I absolutely ADORE Betty White!!!!!

[@David-iv6je]

Rest in Peace Betty White

RIP Betty White The Queen of Game Show 1922-2021

[@HaleTheTrev]

Queen of TV

[@VideoAmericanStyle]

Yeah…she did WAY more than game shows.

[@BarbaraJohnson-dl1gf]

Queen of TV 😢😢 🙏

[@432leumas]

Me: "Aw, Betty looked so cute when she was young!" *Go check how old she was in 1974 and realise she was already 52.* Me: "Wow, goddam Betty life was kind with you"

[@KairuHakubi]

If you were Age, could you bring yourself to afflict her? Naw you'd rarely show up to work on those days. "Sorry, can't make Betty White older this year, I've got a cold." Actually, at the end, she does a certain distinctive thing with her voice and her smile that give her age away. she briefly turns into Shirley Temple, and you realize oh yeah.. she's.. Shirley Temple's age. actually slightly older. And that is how 30s kids learned to smile and giggle I think.

[@slyguythreeonetwonine3172]

Holy shit never thought about that.....🤔

[@mcplutt]

52 is young

[@ThatMusicGuyAu]

Life was kind to all of us for getting to share it with Betty White.

[@jackson5116]

she looked petty young most of her life, because even at 99 she looked like she was in her 80's.

[@Angie-Pants]

Her genuine joy and excitement for the dude is so apparent and one of the things that made her so beloved.

[@taykeandre6758]

I just love seeing Betty White play these game shows, she’s so witty and naturally funny. Plus, I love watching her act in anything she’s in. Seeing her smile will always be something that uplifts my spirit. And I’ll always cherish her for that. ♥️🥰

[@NOTHEOTHERGUY]

Betty was a natural! Loved her on these game shows, especially Match Game!

[@laurelremington2056]

The lesson learned is you always pick Betty White on a game show! A great legend!

[@mlchc9004]

I love Betty White & Allen Ludden, a match made in heaven

[@yvonnepalmquist8676]

No truer than this week. 😥

[@deathrays]

Rest in peace Betty, we love you always and forever!

[@AndySaenz]

Wow, Betty was really the ultimate golden girl! She helped him win $5,500 right here! Rest in Heaven, Betty White.

[@transgressivechemist5084]

RIP Betty White you were an absolutely beautiful soul and funny as hell God bless you our forever golden girl

[@Iconoclasher]

That was Joe Flynn's last game show appearance. This was taped January 5 1974. He died the following July.

[@abe_froman8360]

RIP Betty White. Thank you for all the laughs.

[@maximilianovilla_]

Betty White was just the best. The absolute best. RIP you beautiful person.

[@NeoGee]

I think the real prize was getting to hug Betty!

[@Muertes-tf2oj]

I love you Betty. RIP

[@Teladian2]

She had such an amazing mind. .

[@wadesuhr]

RIP Betty White January 17, 1922 - December 31, 2021

[@DNSKansas]

He didn't choose Richard and he won. Beautiful.

[@kristabrewer9363]

THAT part I liked!

[@georgemartin4963]

I miss those types of game shows.

[@allisontaylor1818]

She just glows like an angel

[@nickprice8907]

Anybody getting this in their recommended after Betty White passed away? R.I.P. to a legend among legends!

[@kvbstudios316]

I got it today, January 17, 2022, Betty White’s 100th Birthday. I went to her birthday movie at the theatre today, and sure did cry, and laugh, and enjoy every moment. Especially Betty feeding Bruno the Grizzly Bear marshmallows and getting hugs from him, and her singing along with herself, with a little glance up to her beloved Allen Ludden.

[@mr.robinson1982]

I absolutely love this show. Betty is the bonus.

[@stephenchase7711]

This series has 2,210 episodes over 18 seasons, with a total of 957 hours, and 40 minutes long!!

[@dimitrasamara5084]

Win 5000 dollars + get to hug Betty White, this man was lucky

[@UpintheAir1395]

It's always such a delight to watch Betty White in pretty much anything she's a part of.

[@mig0171]

Thank you for your memories Betty white we’ll all miss you 1922-2021 😢😢

[@VideoAmericanStyle]

Winning $14k was no joke in the mid-70s! Roughly $70-75k today.

[@cynthiashannon3967]

I loved watching this game on late nights Gsn

[@revinhatol]

RIP, Betty White!

[@504ever4]

I'm surprised neither of them said Penny Lane. It's the first thing I thought of today in the year 2022, and the song was only about six years old at that point.

[@alkra4798]

I was thinking Penny Lane as well, but I would have gone with Penny LESS, as in someone who does not have any pennies, i.e poor.

[@KairuHakubi]

@@alkra4798 for some reason all I could think was penny farthing, a type of bicycle that nobody had ridden in like 90 years by this point, and longer now.

