Hoda then chimed in and said that Kathie Lee would be “really good” on the show because it would be very unlikely that she would be “sucking face in a hot tub,” adding that Kathie Lee would “hold all these men at bay and you would make them romance you.”

“Earn me, baby!” Kathie Lee joked as Hoda responded, “You would bring romance back and that’s what we need!”

Kathie Lee then teased that she would consider doing the show under one condition: “It would have to be completely different. We’d have to make them [the men] much younger.”

“The Golden Cougar!” Jenna joked.
