Mario Lopez to become host of 'Extra'

Categories: TV Biz

Mariolopez_lMario Lopez — the Saved by the Bell alum who’s enjoyed a career resurgence thanks to stints on Nip/Tuck and Dancing With the Stars — will take over as host of the weekday syndicated show Extra beginning Sept. 15. Lopez had been serving as a correspondent and co-host for Extra’s weekend edition since January 2007. Extra co-host Dayna Devon will become a special correspondent, and Mark McGrath will go back to making music with Sugar Ray, which is expected to release another album in early 2009. Extra begins its 15th season this fall.

    A little goes a long way when you are talking about Mario.

  • Jason

  • Scott

    How come whenever you see a picture of this douchebag smiling, it looks like his tongue is ready to fall out of his mouth?

  • Slater Gator

  • Kanuck

    demotion for Dayna Devon

  • amya

    The real news would be if you could tell us why the “shake-up”. The real reason-you know is Mario dating one of the producers, are the ratings in a downfall, you know, the real good story.
    THE TRUTH, THE DIRT, & THE AMERICAN WAY!!!

    Isn’t he the same @sshole who was caught on tape boasting about ‘I just beat up a homeless guy’ or something to that effect? Classy, indeed…

  • Sunny

    Oh dear. McGrath was pretty bad, but Dana Devon is OK. I like her.
    Mario ? oh dear gawd, what a bland blank head with a permanent smiley face. He’s about as edgy [and exciting] as a smiley face, come to think of it.

  • Karen

    It’s typical. The older ones get replaced by a younger more buffed up version…….so sad!!!

  • jenny

    Okay, I was open-minded when this whole thing played out and was willing to give Mario a chance (even though he grates on my every last nerve) because I really love the show. Or did anyway when Dayna was host. Now I refuse to watch it. I have switched to a different show altogether because I miss Dayna. Mario is so annoying. I’m sorry! You screwed up NBC!

  • Jennifer

    what happened to Dayna and Mark?? Mario sucks…

  • Mary

    Sorry to say I am switching to “The Insider!” Mario is just a little to full of himself!!

  • joe shmoe

    Was a faithful Access/eXtra junkie. Watched the new show for about a week. Couldn’t take it anymore. Crappy format, crappy host. (I have better words but they would get deleted). Would probably feel the same way even if ML was in his birthday suit. Found something else to watch.

  • MCH

    Let’s see… synonym for the new EXTRA! ?
    B-O-R-I-N-G.

  • whysaenz

    Who cares about Mario. He is trying to be a Mexican Ryan Seacrest. He is so full of himself. I will not watch Extra.
