H/H match update: ... Our stalwart regulars Charles, Richard, and Brett are joined by all "veterans" (as Gene puts it) once again for this 112th week of Match Game which originally aired in late September and early October 1975. Bill Daily returns for his third of 15 total weeks on the program. Since he's already scored 2 H/H matches (in just 2 attempts), one more match will promote him to the big leader board. Dr. Joyce Brothers is back as well, for her second of four total weeks. She has yet to play a H/H match. Maybe this will be her week? And for our sixth-seat semi-regular we have Patti Deutsch. Appearing 42 weeks total, she's #7 on the list of most frequent Match Game celebs (just behind Gary with 43 weeks). Patti has had two goes at the H/H match, scoring a win in episode 538. Guess what? No one other than Richard has scored a single H/H match since then! In fact, since episode 538, Richard has been chosen practically every single time. Brett had a try in 541 and Betty in 555, and that's it. Of those 14 H/H attempts, Richard matched 6 times. Will this be another all-Richard week? No H/H match today! This is the third Monday in a row that the contestant struck out on the audience match board... What's interesting is that the last two times, what happened was the contestant took Richard's suggestion and it didn't even appear on the board, and Richard didn't apologize or say a peep. Today, when his suggestion isn't taken, and it turns out to be the $500 response, he makes a point of chiding the contestant and telling her that she should have trusted him... Here's the current leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: Orson Bean - 100% (4 wins in 4 attempts). Gary Burghoff - 83.3% (5 wins in 6 attempts). TIE: Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). Fannie - 50% (9 wins in 18 attempts). Betty - 46.9% (15 wins in 32 attempts). Charles - 45.2% (19 wins in 42 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 39.0% (119 wins in 305 attempts). Brett - 38.3% (18 wins in 47 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 556, excluding the lost/missing episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325. (As per MatchGameProductions, these episodes "are nowhere to be found and also aren't in the Goodson/Todman Library. Sadly, looks like they are lost forever!")
Those cardigan sweaters were a popular item back then. I thankfully don't remember Gene ever in a leisure suit. Cheers Match Game lovers. Funnily Gene mentioned the music theme (either this episode or last) that the theme music wasn't memorable, but all these years later it is !
Won't they talking about the think music? I thought Gene did twice, once in MG73 and then MG75 ep eariler this week or are those not leisure suits? But of course Gene had the rep of being the best dress person in the business always wearing nice trad suits that were timeless.. ;0)
@@sdlively27 Charles Nelson Reilly talked about the think music once, joking that it just keeps going on and on and on, the same damn music over the last two years (he said this in 1975).
I know, Brett was usually the one who did that, though Charles comes in second place. It works out for the contestant though because if the word they said appears in all those cards, they got the game point.
@@hibiscusfreak Wonder why they waited that long, they seem to be back fairly quickly after Gene messes up the question.. That a couple of weeks, it seems like the following weeks they bring them back..
And speaking of "In the Jungle", that song can be heard inside the original Match Game theme song. Give it a listen and you'll see what I mean. Start singing the theme song right around the part where they start singing, "A weem-a-wep, a weem-a-wep, a weem-a-wep": th-cam.com/video/OQlByoPdG6c/w-d-xo.html
I was around in 1975, and I think it didn't have anything to do with Methodists in particular. Methodists were just one denomination that sent missionaries to places where cannibals were (allegedly). And the cannibals found the missionaries tasty, got hooked, and came hunting/shopping for more.
"George the cannibal does his shopping in the _______." At first I thought of "head shop" but I'm not sure that the older celebs would think of that. So I said "body shop." Haven't watched the answers yet to see what everyone said. Just came to the comments to see what YOU all said.
I thought of "in the parking lot." He doesn't shop inside the store, instead he lurks outside and selects people coming and going to the store. No matches, but it wasn't any worse than the other answers.
Kirkpatrick-Gray, round 1, question A: "At the UNEMPLOYMENT OFFICE; it's so much cheaper." (Bzzt!) Round 2, question A: "Hate me all you like, folks, I said UMPIRE." (Bzzt!) Question B: "Not just glued, but SUPER-GLUED!" (Ding!) Super Match: ARRANGED Kirkaptrick-Molo, round 1, question B: "No, he WENT SWIMMING in it; it rusted shut, and they had to get him out with a crowbar." (Bzzt!)
He was onwith a girlfriend that he lived with,😢 I think. I saw that once and they said that that was his girlfriend. they were, I think, engaged but they never got married, I don't think.
Richard tells Margot, she should trust him, yet only one or two audience matches ago, contestant chose his and it wasn't even on the board, causing a loss.
@@Observer-jw8wv I'd say that, if anything, it was ruder then than it would be now. It was just one of those slightly shocking things that Gene did. I'm beginning to wonder whether he did it because it gave him an "excuse" to get close to the people. He seemed to have issues about being respected and (abusing) his authority and other people's space.
@@LynxSouth Oh, I have to disagree. Gene was joking and most of the celebs didn't mind. They knew how he was. But Gene loved the pretty women no doubt. But if there was a new female celebrity that was never on before it might of embarrassed them. But they all loved Gene. There was a lot of sex jokes on that show and Gene and Brett and Richard mostly, joked every day about something. As far as today goes, I don't believe anything about sex bothers/embarrasses hardly anyone. (Especially this generation) Or joking about roots of their hair. This era colors their hair all different colors. Most aren't embarrassed of squat. They were tame in the 70s compared to now. By a long shot. imho
That was really odd. I'd like to know why. She did in effect say hello to them. The only thing I can imagine is it would take too much time and/or the producers would rather use the short few seconds to get a sense of the contestant. Edit: I just read up on a few things, not this specifically, but producers like to make people not sound boring. So saying a tidbit about your life is more interesting and unique than giving a boring shout out to people we don't know. So if every contestant gave shout outs, it'd just be a bunch of boring people saying hi to family and nothing to make them stand out as an individual.
@@LynxSouth Yes it was an FCC rule I believe, but it was one of those rules that contestants violated all the time, their "hellos" were done with a wink.
Dum-bum, dum-be-dum-be-dum...etc. I can't get it out of my head! Don't try to hum the melody, it's barely there. It's all about the bass line. True, it is monotonous... but it's memorable, like the Jeopardy! final question music.

