Who announced "Body Language" after Johnny Olsen passed away? I don't remember who took over.


Thanks,

John

 I wanna say it was Gene Wood, but I could be wrong.

I know that Bob Hilton was one of the announcers who took over for Johnny O on Body Language[/b] after his death.  I believe Gene Wood may have announced as well.

Well, let's also keep in mind that Body Language wasn't on for much longer after Johnny O passed away. The show was canceled sometime in early 1986. Bob Hilton announced the first few shows after Johnny's passing, and Gene Wood announced the remaining episodes.

Actually, in terms of taping, BL never lived to see 1986.  The series finale aired on January 3, 1986; the copyright date was still 1985.  BTW, Gene announced the final week.
