Bill Rafferty passes

[CardSharks8689]

It's true that I haven't been on this fourm as often as I wanted to. However, I when I found about this I had to step in. By the way I am Bill Rafferty's 1st Cousin Twice Removed. Anyway, I'm shocked to find out about his passing.

Very sorry to hear about your loss. And welcome back to the forums, Gymrat215.

I added you as a friend, btw.

Very sad. No Twitter, Facebook or any kind of GSN tribute

You're really trying to grasp at straws at here. Sad state of affairs. A very obscure host could pass away, and you'd be... "GSN doesn't have a tribute prepared. Screw them."

I could be a lot more negative about this. In fact, I'm not being negative at all. It's just that only three years ago GSN aired his version of Card Sharks, and in 2009 he was also a guest on one of their shows

So be it

Well, you're acting like GSN has committed all of the seven deadly sins.

Yes they have. Acquiring Dancing with the Stars was five of them

R.I.P.

One of the most underrated game show hosts, along with Bob Goen.
If GSN aired Acey Deucey, they probably would have aired his episodes as a tribute.

That's probably the only set of circumstances in which GSN would have aired his episodes as a tribute, and probably just a short one at that.

It probably still would have been Card Sharks. It makes me wonder if Perry/Eubanks Card Sharks still aired on GSN if their would be some sort of small tribute, because it was another version of Rafferty's show
