H/H match update: ... Today's action: (In the final moments of the prior program, the champion won his second game and scored $500 on his second audience match. So we start right off today with his second head-to-head match.) When we last saw our champion, he was about to choose his H/H match celebrity. What a cliffhanger! What suspense! (I'm kidding. We all know he's going to choose Richard again.) This is now Richard's 15th consecutive attempt at the head-to-head, and he's matched five times so far during that extended run. Today's (first) H/H question: "Please don't _______" (My first thought is "eat the daisies." -- It was a 1960 Doris Day film and an NBC sitcom from 1965-1967. Nothing else really comes to mind.) Richard writes a fairly long answer, so I'm thinking he may have said the same thing. The contestant gives the predicted answer. The audience applauds. (I still can't think of an alternate answer, so I have to bet we'll have another match today.) Yes, indeed. Richard scores his 193rd H/H match today. ~~~ After winning $11,200, our champion is defeated. But there's enough time left today for a new champion to have a go at over $5,000 in the Super-Match. Today's audience match question: "Kissing _________ " (My thoughts: Cousin/s, Bandit, ??) The celebs: Richard (Cousin), Charles (Bandit), and Brett (Booth -- via Joyce!) The choice: Cousin The answers: Game, Disease, Cousins A new champion, but I have a feeling we'll be seeing the same celebrity once again... Yawn. This is now Richard's 16th consecutive attempt at the head-to-head, and he's matched six times so far during that extended run. Today's (second) H/H question: "Salad _______" (My first thought is "bowl." But then there's fork. I like bowl better.) Richard answers quickly. It looks like a short response. The contestant gives the predicted answer, but the audience doesn't sound too thrilled. They seem to be rooting for salad dressing. (Salad days is another good answer.) Well, as I often say, it doesn't matter what the audience thinks for this question. It's up to Richard now. He says "Bowl"! Richard scores his 194th H/H match today. ~~~Here's the updated tally of celebs who've scored two H/H matches in a single show, and Richard's done it several times now: (The celebs are listed in order of the first episode they achieved a double H/H match. Unfortunately, I didn't start noting this achievement until episode 111, so it's possible there was an instance prior to episode 111...) Charles scored 2 H/H matches in episode 111. Jo Ann Pflug scored 2 H/H matches in episode 148. Richard scored 2 H/H matches in episode 193, 218, 622, 654, 757, 777. Fannie scored 2 H/H matches in episode 332. Gary scored 2 H/H matches in episode 412. ~~~Alright, 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). 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). Charles - 51.0% (27 wins in 53 attempts). Betty - 50.0% (18 wins in 36 attempts). Fannie - 47.8% (11 wins in 23 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 41.7% (194 wins in 465 attempts). Brett - 41.3% (26 wins in 63 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 777, excluding the lost/missing/damaged episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325, and 645. (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!")
Britt Jackson was later ruled ineligible for unknown reasons, as the closing credits said in the 2 episodes that followed this one. The credit's didn't mention Britt by name.
I don't get the "first mistake since the World's Fair" line -- is that a dated reference, or a reference specific to that particular panelist? (Edit: I know what a World's Fair is; I just don't understand why 'first mistake since the World's Fair' is funny.)
He explained before they were in a bad accident on the way too/or from the show. He said the money would pay for the car and medical bills, they were very lucky.
0:56: Ron’s smile though! My heart! ❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖 OMG! 🥺😍🥰💖💖💖💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️
Oh, uh, hi guys, just a Ron Palillo/Horshack fangirl passing through here. XD 😊

On this date in 1971, Love, American Style Tv series segment "Love and the Neighbor” with Charles Nelson Reilly as Frank aired.
Love this show!!💖💖💖
Dawson was a genius. "Kissing ... Ger" was a brilliant, if also tardy, response.
Two pretty contestants born outside of US back to back episodes. Plus Trevor from New Zealand.
Richard Dawson is incredible. Salad Bowl wasn't even on my radar. I was thinking Dressing all the way.
Yeah, I didn't even think of salad bowl. I had salad days first then dressing.
I thought fork
bar would be good too
Richard is brilliant helped lots of contestants win money 💰
Mary is so funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣
She's a sweetheart, too. It sure seems, when I watch this show, that we have lost a whole lot in the last 50 years.
Mr. Dawson won $10,000 for the contestants in that show...a very good half hour
My gosh that dress only makes her most incredible. 16:09
The guy with the 'fro makes a great joke but Gene is like "Huh?" since he doesn't expect wit from the contestants.
Britt Jackson was later ruled ineligible for unknown reasons, as the closing credits said in the 2 episodes that followed this one. The credit's didn't mention Britt by name.
Ineligible for what?
@@pencils812 Well my guess is he was underage or was on too many game shows, but that is just my opinion though
@@patcrites5274 thanks.
One of the overall best!
Maureen is a babe.
Most definitely. 😍
Panelists:
1. Ron Palilio
2. Brett Somers
3. Charles Nelson Reilly
4. Joyce Bulifant
5. Richard Dawson
6. Mary Wickes
"the gassiest bunch"....today it would definitely mean something different....
I'm surprised it was used, since the definition of "gasser" was old even then.
Cool Video
I wanted to say that Tough Tony "rubbed her the wrong way." I don't know, though. Would that have been funny?
The first thing I thought of in the head to head is “Please don’t try this at home.”
Actually Richard got the answer wrong. He put eat the daisies. Trevor said don't eat the daisies.
Thank god Ron is gay gene honey you love him saying ohh ohh ohh
Love the hair Britt..sooooo 1976
big bouncy tata's - I.m surprised that Gene hasnt alluded to them
That’s the way the girls in Scotland are.
Even then, that was out of bounds.
Richard didn't say Kissing Bandit??
Kissing Booth, cousin of John Wilkes.
I don't get the "first mistake since the World's Fair" line -- is that a dated reference, or a reference specific to that particular panelist? (Edit: I know what a World's Fair is; I just don't understand why 'first mistake since the World's Fair' is funny.)
I think she meant to say since the FIRST world's fair. Then she's calling herself old.
Is it my imagination or does Maureen resemble Maureen McCormick (Marcia Brady) from The Brady Bunch?
No, this girl is much prettier than McCormick.
@@daverogers5609 Agree. And that's a fairly high compliment.
They dont look the same to me
It’s your imagination
I don't think she looks like Maureen McCormick, but she is very pretty in her own right. 😁
Love Britt's fro!
What is Mrs.Trevor wearing on her head??
He explained before they were in a bad accident on the way too/or from the show. He said the money would pay for the car and medical bills, they were very lucky.
@@Ruth-b8c Thanks!
The one in the last seat is always a ditz!! 🤨😠
Has anyone seen the episode that Betty is talking about at the end of the video at 2:50?
ua-cam.com/video/bEZkCnTKGW4/v-deo.html
No!
Why does everyone on the show appear to have spaces between their teeth ?
Maybe because that's the way God made them.
That's a DUMB question!
You must have a teeth fetish , right
@@kristabrewer6736Witch!
People didn't have dental insurance and technology was so far behind today. Novacaine was optional. Seriously it cost extra.
