center by ambulance for treatment.
Hoff’ss neighbour, named only as Christian, tells the website: “I asked one of the paramedics how David was doing and he told me his eyes were rolling back into his head, he was drooling and that he’d had a seizure.
“This isn’t the first time this has happened to him.”
A spokesperson for the L.A. City Fire Department confirms: “Paramedics were called to (a house) in Encino for medical aid. Paramedics arrived at approximately 11:51 am and later transported the patient a nearby hospital.”
The 57 year old, who has a long history of alcoholism, had allegedly been drinking in the past two days and saw one of his personal doctors on Wednesday (25Nov09) after returning from a trip to Canada.
The Knight Rider star was admitted to rehab in October amid reports he accidentally hit a doctor during a booze binge.
He has also been hospitalized on two separate occasions this year, reportedly suffering from alcohol poisoning.

David Hasselhoff
David Hasselhoff is back in the hospital. Reason: too much booze.
According to RadarOnline.com, paramedics were called to the former Baywatch star’s home in Encino, Calif., on Sunday.
The America’s Got Talent judge — who often appears loopy on the hit reality series — recently wrapped taping and allegedly began tying one on to celebrate. The Hoff’s poison: vodka.
The 57-year-old actor, an admitted “recovering alcoholic,” was at home with his 17-year-old daughter Hayley, who called 911. She was the one who shot the sad video of her father drunkenly eating a hamburger on the floor in 2007.
“You need to promise me you’re not going to drink alcohol tonight,” she said in the shot, which was a wakeup call for Hasselhoff, or so he said at the time.
The hospitalization is the second one in five months.
