Title: New GSN "coming up next" bumper voice
Post by: zachhoran on April 15, 2005, 11:28:42 AM
A voice that sounds an awful lot like Chuck Woolery has done this morning's "coming up next" GSN bumpers. I assume it is him, right?

I don't know if it is him or not, but I, too, thought it sounded like him.

He IDed himself during the coming up next promo during $100K Pyramid this morning, saying "Love Connection, starring me, Chuck Woolery"

When I noticed it I thought 'Hey, there doing business with him again!"

Maybe this bodes well for a possible fourth season of Lingo after all...  I noticed the new voiceover and I should have recognized him, but since I don't watch Love Connection's lead-in--whatever that is--I didn't know for sure until the bumper at the end of Card Sharks--Lingo's lead-in.  Note that in the bumper right before Blockbusters, Chuck acknowledges that it is the Bill Rafferty version.

Ah-ha!  That explains the new voice for the online games promo.  (The one with the high scores)
