That was a hard one. But he always seems put upon when he's chosen. It's amusing. Mostly an act, but some contestants may not feel so. Kills me that he didn't match, so naturally she went back to Richard on the next gm.
We found out on September 11, that you don't have to be so strategic in placing those charges to demolish a building. All you have to do is fly a random airplane into it and the thing comes neatly down into its own foot print. That's one of the useful lessons the CIA taught us on 9/11.
H/H match update: ... Today's action: Our champ needs two to tie, three to win her eighth game, with Charles sitting out. Leslie: no match - Brett: no match - Barbara: no match - Richard: gave over. (Joyce: no match) Our champion had quite a run of it! She won seven games, played six head-to-head questions, and matched four of them! Her MG haul is $17,950! Today's audience match question: "Molly ________ " (My thoughts: McButter*, Brown, ???) *Fail, because Molly McButter didn't come out until 1989. Molly Ringwald is another choice that doesn't work for 1977. I've said it before, but I really dislike the name questions... The celebs: Charles (Brown), Richard (and Me), Brett, courtesy of Joyce (Bee) The choice: Brown The answers: Pitcher, Malone, Brown Our brand-new champion starts off by selecting the only celebrity suggestion that was on the board. Now comes what has traditionally been (the last 47 times in a row, anyway) the "Match Richard Dawson Round." Will this champion follow in the footsteps of so many champions before her and pick King Richard, or will she march to the beat of a different drummer? Wow. Today is the day that Richard's streak is broken after 47 consecutive times playing the head-to-head match. He shouldn't feel too rejected, thought, because counting today, he's still been chosen 70 of the past 73 times. And, interestingly, it's Charles who has answered the three other questions... Charles has matched 6 of his 10 most recent attempts (60.0%). He last played in episodes 887, 871, and 863. His current record for consecutive plays was seven in a row (in episodes 707-713). For the sake of comparison: Richard has matched 55 of his 126 most recent attempts (43.7%), Joyce has matched 3 of her 4 attempts (75.0%), and Brett has matched 28 of her 68 attempts (41.2%). Today's H/H question: "Final _______ " (After a raft of very easy questions and a few downright gimmes, we're back to a more traditional - i.e., difficult - question. Final straw? Chapter? Judgement? Destination? Frontier? Four? Jeopardy? Cut? Exam? There's so darned many. I'm just going to say final frontier. I have a feeling there's not going to be a match today...) Charles generally takes more time (than Richard) to decide, and today's no exception. He also tends to solicit input from his colleagues, looking around to see what other panelists have come up with. The camera cuts to the champion who doesn't seem to have decided either. This is a tough one today. Charles is writing, but he's also looking down at Joyce. He writes something on a new card and files it. The champion says "Final touch." Interesting. I listed nine answers and she comes up with something else. Like I said, this is a tough one with too many possibilities. I'd say there's very little hope that Charles wrote "touch," but who knows? It's a valid answer. "Days" is Charles's final answer. (He laments: "Why couldn't I get "Pepsi blank"?!) No match today. Here's our updated leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: (Note: An asterisk before a celebrity's name signifies that she has "retired" from the show and her H/H stats are now complete.) (Note: For tied scores, I consider the one with the greater number of matches to be higher; if the matches are equal, the celeb who first achieved that score goes on top.) Orson Bean - 100% (4 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: (*)Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). Gary Burghoff - 71.4% (5 wins in 7 attempts). TIE: Charles - 50.0% (33 wins in 66 attempts). TIE: Betty - 50.0% (19 wins in 38 attempts). TIE: Fannie - 50.0% (13 wins in 26 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 42.0% (253 wins in 603 attempts). Brett - 41.2% (28 wins in 68 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 939, excluding the lost/missing/damaged episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325, 645, and 910. (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!") -- Also, note that episode 849 was never produced.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY saint Richard finally loses out on the 'head to head' (I bet he was some miffed lol; 60 times in a row wouldn't have 'been enough for HIM)
i always feel bad for charles on the head to heads! he seems to always get the hard ones and he stresses so much. bless him!

Chris is such a hottie, I've seen her in a future episode and thought the same. Julie was pretty 🔥 as well
Barbara Rhodes is a gal you’d want to take home to meet mom and dad. Wow.
Take her to a motel first.
I thought it should be a member of the Garden Club in the sandwich. Then the cannibals wouldn't need to add lettuce and tomato. . .
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY saint Richard finally loses out on the 'head to head' (I bet he was some miffed lol; 60 times in a row wouldn't have 'been enough for HIM)
... silencer?
Molly Hatchet hehe
Yeah, I was thinking of them too, and their first hit was just around the corner!
