'Music Hop' in 1963 was my first hosting job of a variety program.

Take your job seriously, but don't take yourself too seriously.

I believe the 'Jeopardy!' test is more difficult than being a contestant on the program.

I liked watching myself on TV. My first job was hosting the 'Roommate Game'.

Hosting is a thankless job.

My job is to provide the atmosphere and assistance to the contestants to get them to perform at their very best. And if I'm successful doing that, I will be perceived as a nice guy, and the audience will think of me as being a bit of a star.
