Other than maybe Hollywood Squares, this show works as both a game show and a situation comedy. Anyone who is depressed or sad or recuperating from an illness needs to watch marathons of this show. Guaranteed to make you laugh.
Maybe its just me, but, i enjoy watching the vintage Match Game much more than 95+% of current tv shows. Brett & Charles have such chemistry it just makes watching this so much fun. The Match Game and What's My Line panelists and hosts made the shows well worth watching.
I don't watch any current TV EXCEPT all those "Got Talent" Shows on You Tube. I watch my old favorites over and over, Lucy, Dick Van Dyke, All In The Family, Maude, Hazel, Bewitched, etc. I watched the 70s Match Game when it originally aired, I was in Junior High and would rush home to make toast with butter and jelly and orange juice and watch MG at 3:30pm est in NYC. I even remember the theme song to the 60s version of Match Game, Swingin Safari. I was born in 1961.
Brett: I would think so... *Small buzzer, Brett stares the buzzer guy down* Brett: Now you're asking for trouble... You're gonna be in TERRIBLE trouble when I get at you.. *Brett accidentally fumbles with the card, she yells. Long buzzer sounds, Charles catches the card and hands it back to Brett* Brett: FLEAS! *Buzzer* Brett: Oooooh... Hush up!
@@Lava1964 If you like to lose because a lame panelist would rather be funny than help the contestants win money, then it's the Match Game. Have you ever noticed that seat one, four and six would have some of the worst panelist ever? If I were a contestant and I saw Orson Bean, Gary Burghof, Dick Martin, Patty Duestch, or Marcia Wallace in the panelist seats , I would probably just get up and leave. As far as Brett Sommers, she was wrong much more than right and Christ , I would hate to have to pay for all the damn cards that she used to write her answers.
I was waiting YEARS just to see the second clip again, the one where the buzzer kept sounding before she showed her answer, and it's part of a compilation? Sweet! Thank you! Oh, my God, I'm laughing my eyes out. Apart from the second clip, I don't recall ever seeing any of these clips. And the last clip? Priceless! I can only imagine how the buzzer guy reacted as the question was read AND after he got home from work that day. Buzzer Guy's Wife: How was your day, honey? Buzzer Guy: You'd rather not know. That's why I'm not even going to bother telling you.
Gene Rayburn's little eyes closing real tight at 3:05. Hilarious! Loved Brett Sommers. She was so unique and "down to earth." Her reactions were priceless, for sure!
Lol so many funny lines in this clip: Brett: I'm the first one finished Betty: You were finished a long time ago sweetheart Brett: well Buzzer sounds Charles: Wow! I heard that Gene: now wait just a minute, she didn't even show yet and your buzzing. At least be decent enough to wait until she gives her rotten answer. Brett: I would think so! Starts to hold it up and it buzzes again. Brett: Now your asking for trouble and your going to be in terrible trouble when I get at ya Brett tries to hold it up and it flies out of her hand, the Buzzer sounds AGAIN Charles gives the card to Brett. Brett: Fleas! The Buzzer sounds AGAINNNNN Brett: oh, hush up! The cow sound occurs: Brett: I don't have to do this show! I have a private income you know! The cow sound occurs again Orson: Abandon ship! Gene: Say excuse me! Say your sorry, and you'll never do it. Brett: Apologize. Orson: Yeah she's gonna kiss him and kiss him and kiss until he's dead! Betty: And that'll do it. Brett: Oh she's worse than Betty White Betty: Nobody is! I love this show hahahahahahah
If I was the buzzer guy, I would tap the button just to piss Brett off, and she would probably run up to the control panel where I'm at and throttle me.
I was actually surprised that it seems "worse" on the ones that Alec Baldwin hosts now. Because I don't recall there was swearing or riska answers allowed in the Gene one but the Alec one did. Yes there was that time Gene said nipples when he meant dimples introducing a female contestant. Still..
Brett: well... Ira: buzz Gene, Hey, she didn't show yet, and you're already buzzing. Be decent enough to wait to she gives her rotten answer. Brett: I would think so. Now you're asking for trouble and you'll be in the most terrible trouble when I get you. Ira: long buzzer.
