RIP Dick Tufeld, voice of 'Lost in Space' Robot, 85

'Danger, Will Robinson!'  Dick Tufeld's most famous role may have been as the voice of the robot on 'Lost in Space,' but his announcing career was long and varied.

wow, he was one of those "I thought he already died" guys.  "This is Dick Tufeld speaking" was heard at the end of many a variety show and special (I believe he was the announcer on the Oscars quite a few times back in the day).
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
