- Charles is sitting in the first seat today on Match Game 73. You really don't see this very much.
Charles Nelson Reilly, Brett Somers, Morey Amsterdam, Loretta Swit, Richard Dawson, and Ruta Lee
loretta swit and ruta lee still with us, 81 and 84 respectively. didn't know who ruta is but she's had an interesting life and career, born in canada she was the only child of lithuanian immigrants, she spoke with nikita khrushchev in 1964 to secure her grandmothers release from a soviet internment camp. she later got a cousin out. she worked all the way up to 2013 in movies and television, and also did 3 episodes of hogans heroes.
Thanks for the bio, Mike Wallace wanna be
@@joeambrose3260 thanks, i didn't know much about her, and thought her life was interesting outside of acting.
@@tomitstube I appreciate the info, since I'm half Lithuanian
@@joeambrose3260 you're welcome, i've also got some lineage to eastern europe, more southern, told it's the hungarian/romanian area, on my mothers side. i'll bet lithuania is beautiful.
@@tomitstube Yes, it is. I visited for 12 days in '92
5 grand was serious coin in '73. In '74 my old man bought a new Plymouth with A/C for about 3 Gs
Lorettta is a lovely, classy woman.
This seems to be about the time the show's comedy took off!
Ruta Lee would be the dice rolling girl a year after this week's MG73 appearance on High Rollers with fellow canuck Alex Trebek.
I'm 31 and I'm thankful that I know almost all of the stars on the show and can follow their references. I was raised in the "past" you could say. Ruda Lee is from Rawhide.
Rawhide, Gunsmoke, Twilight Zone, The Lucy Show, etc. ......
CNR said "Do I have to be with these people the entire week?' Amazing, considering the length of his time on the game! I wonder if he ever thought back on that line? ;)
It was a joke he recycled and varied quite often, especially regarding Brett. Richard often did the same with whoever sat to his right.
"Stay tuned for Secret Storm next over most of these CBS stations."
Pure awesomeness.
wish my affiliate hadn't dropped SS b4 it was canceled.....
This is the second episode I've heard Richard make the same crack about Britt's laughing "you lay em and I'll sell em" referring to Britt sounding like a cackling hen. 8:21 The first time he said it, it didn't look as if anyone on the panel heard him as they were all talking, this time I think maybe Loretta heard and laughed.
Brett's laugh and her ' singing ' were insufferable at times
max stax that and I’m sure other reasons is why she got divorced. Brett was annoying .
Brett Somers was one of the most useless panelists in Match Game history. Talked too much, constantly required a repeated question, was unfunny and gave bad answers about 75% of the time. Most of the time she cost contestants money.
Loved Brett her and CNR gave crazy answers bur that's what made it fun
One of the only thing i can stand to watch,,,,Thanks!
i have neither cable, satellite or digital..with what's on nowadays, what would be the point??..there's *SO MUCH* to choose from here!!!.....
Charles was especially funny in this one.
amen.. Charles is always funny, to me
For fans of The Flintstone Frolics in the early 1980's, Charles Nelson Reilly and Ruta Lee were Frank & Hidea Frankenstone!!!
very interesting, now what did Brett do? is she an actress, singer or what?!
I loved the Flintstones, but never watched when the Fankenstones were on there cause they took a sweet loveable show and turned it into garbage (I don't think that God would have watched when they were on, so I didn't watch either)
I don't know much about Brett, but she was on The Odd Couple in several episodes. I think she did a lot of plays. @@vivianhamilton616
Ruta Lee!!!!
I was thinking Wallflower!
never saw that, when a contestant misunderstood a question, they were given a chance to change their answers..later on, whatever they said, misunderstanding or not, stood...
and it was unfair to the contestant
Danny Hill yep I caught that too... I’m surprised they let that pass and to be honest I think she played it off. I think her answer was camel and lucky for her Gene misunderstood that she MISUNDERSTOOD the question so she was able to quickly change it. She knew what he said... he repeated the question over to the celebs a few times so there is no way she didn’t hear him. Cannibal and camel sound nothing alike except the vowel.
On this date in 1994, The Five Mrs. Buchanans TV Series episode What Child Is This? with Charles Nelson Reilly as Hugh aired.
This is the first episode with the legendary threesome: Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly and Richard Dawson. Cheers!
No it's not they first appeared togethering Episode 11
No, it's not
Brett is plugging her role on the _New Perry Mason_. It bombed.
a 'reboot' of such an iconic show with a less-known lead, not surprising...
That wasn't a good time slot for that program. Not 7:30, and definitely not 7:30 on a Sunday: nine or ten would have been better. We didn't watch it, but my mother would have if it had been on later. Do you remember it, or why it bombed?
I saw it a couple of times it was totally forgettable on every level. Brett Sommers certainly wasn't going to replace Della Street.
Just a general comment, I watched the new (present time) Match Game to compare with the old ones and the new one stinks big time.
Yup. No version after the 73-82 Match Game has ever been as good imo.
"Stay tuned for "Secret Storm" next over most of these CBS stations" would be replaced by "Stay tuned for "Tattletales" next over most of these CBS stations" less than six months later.
once my affiliate dropped 'Secret Storm', they sometimes 'overlayed' Johnny Olsen with a local voice-over..that didn't always work - so every time i heard ''stay tuned for 'Secret Storm.....', it made me mad!!...
LOL The Canadian chose "eh" ("A") I love it
GOD I ❤ THIS SHOW 😍
Me too always have
@@cherylroberts3569 yes
great stuff thanks, Jim
Charles Nelson Reily was a hoot. The $10,000 Pyramid in 1973 episode where he pretended to faint on the floor after a contestant win was gold. Too bad it's WIPED.
Brett’s cackle. Wow.
Not her strong point.
Tom was adorable!