It would've been even funnier if the audience and announcer Johnny Olsen would've made the buzzer sound. Brett would've been so mad, she would've ripped up the card and thrown it at the audience.
No Cowan.. trust me, she meant pot when she said that.. she and CNR would drink and smoke pot before most of the shows at his place and then they'd drive over to the studio.. he didn't live very far from it.
I didn't think the sound of a buzz could erupt an entire auditorium full of people into laughter.
People got a buzz out of that moment!...
🤣
it created enough buzz to make em laugh
Because it sounds like a dirty fart thats why like brain fart
Best game show of all time and one of the best comedies of all time. Cast and crew together made it work.
Because they were drunk most of the time is why
Other than maybe Hollywood Squares, this show works as both a game show and a situation comedy. Anyone who is depressed or sad or recuperating from an illness needs to watch marathons of this show. Guaranteed to make you laugh.
They were all mostly bombed at the time.
Brett: "I'm the first one finished"
Betty: "You were finished a long time ago, sweetheart"
Betty's delivery of that line is priceless!
It should have been the quote of that year.
...Betty stealing back from Milton Berle; priceless!
@@albertpeterson5585 the only one to pick at betty was brett lmao
@@whitealliance9540
Haha yeah
"You we're finished a long time ago, sweetheart" RIP Betty
I love the fact that there are Brett vs. buzzer questions!
That zinger from Betty White at the beginning is awesome!
This is the only show I know of where the people in the control room will actively screw with the panelists.
And the panelists will screw with the control room.
there's a British show called QI. The point of the show is the control room screwing with the panelists.
@@SchwarzeWitwe2 I adore that show!

As an 18 year old, I can confidently agree with you

I agree! 😊
I think you meant 99.9% of the current TV shows.
Not alone I watch the classic game shows over current TV. Match game is among those I watch frequently
Brett: "Well....." BUZZ!
Gene: Now just a moment, she didn't even show yet and you're buzzing already! At least be decent enough to wait until she gives her rotten answer!
Brett: I would think so...
*Small buzzer, Brett stares the buzzer guy down*
Brett: Now you're asking for trouble... You're gonna be in TERRIBLE trouble when I get at you..
*Brett accidentally fumbles with the card, she yells. Long buzzer sounds, Charles catches the card and hands it back to Brett*
Brett: FLEAS!
*Buzzer*
Brett: Oooooh... Hush up!
"Abandon Ship" 🤣🤣🤣
One instance, they used the TPIR deep toned losing horn as a response to Brett.
Brett Sommers: Now you're asking for trouble! You're gonna be in terrible trouble when I get at ya! (prolonged buzzer, Brett yells)
she sounded a bit like rabbit from winnie the pooh when she yelled
“At least be decent enough to wait til she gives her rotten answer” 😄😄
I love this video! She and that buzzer person had a toxic relationship. 😂
Gene: Just a minute, she didn't even show yet, and you're buzzing already! At least be decent enough to wait until she gives her rotten answer!
WWEFiesta02 He's just messing with Brett (I think he even had a thing for her)
Brett: "I would think so!" (buzzer)
@@nancyomalley6012 Brett and Gene used to joke about having trysts at a motel in Encino.
@@thegamerontop5348 best part! 😄
Damn, Betty.
Such an epic burn right at the start
I watched this show as a little kid but never appreciated it as much as today!
noticing a lot of things that you missed back then?
That second one, when he starts buzzing before she can show her card -- I'd never seen that before and it's **damn** funny.
I only wish they would have cut to a shot of the buzzer guy and his reactions. Also, it would be cool to see the actual sound effects machine.
This was the best game show ever!
I know it's almost been a year but I thought I'd throw in 'The Hollywood Squares'. A very funny games show right next to 'Match Game'
It depends what you like. If you like fun, It's Match Game. If you like mart game play in Jeopardy! or The Pyramid.
As entertainment, perhaps. As a game show, hardly.
British game shows 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, QI, Would I Lie To You? and Big Fat Quiz are hysterical!

If you ring that buzzer one more time, you're in big trouble. Now I want a bell! Bust line!
"Moose call!"
"MOUUUOO"
LOL
That was a raspberry
That sounds like a cross between a distorted cow and a fart
@@GarrisonValentinelli You might be right.
