George Gray (born March 11, 1967) is an American game show host and comedian, who was born in St. Louis, Missouri, but raised in Tucson, Arizona. He got his start in TV game shows by hosting Extreme Gong, an updated version of The Gong Show, on GSN in the mid-1990s. He also hosted the American version of Junkyard Wars. However, he is most famous for his period as host of the U.S. syndicated game show Weakest Link, taking over from original host Anne Robinson. It is said that this second season of the show saw Gray give the show a less sarcastic undertone than was present under Robinson.
After hosting Todd TV on FX and the GSN special National Lampoon's Greek Games, in late 2004, Gray went on to become the co-host of NBC's $25 Million Dollar Hoax and as host of ESPN's I'd Do Anything. Since 2006, he is currently the host of the HGTV show What's With That House? (aka That House).
His next project as television host will be on the upcoming reality show The Ultimate, Ultimate Challenge.
