For those wondering what this one-shot announcer did before/after LMaD '80...

Vancouver Broadcasters

And is it just me, or does our guy Chuck look a lot like his LMaD announcing predecessor, sans glasses? :-)

I'm working on a 23-year memory here, but didn't Chuck wear glasses when announcing on the show? And, yes, at the time those shows were presented, I thought the same thing about his resemblance to Jay Stewart.

He did indeed wear glasses on LMaD...when showing an ep of it at GSC-X, the attendees remarked that he "looked like Jay Stewart and sounded like Brian Cummings". :-)

I've never seen an episode of LMAD '80, but I can certainly see a resemblance between Chuck Chandler and Jay Stewart.

And if you scroll further down that page, you can find Wayne Cox.

He's gone gray and it says his career goes back to the late 60s. I don't remember him looking the age on "TalkAbout." :-/

Gee, maybe Wayne was a teenager when he started out. But then again, didn't most game show hosts start their careers in their teens?

Cordially,

P.S. I thought Chuck Chandler had died.....

I spy a photo of Talkabout announcer Dean Hill on those pages as well. But, alas, sorry Chuck--no Mary Lou Basaraba.

She worked in the eastern part of Canada, not the western part, eh?

Just out of curiosity, what did the 1980-81 LMAD's set look like?
