Greatest Game Show Hosts Ranked (1 Viewer)

Can't argue with their top 3: Trebek, Barker, Dawson.

I would rank Bill Cullen much higher., probably #5.  

Martindale should be above Steve Harvey, who is WAY too high.

Jim Perry should be in the top 10.

 
peter marshall, hollywood squares?

eta:  i tried to add him at #54, but you have to be a member.

I loved how **** Clark and Jim Perry would bring a certain level of importance to the games. When someone was going for the big money on Pyramid **** Clark made seem like it was a big deal. He'd quiet down the studio, take a little pause and then in that super-official voice say "here is your first subject...go". So great. Then after the someone choked in the bonus round he came in there with the perfect clue, got the contestant to spit out the right answer. As if the guest star giving the clues wasn't already gutted enough from the loss. Guy was ruthless. Jim Perry, before he flipped the final card on Card Sharks, the card that could win someone the game he wouldn't say "for the win", he would say "for the Championship". Loved that. Made it feel like Wimbledon. Sale of the Century was must see TV if you didn't have to go to school. Love how JP came running out onto the set every day too. Never lollygagged it. Came in there like Prefontaine.
