Certain hosts if given emcee assignments on particular shows would quite likely be absolutely awful. Such an example would be John Davidson hosting Jeopardy!. What such hypothetical examples come to your mind?
I know it's tempting to make a list of five or ten or twenty or more, but please do thy utmost to limit your choice to just one.

Of course, Davidson did host Pyramid.

How about Allen Ludden hosting The New Treasure Hunt?

Dang, beat me to using Cullen.  I was going to suggest him for GONG.

Jim Caldwell hosting Split Second.  The lack of red boxes would confuse Jimmy.

Richard Karn on Jeopardy.

"It's time for Double Jeopardy!, and I'm feeling kinda randy...I think it's time to DOUBLE THOSE DOLLARS!!! Do I make you horny baby, do I?"
"They're both Norman Jewison movies, Troy, but we did think of one Jew more famous than Tevye."
