Match Game 74 (Episode 351) (Gene Gets Aroused) (Falls Down!)

[@markmarkofkane8167]

Memories. I used to watch this with my mom. I was 11. But we started watching with Match Game '73. Betty White looked great.

[@deanstrand4260]

Memories indeed. I used to watch this with my Grandma all those years ago. I think she had a secret crush on Richard Dawson, but wouldn't admit it.

[@mlchc9004]

Betty’s answer “ magic tricks” was the one best response

[@mj6962]

I, also, love that orange! The first TV station I ever worked for had opened in 1982. So it was decorated with a lot of orange. And when I started in 1993, it had never been updated. Even the cubicle partitions were carpeted and orange! Ahhh the good old days!

[@edwardlozano8807]

Brett: "It's too bad that her brain isn't the size of her blanks"....actually though after she finished her acting career, Louisa actually got her law degree, was on the Dean's list but also won the American Jurisprudence Bancroft Whitney Prize for Contracts...

[@dianefarley37]

She should have acted as if she had something in her head, then. She really gets on my nerves here.

I wish she would have said to Brett: "You wish your blanks were the size of my BLANKS!!"

[@windsorkid7069]

Louisa was in the movie "One Flew over the Cuckoo's nest" , small part but cute.

[@Floymin]

Wasn't the rest of her career in what would have been considered X-rated material in 1974?

[@bethdibartolomeo2042]

Sadly she passed away a little over six months after this video was uploaded (1/4/19). I also know her from a guest appearance in MASH (season three's Bombed as the Spanish nurse).

[@mlchc9004]

I like her

[@markkonzerowsky8871]

More proof that the 1970s were the pinnacle of Western fashion! The bigger the hair, the closer to God!

I wouldn't be surprised if Juanita was a televangelist for Jesus!

Wow, between Marthamarie, Juanita, and Michael Landon there wasn't much hair left around for the 80's!

Poor Helen. Maybe she would have done better if her grand daughter's name was Beth, or Betty, or Belinda, or something.

[@johnstewart9768]

Hot Damn !! Can you IMAGINE the neck muscles it must have taken to support ALL THAT HAIR ??!!?? btw, unless I'm seriously mistaken, Louisa Moritz was an attorney !!

[@donaldleroy6502]

Right on both counts, that is one awesome head of hair

[@donnamorrison4837]

A disbarred attorney !!!

[@donnamorrison4837]

Louisa was also disbarred !!

[@loissimmons109]

We never hear the condensed version of the story of Helen's life. Either it was edited out of the original broadcast, or it was edited out at some later date for whatever reason. Apparently they didn't feel that they could just bleep out a short segment. I like hearing those brief bios, and I missed hearing this one. Helen happened to be one of the older contestants, so I can imagine her bio might have been especially interesting.

[@lcfflc3887]

i noticed that too, i wonder what happened.

[@patcrites5274]

I think Gene just forgot that"s all

[@meyerj75]

No wonder it was less than 21 minutes long!😐

[@kitarofan87]

Was Helen’s life story edited out of the broadcast?

[@thehouseof5gables388]

Orson Bean died yesterday after being hit by 2 cars while he was crossing the street in Los Angeles. He was 91 years old.

[@mj6962]

What a horrible and tragic accident. RIP Orson.

[@pencils812]

😓

[@kevansf]

I've really grown to love Orson from his appearances here on MG, and I'm glad to see him filling in for Gary who is filling in for the irreplaceable CNR. Orson was funny and weird and delightful and entertaining.

[@meyerj75]

I heard about that one. It's such a tragedy that he didn't live life to the fullest even though he was at the time 91 and already enjoyed life as it is. That and Betty White just days before her 100th birthday that never was.

[@ts.elliot5870]

I didn't realize that Orson Bean appeared 200 times on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. RIP

Is that a bikini top louisa is wearing I am surprised that let her on the air like that

[@deanstrand4260]

Why? There wasn't anything obscene showing, just skin. Had there been, the censors would have prevented it from airing.

[@LynxSouth]

No, it's a halter top. Most women only wore them in the summer, though. It's part of her dumb blonde cheesecake persona. I think it's a bit much for an afternoon game show, but it's no more revealing than the tops of a lot of evening gowns.

[@kristabrewer6736]

Louisa dressed like that on purpose. She knows what kind of person Gene is and yet she STILL chose to dressed like that. WOW!
