Thank you for these blast of the past. Spent many afternoons after school with these people they became friends. A refuge from bullies.

Excellent show. I never grow tire of Match Game. Charles Nelson Reilly is my favorite.

I do believe this was the card-flingingest episode of the entire series. Love CNR. 💜🤣

Still the best game show ever . !

Always loved this show. I half expected someone to say, when the cowboy dressed as a cow, someone tried to brand him. ROFL

Sometimes it's better to listen than to be heard,Brett sommer's always had something to say when Richard would talk,or she had a great answer when she laid out or we had the answer up here for the big money. R.i.p Mr Dawson thanks for the memories.

I was about to make a negative comment about the sandpaper/sand match, but then realized that sand is what makes sandpaper what it is, and I can see why the match was allowed.

Dawson at 6:13 … wait for it…😂😂😂

Nipsey: "GENE, WILL YOU STOP NAGGING?!"

Gene's really pushing this episode along FAST today!

This was the week that The Sunshine Boys was in theaters.Loved that movie.EnTERRR!

Blushing bride.

funny show, always thought joyce was adorable.

H/H match update: After only a couple of weeks, the "new rule" for selecting H/H match celebs has been discarded, and I doubt many will lament its passing. Gene abruptly informs us today that they've gone back to the "old rule," and now the returning champion may select whomever she wishes. She wishes to choose Richard again! This time it doesn't work out for her, but it's hard to blame Richard for not matching the contestant's obscure reference... (Note: the contestant says she matches Richard at home, so that's a legitimate reason to choose him. Sometimes though I get the feeling some contestants simply choose him because everyone else does.) We also have a second H/H match with a second contestant who likewise chooses Richard and likewise fails to match him... Here's the updated leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: Orson Bean - 100% (3 wins in 3 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). TIE: Betty - 50% (15 wins in 30 attempts). TIE: Fannie - 50% (8 wins in 16 attempts). Charles - 45.7% (16 wins in 35 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Brett - 37.8% (14 wins in 37 attempts). Richard - 37.0% (95 wins in 257 attempts). Bert - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 483, 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!")

This show is SINFUL without the commercials: its like a cake that's all icing.

Zandy's Bride? Richard: we knew one person had seen the movie. Now we know it was YOU.

Joyce is still as funny as ever, and she fits in so well with the regulars. I do wonder what happened to Lee Meredith, though.

Lovely Lee Meredith...VERY DEEP SIGH ;)

I don't think I've ever seen two women in the same room more different than Lee Meredith and Brett Somers. For every positive quality that Lee possessed Brett was there to provide the polar opposite of it. Unfortunately, it was Brett who was the regular panelist. Such is life.

I Think this is the episode where the rule that you can't pick the same person twice was scrapped.

On this date in 1993, Wind in the Wire TV Movie with Charles Nelson Reilly aired.

Brett's cackling is contagious! This show goes great 👍with 🐔chicken noodle soup.

Heddy sure looked a lot like Sally Field. Pretty lady!

These are good times when people were not worried about political correctness but just had fun

Thanks for posting!!!!❤❤❤

Does anyone notice how much Heddie looked like Sally Field, minus the hair?

17:14 "Allright Earl, slide the 500 dollar number ".

How cold was that studio? CNR looks like he's wearing a blanket!

Definitely one of those "after-lunch" episodes!

Thanks for Uploading Good Friend.

thankyou forshowing richard dawson heoneofthekind

Richard Dawson was such a charming man

Heddie's look was straight out of Nashville on this episode. Despite the wig and crazy clothes, she was '70s cute.

I had mail order bride lol

Only Lee Meredith and Joyce Bulifant is still alive now in 2022.

Thank you again for uploading

Wow. They rescinded the rule that kept people from choosing the same celebrity twice for the super match.

Richard (about Lee: "Why do I keep looking at her and thinking half and half?"

Zandy's Bride starred Gene Hackman and Liv Ulman (1974)

That girl is a home economics major in college. She's studying to be a wife. Imagine having that major today. 😅🤣😂

Heddie looks like Sally Field.

