One of the most recognizable faces in game show television, he has hosted Wheel of Fortune (1975-1981), Love Connection (1983-1994), Scrabble (1984-1990, 1993), The Home and Family Show (1996-97, co-host), The Dating Game (1997-98 update), Greed (1999-2000) and Lingo (2002-present). In addition, he was the subject of a reality show, Chuck Woolery: Naturally Stoned (2003), and serves as the announcer for GSN's "coming up" bumpers. He has also been seen on television infomercials promoting a developing community Holiday Island, Arkansas. Chuck has added narration for the GSN's daytime lineup schedule since April 2005, and these bumpers run from the start of GSN's daily schedule until just before 4 PM, when the generic bumper takes the spot.
Woolery was born in Ashland, Kentucky and grew up an avid fisherman. He made his first foray into the entertainment business as a member of the band Avant-Garde with his partner Elkin "Bubba" Fowler. In 1968, Avant-Garde produced a moderate hit, Naturally Stoned (which inspired the name for Woolery's reality series on GSN).
At the urging of television host Merv Griffin, Woolery accepted hosting duties for newly created game show Wheel of Fortune in 1975. Woolery eventually left Wheel of Fortune in a salary dispute with show producers, which he has admitted was a mistake on his part. However, with his strong looks, casual wit and friendly charm, Woolery has since become one of the most respected and liked game show hosts in the business.
A born again Christian, Woolery had been married three times and has eight children. In 2006 he bought a house near Austin, Texas. Woolery often speaks enthusiatically about bass fishing and sells his own line of motorized fishing lures, MotoLures. His current game show, Lingo, is going into its fifth season on GSN. On Lingo he once identified his worst nightmare as "being attacked by a large Calico cat named Skippy". Woolery also plays on the World Poker Tour Hollywood Homes Games for the charity Safe Passage. He is known for his trademark commercial outro of "two and two" along with a two-finger hand gesture, much like a peace sign.
