3:34 I just saw that episode today on GSN (12/07/2023)! This is the ONLY show I watch on GSN. You can keep Steve Harvey and the rest, the 70's was the best time for game shows!
@@drewski1535 And I think because in the 70s they have to be more censorious, it made it funnier with the double entendre. Also, they could drink. And Gene's just funny.
MY TOP 10 Match Game Fails: 10. You’re late holding the sign up 9. Batman and Robin 8. Ladies 7. Sir Irving 6. Clean his weapon 5. Camera 4. Cuckoo 3. Retired 2. Pretty dimples 1. Bazzums
I think I’m starting to develop one lol also I think most people have crushes on actors who where in movies / tv shows that were made way before they were born. 99% of my celebrity crushes are from stuff that was way before I was born lol
I just made the mistake of watching this on my work lunch break. My office co-workers must think I'm nuts cause this clip had me laughing so hard...😂😂😂
Sounds like a TPIR buzzer. I liked when they did a sound like a "moo" from a Fisher Price Barnyard set for Brett. th-cam.com/video/8Af79OyQsy8/w-d-xo.html
They should have used it a lot more often...especially in a losing situation at any point either in the regular game, super match, or head to head. Or when a really stupid answer was given.
5:12 - 5:51 I love how they kept buzzing Richard during that rant of his, and then as he was going "I agree the other thing was fair, but that was not fair," they upped to the other buzzer/horn sound. 😂 🤣😂 🤣😂 🤣😂 🤣😂 🤣😂 🤣
@@ukrandr he must have hidden it in trusts or something for his kids.... he had 3 kids an ex wife, a wife and four grandkids.... he was in so many movies and shows that there is no way he had only 100k.... he died of throat cancer right after being diagnosed...
I always laughed so hard. Everyone was so funny on that show. The reruns of the show gets played here in Minneapolis on the buzzer game channel. Gene was always funny
There are no bloopers on Match Game. The goofs all stayed on the show! 🤣🤣 Match Game was insane even BEFORE they had their ... er, well-lubricated ... lunch, and that's why we all loved it.
Half these game shows on tv nowadays don't have the energy that match game had. We could use a revival of these shows with the same energy they had back then
@@ky-gp4sz and incredibly raunchy. What made the 70s version great was that you couldn't say that stuff outright. Part of the fun was coming up with ways to say things. With today's version, they just straight up say it and it's no fun.
John, the FUN is gone because the TV laws are such that EVERYTHING has to be politically correct. God forbid everyone just relaxes, NO way. Every word said has to be scripted perfectly or someone will be offended, so we have what we have STIFF NO fun politically correct game shows. SAD, VERY SAD
So true ! That show could never survive in todays hyper-sensitive world where offending someone is a more serious crime than first degree murder. Twitterverse would erupt ! Media outlets would report on what three people said on Twitter! Gene Rayburn would be suspended! CBS would issue an apology ! Surely one day the pendulum will swing back, probably when this generation of snowflakes starts having grandchildren.
I almost fell out of my chair laughing during the exchange between Gene and Charles about Fat Frieda and the Indian chief, it was hilarious because of the camera man stood on the first camera the entire time and Gene was constantly telling them to. "Get off the one its my show and you'll do what I tell you."
His occasional fits no matter how large was why the show was a hit. His fit was all in fun. The crazier the antics, no matter who was doing it, the better. George Rayburn made the show. It was the number 1 game show at the time. He also had a tight time limit.There were at least 2 commercial breaks in a half an hour show, so he sometimes had to get them to hurry.
These game shows, back in the day, are actually the reason I wish I were famous back then. Looked like fun and they were getting paid to do it. Easy money.
That's exactly how Brett put it when she talked about Match Game. She said it was fun, easy, and got paid good. I heard they taped the shows every other weekend. So 4 days a month!
4:47, did Richard really think he'd get away with an explanation like that? "I didn't write sat on! Ate was my answer!" Did he think the judges were that stupid?
Gene Rayburn was silly. He was terrific. Laugh out loud funny! Thanks for sharing.
Yes, watching these again after all these years made me laugh my blank off
Indubidubly 🙂
The pinnacle of classic game show comedy chaos!!!! They just don't make 'em like this anymore. Comedy gold standard here.
The cocktail of personalities was perfect.
So were the cocktails...
Betty White lifting her skirt and inviting the camera was gold, love her soooo much!
Gene was such a goofball. But that is exactly why I love him. I love Match Game and it's crazy moments.
Nothing like the robots of todays personalities on tv
No Gene No Show. and Charles
Gene's the best, and so was the Match Game, when HE hosted it!
HE
Real
Laugh-till-you-cry hilarity. Pure comedy gold!
2:28 This is one of the many reasons why I love Betty White.
Yes, her play towards the new camera was Gold!!!
“At least wait until she gives her rotten answer!”
That was a good moment. I liked fanny's last answer and the improv act afterward.

