I was kind of surprised that Rod Roddy had been given a tryout, since he had not worked for Goodson before.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

A little web scouring reveals that Bob Hilton left Hollywood circa 1990 - 1991 for Cedar Rapids, Iowa where he became a TV news anchor. He then moved to KOVR, Sacramento where he was an anchor from 1995 until February 2001. As best I can tell, today he is effectively retired from show business and is involved with his cleaning product company.

He did make a brief return to LA to announce the TNPIR pilot hosted by Mark Kriski, no?

Is that really necessary?  Every gay person isn't effeminate, just as every Canadian doesn't end their statements with ", no?" and ", eh?"  You are so ignorant.

He also used the men's room while he was here.

I'm glad we worked THAT piece of info into the discussion (ROLLS EYES).

He did do the Orlando version of LMAD in 90, though he may have lived elsewhere.

Zach never ceases to amaze.

I'm not amazed...I'm actually quite saddened by the man's pathetic attempts to "impress" with useless knowledge.  Zach, give it the frig up already.

And Rich Fields does it again today with the annoyingly loud "Here it comes!" when will this guy ever learn to tone it down?  I almost needed an Ibuprofen listening to that.

I wonder if Fremantle is telling Rich to do all this. I notice TPiR has gotten considerably louder in recent years, and one big thing I've noticed is that the audience yells over every single thing, just like with Feud.

Bob: I've got a hangnail!
Audience: Yeeaaahhhhh! Wooooooo!

This is not a complaint, but I notice that Fremantle seems to think that yelling over everything automatically makes the show 10x exciting. In some cases, it's just annoying.

Well, would you rather them have Michael Young come in and bore you to death?

The star of Soap World, which used the 1970s Break The Bank theme--about the only good thing about that show.

I don't know if it's Fremantle or not. I think it's just Rich's annoying style of announcing.

Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS
