RIP Charlie O'Donnell
From 1975-1980 & again from 1988-2010, he was the announcer on Wheel of Fortune. He died @ the age of 78.
Charlie O'Donnell was a radio dj as well as announcing game shows. His first tv start was when he became Dick Clark's sidekick on American Bandstand back in 1958. He also announced on Dick Clark's other shows, The $100K Pyramid, New Year's Rockin Eve and TV's Bloopers & Practical Jokes. If you're a game show fan like me, you prbably heard him announce these shows... Dance Fever, Monopoly, Wordplay, Joker's Wild, Tic Tac Dough, Bullseye (he replaced Jay Stewart on those 3 shows back in 1981), All-Star Secrets, The Guiness Game. Or you heard him subbing on... Card Sharks, Press Your Luck, To Tell The Truth (NBC); You will be missed. |
Heard his voice a million times in my childhood I won't soon forget it, RIP Mr. O'Donnell.

Yeah, I remember him from Wheel of Fortune. It sucks that he died. He'll be missed. Did they say what he died of?
