He's short and sometimes snippy. But he's always metro to the core.

Whether he's talking about Simon's tight shirts or

manhandling the shirts of young, male contestants, the workaholic Dick Clark clone is bound to do stupid stuff this year.

Talk about here.

I called him that this weekend and someone told me I was being absurd.

How can anyone not see that he's clearly copying Dick Clark's career?

ETA: Best sig line EVER, Nigel Lies.

Try as I might, I can't help wanting to crawl into his lap and watch a movie about gladiators.

They seemed, at least for this episode, to be keeping him on the back-burner quite a bit. No ridiculous scenes of him chasing some sap down the street with a camera team or anything ...just yet. Makes me wonder if ...perhaps... they've caught on that he's really not as hip as that kiss with Terri Hatcher made him out to be.

I can't believe he tried to convince that girl that he was average height, not short. Everyone knows he is a midget. He has to get over that complex.

I am the real Ryan Seacrest. I smell good, I am of average height, I am at the epicenter of cool, and Teri Snatcher is my girlfriend. (Sorry, Maria.)

Bumping this thread to show some Ryan love. What does it say about this season that Ryan is looking like the best thing on the show? I plan to just enjoy his weekly twitting of Simon as we march toward Lakisha's ineveitable win.

I thought he wanted in Alaina's pants.

I know I do!! :woo

Nothing can ever top him boning the flamingo.

I want in Antoiletta's pants.

Completely agree. The most enjoyable part of the show for me is watching him make an ass out of himself or Simon. It's like an inappropriate and unnecessary ~*DaUgHtRy*~ mention; you know it's gonna happen every show.

The "sweetheart" fight last Tuesday made my night.

No, he wanted in Brandon's pants.

Here's a video of him flirting with Anderson Cooper. It's SO CUTE.

Was Ryan filling in for Larry King?

He's annoying, he's morphing slowly into Dick Clark, but he is suprisingly competent on that show. I expect him to be as orange as Tom Jones or Paul Anka but the time the finales rolls around.

Edited because Anka has no apostrophe...

I think Ryan is kind of hot for an orange man. He's got pretty teeth...a real turn on.

that might be difficult.....she doesn't seem to wear them very often.

I love how he tries to hard to deflect any suspicion of homosexuality.

Honey, please, just come out.

Watching AI Rewind and Seacrust was waaaaay more orange than now.

During the auditions I loved Seacrest. He is a master at keeping his cool when dealing with the freaks.

"Man, Simon is a *bleep* and Randy's a *bleep* drummer man, and Paula, well she's fine but she can *bleep* my *bleep* for all I care man."

"But you like me, right?"

The man's a genius, even if he is a giant tool.

I used to hate Ryan.... but I actually like him now. He's ballsy.
