Jim Perry, of the 1978-81 NBC Card Sharks, and of the 1983-89 $ale of the Century (which started right on my second birthday, believe it or not), has just now passed on.
Holy crap, I remember that dude. He was 82??? Good god time flies!
I liked Definition. Lotsa puns, some of them good.
The baseball pitcher is only 80. Must not be him.
That’s right-- it isn’t. This is the former game show emcee by that name.
Notable for its boombastic Quincy Jones theme song and for being on right after school so that, in the 2 channel universe, everyone watched it even though they didn’t necessarily like it.
Also notable for the way Perry’s hair went from white to brown and back again over night.
