Burton Richardson (born September 25, 1949, in Portland, Oregon) is a premier American television announcer. He announced The Arsenio Hall Show from 1989 to 1994, where he became known for his long-drawn-out introduction of the show's host: "ARSENIOOOOOOO... HALL!" Richardson has also announced various game shows, including Rodeo Drive, Russian Roulette, WinTuition, the 1990 and 2000 versions of To Tell the Truth, the 1999-present version of Family Feud, and the short-lived 1994 syndicated version of The Price Is Right (he also served as a fill-in on the daytime version).

Richardson has also worked as a substitute announcer on some game shows.
