I think he's overlooked because he really didn't do word games outside of Password, and with the exception of one week of Password Plus, he only did Super Password.

When Celebrity WoF landed on ABC, I was hoping they'd use that as an excuse to book him on Pyramid.
JTFriends1:
I was at a charity event featuring Pat a year or so ago with a Q&A, and actually asked him if there were any other shows he would be like to be a celebrity guest on, given his great performances on Password(s). He said it wasn't something he was interested in doing and that he really doesn't watch any game shows. Though he did follow-up with the fact he loves word games, tends to be good at them and is a devotee of crossword puzzles.
Loogaroo:
I have never understood the appeal of Cash Cab. It's filler. It's good filler, but it's filler nonetheless.

Ron Greenberg was long gone. He left while Jack was still alive; I was hunting for this clip because I KNOW I've seen it, but there's an episode of Joker where Jack wraps up the Audience Game and then announces that Ron is leaving the show, giving a nice little speech thanking him for all his fine work.
BrandonFG:
That clip was in a YouTube video paying tribute to Ron for his 80th birthday. It also featured clips from other shows he created, including unsold pilots.
I remember trying to find the video a few years ago and it was private.
