Me!!!

Golden age of television!!!!

I cringe seeing the one with Alec Baldwin thats over the top poor entertainment

@@drewski1535 And I think because in the 70s they have to be more censorious, it made it funnier with the double entendre. Also, they could drink. And Gene's just funny.

@@drewski1535 the worst

Nothing like the robots of todays personalities on tv

No Gene No Show. and Charles

HE

That was a good moment. I liked fanny's last answer and the improv act afterward.

Not very PC, but alot of fun and silliness.

Yes, watching these again after all these years made me laugh my blank off

Indubidubly 🙂

No

Yes, her play towards the new camera was Gold!!!

Same

Agreed!!

George Wallass FTFY 😝

Priceless, and so ahead of its time for the atmosphere of that time.

Scoey was brilliant. Great angry stare

With two s’s at the end…. Wallass

Loved Scoey on Match Game and on Tattletales with his fabulous wife Claire.

I think she was ready, and serious. What a cutie!!

Drew and Brett Somers too never forget about Brett

Betty White too ! Fannie Flagg !

Hudson Graham NEVER forget Brett

I'll say they were huge, but there were others who were hilarious as well.

I'm so glad I'm happy to watch reruns of it on gsn and on buzzr!

I think I’m starting to develop one lol also I think most people have crushes on actors who where in movies / tv shows that were made way before they were born. 99% of my celebrity crushes are from stuff that was way before I was born lol

I do I do! 😝

yes!!!!!

Sleazy af.

not me....

I couldn't believe it either!!

Politician

Fall guy

Circus clown.

Suop server

Announcer for Steve Allen?

My late uncle used to call him Gene ASSburn. 😆

Sounds like a TPIR buzzer. I liked when they did a sound like a "moo" from a Fisher Price Barnyard set for Brett. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bqeWapyA3rfXqWw.html

@@ochsj1971 That IS the TPIR Buzzer. I like to call it The Big Buzzer.

@@ochsj1971 Makes sense considering both shows were taped in the same studio at the time.

They should have used it a lot more often...especially in a losing situation at any point either in the regular game, super match, or head to head. Or when a really stupid answer was given.

@@eyehatefarcebook11 Ideal spot: The score is 5-6... ("URRRNT") The Head-To-Head for $10-20,000...("URRRNT")

He even starred alongside Schwarzenegger in The Running Man.

....and he passed away with only $100,000 in the bank.

How did that happen?@@mrmustangman

@@ukrandr he must have hidden it in trusts or something for his kids.... he had 3 kids an ex wife, a wife and four grandkids.... he was in so many movies and shows that there is no way he had only 100k.... he died of throat cancer right after being diagnosed...

​@@mrmustangmanHe wasnt in that many movies, could have spent it easily enough. Living in L.A. can do that.

lmao..they were so drunk.the good old days,when people really knew how to have fun.

Fade! Bye!

There is a reboot of match game, can’t recommend it. It’s boring and the celebrity guests are awful.

@@ky-gp4sz and incredibly raunchy. What made the 70s version great was that you couldn't say that stuff outright. Part of the fun was coming up with ways to say things. With today's version, they just straight up say it and it's no fun.

John, the FUN is gone because the TV laws are such that EVERYTHING has to be politically correct. God forbid everyone just relaxes, NO way. Every word said has to be scripted perfectly or someone will be offended, so we have what we have STIFF NO fun politically correct game shows. SAD, VERY SAD

So true ! That show could never survive in todays hyper-sensitive world where offending someone is a more serious crime than first degree murder. Twitterverse would erupt ! Media outlets would report on what three people said on Twitter! Gene Rayburn would be suspended! CBS would issue an apology ! Surely one day the pendulum will swing back, probably when this generation of snowflakes starts having grandchildren.

That was a one-time deal. Charles didn't like it; so they did away with it.

Who, what?

I know and I miss those days to.

@@nickhill8612 Amen!

I liked Fannie Flagg’s answer to that question: “Take you? I can’t even MOVE you!”

say what.??????

Charles Nelson, loved his attitude.

Another time, it was “Power HUOSE.”

Dang it Earl.

TPIR ended when Drew took over. Thank goodness for The Barker Era on PlutoTv to watch the hilarious episodes.

I think they stopped adding the number in 80

Don't know but that was priceless. And he's still alive at age 90!

W-A-L-L-A-C-E

J Ochs Dawson didn’t drink.

Richard didn't drink, as Kathy said. He was just tired. He was filming episodes for both Match Game and his own show Family Feud. And on top of that, he was doing a telethon the night before they filmed this episode. He was just tired from working too much, that's all.

Not all the funny moments can be attributed to the lavish dinners they served these celebrities. Gene Rayburn said in an interview in the middle of season three there was talk of cancellation. Rayburn decided that if they were going to be cancelled they mine as well have as much fun before they go. Plus, these people were good friends who truly liked each other, and you know how crazy things can get when you are with your best friends.
