Thanks very much . She would love it. She loved people, she loved to help others and make us all laugh... She would've loved to hear she was a legend.. definitely , she always stole the show no matter where we were...

I can’t believe a talent scout did not pick her up...I wonder was she really that nervous or was she a brilliant comedian like Lucille ball?

MsKaretto what a lady!!! So much fun watching this episode.

Bud Phineas I like many others here loved your mom! She really made the show entertaining and she wasn’t even trying lol. What a sweet soul i could tell!

Bud Phineas so many years later and I just saw your mom on TV now (Buzzr channel) for the first time and cracked up. I had to Google her because she is naturally hilarious and her facial expressions are gold. Wish I could have found more images or videos of her in her older age. Her humor must have only gotten better with time.

Bud Phineas She certainly missed her calling. She would have been a very gifted comedienne. I'm glad that she had a happy life though...she deserved it!

Jenny Jay, unfortunately Evie passed away in 2011. 😢

just saw your mom on MG today on what is a rainy dull sunday. Not any more! a GEM! Im glad she had 3 more kids after this aired. Lucky family. I hope you enjoyed every minute as this darling lady's son. she left life wayy too young. Bless you all. 😊

Thanks everyone yes, she truly was gifted and she would share her gifts with us everyday teaching us something new and even at our worst, she always found a way to get us right. The gifts are what they are her gifts she gave to her kids and we are eternally grateful to her for this and very thankful for all who still cherish her today. Thanks to all of you as well ❤️

She absolutely stole the show! Long time since I enjoyed the show that much!!

Absolutely inspiring!!!!

@@alysononoahu8702 Well said!

Your cousin (Evie's son), Bud Phineas, commented on here. Did you know?

Condolences on the loss of your aunt. She seemed like a genuinely nice lady.

Watching your aunt in action on my lunch hour this week got me through a rough day of work. I needed the laugh and she delivered in spades.

Aw, very sad to hear she's gone.

Oh sorry you lost your auntie. Mine are dying and it is hard, they are so wise and cool

I thought of Lucy too!

I think when people are naturally funny it is the best, and Evie reminds me of Penny Marshall.

Exactly! I figured she was kin to Lucy!

Would have loved to have seen Lucy turn this into an episode of one of her shows. She would hardly have had to change a thing.

Wish they given her a chance in some type of comedy show, looks like she had natural talent.

For sure !!! I love her !!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Agree!

I agree!

Yes...like everyone's Mom I ever knew

She was very classical in looks, different hair would show them off🦁

Just who the Hell are you? Just because Scott made a positive comment about how much he enjoyed watching Evie and how much fun she was having, if only we had the opportunity to have that much fun with the well loved celebrities, I think that would have been so much fun. It's amazing how many hearts she touched. Because you are a buzz kill, and probably never even seen Evie, doesn't mean he thinks he owns the world. He never said that, if Evie didn't touch alot of lives they wouldn't have put the show on the I Net. That being said, you will not have anybody remember you unless they put you on the most negative, jealous, people to make it on the DICK list. You don't like what he says about the person that was fun and caring, simply don't read it, but don't make fun of someone simply for loving this wonderful person.

Oh btw, learn how to spell.

@@dottiegreen4315 Thank you

@@scottrogers2831 you are welcome, the days Evie was on "MATCH GAME" Is the only time I recorded that show. When I'm feeling down I will watch those episodes and it brings me out of the rut I was in. I have to say, at first I thought, why doesn't she say anything? After they showed her feet bouncing up and down, I paid more attention. She was so nervous and I thought, what a fun Lady. I was really sad when she was no longer on the show. From what I seenThe cast really liked her and had fun while she was on. I'll bet she was the life of the party. She was really beautiful, inside and out. I was wishing there was a place that I could have wrote to her to get her autograph, but at that time I didn't know where to write or call to get one. To me, she is a person that was the star of the show. You are lucky to have had her touch your life. Don't even pay attention to "beings" like what's his nuts David. He is just jealous. I'm not a mean person, it just irritates me, I treat others the way they earn it, positive or negative, I don't mince words.

