Child's Play (game Show) - Hosts and Announcers

Hosts and Announcers

Child's Play was hosted by game show veteran Bill Cullen (who had just finished hosting NBC's Blockbusters). This was both Cullen's final game for CBS and his last for Mark Goodson, ending a 30 year association with the Goodson company as an emcee. Gene Wood was the primary announcer for the entire run, with Johnny Gilbert and Bob Hilton (who also announced on the pilot) filling in on occasion.

Cullen first plugged the show during his only appearance on Bob Barker's version of The Price Is Right (Cullen hosted the original version of Price from 1956–1965, although this was not mentioned in his appearance with Barker).
