Noticed there was a list of GS Hosts here: http://amiannoying.com/(0jof1wrvsyq0ob45cn...px?collection=9 (http://\"http://amiannoying.com/(0jof1wrvsyq0ob45cnce5xuu)/collection.aspx?collection=9\")
The top of the list is least annoying, nice to see Cullen on top :)
-
And I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds Todd Newton annoying.
Be careful on this site, there was a virus on one of the pages.
-
Ummm...
naked Kennedy, y'all.
-
Some of the names on that list are pretty interesting....Steve Edwards never got a GS on the air, and some of them I have absolutely no idea what they had to do with game shows.

By that, I assume you're referring to the reality show hosts. I took a look at that list and said WTF?

Most likely. Never heard of some of them.

George Gray ranked #79 while Anne Robinson ranked #123? That's bizarre!
Thought Anne would be in @ least the top 25.
But I do like both hosts snide remarks after a round was played.

Ya know, I never thought I'd say this, but there were a few outfits that Kennedy wore on FOF that almost made her look...dare I say...cute. :)

FWIW, the original list had Jim Perry twice (at #68 and #69, IIRC; both with a picture of him on the CS set and not the SOTC set).
Ted hums the really catchy 80s SOTC theme....
(Feel free to ridicule my taste in GS themes.)

May I ask what Flip Wilson hosted?

Something called People Are Funny, IIRC something like that. It was a revival of something and it aired in the mid-80s.

I won't ridicule that. But why would they put Jim Perry's name twice, just for the fact he hosted 2 shows?
Would they put Dick Clark, Peter Tomarken, etc., more than once to show they hosted more than one show?

I would have to agree with this...it's a shame, too. His work was very enjoyable on "Hollywood Showdown".

People Are Funny aired during the summer of 1984 on NBC. It wasn't quite the same show as the 50's version.
Also, the theme song is also used on Treasure Hunt's closing (1981 version).

And the 80s revival was a hidden camera show, while the Art Linkletter original was a mix of stunts and studio guessing games. In fact, I consider the 80s version a totally separate show that just happened to use the same name as the original (which name is owned by NBC).