Agreed!!
There will NEVER a game show like this.
Not very PC, but alot of fun and silliness.
Never ever
Who else loves the 70's version of TMG
Me!!!
Golden age of television!!!!
I cringe seeing the one with Alec Baldwin thats over the top poor entertainment

I watched the original show and then again the reruns on GSN and they were just as funny.Nobody was as funny as Gene.
Same
Every time Brett laughed, an angel got its wings
No
I loved Brett Somers.
When me & my mom were living together back in the early 10's we'd watch match game in the mornings on GSN. Every episode made us laugh.
I love watching the reruns. I laugh so hard I cry.
70's MATCH GAME..... THE BEST!!!
Used to watch these reruns as a kid with my brothers and my mom as a kid
The best game show ever
Scoey’s “George Wallas” was genius
Scoey was brilliant. Great angry stare
With two s’s at the end…. Wallass
Loved Scoey on Match Game and on Tattletales with his fabulous wife Claire.
Match Game was great and I'm glad it still comes on Buzzr.
I'm so glad I'm happy to watch reruns of it on gsn and on buzzr!
I cried at the Scooey George Wallace answer
George Wallass
FTFY 😝
Priceless, and so ahead of its time for the atmosphere of that time.
Brett's Laugh! ♥️😂
When Charles had toenail I lost it 🤣
I couldn't believe it either!!
Gene, Richard, and Charles were the best part about this game show
Drew and Brett Somers too never forget about Brett
Betty White too ! Fannie Flagg !
Hudson Graham NEVER forget Brett
I'll say they were huge, but there were others who were hilarious as well.
11:37 boy I don't blame Fannie! 😍
I think she was ready, and serious. What a cutie!!
Anyone else have a crush on Richard (even though this show was on before they were born)? May he Rest In Peace.
I think I’m starting to develop one lol also I think most people have crushes on actors who where in movies / tv shows that were made way before they were born. 99% of my celebrity crushes are from stuff that was way before I was born lol
I do I do! 😝
yes!!!!!
Sleazy af.
not me....
One of my favorite parts is at 00:59 when he asks, "What's HIS name?" Those were the days.
I remember coming home from junior high and high school to watch this. It was a really funny game show.
That sure was a fun show!
FADE! GO TO BLACK! COMMERRRRRCIALLLL!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Fannie and that contestant were hilarious!
I just made the mistake of watching this on my work lunch break. My office co-workers must think I'm nuts cause this clip had me laughing so hard...😂😂😂
Thank you for this, I’ve never seen any of these except the Richard pony rant. George Walass? Whitey? Scoey is killing me!!!
Scoey spelling George Wallace’s name the way he did…Comedy Gold. I loved it.
And accurately too. People who support segregation are jackasses.
5:48 I almost fell out at the BIG Buzzer!
Sounds like a TPIR buzzer. I liked when they did a sound like a "moo" from a Fisher Price Barnyard set for Brett.
th-cam.com/video/8Af79OyQsy8/w-d-xo.html
@@ochsj1971 That IS the TPIR Buzzer. I like to call it The Big Buzzer.
@@ochsj1971 Makes sense considering both shows were taped in the same studio at the time.
They should have used it a lot more often...especially in a losing situation at any point either in the regular game, super match, or head to head. Or when a really stupid answer was given.
@@eyehatefarcebook11 Ideal spot: The score is 5-6... ("URRRNT") The Head-To-Head for $10-20,000...("URRRNT")
Love Fannie.
Suop omg lmao!!.. That's funny.. Just no spell check in those days....
Fade to Black!!!!! LOL
lmao..they were so drunk.the good old days,when people really knew how to have fun.
Fade! Bye!
You picked the best way to end this video
These shows were some of the funniest moments
5:12 - 5:51 I love how they kept buzzing Richard during that rant of his, and then as he was going "I agree the other thing was fair, but that was not fair," they upped to the other buzzer/horn sound.

