[quote name=\'Dsmith\' date=\'Sep 27 2003, 03:28 PM\'] [quote name=\'Don Howard\' date=\'Sep 27 2003, 11:46 AM\'] This post has me thinking that a whole bunch of emcees have
gone the informercial route along the way--which is the only
reason why I'd ever watch those things.
The list of names I can come up with off the top of my head are
Art Fleming, Peter Marshall, Dennis James, Jim Perry, Art James,
Bob Eubanks, Monty Hall (for the Let's Make A Deal phone
game which included clips from the 70s LMAD) and--of course--
Peter Tomarken.
Who have I left out? [/quote]
The champion of gameshow hosts MR.....
Joe Farago! [/quote]
OK, I don't think he actually hosted this (although I could be wrong), but did somebody say. . . {echo chamber}Woolery?{off/echo chamber}

Seem to recall something involving Victoria Principal.

We shouldn't forget Dick Clark either -- I've seen him on at least 2 different infomercials, plugging rechargable alkaline batteries (made by Buddy L -- the toy car people) in one, and selling a greatest rock & roll hits collection (by Time-Life, of course) in another.

 not to mention the infamous MotoLure.

I seem to recall reading that one Jim Caldwell also made some (Tic Tac) Dough doing infomercials in recent years.

He did.

For Durashine (car wax) and some handheld drill.
