Richard Dawson asking Gene, "Have you ever given your luggage to a man wearing a mask?" In 2021, that's "normal ".

Well, it's official; Bonnie Franklin has proven herself enough of a weirdo to be accepted into the MG Panelist Pantheon.

I'd forgotten how cute Bonnie Franklin was. RIP

Horrers, terrible contestants, contestant with claws, dancing Rayburn, yoga. Best show ever

Yoga with Bonnie, Gene, Gene, the dancing machine and a contestant with talons...

On this date in 1989, All Dogs Go to Heaven movie with Charles Nelson Reilly as Killer (voice) aired.

Gidget goes to Woodstock? Gene is a terrific dancer :)

2:59 So good, even a dance goes with it!

What's with the hideous music while the stars are writing there answers for the first and third questions? I like the normal music that goes "Wawnt dawnt de de de de de de de wawnt dawnt de de de de de de" like they played for the second one.

ROFL!! Another good episode, Gene never seemed to take himself too seriously.. ;0)

I didn't know Gene could dance like that, he looks like Skeletor.

house of usher, rising sun, cards......so many

IN 2020 everybody gives their luggage to someone wearing a mask.

I would have said House of Cards

That music is weird. After the “brick” episode, Patty is growing on me actually 😂 I just miss my favorite Fannie. And gene, please don’t dance 😂 I love all your hard work, MGP

"House of Horrers"? Really? Did no one else realize, including the MG staff, that it is House of Horrors? I guess not. Illiterate people working on that show.

i could never sit that way even as a kid

Van Nuys, California, is the governmental center of the San Fernando Valley area of the City of Los Angeles.

Dam Richard that was a total ass move

H/H match update: ... Quick recap: This is our returning champion's fourth visit to the Super Match. The first time he won $500 from the audience match, but he and Richard didn't match in the H/H. Round two, the champ struck out altogether on the audience match. Late time, he finally won the big money with Richard's help. Today's audience match question: "House of ________ " The celebs: Richard (Flowers -??), Charles (Suede - ??), and Brett (Ill repute) I'm not sure what Richard and Charles were thinking. Maybe something from the 1970s that I don't recall? Brett's answer sounds like the best bet to me. I'm wondering about house of cards. I'm pretty sure that was an expression long before the TV series. The choice: Ill repute The answers: Seven Gables (oh yeah, duh!), Horrers (sic!), Ill repute Whew. I honestly wasn't sure it'd be there. It's rare that the third celebrity chosen comes up with the top answer, but if not for Brett, the celebs would have totally struck out on the audience match today (even counting Scoey's fourth suggestion "of Rothschild"). I imagine the champ will stick with Richard, but let's see... Well, I just about fell off my chair at the same time Brett did when he called on her. I really enjoy watching Brett play the H/H with her dramatic nervousness! This is her 51st attempt, and her first shot at it since episodes 573 (no match) and 561 (match)... Today's H/H question: " ________ Wave" Hmm. Because of Gene's pre-question patter ("...get those thought waves going between the two of you - remember thought waves are electricity..."), I thought of thought wave, or even brainwave. I don't think this is going to be an easy match... Check out 17:49, right after Gene reads the question, he turns toward the judge and raises his eyebrows, seemingly recognizing the coincidence that had occurred. Brett writes an answer of at least four or five letters as she agonizes. Completely ignoring Gene's unintentional hint, the champ says "Permanent" wave. I have to admit, that's a great answer, although the audience didn't seem to like it much. They shouted out answers such as heat wave and shock wave, so there seem to be a lot of decent answers with no truly definitive choice. Brett clearly didn't match, judging from her reaction... She said she'd thought of permanent, but discarded it because the contestant is a man, and she wrote "tidal," another good answer. No match today. (Commentary: Today was the fourth or fifth time recently where Richard has held up a card with the "correct" answer after another celeb has played an unsuccessful head-to-head match. I'm not sure what the point is and I find it, well, sort of cruel and childish. I get that he doesn't like it when another celeb is chosen, but really, he's chosen the vast majority of times, and it isn't enough?) Here's the updated leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: Orson Bean - 100% (4 wins in 4 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). Fannie - 52.6% (10 wins in 19 attempts). Charles - 47.7% (21 wins in 44 attempts). Betty - 46.9% (15 wins in 32 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 40.4% (147 wins in 364 attempts). Brett - 37.2% (19 wins in 51 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 639, 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!")

Panelists: 1. Scoey Mitchell 2. Brett Somers 3. Charles Nelson Reilly 4. Bonnie Franklin 5. Richard Dawson 6. Patti Deutsch

great without the commercials

I would have said microwave but that would have made me a visitor from the future.😲

Bonnie was doll, I hope she's my buddy in heaven ❤

being mechanically minded, Even as a kid watching this show back in the 70's I always wondered what kind of motor they had under the spinning platform that would be strong enough to move 2 people, a counter, and the background set wall. I know it must have had rollers around the periphery. and more then likely a GRU or Gear Reduction Unit. to give it more pulling power. also never figured out why they didn't have a mechanism . to slide the panels back to revel the answer. the mechanics would not have been that complicated.... no offense to the man who did the sliding behind the wall tho. . .

Richard and the first male contestant didn’t change clothes between episodes.

Well that is the second time Gene had accidently given a possible answer to the head to head and knew it.. ;0) Other was later on in MGSynd? where he said This is it and the head to head question was This is blank.. ;0)

Gene, gene the dancing machine

It seems you can hardly EVER count on the panel to be unanimous, especially when the answer begs for tinkle, it's damned if you do and damned if you don't. I wasn't sure if house of usher was even a thing back then

brain wave? i guess there were no microwaves?

Seem to be some inconsistencies with the game play here in order to force challenger contestant out. Anyone, anyone?

Can anyone out there in KZfaq land tell me what Brett is famous for doing? I mean I like her long with everyone else, I just don't know what she do.

I love that ladies long nails

Gene is soooo missed 😢

Has anyone seen the episode that Betty is talking about at the end of the video at 2:50? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mKuKnqafubGrh2g.html

Dickie Dawson did NOT have permanent wave as an answer he wrote it down after the contestant says it just to show off no way he would have said that during the actual Head-to-Head and the way he always pouts his lips is disgusting.
