Regis Philbin announced Tuesday that he will be stepping down as co-host of Live with Regis and Kelly in late summer or fall of this year. Hoping to take over the role of the talk-show’s gruff, masculine point of view: Joan Rivers.

Regis is 79 and has been on television for 50 years. He’s worked in the medium so long he refers to Larry King as “the new kid.”
