Next, he took part of the original incarnation of Love Connection from 1983–94, hosted Scrabble from 1984–90 (and during a brief revival in 1993), as well as his more recent ones: Lingo (GSN, 2002–07), going into its sixth season, and Think Like a Cat, which saw its premiere on GSN in mid-November 2008.

His strong looks, casual wit and friendly charm helped him become audiences' favorite as well as most respected anchor person in the game show business.
