Milestone Moments: All The Celebrity Vitals
danderson400 replied to OtterMommy's topic in Everything Else TV
Same thing with Jim Perry on Sale of The Century, and of course Pat and Vanna on Wheel. The one host i haven't mentioned yet is Bert Convy on Super Password. A worthy successor for Allen Ludden -

Why Grammar Matters: A Place To Discuss Matters Of Grammar

Normally on Joker's Wild, Jack Barry would have Jay Stewart or later on, Charlie O Donnell introduce "the champion and the challenger" and that was a proper way of doing it that way. -

I remember my late grandmother watching him on The Doctors didn't know he did other shows too. -
I remember a film insert from the 70s that i remember seeing as a child, where Megan (i think that who it was) goes to the doctor and gets a cast on her arm so it can heal. Is it this one?

Iconography: Network And Production Logos

On the Samuel Goldwyn logo, the earliest episodes of American Gladiators has the American Gladiators logo on top and below it says "HAS BEEN PRESENTED BY" with Samuel Goldwyn Jr.'s signature and line and below and below it says "THE SAMUEL GOLDWYN COMPANY". It was the only season to have this logo, so it's a very rare logo. Of course, I'm more familiar with the "other" SG logo. -
Didn't realize till now, but Bob Cruz, besides doing "20/20"'s announcing, he also did all the end announces for ABC's sports programming in the 1990s, mostly on "Wide World of Sports" or "Monday Night Football"- "Now stay tuned for your local news and World News (Saturday/Sunday) (or) Nightline, over most of these ABC stations." Followed by by the division plug "This has been a presentation of ABC Sports...recognized around the world as the leader in sports television!"

Tune!: Best TV Moments Involving Music
danderson400 replied to DollEyes's topic in Everything Else TV
As a kid, i remember a Sesame Street News Flash where Kermit interviews Old King Cole, and discovers he no longer has three fiddlers, but rather a bass player, a drummer, and a saxophone player. They have a jam session with Kermit joining in the festivities. I actually danced around the room during that. I was 3 years old, so it would have been 1987-88 -

Ugh!: Actors, Hosts, And TV Personalities You Just Can't Stand
danderson400 replied to UYI's topic in Everything Else TV
Dick Clark had the same reaction on The Challengers in 1990 when Larry Caplan became the first Ultimate Challenge winner, taking down the original jackpot for $60,000 Dick simply said "you're right!" and the crowd went wild. -

Dick Clark on Pyramid was like that too, telling the audience to be very quiet, when 100,000 was on the line. -

I'll agree with you on that. While the core game remained the same, the changes made(rappin' Dragon in the bonus game, pots that started over with ties despite increase of question value, the fact that sometimes the bonus game could be impossible to win without the Dragonslayer, etc.) wasn't that great. The other thing that hurt the show, in my opinion was Patrick Wayne, simply because of him being almost-universally panned as an incredibly annoying host, with his shouts of "YOU WIIIIIIN!" in comparison to Wink Martindale, who not only was a better host, but brought the southern charm to his hosting duties. Having watched Patrick host TTD(first on WYFF/4 Greenville/Spartanburg/Asheville in 1990, and later on USA Network reruns) and seeing Wink do the same thing on USA and later on, Game Show Network, i feel that Wink was the better host, by far. -

The Doctors (1963) - General Discussion
danderson400 replied to tessaray's topic in The Doctors (1963)
My grandmother was a big fan of The Doctors in the late 70s. I don't remember much of it expect for the announcer, Mel Brandt (who was also known for his announcing the animated "Laramie Peacock" color opening in the 1960s and 1970s) who was as much a part of the series as much as Johnny Olsen or Rod Roddy was to The Price Is Right. I just can't see the opening titles without Mel Brandt saying "The Doctors is brought to you in part by the Colgate-Palmolive Company" after the theme. -

Not just Greta, but Sara seems to be having a hard time too. I think she(the actress) was later on St. Elsewhere? -

Who are the cast members in this photo? I can spot Jada Rowland, Shawn Campbell, David O'Brien, James Pritchett, Jennifer Houlton, and Jim Storm, but who's the nurse? and Jim Storm is wearing a doctors uniform and sitting in a wheelchair. I'm a bit curious about the nurse, and which actress would have played her. EDIT: it's Laura Julian. -

I remember watching Our House because it followed NBC's NFL telecasts, back when NBC had the rights to AFC games then. -

That's one of the issues i had with him- he ruined what had been a pretty good game show in the Martindale era.
