"It has been an amazing 17 years, now seemingly gone by in a flash. But 17 years I will never, ever forget," Steines says.

Though he'll no longer appear on Entertainment Tonight, Steines won't be disappearing from TV. The Dubuque, Iowa native will host the talk show Home & Family, slated to premiere on the Hallmark Channel October 1.
