Replace Wink Martindale with Richard Dawson (Family Feud) and you’ve got it.

[BufordT 351]

Mount Rushmore would be Barker, Trebek, Sajak and maybe Dawson or Rayburn

My Favorites would be Barris, Philbin, Colin Quinn (who i thought was hilarious) and Steve Harvey (needed one currently employed)

Pat Sajak is awful. He’s a compiler (Frank Gore type) I suppose but his banter is cringy. I’d put Dawson, Bob Eubanks, or Steve Harvey over him.

Remember when Rolf Benershcke was the host??  10x worse than Sajak.

I was kidding with Wink Martindale

Just wanted to see what folks would say. lol. Although, I do remember watching Tic Tac Dough while at my grandma's, waiting for my mom to get off work. Musta been around 5pm central start time.

 

Personally, I'd go with

Trebek
Barker
Raeburn
Dawson

 

Pat Sajak although on a long time, wasn't as "good of a host" as the 4 I just listed. imo.

I do vaguely remember the shopping thing.

Sajak owes his career to Vanna. Her back must be focked from carrying his ass for 3 decades!

Why no Dawson? 

I mean...I get it ... You can only pick 4.  How did you pick your #4 over Dawson? (I'm only assuming Dawson would be your #5)

what happened was Pat Sajak had a TV talk show and brought in Rush Limbaugh to guest host.  Rush was just a radio guy at the time but he did very well which led to Rush starring in his own TV talk show.  Rush's TV production team included Roger Ailes and others who realized the format would actually function great as its own right wing network, so the production team went on to found Fox news.

All of that happened because Pat Sajak gave Rush Limbaugh a chance.

This is the correct answer 

[TommyGavin 616]

In a former life I was a game show host on the college / corporate circuit- I wore a oversized powder blue suit with a sheer top. Usually yellow sometimes black. It was the 80’s/early 90’s !!! Had extremely long hair. 
 

I have revised the roll but not nearly as fun back in the day.

[tubby_mcgee 636]

I think the "consensus" guy that most of us are leaving out is Pat Sajak.

It shows that longevity does win fans over.
