Television host Regis Philbin spent more time in front of a TV camera than anyone in history, holding the Guinness World's Record for over 15,600 on-air hours to prove it. The wise-cracking ball of energy with the unmistakable New York accent was the longtime host of ABC's perennial favorite morning show "Live With Regis..." (syndicated, 1983- ). "Reege" also injected his dramatic flair and gift for unscripted gab into the prime time game show, "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" (ABC, 1999-2002; syndicated, 2002-09), jettisoning the sagging network back into the number one ratings slot. Never at a loss for words or quick jokes, for decades Philbin was the go-to guy when a network needed a commentator for any major pageant, parade or live TV event, as he had something trained actors and seasoned comedians did not have: the amusing and unpredictable appeal of an old-school New York "character."
