"How do you do, ladies and gentlemen, I'm Fahey Flynn. And this is the Big Showdown!"
I can't imagine Fahey hosting a game show.
[OT]: Fahey died not long after an appearance at my high school. He slipped and fell off the stage, suffering severe injuries. This happened in the mid-80s, a good eight or ten years after I was handed my diploma on that same stage.
Fahey Flynn was a great news anchor, and a very sweet and classy man.

This was before the possibility of 1.3 million colors of light, but I dreamed "The Big Showdown" was back, but this time hosted by WLS Chicago anchorman Fahey Flynn, whom I had seen exactly one time in my life when he anchored the post-primetime Saturday night ABC Weekend News in 1975.
