Well, that makes several View on-air personnel with game show ties - M. Viera on WWTBAM?, Whoopi on HS-Bergeron, Rosie O on $MPassword being the others.
And, of course, Barbara Walters' 10 years as a stunt girl on Beat the Clock.

Bud Collyer was green with envy.
Congrats to Sherri. I'll try to catch a taping of TNG in NYC to see for myself. I'll report back here.

IIRC, didn't Joy Behar appear on Bergeron's HSq in one of the earlier seasons?
SN: Joy's ex-husband, Joe, directed several games in the 70s and 80s, including LMaD and Fun House.
