Match Game 73 (Episode 117) (Vampire and Bat Match?)

[@shirleykamm7819]

Sad, there weren't more replies!! I Loved Match Game as a kid!!

[@aia1229]

CNR is just a precious man.

[@UberLummox]

Nor the panel.

[@ts.elliot5870]

Love Charles, he made the show extraordinary for me. I wonder if he ever found long term love?

[@kentetalman9008]

@@ts.elliot5870 Yes, he had a long-term partner.

[@randomvintagefilm273]

Hardly lol. They were all drunk by the time filming started

[@CinemaDemocratica]

The set never looked this good again. :D

[@jamesage24]

And nothing malfunctioned!

[@Echognomics101]

I thought the set was pretty consistent until they added the big gaudy wheel.

[@Driven2Beers]

The contestants are Karen Black and Count Chocula!

[@DizzLexic]

BAHAHAHA!!! :D

[@bobby6900]

Judy should have been discovered like Tom selleck on the dating game. Absolutely stunning looking woman.

[@RuinedRune]

You should see Gary Walls on the very early episodes.

[@idlertire]

She looks like actress Lesley Ann Warren.

[@xrayban2]

@@idlertire or Lana del Rey

[@beckydutra6543]

I had an employee who looks almost like her and actually prettier, if you can believe that. Every man that came in the store could not take their eyes off her and she was so sweet. I loved her. 😍

Bell Bottom Pants For Gene. What A Guy!!!! He Is So Suave (COOL)

[@randydellinger2996]

There’s Gene’s favorite tie again.

[@dimitriberozny3729]

Second episode where Gene has his signature microphone!!

[@ts.elliot5870]

Correct me if I'm wrong but Gene never made the Best Dressed List did he? Missed it by this much!

[@Doug41160]

10:10 "what is it, over? I want my sweater back!"

[@Doug41160]

10:11 "what is it, over?"

[@maryspencer4975]

10:35 "Come crawling back.." He's the wittiest panelist of all.

[@npxmnpxm]

"Fan" is a good answer!

[@stevesilva1425]

Man was the best answer

[@davidshowmaker4408]

Brett always has to be the center of attention!

[@scorpionqueen7620]

EVERYBODY that’s on tv wants to be center of attention that’s why they’re on there lol

[@dmnemaine]

Brett was doing a character. She was purposely "the one everybody loves to hate".

[@ts.elliot5870]

​@@dmnemaineIt gets tiresome. She's not got at being a "star". She would've been much better as an extra. Fannie would've been much better as a full timer IMHO.

[@crissrudd4554]

There was another incident like this in ‘75 or ‘76 where they matched ‘vampire’ and ‘bat’. Make up your mind Ira!!

[@joetrolo7076]

At first I thought it seemed weird but then I was surprised they rescinded it because vampires become bats. So technically she was right

[@dmnemaine]

@@joetrolo7076 They can shape change into the form of a bat. Whether or not that form actually is a bat is a matter of debate.

[@sharondaniels5912]

Nobody on the panel commented on how Lee and the contestant looked so much alike 😮

[@bribabytt]

The definition that was read from the dictionary would seem to support counting it as a match, rather than versa vice-a.

[@vanillacreem816]

The nice looking brunette contestent looks like she could be Lee Meriweather’s sister.

[@shirleykamm7819]

I said nested, like Richard

WOW! I really thought "man" would have been the obvious clue for Sheila screaming when she backed into him Sometimes theses panelists don't have a CLUE how to play this game!

Smoking, is this the first episode when Charles is smoking?

[@davidshowmaker4408]

Brett had a lot of trouble understanding the questions!

[@dmnemaine]

Brett was playing a role as the panelist that everybody loves to hate. She did it beautifully.

Alcohol makes comprehension difficult, trust me I know.

[@maynardsmoreland]

"Bellhop" matching "Man" could also be questionable. A bellhop can be a woman.

[@joetrolo7076]

Unlikely it would be a woman in 1973. But in any case Lee Meriwether is a moron

[@ladykay6682]

Back then it was usually a man

[@stevesilva1425]

Yes, usually they dont match general with specific

[@donaldleroy6502]

It may not be a match but I would say grandpa was so old that he needed a bellows

[@l.a.gothro3999]

Yes, bats are not the same as vampires. Integrity wins!

[@Echognomics101]

The common myth is that vampires can shapeshift into bats at will (see Grampa Munster), and perhaps even so far that all bats are shapeshifted vampires. But that is admittedly a huge stretch of imagination or interpretation.

[@gaamatsu4dewin]

Sleeping with a teddy bear is the best! :) I do it every night.

[@ts.elliot5870]

I wouldn't tell very many people that. LoL

[@rockaway2k]

As I looked at Judy, to me she seems to have eyes like Lee.

[@sharondaniels5912]

Hope Brett's kids didn't look like her or Jack 😅

[@MatchGameProductions]

david shepard she was only on for a week!

[@robertgarrison5478]

Wasn't that bad

[@dmnemaine]

Matching vampire with bat was just wrong. Not the same thing at all. At least they fixed it.

[@Echognomics101]

A vampire can be a bat (and some bats are "Vampire Bats"), but it is a huge stretch to say the answers are one and the same.

[@TheEarthCreature]

They were talking about a baseball bat anyways.

[@kathycobb4451]

Judy looks a lot like Lesley Ann Warren

[@GarretGrayCamera]

'73 had to be the worst year ever for fashion. How did it ever come to that?

[@ts.elliot5870]

68 to 73 weren't anything to write home about. The whole psychedelic, tie-die, hippy drippy look was in.

Burt Convey: Began the audience response: "How ___ was s/he?"

[@Echognomics101]

Yeah, he'd done it quietly by himself for several appearances, and it caught on. Fun to know, I always associated Match Game with that phrase, but didn't know why they did it.
