The host who vanished

Happened to be watching a rerun of Chain Reaction on GSN today when I started thinking deep thoughts, like whatever happened to Dylan Lane?

Turns out that Google doesn't know the answer. Or at least my quick search didn't turn up anything about the Chain Reaction host after 2007. His IMDb page gives his last acting gig as "Justin Carter" on What Goes On in that year. After that entry, it looks like anybody's guess.

I suppose that a more determined search could come up with something about Mr. Lane. I don't think he's gone off the grid and/or into the witness protection program, though I didn't want to pry too much. But he certainly seems to have quit show business.

Dylan got slammed for his stiffish hosting of Chain Reaction, though that hasn't stopped GSN from grinding the 130 eps into rerun dust. He even received a coveted Game Show Garbage induction, which - as so often happens with the site - is ridiculous overkill. He wasn't that bad.

GSN eventually remade the show with a better host, Mike Catherwood. But that version is off the network now, for whatever reason. And Mike is definitely still in show biz. IMDb has him working on a documentary this year.
