Favorite / least favorite game show hosts

I visited an aunt yesterday and she was watching re-runs of Chain Reaction that she'd recorded. The host, Dylan Lane, seems like a super good guy, but just to me personally, he's got the charisma of a rock.

I grew up with Wheel of Fortune at 7:00 on winter weekdays followed by Jeopardy! at 7:30. The awesomeness of Pat Sajak (and Vanna White) followed by Alex Trebek is a hard one-two punch to top -- they were both always very well-spoken, and never slow with a clever quip. I'd watch post-Alex Trebek Jeopardy! every once in a while if LeVar Burton was the host. Ken Jennings is cool but I find him about as dull as Dylan Lane.

My grandpa always watched Bob Barker on The Price is Right on break from working on the farm, and I remember watching Family Feud with them when I was a kid. I liked Richard Dawson and Ray Combs (who kept a houseboat on Lake Cumberland) a lot, and later Steve Harvey (even though he was a little over-the-top at times -- he'd often milk funny responses for all they were worth).

I can only just barely remember Remote Control, but I thought that Kari Wuhrer was adorable.

TV Ratings: UK/UGA game #1 last week

I know the win would've been huge....but I'm SO GLAD we fought until the last snap and didn't get embarrassed on national TV. Would've been so bad for our brand to get our teeth kicked in front of that audience.


SEC GAMES were the TOP 4
1. UK/UGA 6.6 million
2. Bama/Wisconsin 5 million
3. LSU/SC 4.9 million
4. Texas A&M/Florida 4.8 million

ESPN//ABC/Disney must be very happy with their early returns on the SEC deal....and they haven't even gotten a big Texas or OU game on their networks yet.
