The Happiest day of my Life, was when I found Match Game on UA-cam and I subscribed.💕💯 👍👏👏👏🥰. Thank you to the Genius who made this possible 🤗😉😘💕. I'm serious. Just think how empty my life would be without these Episodes. And seeing all the wonderful stars I never met.Gene was the Perfect Host.👌. Charles, Brett, Richard, Betty White,Fanny Flagg. Among others was just wonderful I love every minute of Watching everything I have missed..they seemed to love kissing strangers.🤨🤔🤷. I loved it any way.👍. Love, respect and positivity always. Vee. Oh my twin agree.😊✌️🖖🕯️💕🦋🌠👾🌌👣👏.
I like "dog" better too. Given that the prisoner was a master of disguise, I think disguising himself as a dog would be a fitting challenge... But it's hard to argue with success, and wife worked out for the contestant!
Me too. And I think the match was valid. Even though they frequently say they can't match a general with a specific, they do it anyway with great regularity...

@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 You don't EVER see Betty White ask for a question to be repeated. Brett needed a hearing aide or better yet, should have just be more attentive. Without fail, every episode since she became a regular in the top seat, every darn episode she has to have a question repeated. Annoying as all hell.
This isn't a direct reply to the OP, but a more general comment on Brett and the show: Yes, Betty and Brett have very different personalities and roles to play on the show. Thank goodness. The contrast was a factor in the show's popularity. I LOVE Betty. I LOVE Brett. (I also love CNR and Fannie.) Having the two of them playing off each other is television GOLD. Seriously, if if all the panelists were calm, demure, and simply played the game without any antics or horsing around, the show wouldn't have lasted a year. Gene knew it. He was the one who set the tone and encouraged the wild antics (he's rolled onto stage for his opening, for example, and has run around chasing or being chased by panelists, sometimes running out into the audience). The producers knew that they needed to set themselves apart from the straight-laced, rather dry, old-fashioned game shows of the day, and so they sought out and hired a variety of personalities. Brett was hugely popular with daytime television audiences at the time and her presence helped power the show's success in part because she wasn't a demure little lady. The show was NOT successful because it was a good game (it was a mediocre game at best -- Password and Jeopardy are classic examples of great games). The program was successful because it was entertaining. It was engaging. People tuned in every weekday to spend time with the celebrities and have a laugh. The game was secondary, an excuse to assemble the panel and to give them something to do. The celebrities' job was to be human, to entertain, to banter, to interact, to be silly, to become familiar faces to the American daytime TV audience. And Brett excelled at that. It's fine that people take the time to express how much they dislike Brett today, but it's important to keep in mind that the show was designed to appeal to the daytime television audience of 1973 (and on through the seventies) and so it's hardly surprising that it may or may not appeal to a broader audience some 50 years later. For those who truly detest certain members of the panel, my best advice is to watch something else. There's no shortage of media content these days.
"Grape ____________" (today's head-to-head match) (spoiler alert) ... My first thought was Grape Nehi, but even though that was Radar's favorite drink on "MASH," I thought it might be too esoteric, so I went with grape juice as my answer. The contestant's grapevine made perfect sense and I slapped my forehead because I hadn't thought of it. "Heard it through the grapevine" and a section of I-5 near LA is known as the grapevine. Brett answered Grape Nuts, another answer that I didn't think about. But you know, her answer makes a lot of sense too. The MG writers have come up with questions featuring Euell Gibbons at least a dozen times since MG premiered, and Gibbons was famous for his long-running series of Grape Nuts TV commercials.
I think part of the reason is that Jack Cassidy had been a fill-in panelist (in the #1 seat) for a week (or two? I forget now) and Gary mentioned his son David instead.
He got a good one in today. @ 2:38 Brett says "God save the Queen" and Gary retorts "Is he back in town?" followed by his CNR laugh. That's one thing I like about Gary -- he doesn't let the audience forget he's just filling in for the great CNR. (And Gene definitely laughed at that one!)
I loved the Tidy Bowl man explanation. Richard's "he lives in the back of your toidy" and Arlene"s "That's terribly interesting."
"The one with the finger in her nose" priceless
Frito bandito we shall serve no wine before it's time LOL

Uggghhhh can someone get out the big cane and yank Gary off that set?!
Gary tries to be funny...just annoyingly dumb.
Some of us like Gary
John's probably the only person who could pull of such a 'stache.
On him, I like it!
That was something.
He reminds me of Woody Harrelson for some reason.
@@mittens4kittens435 or his Dad
On this date in 1966, The tv movie Munster, Go Home! with Richard Dawson as Joey aired.
Cool.
I matched with Richard with "the wardens DOG." The wardens wife wouldn't be at a prison.
I like "dog" better too. Given that the prisoner was a master of disguise, I think disguising himself as a dog would be a fitting challenge... But it's hard to argue with success, and wife worked out for the contestant!
Love Betty’s answer “ water ballet” …

The whole _______ Cassidy bit was too perfect.
Not nice that they made fun of David.

They used the grandma spiked the hot chocolate question before.
That's great Brett, let everyone know each time you have a thought ...
The one thing I personally think is even worse than that is her incessant coughing.
Totally grates on my nervous's! : )
@@UberLummox Good for you. If you were on the panel and coughed like that, you'd be SICK of someone telling you control it

What a contrast; Betty is intelligent, funny, demure, pretty - and then there's Brett ....
Betty is too flirtatious with both Gene and Richard.
who's also intelligent, funny and demure

The wonderful Ms. White was many things, but demure wasn’t one of them.

The MG writers have come up with questions featuring Euell Gibbons at least a dozen times since MG premiered, and Gibbons was famous for his long-running series of Grape Nuts TV commercials.
Hillary and Woody look-a-likes.
Omg.
Hey, we haven't had a Euell Gibbons question in awhile.
14:19 " Slide it Earl "
One of many times, you'll hear Gene say it.
Why were they mocking the David Cassidy answer? They can all certainly be mean sometimes.
I think part of the reason is that Jack Cassidy had been a fill-in panelist (in the #1 seat) for a week (or two? I forget now) and Gary mentioned his son David instead.
I said cleansing
Blank Cassidy
On one show they had a caption Shirley Williams look a-like, (I didn't think so) but this show, they should have had Hillary Clinton look a-like!
Does Gary realize nobody laugh's at his stoopid jokes. (Besides himself I mean)
Once in a while he says something a little clever.
He got a good one in today. @ 2:38 Brett says "God save the Queen" and Gary retorts "Is he back in town?" followed by his CNR laugh. That's one thing I like about Gary -- he doesn't let the audience forget he's just filling in for the great CNR. (And Gene definitely laughed at that one!)
spiked with prune juice
I'm surprised that Brett "wore" her Real hair every day for the last week or so
Pep pills was the name for meth back then. Would certain given Grandpa some get up and go...
