Tier 1

Barker
Trebek
Sajak

Tier 2
Monty Hall - (Let's Make a Deal)
Chuck Woolery (The Love Connection)
Richard Dawson (Family Feud)
Bob Eubanks (The Newlywed Game)
Dick Clark (The $10,000 Pyramid)

Tier 3
Gene Rayburn (The Match Game)
Wink Martindale (Tic-Tac-Dough)
Regis Philbin (Who Wants to be a Millionaire)
Allen Ludden (Password)
Peter Tomarken (Press your Luck)

Tier 4
Drew Carey (Price is right)
Wayne Brady (Let's make a Deal)
Howie Mandel (Deal or no deal)
Bert Convy (Super Password)


Does Survivor count as a gameshow? If so Jeff Probst may be a tier 2 or 3 candidate for longevity alone.

In the same vein, is Star Search a gameshow? If so, then we'd have to consider Ed McMahon.

What about America's Funniest Videos?

That's an interesting name because I would have first thought of him with Tattletales then Win, Lose or Draw.

If you move Dawson up to tier 1, and Rayburn up to tier 2, I think you pretty much nailed it with your list.
