Game show host Tom Kennedy, 93

He was a great host on everything he did, especially the $100,000 Name that Tune. May he forever RIP.

I remember his brother Jack Narz who was one of the best game show hosts in the early days of these shows. RIP Tom Kennedy.

Didn't Narz get caught up in the quiz show scandal and have to leave television for a while? I know he came back to host several shows in later years. I assume Tom was his younger brother. Was he even doing game shows during the time the fixing was going on?

I believe Narz was caught up in the scandals and had to leave for awhile. Jack Barry an early game show host was involved too. He hosted "21" which was the show that the scandal was focused on.
 
While the show Narz hosted, Dotto, was implicated in the Quiz Show Scandals, Narz himself was absolved of any wrongdoing.
 
Narz did the '70s syndicated Concentration revival. Of course Hugh Downs, who just passed away recently, did the original for NBC.