[@lisadiconti]

I could only think of Penny Lane.

[@jakepeterson5439]

I thought of Penny Ante, Penny Whistle and Penny Candy right off lol

[@mortimerbrewster3671]

Several great answers in the comments. The only thing I could think of was Penny Dreadful.

[@plushbatfan]

Sadly today, on NYE (New Year’s Eve), Betty White passed away.

[@allisontaylor1818]

You are missed like crazy...RIP Betty

[@ruthecker399]

love love betty

[@joshlyons1975]

If this was the present-day version, "Duct Tape" would be the most popular answer.

[@judygreeley6181]

.

[@rslitman]

@@judygreeley6181 And Watergate tape would have been totally forgotten. On the other hand, both cassette tape and videotape would have been ahead of their time then and possibly outdated now.

[@poetcomic1]

I guess I am old because I remember when duct tape FIRST came out. They had a DUCK on the label!

[@TimThomason]

@@poetcomic1 Duck Tape is still a brand of duct tape that exists today.

[@TheSlipperyNUwUdle]

Tbh sex tape popped in my head first! Maybe I just have a dirty mind. Lmaooo 🤦‍♀️

[@edwardmajka3144]

Marathon Watching 3/6/21 Betty White is the BEST ! Thanks BUZZR for the video...

[@martinrubio748]

Rip betty white one of the best

[@margaretjaggers3537]

I watched this growing up I loved this show

[@ThomasDickensheets]

Betty White will be missed!

[@someguydan]

That drippy plaster back drop behind the contestants at the beginning was just magical.

[@viewfromthehighchair9391]

How many reasons are there to love Betty White? I'm up to about 320 million, give or take.

[@barbarajohnson3781]

Very good episode

[@nightstalkerck]

I love betty white, but part of me wants to cry, as if i lost a love one.

[@RyuHaybausa]

RIP Betty.

[@THEKING_26]

I can’t believe 2 years ago Today WE Lost a Legend And icon and A National Treasure Betty White 😇🕊️🪽❤️ #StayGolden ⭐️

[@WalkaCrookedLine]

I love Betty and religiously watched Match Game when originally broadcast. What bothers me about Match Game is that this was about the closest America ever came to the British panel show concept, which we abandoned but the British perfected.

[@stvp68]

I hope she and Charles Nelson Reilly are having a lovely reunion

[@mortimerbrewster3671]

Don't forget Brett Somers.

[@battlestarnomore]

Rest in Peace.

[@friedbaconsizzles]

RIP Queen

[@JohnsTrainVideos]

According to the internet, that's about $80,000 in 2022 dollars. Not too shabby.

[@michaelwilliamson4280]

Wow 😳 match game '74! I was about 7 or 8 at the time, this is how I came to know Ms. White & some of the people on the show that have passed away, she's reunited with them too.

[@ashleybellofsydney]

In Australia, we call this game show "Blankety Blanks".

[@kristabrewer9363]

How exactly did Betty White have a Record-Breaking moment?

[@hollystiener16]

By helping the guy win

[@stantheman9072]

You would have found out if you’d have actually watched the entire clip.

[@thebrinksf69]

RIP Betty White

[@SocialSaul]

@BUZZR Why don’t you include the broadcast date in the detailed description or title?

[@reidflemingworldstoughestm1394]

Ol Betty got it goin' on

[@LezbeOswald]

$14,400 in 1974 is equivalent to $81,435.07 in 2022. the $5000 Betty helped him win in the final round would be $28,276.06 today. just some perspective :)

[@robertthomas5736]

Betty White Tribute on Buzzer and Metv

[@elliotburing87]

Seriously BADASS

[@paul16451]

Penny Lane would have been my answer, made sense for the time period.

[@patriciajones4761]

Not really Penny Lane was like 7 years before I would have thought Penny Pincher or something like that

[@mikesweeney5619]

that was the first thing I thought of,too!!!!

[@kristabrewer9363]

first thing that crossed my mind was "Penny for your thoughts"

[@bob494949]

Arcade

[@destinyhunter22]

I thought “Penny for your thoughts” or “Penny-wise”. Horror genre ruined me lol

[@LimitlessThinker]

I liked this episode.

[@RazvanMihai88]

was waiting for: Henny Penny, Rose played the role, in a school play. in The Golden Girls's, season 6's last episode.

[@davidwhite533]

My mom was addicted to this game, would listen to it on the radio while picking us up from school. (NB the local CBS affiliate simulcast on 87.9FM --this was before satellite radio, kids). How old is this particular episode? 1) Watergate was a topical reference, 2) five hundred bucks was a LOT of money, 3) "Penny Lane" was still recent enough that it was not an instant cultural reference, and 4) No Charles Nelson Reilly.

