Title: If you could create the perfect host
Post by: edholland83 on June 23, 2003, 03:19:22 AM

This seemed like an interesting question when I thought of it
anyway,

If you could create the ultimate game show host consisting of 5 characteristics of other hosts whose would you choose:

Personality
Charisma (Contestant Interaction)
Sense of Humor
Show Presence (How much they mean to a show)
Hosting Style

Here's my choices:

Personality - Gene Rayburn
Charisma - Chuck Woolery
Sense of Humor - Bill Cullen
Show Presence - Bob Barker
Hosting Style - Bob Barker

This was just an example, so everybod knock yourself out

I once asked this kind of question through personal e-mail to some of my online buddies, but never through a game show group--until now! My idea of the perfect GS host could have these traits:

The good looks of _____
The personality of _____
The humor of _____
The 'smarts' of _____
The romantic nature of _____
The 'coolness' of _____
The enthusiasm of _____
The 'fashion sense' of _____
The talent of _____
and The friendliness of _____

Now, let's see.....if I put together:

Good looks: Wink Martindale
Personality: Tom Kennedy
Sense of humor: Richard Dawson
'Smarts:' Allen Ludden
Romantic nature: Peter Marshall
'Coolness:' Alex Trebek
Enthusiasm: Gene Rayburn
'Fashion sense:' Dick Clark
Talent: Bert Convy
and Friendliness: Monty Hall

With all those traits, I come up with..... (drum roll) Jim Peck!

Can some of YOU do better than THAT?

Cordially,
