when i got GSN first time(on Directv in 97) i really liked Johnny Olsen maybe its me but the way he did the closing spiel: "This is Johnny Olsen speaking
for The Price Is Right, a Mark Goodson-Bill Todman Production!" that i liked i could add Jay Stewart too: "This is Jay Stewart speaking. Sale Of The Century is a Reg Grundy Production!" now i heard the later a lot(thanks to watching SOTC on my NBC station WYFF and also on USA Network in reruns(and you could add the Reg Grundy fanfare too!) |

I rate John and Andrea as my 2 favorite Nick game show announcers too; they were that good. I'll add Ed Mackay (TJW 90) too since i saw that on USA Network too, Larry van Nuys wasn't too bad on TTD 90 too. Michelle Roth (sp?) on Crosswits wasn't too bad either.
