Which Celebrity partner...
« on: February 20, 2007, 09:33:49 PM »
Hey guys, long-time reader first time poster...just had an interesting question and thought it would be cool to hear your responses...

Which celebrity would you want leading you up Pyramid's Winner's Circle or Password Plus's Alphabetics or even Hollywood Squares' ill-fated big money bonus round or...well you get the point...name a game show(s) bonus round and what celebrity you would want to play with?

For me, I wouldn't have minded Betty White as my partner in either the Winner's Circle or Alphabetics.

I'd go for Markie Post.

I don't even care what game show.

Pyramid: Dick Clark. His U.S. career mark is six trips, 35 categories solved.
Alphabetics: Betty White

I'd go with Soupy Sales on "Pyramid". Statistically, he gave away more money than any other celebrity on the series. (Source: Soupy Sales.)

Alphabetics: Miss Betty.

Rhyme and Reason: Brother Nipsey.

Super Match: Patti Deutsch. (I have no interest in kissing Richard.)

This list begins and ends with Bill Cullen. I'm on a game show to win some coin, and I believe that with the exception of Dawson on MG, Cullen presents the best average for many shows.

My dream partner: Lynn Redgrave. Or Lee Meriwether. For reasons that had little to do with winning.

For me, the answer is Bill Cullen as well.  Game show chameleon: he fit into just about every show he did.

But for the Super Match, if Bill weren't there, I'd choose Charles Nelson Reilly.

Super Match: Patti Deutsch.

I hope you're kidding.  Given Deutsch's propensity to march to her own drummer, she'd be the last person I'd want to pick.

I know--everyone's supposed to play it straight in the Super Match.  But Deutsch and Bill Daily are probably the two people I'd least want to see come up on the wheel.
