      choclytgremlins He wanted the fair outcome on both MG and FF. If you want another prime example of bad judging look up Match Game 77 Richard Explodes Again. Its just like this. The contestant gave the answer of 'bag'. Some celebs wrote paper bag/sack which were considered matches. Richard wrote plastic baggie and was buzzed. Ira refused to match him since paper and plastic dont match. But the contestant never specified a particular bag. As long as its a bag shoudlnt it match???? Richard got a bit agitated that time too and rightly so.

      CULTURED pearls would certainly fit (go to) "finishing school" perfectly! And "night school" fits because of the idea of education. I think Charles was allowed because he circled "school", he's designated the main part of his answer that way before. The judge's decisions were outrageous, an exact answer wasn't required for first and second round questions.

    • @MoonshineBootleg
      @MoonshineBootleg 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      My impression is that the Dawson/Producer conflicts on MG/FF came from the fact that Richard always had the contestant's back no matter what. The producers didn't like it because it cost them prize money/fed Richard's ego, but at the same time, Richard knew that the whole point of the game was for the contestants to relax, have fun, and win some money. I really think a lot of the stories about Richard Dawson being some monstrous egomaniac are either false or grossly exaggerated by Hollywood execs who thought they ruled the world. Watch Howie Felscher in the Family Feud doc on E! and tell me that's a reliable witness.

    • @jasonbeard4713
      @jasonbeard4713 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Asner and Brett's answers were technically correct, although not the exact word. Charles enclosed the word in a box, so it is a general and rightfully accepted. Debralee and Richard's answer, while specific, DID contain the word school, even though it's a grey area. Richard was correct. College is not the word 'school', but it is a higher form of the word. Patti's answer should have been accepted, as college classes could be scheduled at night, hence night school. Match Game's lax rules caused many problems. Take a look at the response in the final CBS episode. Gene said the contestant's answer had to be the exact match. She responded "Snug as a bug in a rug". Brett's answer was "Snug as a bug", and the judges accepted that answer.

    The general rule, as I understood it, is that you can't match a general "school" with a specific, "Finishing School" and "Night School". They should NOT have accepted "Scuba Diving School".

    Unfortunately, not they should not have. The rule was used multiple times throughout the series.

    The Match Game judge was so bad...(how bad was he)...he was so bad that instead of judging match game he should have judged BLANK.

    The game shows at that time were under strict judging rules dating from the 50s Quiz Show scandals...Gene could NOT have overruled or have replaced the judge appointed by CBS Practices and standards.

    Betty was a semi-regular, along with the late Debralee Scott and Patti Deutsch on this clip.

    I was talking about the regulars (Gene, Richard before he left to host Family Feud, Brett, and Charles). Betty wasn't a regular, but she showed up a lot of times.

    @Gnillob802 just curious do you have any proof to back up this statement?

    My only possible explanation is that the judges were confused mid-way through and thought he said college, which is a specific type of school. Not trying to defend the judges, but trying to figure out how this could have happened

      2:30 Not judges. A judge. My theory about how everything went off the rails is that the judge got pissed at the way Charles argued his case. (Spelling out school & talking down to him.) And then the judge decided to flex his authority w/Debralee & Richard. It was a battle of egos & the poor contestant was caught in the middle of it.

    If I recall correctly, he did lose this one - but was invited back within a couple of weeks (and lost again).
