Bob Wells is a former news/weather anchor and television personality who is best known to Cleveland, Ohio, television viewers as "Hoolihan the Weatherman" and one half of the Hoolihan and Big Chuck Show movie-hosting team. The show appeared on Friday nights, from December 23, 1966 to August 1979, a successful 13-year run, beating Johnny Carson in the ratings on that one night per week. Wells and partner Chuck Schodowski replaced the late legendary television personality "Ghoulardi" in 1966 at the then CBS affiliate WJW Channel 8, when Anderson left for Los Angeles to pursue a free-lance announcing career.
