Wink Martindale is best known as host of "Tic Tac Dough". The game show, from the minds of Jack Barry & Dan Enright, aired on CBS in 1978, but lasted until 1986 in syndication. Interestingly enough, Barry himself hosted the original version of the classic game show dating as far back as 1956 on NBC, per the show's Wikipedia page. The same Jack Barry that also hosted, created & executive produced "The Joker's Wild".

Wink's passing came 1 day after Game Show Network debuted the 4th version of "Tic Tac Dough", this time with onetime former "Baywatch" star Brooke Burns. Game Show Network's new version of "TTD" premiered Monday.
