RIP Geoff Edwards

Chuck Barris must feel a lot of pain. First Jim Lange, now Geoff Edwards died @ the age of 83.

He was a radio dj, even a news reporter. He covered the JFK assassination when Lee Harvey Oswald was shot. In the mid 60's he was a semi regular on Petticoat Junction.

But in 1973, he started hosting game shows starting with Hollywood's Talking (which got replaced by Match Game '73). Other game shows he did were Jackpot, Play The Percentages, Starcade, Shoot For The Stars, Chain Reaction & of course, The (New) Treasure Hunt!

He will be missed.
