Guess I've been mispronouncing it this whole time!

A few nights ago I watched an episode of The F.B.I. For those who've seen any Quinn Martin produced crime show, you know the opening credits feature images of the main stars and guest stars with an announcer speaking their names (the names are not printed on screen).
The episode I watched had guest star Paul Lukas in a special role. But the announcer did not pronounce it as Paul LUCAS (which is how I thought it was said)...he instead said Paul LOO-KOSS, with the emphasis on the second syllable.
On another QM crime drama, Cannon with William Conrad, Sheree North was a guest star. I always thought her first name was pronounced like Mon Cherie. But the announcer schooled me once again and said it is pronounced SHARE-EE North (like cooking sherry).
Live and learn!
