ATTENTION ALL MATCH GAME FANS! The USPS announced today that our beloved BETTY WHITE will be honored on a forever stamp beginning on what would’ve been Betty’s 101st birthday. WE LOVE YOU BETTY!
Love the cards to Johnny O!!! 😂😂 Fannie and Richard are such professionals. 😍 And Esther... I'd a million times rather see her than Jimmy Walker!! She's *actually* educated, intelligent, creative and funny. He just thought he was. IMO
H/H match update: ... Last episode our new new champion called on Fannie, Richard, and Esther for her audience match suggestions, and won $250 with Fannie's answer just as time ran out. Today we start right off with the H/H match... And... our champion follows the herd by choosing... well, you know... (Of the last 27 H/H matches, Richard has played all but 2!) Today's question: "________ Beam" Another classic H/H match that has several possible good answers. I'll just say balance beam since I won't be winning anything no matter what I say! Richard wrote quickly, but then hesitated and it looked like he wrote a new answer. The contestant looks dejected, already sensing she won't win. She says "Laser beam" (which is a good answer!). Moderate audience response. Gene says "Eight people applauded - nine, I beg your pardon." Richard began spouting out possible answers, and for a moment I was sure he'd matched. He doesn't usually toy with a contestant when he doesn't match. But, he finally reveals his answer: "Moon Beam." (A solid attempt.) No match today. Here's the updated 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 - 52.6% (10 wins in 19 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 - 40.1% (135 wins in 337 attempts). Brett - 38.0% (19 wins in 50 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 598, 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!")
At 4:00....considering his temporary absence at the time....I'd have gone for the obvious laugh.....with the one truly definitive answer....Johnny Olson
Kim is such a cutie, OMG! But "cow?" I just couldn't believe it, my jaw literally dropped. It actually sounds kind of like a Far Side cartoon, but that wouldn't be around for another ten years. And it would still be a lousy answer.
Long time fans of Doonesbury will recall Zonker passing around a joint in the huddle, much to quarterback BD's frustration. Those early strips would have appeared by 1975, I wonder if some of the writers were fans?
Does anybody know why Game Show Network doesn't air these episodes? I've been watching for a few years now, and they just seem to show 1974, 1977, and 1978 in rotation.
That wasn't my point. I was just wondering, if these episodes did air on the station at one point (whomever downloaded this recorded it from the network because the GSN logo is shown in the corner, and the closing credits show GSN commercials), then why don't they show them anymore? Like I said before, they keep showing the same episodes from 74, 77, and 78 in order. If they have eps from 75 and 76 in their archives, why don't we see them on GSN? Just curious, not complaining.
I think that hand laundry question was awful. Hair makes sense to me because you use your hands to wash your hair (or you wash your hair with your hands). If hands is the “obvious” answer, then that makes the question just stupid, imho.
I Would've Like To Hear Bern Bennett Say His Closing Spiel "This Is Bern Bennett Speaking For Match Game '75 A Mark Goodson Bill Todman Production Stay Tune For Tattletales Next Over Most of The CBS Stations" But We Don't Have An Unedited Version of The Bern Bennett Episodes Of Match Game
Bern Bennett, he’s famous for being the announcer for almost 30 years of announcing the CBS soap “The Young and the Restless” and also “The Bold and the Beautiful.”
On this date in 1959, Weird Al was born.. He wrote greats like CNR, I lose On Jeopardy!, Stuck in a closed with Vanna White and was on special additions of Wheel of Fortune, Family Double Dare, VH! Rock And Roll Jeopardy and Remote Control. Althou not mentioned by name Gene does "appears" in the song CNR, "Everyday he made the host of Match Game give him a piggy back ride." ;0) I had wondered why he was in the book This Day In Game Show history but I had forgotten, and I can't believe I did being a huge fan of his, he wrote those songs.. (Hand to forehead) ;0) Not that anyone is interested. grr But anyway back to your regular schedule MG already in progress.. ;0)
I would love to find out how many times CNR copied Brett’s answer over the years. More than 50%? Brett even says “just copy my answer, dear” just over halfway through this episode
Free spirit flying! ;0) ROFL! Another fine episode! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Gene! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Charles! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Fannie! :0) ROFL! Love the entrances, silliness, voices, acting and the fun Gene! ;0) ROFL!

