The Game Show Host Look Alike Contest

(1/7) > >>

Track Man 876:
Hello once again fellow game show fans!  It's been quite a long time since I made a post, since I had trouble getting full membership to the ezboard.  But it feels good to be back again and to talk with you guys about game shows.
For my first post here on Invision, I felt like having a little fun.  It's something I wanted to do for quite a while, but I'm happy enough to finally do this.  It's the Game Show Host Look Alike Contest.  No, it's not really a contest, and there are no winners.  It's just a list of people that I thought of, who I see often on national TV, and believe that they look somewhat similar to a certain game show host.  Here are a few of them:

Robert Reed: Alex Trebek

Patrick Duffy: Bert Convy (Bert even said on a WLOD episode \"I get that a lot\")

Also, have you seen the commercial for Werther's Original Caramel Candy?  The guy who says \"It's the finest caramel I ever had\" looks somewhat similar to a younger Chuck Woolery.

That's all I can think of for right now.  I had some others, but I decided not to put them on the list, because when I take a second look, they don't really look alike.  Can you think of any others?  Feel free to add to the list.  Thanks in advance.

I always thought Robb Weller resembled Bert Convy as well, although he had NONE of Bert's talent

The guy who plays the father on the gawdawful Fox show \"The Pitts\" looks like a cross between David Graf and Todd Newton.

My 9th grade algebra teacher was the spitting image of Art Fleming. In looks and in voice. True story. Weird guy, tho. Never said anything about it to him 'cuz I was afraid he wouldn't appreciate it as I did. :)

The first time I saw \"The Money Maze,\" I thought, \"Oh good! Clark Race has a new show!\"

Winkfan:
Speaking of 'game show host lookalikes,' might I point out Jim Peck and Peter Tomarken both look somewhat alike. I have a 1986 episode of Crosswits in which BOTH of these men were guests. What's more, they were both on the same team! I was expecting one of them to admit that he had been looking in a mirror all along!

Or how about Tom Bergeron and Pat Bullard! When I hosted my first 'net Match Game question a couple of years ago, I had Pat on my 'cyber-celeb panel,' and he held up a 'blue card' that said, 'I am NOT Tom Bergeron!'

Cordially,
Tammy Warner--the 'Kathy Mitchell of the Big Board!'
