...but if rumours of him hosting a reprised version of the absolute classic gameshow the Crystal Maze ("Get out! Get the crystal!) are true, I'd have to say he would be an excellent candidate for a very challenging hosting role.
Imagine the possibilities of a Brand new (very drole...) Crystal Maze with all the advancements in television. But, let's be honest, they tend to cock these remakes up. So, here are my top tips:
Stick to the same format - We don't want to see teams competing against each other; No families, only grown-ups; There has to be the Crystal Dome finish; There absolutely has to be the crappy prize of a Crystal in a box. etc
Do not, under any circumstances - Try to include CGI into the challenges or surroundings! Large, semi-realistic sets are a must, not computerised worlds filmed in front of a blue screen.
Zones: Aztec, Futuristic and Medieval were all winners. Ocean World was pants. A forth, equally brilliant world must be created.
Will Brand turn out to be a fantastic Richard O'Brien or a lame Ed Tudor-Pole? Either way I'm tuning in. I think this could be a proper Saturday/Sunday night winner!
Thoughts?

I'm really not a Russell Brand fan...

He shouldn't be allowed on TV full stop, he's about as funny as a broken leg, maybe two
Anything's better than Vernon Kay on Family Fortunes, right?