Iam surprised that question wasnt thrown out!
They even matched cemented with glued? So unfair to Don!
I was thinking the same thing!!
Well glue and cement are both an adhesive substance used for sticking objects or materials together.
I think she already had the answer in her head, and I'm sure it was by mistake that he said what he said
I glanked them to my eyes, haha! 😅 😅 total mistake
I think they should have brought Don back for another chance.
Cemented and glued are not the same. Am I wrong? That was weird.
Wow! Gene really !moves himself🤔🤔🤔 l have always wonder why he never won an Emmy?? Does anyone know?🤔🤔🤗🤗🤗
The crowd reactions to a bad answer are comparable to the crowds at the Roman coliseum demanding blood!

Episode 551. Gene wore a leisure suit and a turtle neck!
Excuse me, but cement IS NOT the same as glue. Last time I looked, there are not sidewalks made out of glue . They should bring back that man.
Different kinds of cement !!!😅😅😅
I don't think the celebrities should get away with three answers like Brett's "glued, pasted and/or taped". Taped is not the same as glued.
I know, Brett was usually the one who did that, though Charles comes in second place. It works out for the contestant though because if the word they said appears in all those cards, they got the game point.
I know the old commercials, but the cannibals would do their shopping in the WHITE pages.!.
Poor Don! Since when is cemented the same as glued?
Lynne R Yeah, that one ticked me off. 😣
I just saw 1975 episode 581. They brought him back.

Model glue is sometimes called cement. God knows why.

I was thinking Nudist Coloney . He say yellow pages. No wonder they boo them
How about "Meat" Market?
Gene was sweet, he was making sure Earl was ok before he continued with the game
Can anyone explain the Methodist Church answer for the cannibal question? It's a wee bit before my time.
