Bill Cullen wasn't just a game show host. Here are some clips from his weekly 15-minute variety show which ran on CBS during the 1952-53 TV season:

I've always loved game shows, and my favorite host when I was a kid was Bill Cullen. One of my earliest memories was watching Three On A Match, which he hosted.

A variety show that's just 15 minutes long? Attention spans must have been really short in the 1950s.

Cullen was great. Along with Allen Ludden, the top of the game show host heap.
