Host news

Google News has a couple of items about game show hosts past and present.

There's been another health scare about The Price is Right legend Bob Barker, but it seems to be much less serious than recent incidents. Mr. Barker apparently fell at his Hollywood Hills home earlier this month. Paramedics responded to the scene but did not take the 95-year-old to the hospital. He's been recovering from more serious falls late last year.

Meanwhile, Match Game host Alec Baldwin pled out on charges stemming from his fisticuffs with another motorist over a parking spot. In now deleted tweets - they were apparently less than fully truthful (wink) - Baldwin had denied any wrongdoing. His lawyers prevailed on him to accept a plea deal for an anger management class. Alex Baldwin in anger management. There's got to be a sitcom episode in there someplace.

Nielsen might soon sentence Match Game to permanent hiatus. The show is getting a little over two million viewers. Even by ABC standards, that's not much of an audience for broadcast TV. The game show could well suffer the same fate as Alec Baldwin's talk show.
