Vicki did Double Talk but not Blankety Blanks, however Clifton Davis did do both.

Blanquepage:
Whoops, thanks. Not sure why I had Vicki stuck in my mind instead of Clifton. So is this episode guide incorrect, Vicki didn't appear in week 5? https://gameshows.fandom.com/wiki/Double_Talk/Episode_Guide

Honorable mention (aka not quite fitting the OP requirements, but close) for Geoff Edwards when he subbed for Bill Cullen on the original Chain Reaction.  When Geoff hosted the Canadian version, the theme went to Canada as well, albeit a different "mix".

Did Three On a Match always use the same theme?  Years ago I got what I thought the was theme in a trade, but it was a different piece.  I was told the piece I got was the first theme to the show.  I don't know whether that's true or not.

I believe the intro music was one piece.  The mid-show bumper music as well as the music played when describing prize packages won was another, and I believe the end theme was yet another piece of music, based on the limited number of episodes I've had a chance to view.  The 6 or 8 eps available are from 1973 & 1974.  As for music themes prior, I do not recall even though I was alive when the show debuted back in 1971.

Audio from what could be the first episode towards the bottom of page, I'm inclined to think it only used one theme. But then again, I wasn't around yet. Maybe it changed at some point and then reverted back? Regardless, it seems like it at least started off the same.
