And by sheer coincidence, one of those weeks is airing now on Buzzr.
Also, while not bona-fide substitute hosts, both Peggy Cass and Kitty Carlisle sat in Garry's seat for the first half of an episode -- usually because they knew the person in the segment.

There was one time when Roger Tuttle filled in for Gene Rayburn on Dough Re Mi and it wasn't because Gene was on vacation....Gene overslept! He thought NBC News would preempt for coverage of the United Nations, that was his excuse.
