Amazing! This contestant and Joyce were obviously on the same wavelength! -- I've been watching from the first episode, and I don't recall any other contestant getting the maximum winnings 3 games in a row. -- Side note, the first thing I though of was a "bunch of bull" (+/- the "s" word), but then I decided I'd better play it safe and say grapes!
Well this was an interesting week for H/H matches! Unlike most recent weeks, Richard was *not* the go-to celebrity chosen. Joyce Bulifant was chosen 3 times -- and incredibly matched all three of them, so now she moves up to the big leader board in a tie with Orson for a perfect score. Obviously though, with such scant data, that accuracy score is less significant, but the fact is clear: Joyce is a sharp player and perfectly capable of coming up with a winning answer for the head-to-head match. But as we've seen in the past, there's no guarantee that Joyce will be selected again any time soon -- Orson has been on the panel a week or two since his earlier matches without ever being selected again, and even Betty White can go a week or two without being chosen by a contestant. Fannie also has an excellent record based on 13 attempts, but wasn't chosen again this week... Anyway, here's the updated leader board showing the *10* celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: TIE: Orson Bean - 100% (3 wins in 3 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 100% (3 wins in 3 attempts). Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). Betty - 54.2% (13 wins in 24 attempts). Fannie - 46.2% (6 wins in 13 attempts). Charles - 45.7% (16 wins in 35 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 34.6% (63 wins in 182 attempts). Bert - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). Brett - 32.1% (9 wins in 28 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 380, excluding the lost/missing episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325. (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!")
@@ts.elliot5870 yes but the panelists were hardly major celebrities. Often the more famous ones were just there for one taping session to plug a new network show, kind of like doing a late night show appearance. The less famous ones were probably thinking of the PR exposure. I doubt they were paid much. They do have a minimum according to the SAG rules or something. Brett Sommers hardly has any acting credits other than TV series appearances, so this was a good gig for her.
Marcia was somewhat shortchanged in the goodby department by time constraints. They were coming up against the clock and since it was the end of the week, Gene needed a few extra seconds to preview the galaxy of stars who would appear next time. But I doubt she was too heartbroken after her major winnings haul!
Marcia Kaufman matched three times in a row with Joyce as others have mentioned. I find it cool that she used her money for a down payment on a home and later went into real estate. She is a broker in Huntington Beach CA. As is my roommates mom.
@@sixstring1965 - interesting life. She lived in the Boston & Martha's Vineyard area, wrote several books For Dummies about IT, got her MBA, and died of breast cancer in 2017. Thanks for the link.
I'm guessing that Fred McMurrary was a very laid back, quiet and boring guy. It'd be a very long bus ride from LA to Alabama sitting next to him. Just guessing though.
Well kind of a slow week althou Joyce went 3 attempts to 3 matches on head to heads giving away 16,000 dollars in head to heads and audience match matches with 11 matches for the semi regulars.. Richard gave away 6,250 in audience match and head to head matches with 11 matches as well for the regulars..OH! Joyce takes over the lead for the first time from Richard for the panelist who has given away the most money thus far this season! Joyce 16,000, Richard 14,750..
Brett: Didn't you used to be (NYC) Mayor LaGuardia? Gary: Didn't you used to be Charlie Ruggles? (A comic American character actor. In a career spanning six decades, Ruggles appeared in close to 100 feature films). Fred MacMurray was an American actor and singer who appeared in more than 100 films and a successful television series during a career that spanned nearly a half-century, from 1930 to the 1970s. (Not sure what Fanny's reference means, maybe he had a squeaky clean image but was self-absorbed in real life). Farley Granger was an American actor, best known for his two collaborations with director Alfred Hitchcock. Raymond Burr as Chief Ironside, a consultant for the SFPD, who was paralyzed from the waist down after being shot while on vacation. (quite a cruel joke by Richard there, and it may have affected the answers).
@@mrnmrsifl Tommy Kirk played Willoughby Daniels, a teenager who became a shaggy dog, in the original film. Fred MacMurray played his father. Dean Jones played an adult Willoughby in the sequel called, "The Shaggy D.A.".
It was a dumb question, a rotten question even, but all those panelists with reference to chickens in their answers were even dumber. The chickens were just the source of the feathers.
Not only this but I couldn't help but notice that while they're showing her (Christina), we also see what looks like where they put the stuff for the fee plugs that we never see anymore.
Wondering if this episode will be as wild as 379 was... ;0) Hmm I wonder if that was one those "Turkey" cameras left over from the 60's ver of Match Game shot in New York??? Wonder if anyone understand what I am talking about... ;0) ROFL!! Another good episode from the after dinner taping collection.. ;0) Well Gene thought alot of that question didn't he, he put it in the trash can.. ;0)
'had a date with Ironsides but stood him up?' Ironsides was in a wheelchair and this was supposed to be funny? sorry but Dawson could be not only un-funny but even tasteless
uh uh- certain jokes are not funny and this is one of them. would you make fun of a blind man or a girl who lost both legs? what form of 'humor' would that be? You grow up and try to express yourself w/o swear words- they don't make you into an intellectual just a boor
Greg Morris was very handsome , and loved him on Mission Impossible .
Omgosh, 3xs in a row for Joyce w/Marcia, amazing!! 💥💥💥💥💥
Wow!

