If I didn't read the description I wouldn't have realized it myself. At the time he was only involved in the first game show of his career, "Play Your Hunch", which he hosted for Goodson and Todman for four years. The first show he produced on his own was "Word for Word" in 1963, which he also hosted. In 1964, he started producing a little quiz game, which would become known as "Jeopardy!" by the time it made it to air. I wonder what became of that show? ;)

@@Lisa-di1wi It was Merv's wife Julann who gave him the basic idea for "Jeopardy!". He'd been lamenting the lack of any quiz shows since the scandals, so she suggested a game where the contestants were given the answers. "Sure, and I'll end up in the slammer," he replied. Then she said, "5280," and Merv caught on: "How many feet are in a mile?" Correct. Julann: "79 Wistful Vista." Merv: "What was Fibber McGee and Molly's address?" Correct again. Merv knew now that she had something. The rest, as they say, is history.