@DAVID BERMAN Yo David, clearly Dottie bested you. You lost and she has been declared champion of the Internet. The longer you keep at this, the more pungent smelling your complete and utter desperation becomes. You're embarrassing yourself, you stupid troll. Fade into the background and accept the L. *TL;DR:* Hit the road before Dottie has to return and demolish you and your BS once again.

Wait until you come back and watch it again. LoL.

Holy crap! I didn't realize it was an hour-long. I just finished watching and wouldn't have known it was that long had I not noticed your comment. I guess time does fly when you're having fun!

@@lilmsdrummer Lol...yes it does, that's why it's not good to have too much fun!🤣... i.e.,life would be over in a heart beat! Lol...

She was entertaining in the first episode but it was getting old by the second episode.

She was precious. But, too bad she got nervous and blew the easy win in the tie-break by not answering "ironing". They should have brought her back as one of panelists.

She could have been a stand up comedian. She's funnier than Ellen DeGeneres for real 😉

Indubidubly 🙂

They all know what stage fright feels like!

Evie thought so herself....but she was one of my least favorites ever on ANY show. She was "ON" non-stop !

She was entertaining in the first episode but after that watching the same ole thing over and over again was annoying.

I have watched these episodes with Evie numerous times especially when I'm feeling a bit blue and Evie brings me right out of it and I love 💕 it........

@@daisyduke8656how sad that you found her annoying.

Same!

Even all the way up here in the year 2020 and it's so obvious she is so scared but persevered. The crowd toowas laughing with her, not at her. She was just leaving the Watergate era and we're just entering the era of prosecuting Trump and his enabler

@@terryjones9459 You're a dork.

Terry Jones Pay no mind to that numb nut behind the curtain.

@@terryjones9459 wow....watching this to STAY away from politics!!!

Nobody can ever match her.

When the Surgeon is taking out your Appendix the assistant is giving you a ******€

And they could only hint at rude words instead of being overt. It's always funnier (and ruder) to suggest something, and let the audience's own dirty little minds fill in the details. Today's versions of "Match Game" and "Family Feud" are trashy and boring, because they try too hard to be shocking.

Tv was so much better then. I miss it.

Really I think this is documentary on how ridiculously women were treated in the media. Amazingly patronising. Thank goodness it has gone the way of smoking on live tv.

@@bibphil5078 what?

@@kimberlysevastyanenko3798 🤣🤣

I'm with you

Oh she is absolutely so sweet and lovable!!!

No lie! It's true.

With over a million followers on Instagram.

Deodorant commercial??🤣🤣🤣

😁😁😁🤣🤣🤣👌🏼👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤

Priceless!!!

Loved seeing her as a match game contestant. She was so pretty. RIP ANGEL. SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS....

Evie was accidentally amazing. What a cutie. They should have had her back from time to time maybe even on the panel.

I am, too.... for the very same reason .... a part of humanity that sadly no longer exists ..... All this world needs is more Evie's.... and this world has no idea what it's missing.

Great comment Millie I never realized this until you pointed this out and you're absolutely correct in your assessment!!!

I agree with Richard Dawson

I think Brett is a real hamburger

agree!!! She has amazing comedic timing you can tell.

She was great. The control room was having fun with the camera shots, too. This was fun TV.

want to chat?

Talk about a female bob newhart

Evy was annoying

I am thinking it would be fun to show to my high school students before their speeches. They get so nervous!

I was thinking the same thing! Poor dear looks green

Little did we know, it's 2021 and all we can be excited about is $600...

1975 $600 Today's money: $2,917.27

You must be rich, I would be super excited about 600 even now.

@@teijaflink2226 I'm not rich. I was just thinking about all it took to be on that show - time off from work, traveling, taxes, etc. Winning $600, she might have ended up a bit over breaking even. Loll

I still get excited about $600

2021 and i wish the match game was still here!!

@@lindapinerotirpak8601 i

I agree 100%! She was very beautiful!! Love those eyes too!!

only you amateurs do not realize she was playing it up she cleverly knew every face she pulled...but honestly evie making faces does not make you a pro comedian..nice try tho..RIP ANYWAY EVIE..WE PROS SAW THROUGH IT THAT WAS FUNNY

I said the same thing, totally has the Lucy expressions.

