Whom would you choose? Difficulty: chronological order from left to right. Discuss.

Mount Rushmore, that is. Whom would you choose? Difficulty: chronological order from left to right. Discuss.
We already have. (http://"http://gameshow.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=6421&st=0&p=66674&hl=rushmore&fromsearch=1&#entry66674") More than once, even. (http://"http://gameshow.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=2489&st=0&p=21464&hl=rushmore&fromsearch=1&#entry21464")

Rolf Benirschke, Matt Ottinger, Patrick Duffy and Burt Newton.

List fails without wacky host Sinatra.
-
Dylan Lane, Rossi Morreale, William Shatner, John Cervenka.
-
Bill Cullen. The other three don't matter.
Still accurate.
-
Um...obviously it would be...Clifton Fadiman | Edd Byrnes | Patrick Wayne | Brad Sherwood
Seriously (since I wasn't around eight years ago (should've been)):
Bill Cullen | Allen Ludden | Bob Barker | Dick Clark
John Daly | Gene Rayburn | Tom Kennedy | Chuck Woolery would be on the scaled down replica at Universal Studios.

Sorry, clemon79. I forgot. The search engine is my friend.

As to hostesses, who would you choose in this list?

The choices include Vicki McCarty, Cynthia Washington, and Tricia Gist (who were game show hostesses for a week or two) and Sally Julian (who was fired because she was so bad), but Carol Merrill, Ruta Lee, Elaine Stewart, Susanna Williams, Lacey Pemberton, Roxanne, and all of the TPIR models are excluded?

Curt,
Thank you for pointing them out.

Putting Fadiman in with the others seems bizarre- his work on "Information Please" played a major role in shaping what a host would be and do, particularly on panel programs.

Who's Roxanne? What game show did she do?

Just a famous one, is all. (http://"http://lmgtfy.com/?q=roxanne+game+show+hostess")

Scrabble didn't have a model?

Harvey Whippleman in drag.
Oh wait, wrong topic.

Interesting and worthy threadjacking. Roxanne (I am just barely old enough to remember her), Bess Myerson, Lovely Carol Merrill, and Vanna.
-

So you knew it all the time but asked the question anyway? What the hell, mate? What the hell?

Heather Cunningham. Nuff said.

At first I thought one of the original Barker's Beauties (honestly Janice more than anything), but I could agree with this.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Chuck Woolery because he's ... naturally stoned.
(yes, America, it's obscure reference time, an avant-garde little event)

Thank you Mario. But our joke is in another castle.

You're right. I wasn't particularly impressed with his work on The Name's the Same, but I didn't mind his work on What's My Line?, and I just looked at Information Please (he's like a completely different person. Wow). He certainly doesn't belong on this list. I'll revise.
Clifton Fadiman Bennett Cerf | Edd Byrnes | Patrick Wayne | Brad Sherwood
When it comes to hostesses...
Roxanne | Carol Merrill | Janice Pennington | Vanna White

I think he was just repeating what the search led to. Still kind of "what the hell", but I don't think he knew it all this time.

The game is over. Well played.

Okay, my turn. I don't recall participating in the earlier lists, so here goes:
Cullen (natch), Kennedy, Martindale and Trebek. Add up the shows they've hosted. 10 years ago, Barker would have been in Trebek's place.
-
My Mount Rushmore of Game Show Personalities:
Bob Barker, Bob Eubanks, Peter Tomarken, and Bill Rafferty.
-
Bill Cullen, Jackie Gleason, William Shatner, and Chris Jericho.
If we're being serious:
Bill Cullen, Bob Barker, Wink Martindale (for being the model for the pop-culture stereotypical game show host), Alex Trebek.
-
How about game show Mount Rushmore II EggCrate Boogaloo. What show announcers you put up there?
Johnny Olsen, Jay Stewart,Johnny Gilbert, Gene Wood.

Bob Barker, Wink Martindale, Bill Cullen, and Gene Rayburn