YAAAAAY!! saint Richard was given the shaft (at least for a few days)
Richard's Stan Laurel impersonation was on the money in this episode.
He was good at Paul Lynde and WC Fields as well
A bearded Dicky Dawson is a lovely thing 🥰

Are you sure she's perfect? Your post with show 300 lists her as 0-for-1
Wow 3xs with Joyce. Great job to both! 💥🎉😊
YAAAAAY saint Richard was given the shaft (at least for a few days)
Joyce was as mart as she was pretty!
I adore all the hugs on this show ❣️
I love Richard Dawson
The more his beard grew, the more handsome he looked. RIP Richard.
LOOOL OK
Wonder if any of celebrities ever thought "geez these contestants are getting more than we're being paid" 🤣🤣🤣
in just one game LOL.
i wonder if any of them sometimes would get jealous and boycott the now rich contestant on purpose by giving them the wrong answer.😄
The show was very successful for a long time. I've never seen and numbers but I'm guessing there was enough money to make it interesting.

Joyce Bulifant is a real cutie.
Wow Marcia was sent off quickly, usually a few words are made. She was either very humble or very confident haha . Lucky, blessed girl!

This was a good episode. Joyce was not so ditzy.
Joyce is not a ditz, she just plays one on TV.
Didn’t come into this world until 10 years after match game ended And I absolutely love this show
Terri was such a kind soul and had a beautiful personality.
It would be nice to catch up with the contestants
I love the Vienna poll.....my hometown....the best in the world!
Christina can't help but bang the camera once in awhile!
most sexy camera girl i seem probably ever lol. because it's usually a man behind the camera, camera man is the title for that job for a reason.
Terri really lucked out getting such easy ones each time.
Marcia too.
Rare to see Joyce chosen for Super Match
She matched twice! Which is tremendous considering she usually gives strange off-the-wall answers that rarely ever match!
@@dannyboyy8465 it was actually 3 in a row with Marcia on the Super Match
@@dannyboyy8465 they gave her simple ones to match
@@garfield2439 true.
16,000+ to the same person on a roll consecutively, doesn't that convince you yet?
Gene flashing his vocabulary prowess once again by complimenting Teri (Teresa) on her mellifluous name.
He probably practiced in advance. He knew who the contestants would be.
@@mehboobkm3728 all he needed was a dictionary. He only worked a few days a week. Plenty of time to learn new words.
He was a very successful DJ they make their living by speaking. I'm sure he had an above average vocabulary. Being very outgoing didn't hurt.
Fannie was beautiful
Marsha was super cute; wonder what she's up to these days, 43 years later

@@lumpyrutherford875 Thanks for the update. That is definitely her!
Wow Richard is extra happy today
Gene Hamilton I noticed that too. Genuine giggling with Fannie. Side note, I’m sure Richard wanted to say manhood instead of passion.
Very different from him at the end of his time on the show.
7:30 Remember this one being used on the Baldwin MG, with the guy answering "hair."
Did anyone understand Fannie’s joke about Brett’s Christmas gift? A bus ticket to Birmingham sitting next to Fred MacMurray?!?
I'm guessing that Fred McMurrary was a very laid back, quiet and boring guy. It'd be a very long bus ride from LA to Alabama sitting next to him. Just guessing though.
In the '70s Fred MacMurray was a spokesman for Greyhound Bus and did a lot of TV commercials for them.

Fred MacMurray was "The Shaggy Dog". That's what I thought she meant, but wasn't sure if it was him or Dean Jones in that movie until I looked it up.

Poor Dawson... going several head-to-heads on the sidelines pre Star Wheel
And to make matters worse, he's only allowed one hug with Gene per episode!
Yeah, I'd feel sorry for saint Richard too lol
Too bad there wasn't a PM show yet for an extra taping that day. Some of them were pretty lit these last two shows.
I've heard Brett and Richard say that they don't drink.
@@pencils812Brett definitely drank. Richard and Gene didn't drink.
It was a dumb question, a rotten question even, but all those panelists with reference to chickens in their answers were even dumber. The chickens were just the source of the feathers.
Lots of dumb questions.
My thought was that they would tar and feather your driveway. I know. Dumb answer.
@@dmnemaine yikes!
Interesting how Christina and the camera crew are not listed in the closing credits.
Not only this but I couldn't help but notice that while they're showing her (Christina), we also see what looks like where they put the stuff for the fee plugs that we never see anymore.
Get your paws out of my porridge!
No Vienna Boys choir?
Edward Lozano , Charles wasn't there !!!
That’s what I thought ! 😊
I think they were EXTRA drunk for this episode!
Oh she was Edna on the Simpson's, was trying to know why she was so familiar
Who?
Marcia Wallace voiced Edna Crabapple on The Simpsons. She wasn't on the panel in this episode.
@@dmnemaine ok.
Christina was beautiful. 🙂 And I wouldn’t even be born until 76 😬
Marcia is so pretty though.
Ok, just wondering, when did Gene start parting his hair on the left again?
I wonder why Marc never got a award for best directing except for TPIR, several for TPIR.. ;0)
That was also HIS (Marc Breslow's) voice we heard @9:50.
Wondering if this episode will be as wild as 379 was... ;0) Hmm I wonder if that was one those "Turkey" cameras left over from the 60's ver of Match Game shot in New York??? Wonder if anyone understand what I am talking about... ;0) ROFL!! Another good episode from the after dinner taping collection.. ;0) Well Gene thought alot of that question didn't he, he put it in the trash can.. ;0)
I don't like how Gene walks in like a king.
Thought the same thing.
'had a date with Ironsides but stood him up?' Ironsides was in a wheelchair and this was supposed to be funny? sorry but Dawson could be not only un-funny but even tasteless
me not you And nasty/dirty. Kinda hated it when this show went that route.
Grow the fuck up. It was a joke
Also that is twice he used that joke, must be running out of material..
This was back in the day when people weren't so fragile and looking for any excuse to tell everybody that they're offended.
uh uh- certain jokes are not funny and this is one of them. would you make fun of a blind man or a girl who lost both legs? what form of 'humor' would that be? You grow up and try to express yourself w/o swear words- they don't make you into an intellectual just a boor
