Did anyone else experience audio problems during the Barker tribute? Seems like a similar thing happened with the Big Bucks Scandal thing a few years back.

This might be the greatest review of anything I have ever read.

UNANNOUNCED ON TV:

Favorite Celebrity Player

• Betty White, Million Dollar Password[/quote]

I'm willing to say that if THE Legend wasn't such a jerk of if GSN gave the Legend award to someone else, this award would have made it on TV. Sounds pretty hypocritical to ban an award winner from showing up because of another award winner's antics.

FYB.

Say what?

Really, what?

Huh?

Really?

No, c'mon...what?

I'm going back to sleep, and when I wake up I will not be in this weird alternate universe.

What?

I'll second the "Say WHAT?". I thought maybe he would pull off best host, because he was there so (in this awards show) he was obviously there for a reason. When it came down to the last category and he had still not appeared I thought "Are you kidding me?", knowing that he was the winner of that award.

Maybe TPiR actually won and they couldn't get Drew to appear (and Bob accepting for it may cause confusion/riots) so they decided to go with Foxworthy and 5th Grader :p

Tell that to Dian Parkinson and Holly Hallstrom. And maybe that elephant at the LA zoo.

I'm sure even they have managed to get on with their lives and put the past behind them.

Holy freaking cow. You're STILL stewing over this? I got over this weeks ago. It ain't like Barker committed murder or anything.

You are starting to sound like a fanatical stalker. This obsession of yours is genuinely scary.

Anyone have a link to that Access Hollywood piece? with Howie & Barker in bed where Barker makes the comments about the models?

BillCullen1 · « **Reply #58 on:** June 09, 2009, 01:22:24 PM »

It was an "uneven" awards show that had its hits and misses. They had a Classic Game Show award but not a Classic Host award, and there's enough of them still around for them to do it. Martindale, Marshall, Woolery, Eubanks, Lange, Kennedy, Perry, Edwards, maybe a couple of more. I didn't include Barker and Hall since they got awards. Howie was a good host, but I would've liked to see more awards and less games.

Not to take anything away from Rich Fields, but you know who I think would have made a GREAT announcer - Gary Owens. Hell, he even hosted a couple of game shows. Imagine the intro - "From beautiful downtown Hollywood . ."

That would've been nice. That also means he'd have won the trophy for best announcer.