Charles! ;0) cig! ;0) hair! ;0) boo! ;0) Oh that pretty dumb isn't it.. ;0) If Dora played she
Saw this for the first time today... Charles at 14:25 was KILLING ME!!! What a riot
He was great! Would have loved to hang with him
The poor thing. Did you see the hole in his shoes in the last episode at 14:14?
CNR was a comedy gym!
Watching repeat broadcasts of both the CBS daytime and syndicated evening versions of "Match Game" takes me back to my childhood in the 1970's. :)
OMG Fannie at 7:47 - one of the best ad libs ever!
I lost it when CNR said, “ it’s better than cow!” 😂😂
14:26 omg Charles puts me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣
5:21 😂

14:24 And the oscar for best stoned out of his head performance goes to Charles Nelson Reily, lol!
LOL! Exactly, Serg T Channel!

Kim reminds me of Anette O'toole. So pretty
Kim is such a cutie, OMG! But "cow?" I just couldn't believe it, my jaw literally dropped. It actually sounds kind of like a Far Side cartoon, but that wouldn't be around for another ten years. And it would still be a lousy answer.

Laura reminded of a cross between Dinah Shore and Lilly Tomlin back at this time
Uncle Chuck and a joint 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Laura was beautiful I'm glad she keeps winning

Kathi Heckenlively Let’s be happy that these episodes are up on the TH-cam channel here for everybody to enjoy

Kathi Heckenlively simple answer is they don’t have the rights to these episodes. I wish they were shown more
Try watching on Buzzr...they show episodes from '73, '75, and '79.
@@user-mj8nf2vp7q My cable carrier doesn't have Buzzr.
13:30 And how many episodes between this and the appearance of Chris Cranston?
Kim needed Joyce Bulifant to match her in the tie breaker.
It may be the only released by current owner episodes they have, Kathy. Also not all episodes may have been transferred to modern video.
Bern bennett announcing here
Balance beam.
But no one said JIM BEAM?
Marvin Meeker , 😄
I said Lazer beam lol
I think that hand laundry question was awful. Hair makes sense to me because you use your hands to wash your hair (or you wash your hair with your hands). If hands is the “obvious” answer, then that makes the question just stupid, imho.
it was dumb Dora, the sign said hand washing, so she went in to get her hands washed😉

We may have something......MGPM #19 may have a special voice heard!
A cow was sitting next to me ?
One of the worst answers I've heard in nearly 600 episodes. The audience was too stunned to even boo properly
8:52 watch closely. Do i see Richard grabbing Gene's leg?
Yes...wth.
Yes, and it looks like his hand is going higher. Rumor has it dawson went “both” ways.
These hammmy "actors" that are contestants 🙄
Choosing the one who gave you the rotten Snow Shoes for the head to head, you certainly deserved not to get a match.
Who the hell is announcing?
Bern Bennett, he’s famous for being the announcer for almost 30 years of announcing the CBS soap “The Young and the Restless” and also “The Bold and the Beautiful.”
excelsciors Ummmm who’s doing a comparison?? 🤔🤔🤔
@@a.b.sproductionsllc Thank you..
How many times does Richard pantomime Stan Laurel?
Abraham Beame (then the Mayor of New York City).....en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Beame
He was a horrible mayor.
Free spirit is flying again! They still reined him in too much thou.. ;0)
I thought we were done with the Game Show Network copies of Match Game. I don't like how GSN mangles the end credits of each show.
A joint
And Charles pretended to have one!
