One More Host of "It's Your Bet."

Looking over a back issue of TV Guide for the week of March 5-9, 1973. KNXT in LA was running "It's Your Bet" at 3:30pm and according to the listing James Darren is identified as the host for that week. Celebs are Tina Sinatra and Bob Seagren.  I know Mr. Darren appeared on a good number of Ralph Andrews shows as panelist as well, so it would have been interesting to see him host a show.  Then again, is it possible TV Guide thought Lyle Waggoner and James Darren were the same guy? :)
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

These kind of errors were not that uncommon in TVGuide in those days.  The week of Aug 11, 1975 Bert Convy is listed as being the host of Showoffs.  I supposed he could have hosted a week, but Bobby Van is not listed as one of the panelists for that week.  Since that aired during summer vacation, I would have remembered if Bert actually did host that week.