GetVictd they were constantly drinking on this version too. What’s your problem?

We had no choices. 3 at the most and only on a certain day at a certain time. Who would choose this today?

Like that was a goal for women back then. I grew up then and my mother was a psychologist. Too bad they don't appreciate stay at home mothers these days, that's what I ended up doing.

I wish times were like it was in the 60’s and 70’s

@A M Thank you. Since most mental health people want to blame any problems a person has on their mother, that model doesn't really make sense now with children being raised by daycare and schools and other extra curricular activities. It was great for my kids AND their friends who would always come over, and it allowed my husband to focus on his career and not worry if the kids would be OK.

Marriage and motherhood still are, and always will be, a worthy goal. They provide much opportunity for her, and for her family. It’s where the most women can have the greatest influence and make the most positive impact for good, for their families, and for generations to come.

My Mom auditioned for Wheel of Fortune and the first thing she said @ 79 yrs old was "I'm single"!! AND SHE HAD A BF!! Then as she told her hobbies, she said gardening and told the audience "everybody come get some tomatoes" the crowd was roaring ... then she did a line dance and had everyone clapping along!! I just lost her JAN 4th, her audition video will always make me LOL Rest sweetly Dearest Mom.... until we meet again!!

Here's another bright spot for 2021... 🌷YOU are Special to God!🌷

@@heidilefevre2680 ♥️♥️ As are you! ♥️♥️ Thanks.💐

I do the same thing…every time I feel down I put Evie on…love her!

Shawni Ysais , yeah for sure ! 😬. They could be twins.

I thought so too

And Alice Ghostley...

She reminds me of Mo Collins when she did the character Lorraine on Mad TV

That was such a great show !!

+Robert K here you go: Evie I watched a game called Match Show in nineteen seventy five it was on t.v.. Evie Phineas is a contestant I now know whose episodes said so much to me.... Her nervousness came right through the screen, Host Gene Rayburn helped her to calm her down. She was the most unwilling winner that I've seen, with her facial expressions to rival a clown. Now my heart belongs to Mrs. Evie, and I'm sure it will for the rest of my life. but I'll carry this love, though it's heavy, for she passed on as another man's wife. Still I'll watch Evie's episodes in rerun clips, and laugh with sweet shy Evie just the same. Perhaps this'll go to God's ears from my lips, and one day I'll meet Evie, the Queen of Match Game. by Kathleen Hussey (for Robert K 8/22/2021)

@@KathyHussey063 Wow! Thank you, very much! That was very sweet.

@@robertk4898 You're very welcome sir, your comment made me just have to write something! I probably could've made it a bit better but I didn't have much time that day. I'm glad you liked it, Evie cracked me up too.

She is so nervous and so cute

Lucy move over.

@MultiBagram Did I? Star Trek, right?

Andy Kaufman on the Dating game! This is what she reminds me of! It's like they both took a wrong turn and ended up way out of place on these game shows! I loved the girl asked Andy a dating question and he just replies, "What?"

I'll be damned I didnt know that thanks!

I just got around to reading that - she was talented and quite prolific

She is a very talented writer.

Really, I absolutely love the movie, such a heart warming but very sad story.

No! 🙄

Did she end up with her own TV show cuz I'm telling you she's hilarious

That's ok, I'm sure she was very Relieved it was over! And the audience was happy that she put herself out there for that long

She was annoying

Yes!!! I couldn't figure out who she reminded me of. Kind of a cross between Gilly and the Target Lady. Mostly though, she reminds me of my mom. Cute, adorable, sweet innocence, animated and so dearly missed.

Wiig would be funnier characterizing the others. She's a gem.

11 yr today ❤️

Yes!!

I'd say it was more than innuendo!

He creeped on the women often beyond what was cute or funny. I loved him as a child but watching it now I find him offensive.

@@bluebee5266 It was a different era. Society views sure ha e changed since.
