The final Gong:

RIP Chuck Barris, author and TV show creator, died aged 87.


I’ll remember him best as the host of the talent show spoof: The Gong Show.


It was crazy and hilarious: the contestants … the panelists … Gene, Gene, The Dancing Machine … The Unknown Comic … 


... and Chuck himself:


 “We’ll be right back … with more STUFF … after this message!”
