After almost 30 years looks like perenially chipper host Mary Hart is ready to move on after the upcoming season wraps.

The leggy host,who joined the show in ’82 when ET was pretty much the only kind of show of it’s kind on the air, says she originally only planned to stay for three years.

The show is almost unrecognizeable from it’s early days, when there where no famewhores on reality TV shows being branded as “celebrities” (when ET refered to Evan Marriot of Joe Millionaire fame as a “superstar” without irony, I knew the show had jumped the shark).

Rumour is Mary and her ET overlords couldn’t reach an agreement in contract negotiations, so she’s decided to pull an Oprah/Tyra take her collection of red carpet gowns and go elsewhere. 

Billy Bush and Access Hollywood better watch their backs.