@@GarrisonValentinelli Just what I said a fart
@@Powerranger-le4upwell you said that overseas we say the truth.....A FART
The buzzer makes a funny sound and everyone laughs! LOL!! It even makes me laugh!
Match game was great because of Gene,Bret,Charles and Richard RIP to all these legends we miss and love you all.
I was waiting YEARS just to see the second clip again, the one where the buzzer kept sounding before she showed her answer, and it's part of a compilation? Sweet! Thank you!

Brett Somers and Betty White had a hell of a time on Match Game.

I miss when TV was raw, smart and fun like this.
Yea back when you couldn't say bitch on TV
This shows the part of Match Game that was so funny. Always fun to see where it will go
Lol so many funny lines in this clip:
Brett: I'm the first one finished
Betty: You were finished a long time ago sweetheart
Brett: well
Buzzer sounds
Charles: Wow! I heard that
Gene: now wait just a minute, she didn't even show yet and your buzzing. At least be decent enough to wait until she gives her rotten answer.
Brett: I would think so!
Starts to hold it up and it buzzes again.
Brett: Now your asking for trouble and your going to be in terrible trouble when I get at ya
Brett tries to hold it up and it flies out of her hand, the Buzzer sounds AGAIN
Charles gives the card to Brett.
Brett: Fleas!
The Buzzer sounds AGAINNNNN
Brett: oh, hush up!
The cow sound occurs:
Brett: I don't have to do this show! I have a private income you know!
The cow sound occurs again
Orson: Abandon ship!
Gene: Say excuse me! Say your sorry, and you'll never do it.
Brett: Apologize.
Orson: Yeah she's gonna kiss him and kiss him and kiss until he's dead!
Betty: And that'll do it.
Brett: Oh she's worse than Betty White
Betty: Nobody is!
I love this show hahahahahahah
bret had such a contagious laugh love this show.
That was funny at 2:20
"Abandon ship!" lol
The buzzer guy is the original troll.
...that moose sound sounds like Ira Skutch is blowing raspberries thru a paper towel tube.
The buzzer guy and Brett really must have had a hate-hate relationship.
I remembered on Family Feud with Richard Dawson when he heard the buzzer when time ran out he said: Oh the hell with that.
That was during the infamous "September" Trejo family episode.
...we need a compilation of Match Game zingers.
2:18 Brett Sommers: Bust line! (moose call buzzer, used as an alternative to the other buzzer that Brett didn't like Ira using)
That buzzer sounds like a cow
Brett's so great, she gets her own buzzer!
Just love how her face goes from a scowl to laughing just like that.
you dont get genuinity like that in tv shows anymore!
brett sommers vs whoever was sitting in betty's chair was some of the best banters ever
That buzzer sounds like a pesty fly lol
*buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuzz*AHHHHHHHH!*buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuzz
Betty White's snappy number on Bertt Somers was awesome.
I love how Brett had her own sound!
Love how Brett went from feigning anger to cracking up the first time the moose call was played.
I was about 8 when this was on daytime TV. I thought it was pretty funny back then. Now I understand some of the answers! LOL
I can watch these short videos over and over and still laugh. This show was gold.
Someone's at the door, Brett!
I love how a simple mistake ending up becoming a running gag 😆
Betty White makes everything better!
+Chet Lindsay ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I thought Blue Bonnet Margarine made everything better on it.
@@rtususian So true....lol
If I was the buzzer guy, I would tap the button just to piss Brett off, and she would probably run up to the control panel where I'm at and throttle me.
Could you imagine if people said stuff like this on game shows nowadays
Kyle Wheeler - I bet Match Game 16 doesn't even *have* that alternate buzzer on the sound board!
72speedway gotta remember, this show shared the same dings and buzzers as TPIR as they taped in the same studio.
Oh, that's would be so fun with certain phrases!
I was actually surprised that it seems "worse" on the ones that Alec Baldwin hosts now. Because I don't recall there was swearing or riska answers allowed in the Gene one but the Alec one did. Yes there was that time Gene said nipples when he meant dimples introducing a female contestant. Still..
@@GBmovieluv We're talking about the same production company that's responsible for Steve Harvey's Family Feud run. You shouldn't be suprised.
Funniest and most fun game show ever. Miss those days coming home from school and watching this show. It always made me laugh.