Mercy goodness, that contestant Tom is short compared to Gene!
+n35w101 Gene was around 6 feet. By the way they were standing, if I had to guess, I'd say Tom was about 5'5"
+lakebay972 I'd agree with that.
Kimberly G. ,Donniem
Kimberly G. Very short lol
Tom needed elevator shoes for his appearance(s).
This must have been one of CNR's first MG appearances.
John W Landry nope. He appeared earlier in the season
Ooh is her hair big. This is the 70's. luvin it!
Brett is hilarious! I love her!!!!!
I love her too
She and CNR *were* the show to me as a kid in the 70s (but I grew to love Betty, Fannie, Nipsey, and many others too)!
@@kevansf I'm glad you didn't say Richard
Wonder when Gene held the mic on a permanent basis?
George Master when they got sick of him leaving it when the stage turned around.
Someone said earlier was around Christmas 1973, he go the short mic so either around the beginning of MG74.
Judy: I'm from Canada.
Gene: Pick a question.
Judy: Eh?

Funny, or perhaps not so funny, that Richard was the only person the contestants matched in that first round.
And Ruta Lee! I always liked her on Perry Mason.
And maybe I'm just weird, but I think she sneezed so hard that her *nose* came off! I guess that makes me the odd one out.
many of the female contestants seem very shy and softspoken
like they're on prozac or something
grayadam No, it’s because they’re not full of themselves, not like the women of today who think they’re all that and a bag of chips
Glenn Marshall no... that’s actually how women are supposed to be and we’re back then( we call them ladies)... we’re just used to these loud mouth cantankerous women these days!
Angelofmusic i believe you’re more an Old Testament person than a Jesus from the NT fan who was not so harsh. Good Lord.
Sexism was still a pervading issue in the early 1970's, so that is one of the main reasons...
Who is this "Mona" Charles has referenced in a few episodes?
It's just a silly name he's made up.
Wall *MART* :D
I wonder what people did with the winning money
What was the parting gift
First , the taxman takes his toll
@@cwj144 At the end of every show, Johnny Olson goes over the parting gifts, usually three companies per show. Rice a Roni was a frequent one, but countless companies provided products in exchange for the plug over the years.
Several have .entitled down-payment on houses and a couple have mentioned needing new cars. My Dad bought a sweet 74 Impala Coupe for $4500 taxes/title/license included. I loved that car.
ROFL! Another fine episode! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Gene! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Charles! :0) No response to Gene’s answer so it begins.. ;0) I think that is the first time Gene has faced the camera when reading a question. ;0) Doesn’t look like anyone picked up the card from the super match game before. ;0)
Hard to believe that Richard was married to Diana Dors
she was a British sex symbol type...🤔
She was on the show with Richard at least once. She was very attractive but not great at MG.
Surprising
The amazing Ruta Lee still with us in 2023 !
my goodness.. that dark haired contestant lady is so beautiful and poised
Brett could have said flatulating and it be a legal answer instead of farting, neither would have matched though
I'm sorry folks. I just can not stand Morey Amsterdam. Some of his earlier appearances are riddled with him throwing the answers in favor of cracking a stupid (and often very unfunny) joke. The contestants where trying to match with something that makes sense..(often serious, and funny at the other times...) And this a&&hat just couldn't resist the urge to make a stupid lame joke out of it. Even at the cost of making a 'match'.
yes, him and Brett seem to forget that the contestants are there to make money and the goal of the game is to MATCH the contestants, not show off.
With Morey he had one personality and it was the human joke machine. He couldn't just be Morey and try to match the contestants. He always was the same in every show he was on. Brett was just doing one dimensional Brett.
Attention hog isn't just Brett on this panel, someone else is too.. sigh..
There were a lot of big personalities on this show, and actors are famously needy - Lol
This is the first time saint Richard played in the money round in a LOOONG time!
but when he did play (and even in the game), he's been wrong A LOT!.... and yet they still pick him (go figure)
Bitter party of one, calling bitter party of one!
contestant elaine reminds me of kristen wiig.
Judy was cute. Too bad she didn't have a long run.
Morey should have been a regular .
Tom Thumb just keeps on winning. That little fella is pretty good at guessing what those morons are gonna answer. Matching people that answer for jokes and not to match isn't easy, unless they want you to win and are playing it straight with the wee one.
Morey tries so hard to be funny.
Lowkey Megan Markle!
Oh, gawd! When that Brett woman had to 'grawk' her supposed answer as "I had paper.." even though she was well out of that camera's sight {did they have access to atleast one monitor?}
Well anyway: that attention whoe's voice just about cost me chipping a tooth, my face gritted and my saliva sour attested.
Even my pet looked at me like perhaps, I was suddenly in the spazm of passing petrified peach pit?
I believe there was one to the left of Brett, depending on the episode it can be seen behind Fannie at one time when she wins the head to head and the contestant comes over to hug her, I believe that was MG75. I believe that is the one Charles looks at when he is looking to his left during the game. I think there might be one of the right as well as in MG75 Gene takes of his shoes during a commercial break, they come back without Gene realizing and he craws back on set looking for his show. The camera focus in on his bare foot and the camera also catches a blushing Gene looking towards his right like he is looking at the monitor seeing his bare foot on camera.. But I not sure, I have never seen one over there to the right.. There seems to be one for the audience because during a commercial break the camera comes back for ticket plugs and sneaks up on Gene back, when he discovers it is on him he looks for it and discover the camera is behind and turns around clapping with the audience.. ;0)
@@sdlively27 are you sure about this? Lol. Very detailed Thank you. Are you watching the marathon premieres from this channel. The people commenting their are knowledgeable and we all play along with the show in the chat
@@sdlively27 Bwahhaha
Tom is the cutest hottest man!!! WOOF!
