Bob was a What's My Line panelist here at least once.

Ghislaine Alexander, perhaps? She wasn't a guest panelist on our What's My Line in the traditional sense, but she sat in for a round after being a contestant.

Possible. I'm only aware of US shoes, but if you open it up to the UK, there are more than the few we have found so far.

I vaguely remember Danny Bonaduce from The Partridge Family making a "guest appearance" on an episode of Runaround, and I don't think he was in anything else.
He did The Dating Game as a celebrity bachelor at least twice.

That's right - one of them was during a week of TV celebrity "kids" (Maureen McCormick was one of them); Danny's appearance was just after his show did an episode at Marineland, and the trip was to...Sea World

Indeed he did; not sure specifically when though.

Very early on, IIRC. Like one of the first couple of weeks, if not THE first week.

Re: Pictionary:

One I’m legit curious about is Shawn Michaels; I would figure that’s his only credit, no? I don’t think he ever did anything else like the wrestling Family Feud specials.

Edit: according to IMDB he did appear on one episode of Feud. Amazingly it doesn’t list his appearance on Pictionary though. Weird.

Concur. Years ago, Brad Francini posted the intros for the NBC games from January '83 plus Wheel. IIRC, outside of Wheel they were all from the premieres...I know the $ale clip came from the first episode.

Now celebrating his 21st season on GSF!

Peter Tomarken was on week 8 of Just Men.

The intro to Hit Man, if I remember right, was from the finale.

I stand corrected.

Finally, my wrestling obsession comes in handy! 

He was indeed on a WWF themed week in 1993.  This one was "Good vs. Evil" as it had one team of WWF babyfaces against a team of heels. 

And it was a who's who of Wrestlecrap inductions to boot, especially on the "evil" side (Papa Shango!  Repo Man!  IRS!) 

As a matter of fact... http://wrestlecrap.com/inductions/induction-wwffamilyfeud1993/
I'm a pacifist, and even I would like to see a little more action.

Really. Man. Just doesn't seem right. Remind me when Just Men premiered? I distinctly remember watching it live, and it was on a month-long trip to Iowa I took during the school year when my grandmother had surgery and my mom had to play caretaker. I THOUGHT the trip was during the premiere window for Hit Man and Just Men but maybe I'm misremembering in my old age.

January 3, 1983. Peter's week would have started on February 21.

And if you want to see more? Even WCW got in on that Feud money. And GLOW. http://wrestlecrap.com/inductions/induction-wcwglowfamilyfeud/

(Surprising that only this particular week got coverage; I couldn’t find anything on WCW’s first go round on the Feud.)
