His singing voice is so unique and impossible to reproduce, "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts" will always go down as one of the greatest songs ever sung by him!
Now he and his "dahling" Eva Gabor are happlily reunited in the afterlife. They're probably having a ball with the Nixons, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagain, all all their other dearly departed Hollywood friends.
Merv was great. As a Canadian, I feel Americans do the best in variety television, with a legacy after Merv that includes Letterman, O'Brien, and a host of others. We do absurd comedy well, but on the spot and live--best stuff south of the border, and Merv was certainly one of the funniest, warmest individuals in the business!

Of all the Merv Griffin interviews, the one that comes to mind first is his 70s show with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Just read the Darwin Porter biography on Merv. Fascinating. And we'll be back after these messages...

The info on this story is wrong; Griffin never hosted Jeopardy, he created it, along with Wheel of Fortune.

I saw his grave the other day at Westwood Memorial. It says: Merv Griffin, 'I will not be back after this commercial message' Very funny:)

With Merv's passing, the Hollywood we, {in our 40s and beyond}, knew is officially gone, too... They will be sadly missed.

Change the video description. Merv wasn't the host of Jeopardy! He created the show Art Fleming was the host and then Alex Trebek took over in 1984.
