It seems to me that Gene Wood was more excitable on Tattletales than any of the other game shows.
Can anyone figure why this was?

Gene Wood was locked in a frozen hyperbaric chamber inbetween every single game show he was on. It wasn't for any real reason, and he never understood why, but it was placed in his contract with Mark Goodson-Bill Todman that he wasn't allowed to escape this chamber unless it was to go to the microphone and announce the game and tell you about Creamettes, the delicious macaroni that cooks just right. For some reason, Gene's contract said that if he were on a game show that referred to the color yellow as "banana", he was broken from the chamber and could live his life a free man. That's why he was so excited; he was so busy thinking about all of the laser tag adventures he could go on now that he was no longer in his frozen hyperbaric chamber, and it's all thanks to Bert Convy's love for banana bread making him want to name the yellow section "the banana section" in that treat's honor. This led to Convy and Wood's lifelong friendship that included Win, Lose, or Draw and Super Password.
None of what I said is true.
Gene Wood was excitable on early episodes of Family Feud. He was excitable on random episodes of Classic Concentration. Sometimes your producer calls for you to be more excitable, sometimes they don't. Your producer doesn't have to give a reason, sometimes they just decide to because they feel like it. Sometimes Gene felt like adding more oomph to his announcing, sometimes he didn't. Just because you watched three episodes of Tattletales and decided "wow, Gene is the most excited when he's announcing Tattletales" doesn't mean he went out of his way JUST for Tattletales to decide he wanted to be more excited on the show.
