"Bingo America" Hosted by Patrick Duffy

30th January

Patrick Duffy is the host of "Bingo America," a new 40-episode half-hour interactive game show series on GSN.

"Bingo America" combines elements of a quiz show with the game of bingo.

"Bingo America," comes from Andrew Glassman, the creator of "National Bingo Night," will debut March 31 and air weeknights at 7 p.m., with repeats on weekends at 4:30 p.m.

Duffy, famous for his roles on "Dallas" and "Step by Step," admits that he is a fan of game shows, "especially the classics."

Because "bingo is such a family pastime," Glassman said he was looking for a TV star that is linked with playing good-guy characters.

"Patrick embodies everything we wished for -- not only is he television's marquee good-guy leading man, he is also playful and has a great sense of humor," Glassman said.
