So I'm Watching This Infomercial. . .
« on: December 07, 2003, 08:49:42 PM »
. . .as I'm flicking around the dial awaiting the (yawn) exciting NFL action today.  Now it's been discussed in previous threads the various game show hosts/personalities who either hosted or appeared on informercials, but today may be the first time that I recognized a former game show CONTESTANT appearing.  Sally Ben Tal, who was a contestant on P+ the week of David Letterman and Marion Ross' appearance (which is the only reason I recognized her) and was I believe one of P+'s all-time biggest money winners, is one of the people giving testimonials in an infomercial for the Food Saver.

I thought some people might find that interesting.  Others might not (but, hey, it only cost you a few seconds of reading--your mileage may vary).  Cheers!

On a similar note, Home Shopping Network vitamin-hawker Andrew Lessman is a contestant on the 8/28/81 episode of The Krypton Factor, which can be found on a trading circuit near you.
