I got 12.  I watch a lot of GSN

I can also remember Combs, and Louie Anderson was host of FAMILY FEUD for a while too.  Good times.

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

As all those were just off the top of my head, and as has been pointed out here, there were alot of game show hosts and/or game shows that I missed. But, here are some more that I remember.

"Storybook Squares" w/ Peter Marshall, the host of "Hollywood Squares"
The children's version of "Hollywood Squares," which was on Saturday monrings.

"House Party" w/ Art Linkletter.
I didn't know what to do with this one, so I kept it off my list, but at times it was like a gameshow. On weekday afternoons.

And here are more gameshows, which were not included in my original  poll, because I could not for the life of me, remember who were the hosts.

Sundays
"College Bowl" (afternoons)
This was later revived for a short time on the Disney Channel.

Mondays
"I've Got a Secret" (evenings)
Which came on just after "To Tell the Truth," and to tell the truth I actually prefered "I've Got a Secret."

Saturdays
"The Dating Game" (evenings)
Just before "The Newlywed Game"

And gameshow hosts with gameshows I can't remember.

Tom Kennedy
Who had another gameshow on weekday afternoons just before or just after Gene Rayburn's "The Match Game."

Robert Q. Lewis

Johnny Carson
Who when he was just starting out in Hollywood hosted several gameshows. None of the titles which I can remember.

Jackie Gleason
Who hosted a gameshow, whose title I can't remember, but it was something like "In the Frame" or something like that, but the show is best remembered because only two episodes were ever aired. The first episode, and then the second episode, which consisted of Jackie Gleason apologizing to anyone and everyone who had watched the first episode.

And thank-you everyone and anyone for playing.

Thank-you for that, retrorussell. I just couldn't think of it off hand, though I knew it had something to do with pictures. That's a karma for you.

He he he.. that show is often in the conversation of "Worst TV show ever".  Supertrain, You're In The Picture, Life With Lucy, Pink Lady, The Diamond Head Game.. the list goes on and on.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
