I just got around to watching the 3rd Most Outrageous Game Show Moments special, so this may have been asked, but. . . Bob mentions at one point that he's hosted \"over 10 different game shows.\" I'm up to seven, what are four more to put him over 10?

The Newlywed Game
Rhyme and Reason
All-Star Secrets
Dream House
Trivia Trap
Card Sharks
The Powerball TV Game

Wouldn't surprise me if he was counting pilots (Gambit, Name Game, etc.) and/or multiple runs (The Newlywed Game, The Newlywed Game, The New Newlywed Game, The Newlywed Game), though Family Secrets is another series to add to your list of series titles.

\"Diamond Head\" and \"Infatuation\" would make ten.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

He also did a 1984 pilot, Flash Frame, which was an entertainment quizzer from Michael Thompson Productions.

Thanks for the answers, everybody. I'm kicking myself for missing Diamond Head.

What were \"Infatuation\" and \"Gold Rush\" about?

 You really shouldn't be. I think even Bob regrets doing that dog of a game. :)

I don't know anything about \"Gold Rush\", but \"Infatuation\" was a piss-poor dating show in the Love Connection vein.

 As per a post in ATGS several years back, Gold Rush was a failed Bob Stewart pilot of the mid 70s, taped in NYC at the Ed SUllivan Theater.

The burning question of each segment on Infatuation was \"Are you gonna kiss her or diss her?\". We must count our blessings GSN doesn't put this on.

Kiss her or Diss her? Eew. That's creepier than the guy from \"Crush\" asking high schoolers if they want to \"become lovers\" or \"just remain friends\".

(Am I the only one who has seen \"Crush\"?)

You're probably right.  I have an episode of \"Card Sharks\" in which Bob mentions \"Diamond Head Game\", and his comments about it aren't exactly flattering.
