9 Times Game Show Hosts Went Too Far

Who hasn’t dreamed of being on a game show? Getting the opportunity to duke it out in a battle of wits and luck on live television for the chance of winning stacks of cash or luxurious prize packages sounds pretty amazing right? Not to mention, you get to meet one of the TVs legendary game show hosts, and how exciting would that be?

We grew up watching the likes of Alex Trebek on Jeopardy and Pat Sajak on Wheel Of Fortune – and maybe they seem like perfectly pleasant professionals with nothing to hide, but nobody featured in this video has a perfect track record. That being said, some hosts have definitely overstepped their bounds more than others.

Well, we here at Facts Verse got out our trusty magnifying glasses and did a little sleuthy detective work to dig up some dirt on some of television’s most recognizable personalities and turns out, they aren’t nearly as innocent as you think they are.

Game show hosts in the past have been known to take things a little too far at times. Sometimes they innocently have flubbed up their lines and other times they have abused their position of authority to push themselves upon their guests in ways that would be strongly condemned today. We’re going to take a look back in time at some of the most shocking over-stepping of boundaries that have ever happened on TV game shows. None of your favorite game show hosts are immune to their own share of pervy creepiness either.

Even Game Show legends and institutions like Wheel Of Fortunes Pat Sajak or Jeopardy’s Alex Trebek have their fair share of questionable moments that made us all cringe. But you’re going to want to stick around for our last list item. This game show host has gone above and beyond anyone else’s missteps and has probably even broken the law for the world to see on camera. He is more than just a creepy old man, but he is likely a criminal deserving of serious retribution. So stick around so you don’t miss that one, but be warned, what you see might shock and disgust you.
