Bummer.  RIP.  He's dancing with Gene Gene the Dancing Machine in the great beyond.

I just can't imagine Chuck Barris as 87 years old. Man, game shows used to be so fun. Hollywood Squares, Match Game, The Gong Show...just good fun.

I hated those game shows...but my grandparents insisted on making us watch them.

 

RIP
