Hosts who just stopped hosting
Jimmy Owen:
Anybody have any insight as to why certain ubiquitous hosts suddenly stopped hosting game shows? I'm thinking specifically of Jan Murray and Bert Parks, who were in show biz long after their last game shows. You can add other examples.
cmjb13:
maybe nobody made them an offer?

This may not be quite what you had in mind, but in this interview, Monty Hall basically says he'll never host LMaD again.

Garry Moore hung it up voluntaraily....I thought Bert Parks declined to host any more GSes after not getting the HS job......
