I really 💘 these rare episodes with Lou Grant and Dixie, nobody else could play Lou Grant like Ed Asner, and Julie London was the only reason I watched Emergency. Wow, Rebas something else, have you ever seen a contestant more unabashedly uninhibited?
Richard looked so sad when Dorothy had to leave, like he coulda taken her home with him. Actually didn't he invite her to stay with him when her folks go to Hawaii? Richard-- one of a kind!
H/H match update: ... We have a brand-new champion today. He solicits his three suggestions from Richard, Fannie, and Charles, and takes Richard's advice. Fannie's answer was $100, Charles had the $250 response, and our new champion won a cool $500. No surprises for the H/H match. I thought that a new champ might choose a new celeb, but no dice. Counting today, Richard has played 33 of the last 37 head-to-head matches. Today's question: "Virginia ________ " I'll say Virginia Slims since Richard is a frequent on-camera smoker. Richard thinks for a moment and then looks to the sixth chair before writing. Then he pauses, hmms, scratches his nose and pauses some more before scribbling something else down and promptly filing his answer, but not before Fannie sneaks a peak. The contestant gave my answer. Richard, however, had a different thought: "Graham". -- (Virginia Graham was a noted daytime talk show host from the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s.) 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 - 40.3% (139 wins in 345 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 608, 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!")
Yes, I thought so too, at first. But Richard reads the contestants. "How likely is it that they will say this?" Virginia Slims were marketed as a women's cigarette, whatever that means. I didn't think he would say that either. I went with Virginia Wolfe.
@@jimdavenport4484 @PistolAnnie, good point. It was out earlier outside the US, but not before 1978. (Switzerland had it that year; Canada in 1979; the UK in 1980.) And I just noticed he IS smoking in this episode, so there goes my theory that he was trying to quit. Maybe he was trying to cut back.
Gene is always lewd and suggestive, but as soon as a woman turns the tables on him he can't handle it. He could barely read the next question after that woman said she loved sex.
Suggestive sure, lewd not so much. It was all it good fun. But you have a point, Gene was thrown off his game when then contestant said she liked sex. I thought it was fun to see him tap dance his way all the way to the commercial.

How are things going with you
I really 💘 these rare episodes with Lou Grant and Dixie, nobody else could play Lou Grant like Ed Asner, and Julie London was the only reason I watched Emergency. Wow, Rebas something else, have you ever seen a contestant more unabashedly uninhibited?
John is so cute. Like a big teddy bear.
You tell 'em Fannie!! WHY NOT a Woman Host!??
The BRAND NEW..."Press Your Luck" now has a WOMAN Host!!!
They had a popular woman host of The Weakest Link but she was replaced for some reason. (Not to mention the show was cancelled shortly thereafter.)
Ah yes, press your luck...bringing in millions of viewers now since it has a female host.
@@GizmoFromPizmo
SHE was GOOD at it too!
@@MooncricketsInc
I'd SURE watch it if I could!!
I think Betty White hosted a game show at some point.
This was funneeeee!!!! Thanks MGP!!!
$12,800 in 1975 is about
$57,000 in today's money.
$72,357.35
Rita is goofy 🙄
Richard looked so sad when Dorothy had to leave, like he coulda taken her home with him. Actually didn't he invite her to stay with him when her folks go to Hawaii?
Richard-- one of a kind!
Dorothy was really lovely. She came across as such a sweetheart. I'm glad she won big.
Like another commenter said, Dorothy reminded me of the girl Richard married
They were both single so why not
He had a girlfriend named Jody at the time who was on Tattletales with him.
What does everybody use a pillow for? To rest your HEAD!

I liked Dorothy!
Was there a show when Brett wasn't coughing?
In 1973.
Coughing is a symptom, not a choice .
Long ago and far far away. Sigh.
once again i match with the contestants as they match with no one.
Virginia Slims was kind of an easy one. I'm surprised Richard missed it.
Yes, I thought so too, at first. But Richard reads the contestants. "How likely is it that they will say this?" Virginia Slims were marketed as a women's cigarette, whatever that means. I didn't think he would say that either. I went with Virginia Wolfe.
SOOooooo many Adult answers for these questions ......
Richard advising a panelist's wife "don't smoke"?! He's chewing gum in this episode, which is unusual. I wonder if it was chewing nicotine gum.
Don't think they had nicotine gum @that time....pretty sure not
Observer54321 nicotine gum didn’t come out until 1984 but people did and Im sure still do chew gum while trying to quit
@@jimdavenport4484 @PistolAnnie, good point. It was out earlier outside the US, but not before 1978. (Switzerland had it that year; Canada in 1979; the UK in 1980.) And I just noticed he IS smoking in this episode, so there goes my theory that he was trying to quit. Maybe he was trying to cut back.
Her husband had just given Virginia Slims (cigarette brand) as his big money answer
@@ariellesoullighting4309 Right, and he was making a quip about that.
Goodbye Dorothy. I will always love you.
@12:19.......uh, what?
In reference to the fact that she was pregnant.
i believe it was meant to be a joke.
IKR? Fannie's face sums it up nicely 😂😂😂
That's too funny, they made the closings credits blurry for Ed Asner vision.
Gene is always lewd and suggestive, but as soon as a woman turns the tables on him he can't handle it. He could barely read the next question after that woman said she loved sex.
Gene was not lewd or suggestive, besides pretty much all of the women contestants knew that Gene was
just having fun with them
Suggestive sure, lewd not so much. It was all it good fun. But you have a point, Gene was thrown off his game when then contestant said she liked sex. I thought it was fun to see him tap dance his way all the way to the commercial.
Reba is a definite 2 bagger.
??
@@pistolannie6500 I think he means she should wear two bags on the head because he thinks she's ugly.
Randy Dellinger was so mean.. (how mean was he?). He was so mean he made a (blank) comment about a contestant!
GROW UP!!!!!!!
@randydellinger2996 what a blank hole!
Has anyone seen the episode that Betty is talking about at the end of the video at 2:50?
