Game show hosts: Then and Now - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

aFound this little ditty on Yahoo! and would like to share this with the fellow game show fans here. We all know the hosts and the people who made the shows as great as they were when the daytime game show ruled the airwaves big time and were part of many childhood memories. No worries of daytime talk shows, courtroom shows, local news all day, or the reality show as is commonplace today. I know there were a couple of talk shows back then, (Mike Douglas, Dinah Shore) but they were guest-driven interview shows from a different era.

For game show lovers who miss the genre, this should be easy. If you're on these boards the first time or weren't born when the shows were great, play along.

Game Show Hosts: Then and Now

Right, here.

Yahoo! Games-July 27, 2011

Note: I'd like to point out one discrepancy in the photos. Gene passed away in November 1999 at the age of 81. Someone forgot to post a then & now photo of 'The master of 'The Hollywood Squares,' Peter Marshall.'' Nice they included a then & now photo of Gene, but not Peter?

I'm surprised there was an entry for The Weakest Link's Anne Robinson since the show is barely ten years old.