IMHO Match Game, Hollywood Squares (of this era/not later versions), and (Dawson's) Family Feud, best three games shows ever~ tied for first place. Richard Dawson may have been a prima dona and could be a PIA, but he was damned near psychic as a player. (Giving credit wear due.)

Cheese Whiz

Do they still teach Home Economics, even in high school or junior high anymore? I've lived in Japan for over 30 years now, so I don't know. Seems like something they would have dropped by now. FWIW, I teach English as a Foreign Language at a high school here, and they teach Home Ec. here. It's required.

Lee Meredith is 74 now (May 2022) and Joyce Bulifant is 84

A home economics major? Never heard that before

Lee Meriweather looks stunning here.

The hair back then on some broads, man, I miss that.

Tar was my answer, too.

Re: blank bride, I thought of Child or December. I could hear Richard writing a longer word, I would have said December.

Lots of people say negative things about Brett, but I like her.

What happened with the music at 3:40-ish?

Heddy looks like a character Jan Hooks or Tracey Ullman would play.

Even gay men think Lee was sexy!

Sexual innuendo throughout the show even starting off with the otherwise inocuos comment about his double-breasted suit was nothing much until he look down at the woman in front of him

They could have said Judas goat, or scapegoat also; methinks these answers are a little too ‘context Rehearsed’ for comfort 🤔🤨

I think the correct answer is rocks every other answer is Ludacris

The better Ulla (from "The Producers"): Lee Meredith (1967) or Uma Thurman (2005)?

LEE MEREDITH was a spectacularly beautiful woman..

ROFL! Another fine episode! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Gene! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Charles! :0) Love the entrances, silliness, voices, acting and the fun Gene! ;0) camera in shot! ;0) naturally that was the one that Brett gave you.. ;0) sandpaper! ;0) I join the list of great answers here on daytime tv with tar! ;0) mud! ;0) I thought your answer was very strange and being very strange myself .. ;0) Sometimes isn't it strange how the weird strange answers score here.. ;0) clapping! ;0) We all love each other here can't you tell? ;0) tinkling! ;0) tap dancing! ;0) I get your for that one Charles! :0) Bowing! ;0) Do you know Charles and I have the same mother? And we both were tap dancing.. ;0) milked! ;0) If you put milk in good gravy marie you get a thicker saurce.. ;0) Thank you Gene! ;0) Brett and Charles beat Richard! ;0) buried! ;0)

Such a great formula- Actor far too intelligent for the show, Brett and CNR, Beautiful Girl, Richard Dawson (the pro) and finally the ditz.

wonder why they undid the new rule? I kinda liked it

"_____ goat" - and "scapegoat" didn't come up?

Sand matches sand paper ?

Two [2] with bright white HAIR!

Ladies and gentlemen, "Its Don King"! I mean, "wayne". sigh.

Not my best answers for today :( billy, here comes the, spikes, posing, milk, tinkled on (I blanked), step, burger

Sand and sand paper? Hmm.

Is lee meredith still alive???

Bret is kind of a doofus

I'm glad they got rid of that stupid rule that tried to shut out Richard Dawson.

Oh FFS, there's no way these people had never heard of Smokey Robinson, good grief.

Geesh, I hate it when Richard (Gene too) make such a big deal about a big chested woman. The women wear tight blouses/sweaters then act either shocked or shy and demure about their rude comments. I wonder why Gene is always picking on Nipsey...I fell in love with Nipsey Russel when I was 8 yrs old and told everyone I was going to marry him when I grew up :) I read somewhere that he never married.

Match Game 71?! Did I hear that right?!

Can you still get a degree in home economics??

Heddy made it much too easy for Marty to win, I think she's a natural blonde from the answers she gave. But I digress because Marty isn't very dumb. And I thought dawsons jokes couldn't get any dumber

And yet we have ANOTHRE non funny joke by saint Richard! But on a BRIGHTER note! he lost again for the contestant again (twice).... but they keep picking him, so can't really feel bad for them)
