Summary: Who Wants Regis?
Review: All I can say is "WHO REALLY CARES?"

Is there anyone out there who really gives a bleep about the life of Regis Philbin?

Sign me, Desperate for Depth

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Who Want's to be Me?
Review: OK, I'm an all-out Who Wants To Be a Millionaire fan, so I expected to like this book. (Hey, don't expect to like a biography, and certainly not an autobiography, if you don't like the person it's about and you don't like their style.)

Judging by the style of the writing, I believe this book was written by Regis sitting down with a tape recorder and telling stories. If you like his stories on Live! you'll like this book. He tells of travel frustrations, chainsaw envy, celebrity troubles, and Millionaire success. The style of the writing is just like his speaking style: "I wanted a CHAINSAW! And no one took me SERIOUSLY!"

The book includes plenty of comments from Joy and the two Philbin daughters, excerpts from the Live! show, David Letterman Top Ten lists, etc. This is no War and Peace, but it's a good, fun read. Here's hoping it will give me some subjects to bounce off of Regis when I make it to that Millionaire seat.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Reege
Review: Ok...this book wasn't that terrible..but Reege seems self-centered and cocky....and the book wasn't that interesting. It was just Regis ranting and raving. But it kept me amused for a little bit....so I guess it was alright

Summary: Nothing here for trivia buffs
Review: Over the past few weeks "Live with Regis" has become a very enjoyable show to watch. It's so much kinder and more entertaining than the old show used to be. As my admiration for Regis, Michael Gelman and Art Moore have grown, I've thoroughly enjoyed reading Regis's new book and getting a glimpse at what goes on behind the scenes of a hit show. But the book includes much more about Regis and the struggles that he has managed to overcome. You go guy!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Nothing here for trivia buffs
Review: Regis is associated with the successful trivia show "Who Wants to be a Millionaire", but there is no trivia here. Perhaps Regis should read the book "Quizzing" which is a book with some great trivia questions and answers.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Who Wants To Be Me?
Review: Regis Philbin, one of America's most know figures in the television entertainment industry, has taken this book very high. In here, you can expect short, true stories that really do make you chuckle. These make Regis what he is. I do recommend this book! -John

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Who Want's to be Me?
Review: This book is fair. If you are a Regis follower and watch his LIVE show this book will be boring. He has told many of these stories on the air.

I like Regis, but I wanted to read something different from what we hear on his daily show.
