[quote name=\'adamjk\' date=\'Apr 22 2004, 04:32 PM\'] Some of us(myself included) like to listen to the great themes, and hear the announcers voices. Many of them will never be heard again. Those would include Johnny Olson, Gene Wood and Rod Roddy. [/quote]
I agree, especially since I have only had GSN since last May. I haven't heard the MG theme as much as others on this list (heck, I was so desperate for MG that I actually enjoyed the 1998 version, although now I know why the 1970s shows were superior).

That's a good answer. The one I was expecting to here was someone whining about keeping the integrity of the episode pure for their precious tape collection.[/quote]
DAMN IT!! GSN is making me so mad!!!!! I need my game shows in PERFECT quality or I won't watch at all!*

Since the announcers had much more to say during the shows' openings than in the closing credits, the "they will never be heard again" argument simply doesn't hold water.
Other forum sites have long pointless threads about this non-issue. Do we really need one here?

Yes, we do.
Something called "sign-offs." If I were an announcer, I'd want people to hear my name at the end of the show.

I didn't mean it in that way neccesarily. What I meant was they will never be heard again on an first run show.