LOVED the new camera shot around 2:12! I've always wondered what the view of the celebrities looked like!
That was a one-time deal. Charles didn't like it; so they did away with it.
Gene Rayburn was so funny that he had a second job as a.....BLANK!!
Politician
Fall guy
Circus clown.
Suop server
Announcer for Steve Allen?
Any episode with Patti and/or Scoey is an instant gold star. Of course, so is any episode with Brett and Charles! ❤
The fact that Richard had a wonderful career with family feud after this.
He even starred alongside Schwarzenegger in The Running Man.
....and he passed away with only $100,000 in the bank.
How did that happen?@@MrMustangMan
@@ukrandr he must have hidden it in trusts or something for his kids.... he had 3 kids an ex wife, a wife and four grandkids.... he was in so many movies and shows that there is no way he had only 100k.... he died of throat cancer right after being diagnosed...
@@MrMustangManHe wasnt in that many movies, could have spent it easily enough. Living in L.A. can do that.
I always laughed so hard. Everyone was so funny on that show. The reruns of the show gets played here in Minneapolis on the buzzer game channel. Gene was always funny
Gene Rayburn definitely had a few before taping each episode
My late uncle used to call him Gene ASSburn. 😆
These are the funny moments from the (1973 -- 1982) run of Match Game in the U.S.
I cannot believe that Richard said the B-Word at 8:50 !!!
Naughty, not NASTY.
There are no bloopers on Match Game. The goofs all stayed on the show! 🤣🤣

There is a reboot of match game, can’t recommend it. It’s boring and the celebrity guests are awful.

Rip to them
Great video‼️ Thanks for sharing! 👍🙂
Betty white was devious RIP 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder how many of these moments happened after the . . . "dinner" . . . break
Notice that most of the moments are from MG73/MG74 and earlier seasons.. ;0)
Those crazy looking suits!
Funniest TV show ever made...
These are awesome.

I liked Fannie Flagg’s answer to that question: “Take you? I can’t even MOVE you!”
Ohhh that last one made my day!
11:04 Gary Burghoff: "This is a class show folk, soup S-U-O-P"
4:37 Coming from the legitimate theater
Charles Nelson, loved his attitude.
His occasional fits no matter how large was why the show was a hit. His fit was all in fun. The crazier the antics, no matter who was doing it, the better. George Rayburn made the show. It was the number 1 game show at the time. He also had a tight time limit.There were at least 2 commercial breaks in a half an hour show, so he sometimes had to get them to hurry.
Fannie and the contestant kissing was hilarious!!! So innocent and sweet
If you included technical malfunctions you'd have to include every episode 😆
Me addicted
8:32-Bet most people missed that insult to a man in the news at the time.
Who, what?
@@ThomasLawlor-j8uRoman Polanski, a pedo
love it
My grandparents watched this back in the day.
Wonder if they remembered any of these goofy scenes?
I so miss the days when it was O.K. to have fun without offending any Idiots.
I know and I miss those days to.
@@nickhill8612 Amen!
Best game show EVER
Can't beat the classic Match Game. Gene Rayburn is the only one that could host the show.
These game shows, back in the day, are actually the reason I wish I were famous back then. Looked like fun and they were getting paid to do it. Easy money.
That's exactly how Brett put it when she talked about Match Game. She said it was fun, easy, and got paid good. I heard they taped the shows every other weekend. So 4 days a month!
A true classic!
Brent had a laughing fit after Charles said "Beanery."
I sure loved it every afternoon on CBS at 3:30pm here on the east coast sorry it ended and Price Is Right still going on.
TPIR ended when Drew took over. Thank goodness for The Barker Era on PlutoTv to watch the hilarious episodes.
@@theoriginaljrestaw, c'mon, Drew's a nice guy
This show was filmed on the same stage as the price is right.
say what.??????

I remember on one show they misspelled WOODEN as WODDEN.
Another time, it was “Power HUOSE.”
Dang it Earl.
I like the questions like I'll never use that rude veterinarian or that lousy lawyer during the game
10:08 His name is Bruce Anderson? He kinda looks like another Anderson that was a game show host.
Peekaboo
@@Delivery_Boy_Roy how-
Been married for FIVE YEARS and she forgot her husband's name! LOL 😂
How many microphones did Gene break doing swords and such?
12:01 move gene😂😂😂😂🤣. Fannie was gonna give it all too him😂. Fannie knows she was a baddie
I saw the last answer with Fanny Flag live, it was so funny…
9:33 That may have been the point in which Brett'd had too much to drink.
Gene Rayburn as The Incredible Hulk!
Are You Okay? You Fell Down from This Chair!
Nancy reminds me of Meg Ryan. When Betty's husband, game show host Allen Ludden came out!
@5:49, 1st time I ever heard the MRRRP sound on Match Game.
Lol. Thank you.
Richard is a hoot
Funniest game show ever!!!!
