It's interesting to hear a reference to Arnold Schwarzenegger from the time when he was known only as a body builder, not yet as a movie star or a politician.
H/H match update: ... ~~~Today's action: It sure looked like we were headed for a zero-to-zero tie, but at the last moment, Marcia reveals an improbable match, and our champion claims his second victory. (Wow, there was only a single match the entire show, and it was Marcia!!!) *Today's audience match question: "________of Luck"* (My thoughts: Best, Lots, String) The celebs: Richard (Best), Charles (Lots), Didi (Out) The choice: Lots The answers: Best, Out, Lots (The panel got them all!) Second time in a row that our champion selects the top answer. Now will he select Richard for the second time in a row as his H/H partner? They did match last time, so why not? Yes. This is now King Richard's fourth consecutive H/H question. His most recent mega-streak of 70 consecutive H/H questions began after Fannie played in episode 1132 and ended when Betty was called on in episode 1200. (Since then he's watched Betty play again in 1205, Brett in 1206, Dick Martin in 1209, Don Sutton in 1212, and Betty again in 1213.) Stats: Richard has matched 162 of his 369 most recent attempts (43.9%), 101 of his last 229 attempts (44.1%), 40 of his past 94 attempts (42.6%), and 23 of his past 52 attempts (44.2%). His overall success rate is *42.6%* and this is his 847th attempt so far. For the sake of comparison: Charles has matched 34 of his 70 attempts (48.6%), Brett has matched 31 of her 72 attempts (43.1%), and Richard has matched 360 of his 846 attempts (42.6%). Marcia Wallace has answered one H/H question without a match so far, and neither Bill Anderson nor Didi Carr has yet been called on for a H/H question. *Today's H/H question: "Clean________"* (Clean house. A few other things come to mind, but nothing really stands out. Oh, clean slate, maybe. I'll stick with house.) Richard doesn't take long. A quick glance to Marcia and he finishes his card. Our sophomore champion hesitates when Gene calls for his answer. He's looking upward, as if still undecided. "I can't think of..." he shakes his head. Gene offers him some time. With a shrug he offers "Clean clothes." The audience awes, but I don't think it's a terrible answer. I doubt it'll match, but it's still a valid possibility. I hear Charles remark "That's a good one." (And not in a sarcastic tone.) Well, unfortunately I'm the one to score the match with Richard today: "House." No H/H match today. ~~~Here's our updated leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: (An asterisk before a celebrity's name signifies that she has "retired" from the show and her H/H stats are now complete.) (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 matches in 4 attempts). TIE: (*)Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 matches in 4 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 75% (3 matches in 4 attempts). Gary Burghoff - 71.4% (5 matches in 7 attempts). Betty - 51.2% (21 matches in 41 attempts). Charles - 48.6% (34 matches in 70 attempts). Fannie - 48.5% (16 matches in 33 attempts). (*)Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 matches in 18 attempts). Brett - 43.1% (31 matches in 72 attempts). Richard - 42.5% (360 matches in 847 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 matches in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 1217, excluding the missing/damaged/unavailable episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325, 645, 910, 1024, 1025, 1026, 1027, 1028, 1029, and 1030. *Also, note that episode 849 was never produced. (These stats do, however, include the H/H results of missing episode 968 as those results were revealed in episode 969. Note: There was no H/H in missing episode 1035, as we learn in 1036.)
She ended up scoring the one and only match in the entire show today!!! It doesn't often happen that we go a whole day with only one match. The second-round questions today were harder than they've been.
@@aracelyguerrero360I always wondered if he told the truth about his height cuz I noticed too, how many of the women were as tall as him. Even with heels it doesn't seem as if the average would be 6'1 or taller! I just don't think Gene really was that height!
I think so althou I think the start the theme between the 1st and 2nd stands during MGPM so I not sure, I haven't gone thou and watch MGPM yet, trying to get thou the MG73-79 episode first.
I can generally tolerate Brett’s outbursts. I like her, but what the heck was with her constant jabbering over the last couple weeks episodes. Thanks to Gene for hushing her before she gave away an answer. 🤐
As much as I don't want to agree with Brett, she is definitely right. The political criminal class has learned how to break every law on the books and profit wildly from it. Fortunately, God is the ultimate Judge. Thank God for hell and eternal damnation!
