The worst ever
game-show host was Mickie the Chinchilla. Given the presenting gig on the New
Zealand show Dung or Dosh in 2004 on the
strength of winning pet talent show And
He Can Lick Himself Too….,
Mickie was shocked by the loud applause of the crowd, and spent the show
urinating frequently in a panic, biting 3 contestants and eventually dying of a
heart-attack when an on-stage pyrotechnic went off by mistake.