The cow (or whoopie cushion, whatever it is) soundbyte is perfect
Brett Charles and Richard were the official co hosts of this show. They made it iconic. More than a gameshow.
I recently watched show #11 which had the first appearances of Brett, Charles and Betty. The energy level went way up, and it got much funnier!
Brett was golden during these she was so damn funny.
2:20 I'm curious as to how many times they used this sound effect, and if there's a clean version.
They should have kept the fart horn every time Brett answered a question.
Little Orphan Annie? The dog ate her eyeballs.
I miss the old match game
The new one isn't the same. It's funny but not as funny as the old one.
Brett, Gene, CNR and Richard Dawson made this show.
At 2:58, Brett's card says CHIDREN (without the "L").
It's hard to spell when you're drunk!
@@ochsj1971 💯 💯
I would have loved to have meet brett and Charles
This show was the Booze Generation’s finest hour.
-holds my sides- oh God I cant stop laughing
Chuck at the end looks like someone straight out of early 1960's typecasting. He'd be in bell bottoms today if he's still alive.
to me he looks like johnny olson and allen ludden combined
Brett and Charles were like the pre JACK AND KAREN
BEST ROAST OF ALL TIME 👸!!!!
What WAS that noise, anyway?
That bust line buzzer sounded like a dirty fart sound
Anyone catch what Dawson said? "Guess who just has dinner" A liquid dinner ;) Love Brett!!!
Shady ass Betty lol. Love her!!!
#1: MG74 Week of Episodes 176-180
#2 - #4: Unsure, but all should be from MG74
#5: MG74 Week of Episodes 271-275
Brett: Well...
Ira: >BUZZ
Brett: well...
Ira: buzz
Gene, Hey, she didn't show yet, and you're already buzzing. Be decent enough to wait to she gives her rotten answer.
Brett: I would think so.
Now you're asking for trouble and you'll be in the most terrible trouble when I get you.
Ira: long buzzer.
Brett said: I have an announcement ( in snarky lynde type voice ) that was funny
I thought that moose call was hilarious!
Brett was the best. Full of personality! 👍🙂
At least Brett had a sense of humor. She didn't take offense with Betty's zinger, and she cracked up with the moose/raspberry buzzer.
It would've been even funnier if the audience and announcer Johnny Olsen would've made the buzzer sound. Brett would've been so mad, she would've ripped up the card and thrown it at the audience.
I thought I saw Brett eat an answer a time or two.
1:45 Brett Somers You're In Big Trouble Mister
2:59 "Chidren"?
I love the buzzer sign after it
I can take no more. The correct answer is; "she is going to boink the man on the buzzer!" - LOLOL, LOLOL, LOLOL !
I would have said 'itching powder' regarding the second question.
Was that a farting sound?
BRETT WILL NEVER FORGET THIS NOR WILL I
All the times I watched this show I've never heard the fart buzzer before. Must've happened when I was at school.
Same here! I never knew there was fart buzzer!
The best show ever. They got away with so much and it just seemed like a perpetual party. No Me Too or cancel culture just fun fun fun!
+TimsDale4ever It's her real hair, and she has the receipts to prove it!
This Show was the best
Bring back this one
All hail the Big Red Button Marked "BRETT"...
Just out of curiosity, I'd like to know the episodes that are shown here in the order of the video.
3:10 Abandon ship!
Does brett mean pot when she says Annie smokes funny cigarettes?
Touche'!
No Cowan.. trust me, she meant pot when she said that.. she and CNR would drink and smoke pot before most of the shows at his place and then they'd drive over to the studio.. he didn't live very far from it.
I thought she was pointing at audience and not Fingers Grecho and Dobkowitz.
Anybody notice that Brett misspelled the word 'children?' Lol
she always misspelled words
It's a good thing spelling never counted on MATCH GAME otherwise there would be a lot more losing contestants!
Brett: Bust line.
Buzzer: (distorted cow)
Where are you hiding your wheel chair
Little Orphan Annie's dog ate her ... eyeballs.
Think about it!
Brett was always the best.
One sounds like a sinking ship.
Orson Bean: Well, She's gonna Kiss him and Kiss him and Kiss him, until he's DEAD!!!