Stop being so nasty towards Brett and leave her alone. It's a GAME SHOW and Brett was only having fun FUN which clearly you don't know what that means. Brett made Match Game what it is. You just have to watch one episode without Brett to see how dull it is. It wouldn't of been as successful without her.

I thought the same😁
First and only answer I had was clean slate
I was thinking clean sweep, which would have been relevant to Family Feud (family who completes the question before other family got to steal)...

Wow I love this. My teen years!
Richard Dawson is always to the point on questions involving Watergate.
Oh Marcia Marcia Marcia, truly gone too soon
In this interview, around 2:30 Brett says Marcia told her she was in a looney bin.
ua-cam.com/video/7b5d3jCN4xU/v-deo.html
I really thought it was going to be a scoreless tie until Marcia came though with the winning answer.
She ended up scoring the one and only match in the entire show today!!! It doesn't often happen that we go a whole day with only one match. The second-round questions today were harder than they've been.
@@kevansfthat is a rarity
Just to put things in perspective, Gene Rayburn was 6’1”, so the contest who was the wrestler must have been close to 7’ tall
A lot of women were as tall as gene. Were women taller in the 70s? Hmmm
@@aracelyguerrero360I always wondered if he told the truth about his height cuz I noticed too, how many of the women were as tall as him. Even with heels it doesn't seem as if the average would be 6'1 or taller! I just don't think Gene really was that height!
I was hoping to see Ed White next to CNR when they shook hands. For comparison
Clean... Slate?...
I miss Earl.
Me to. I just said this. I wonder what happened to him?
Is this the first time we've heard the end of the theme music? (near the end of the video)
I think so althou I think the start the theme between the 1st and 2nd stands during MGPM so I not sure, I haven't gone thou and watch MGPM yet, trying to get thou the MG73-79 episode first.
We ain't got no score. Gene Rayburn
Thank you Gene.. ;0) ROFL! Love ya Charles thank you! ;0)
I wonder why Richard Dawson was only occasionally introduced as being from Family Feud?
Because it was on a rival network
Retro Chick ahh!
@@retrochick9993 A rival network with the same producer?
@@kristabrewer6736 Match Game was produced by Ira Skutch and Jon Goodson. Family Feud was produced by Howard Felsher.
I think I still a pair of those Haggard slacks left over from the 70’s.
My dad wore them.
They were Haggar pants
Brett, what have you done to your HAIR?! 😳
I can generally tolerate Brett’s outbursts. I like her, but what the heck was with her constant jabbering over the last couple weeks episodes. Thanks to Gene for hushing her before she gave away an answer. 🤐
Brett was a WHOLE lot better than Charles
I was so SICK Charles today!
Hmm............suddenly, I wanna track down episodes of SUGARTIME.
As much as I don't want to agree with Brett, she is definitely right. The political criminal class has learned how to break every law on the books and profit wildly from it. Fortunately, God is the ultimate Judge. Thank God for hell and eternal damnation!
I know it's disgusting
"Thank god for hell." ~ Gizmo, 2021 I'm gonna steal that one!!!
Hell isn't something to be thankful for!!
G Gordon liddy went to jail
I was so SICK Charles today!
If CNR really gave that shirt to Michelle, she's the luckiest girl in the world. I'd rather have a keepsake from Charles than $5,600.
sure
Meides
I love Match Game but would someone turn Brett Sommers mic off & tell her to shut up!!!!!
They should have kick her off the show years ago... I forgot they did.
Stop being so nasty towards Brett and leave her alone. It's a GAME SHOW and Brett was only having fun FUN which clearly you don't know what that means. Brett made Match Game what it is. You just have to watch one episode without Brett to see how dull it is. It wouldn't of been as successful without her.
Oh no u upset the weirdo (Leesa)
@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 you write the same exact thing every time you post 🤡🤡🤡🤡
It would have been so nice if Brett was gone . She was an annoyance to most unless of course u enjoyed listening to a rambling drunk
I am finding out that the female contestant absolutely doesn’t want to be there so far she hadn’t smiled
Im so tired of Brett !
Has anyone seen the episode that Betty is talking about at the end of the video at 2:50?