[@CocoCrispieeee]

Charles is there, though? He is sitting beside Brett and behind Betty.

[@TheSlipperyNUwUdle]

If this took place in 1973, the prize amount would have been around $3,200.

[@leopold7562]

I’d not heard of this show before, but I live in the UK and we had Blankety Blank, which is basically the same thing. Now I’m wondering which came first…

[@butchs.4239]

Match Game started in the 60's, this particular episode was filmed in 1974. Blankety Blank started in the UK in 1979.

[@leopold7562]

@@butchs.4239 Thanks, I don’t have to wonder any more! Not that I’d have lost any sleep, but I learned something and that is always a good thing

[@Gabriela-nd3im]

I thought of penny saver. Betty White is the best!

[@XXthekingofyouXX]

Awesome!

[@paulcooper8818]

$14,400 then, in today's money is over a billion dollars

[@tourcreole854]

According to the West Egg Inflation Calculator, $14,000 is roughly worth $73.600 in 2019 dollars. Hardly the million dollars given away on many game shows today.

[@paulcooper8818]

@@tourcreole854 The West Egg Inflation Calculator is a dubious source

[@denicesanders4586]

I bought 2 cars and a house for $95.00

[@patriciajones4761]

Dang I bought my first Mustang for $7,000 back in 1969 and it was a 1968 Mustang

[@patriciajones4761]

What he learned is exactly what my first house cost $14,000 3 bedroom 1 bath. It now sells for $250,000

[@flowertrue]

14k. You could but a house for that, although not in California.

[@bob494949]

In 1973, my folks bought our house in San Jose for 26,000. 14k would’ve been a great down payment.

[@MysticWarriorMJ]

Good thing betty had the same idea as the player, I thought Pincher.

[@chris72.]

Was duct tape a bad word back then😄 I was thinking duct tape😄

[@76tennboy]

I would’ve gone with measuring tape

[@daskritterhaus5491]

whats going on w the friggin captions button greyed out?

[@TheSlipperyNUwUdle]

Some videos have captions disabled. 🤷‍♀️

[@adamgregory5274]

What does Penny Ante mean???

[@nicoleguidry5233]

a 1 cent bet

[@pattibrooks1907]

Betty White is a legend a icon and the best comedy lady of comedy besides Lucy Ball Carol Burnette Vickie Lawence and Lily Tomlin those are the best ladies of comedy !

[@STNeish]

I thought VIDEO tape... but it occurs to me it might have been too early for that.

[@HuntersMoon78]

Was Richard Damon Killian on The Running Man?

[@pjcarroll3408]

Yes

[@Gaeadragon]

I don’t know who that is but Richard Dawson starred in the Running Man as a spoof of himself as a game show host!

[@hustledude]

The thumbnail spoiled the answer

[@hdturner1]

14K a show record.

[@kenshirome83]

Dude looks like Columbo

[@mutestingray]

Les was a handsome fella

[@jonnynox5246]

I was thinkin Penny loafers

[@animefan0077]

And now she's gone

[@patprop74]

Fast forward to the 2000's and sex tape would have been the top answer haha or is that just me.

[@conniead5206]

In 1974 he could get a new car with $14,000+. Gosh I am old!

[@mcplutt]

He could get two new cars.

[@josephbowman227]

Janet Finn would break that record with "Russian Roulette."

[@spacemissing]

Beware that "wocka" guitar in the background music.

[@kmn9181]

Wow I thought penny wise 13K was a lot of money back then....

[@Sigyd]

ok but wtf is watergate tape

Looks like David Berkowitz

He's much better looking than David Berkowitz he's actually handsome

Interesting how watergate showed up ...

wow 14,000 dollars was more then most people made in a year

[@ajmittendorf]

Hmm, Les has more!

[@critic2029]

That’s $80 grand in 2021 $$

[@Bobalicious]

True. Elephants can't hop.

I would've said penny pincher

[@migueldelmazo5244]

Simpler times... "Sex tape" wasn't even on the radar.

[@tonycevallos7513]

Joe Flynn wasn't looking very healthy in this show. He died this same year after drowning during a heart attack at his home.

[@thekrazyhatter5063]

Her entire life was an amazing game show she met her husband she made herself iconic and she Became 🤍 *BETTY WHITE* 🤍 through password she became the golden girl through her charms and was inspiring to the point that everyone who lives should be like her compassionate and just an wholesome person RIP queen you will be laid to rest with your crown as the greatest woman who ever lived Heres your crown 👑

[@kashgarinn]

What the hell is red tape?

[@fluidstatic5564]

It's a phrase referring to an annoying legal obstacle involving paperwork, like "there's a lot of red tape between now and finally getting the deed for this house."
