A while ago, someone posted a thread featuring the Top 5 best and worst game show themes of all-time on here and this got me thinking:
Who do you think are the top 10 Really Good, But Really Overrated Game Show Hosts and why?
In random order...
1). Monty Hall - I never really seemed to get into him on LMaD that much and then I see him on his other shows and hosts them like he's still on LMaD, especially on his other shows such as It's Anybody's Guess and Split Second '86.
2). Pat Sajak - After seeing Chuck in action, Sajak's puckish behavior and can really grate one's nerves, especially during the time he had his talk show and he started acting like he was better than everyone else.
3). Peter Marshall - I never really saw anything special about this guy. On HS, it was really the stars that MADE THE SHOW! Marshall, all he really did was do his tee-hee laugh, which also grinded my teeth as well. I also hated the way he took crappy potshots at other versions of HS, too! Sounds like one of those guys that acts nice, but talk about other versions of HS around him and he can come out as a jerk!
4). Todd Newton - I liked him on Hollywood Showdown, but on Whammy, he seems fake and phony. He sounds like he's excited in round 1, but then dozes off in round 2. It's suppposed to be the other way around!
5). Bob Eubanks - On TNG, his smart-alecky humor works just fine on there, but on CS, his smart-alecky persona doesn't work as good and he, like Peter Marshall can come out as a jerk!
