Match Game 75 (Episode 464) ("Fannie's Popeye Shirt") (With Fee Plugs)

Today's Panel: John Forsythe, Brett Somers, Gary Burghoff, Elaine Joyce, Richard Dawson, and Fannie Flagg

[@todddepue681]

The reading of every question gets an immediate cut to Elaine's wide eyed reaction

[@lesburns7395]

absolute idiot, also cant stand the lip licking thing

[@todddepue681]

@@lesburns7395 it was an obvious act she eventually dropped. In the show's later years she doesn't behave this way at all.

[@aracelyguerrero360]

First thing I said. Oh great Elaine and her weird mouth licking is back lol

[@richardwhite5633]

The y need to get Charles Neilson Reilly back to permanently replace the high school actor on Brett’s left side as known as Gary

[@MensAsses33]

I like looking at the contestants...their hairstyles, clothes, personalities, etc.

[@pencils812]

How old were you in the mid 70s?

[@donaldleroy6502]

Speaking of hairstyles, Ron's almost looks like a toupee, absolutely awful

[@pencils812]

@@donaldleroy6502 I wonder if the contestants had access to hair and makeup people.

[@donaldleroy6502]

@@pencils812 I think that would be fair but as you know only the"STARS" get the Royal treatment, it would be cool to find out though

@@donaldleroy6502 on PM episode 152, Patty D has a new hairstyle. I wonder if that was her choice.

Fannie has got the most lavish awesome designer sweaters.

I understand Fannie got most of them from fans who sent them to her.

[@kristabrewer6736]

I know, she must be Rich

Love Fannie's shirt❤❤❤

By the way, can't wait for the return of CNR!

John Forsythe 🥰❤❤❤ And very distinguished, sexy voice. 😍

[@m.e.d.7997]

This show aged well.

[@kristabrewer6736]

BETTER without saint Richard

[@m.e.d.7997]

@@kristabrewer6736 That is not what I meant. The original year's aged we'll into the future. The Richard ones. Show pretty much sucked after he left

[@edwardlozano8807]

It looks that John Forsythe was expecting a lot of BS with his shovel answer...

[@pencils812]

It was a good answer.

[@prodigaljess]

Ann! Another pretty lady in a cute outfit. Those slender 70s ladies had STYLE!

[@brianb.5473]

The country as a whole was more slender. Back when going out for food was a once or twice a month treat. Not a every day occurrence.

[@m.e.d.7997]

"fly" is hysterical. And right in tune with this show. Edgy.

[@XMLarry]

He does wash his hands but he dries them on his nurse

[@m.e.d.7997]

I thought secretary but nurse is good too!

[@caseyyarnold2959]

I'll say it again - Brett either is partially deaf or pretends to be so the camera will focus on her when she says she needs question repeated. Jeez!

[@mj6962]

Well at least with Brett I believe she genuinely could not hear all of the question. Unlike Gary, who always makes Gene repeat the question only for his lame attempt for a laugh with his answer.

[@mj6962]

I think Brett was honestly a little hard of hearing. Plus, being at that back row might have made it more difficult to hear too.

[@deanstrand4260]

I think Brett had ADD or ADHD. She couldn't focus long enough to hear the question.

[@LynxSouth]

@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 I could be wrong, but I don't think Dean S. is being nasty; I think he's suggesting a medical reason for why Brett needed to have the questions repeated. It's a pretty good suggestion, as that could well be the reason she drank, trying to self-medicate.

[@lesburns7395]

@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 like Brett

[@mj6962]

If Gary had just not tried to be funny all the time, he might have come off as endearing and/or cute. But he ruined it by always trying too hard to be funny and to steal the spotlight.

[@aracelyguerrero360]

True. But he was funny sometimes .

[@kristabrewer6736]

Don't START!! Gary's been fine these past couple of months and you KNOW it!

[@tonystone1016]

​@@kristabrewer6736Gary didn't fit in. The harder he tried the less likeable he became. He joins the list of my least favorite MG celebs.

[@steveyounker7897]

How did that guy ever manage to win over $8000 dollars with answers like that?

[@kellykonoske91]

Loved Fannie so much! Gary...meh

[@richardwhite5633]

One more thing to add I hope. Brett needs her ears checked to see if she needs hearing aids and she always takes two to three minutes to explain what she wrote down instead of just turning the card around right then and there. Thank you for your time.

[@deanstrand4260]

19:07 The look on Elaine's face was priceless.

[@lesburns7395]

on every damn question

[@pencils812]

She always did that knowing they'd have the camera on her.

[@sharondaniels5912]

Brett even running her mouth while Gene is talking to the contestant. If she can't see or hear, why the hell was she on the show? She wasn't funny or famous, so I guess they were doing Jack Klugman a favor😩

I have been watching the old classics of Family Feud on Buzzer and Richard is so much more ....quiet than he is on here. Does anyone know why?

[@dorothycoker8830]

I don't understand why people don't like Gary.

[@ShortyGirl63]

Dorothy Coker Yes, thank you! I hate to put a damper on the fun and I know I’ll catch all kinds of flack, but I just had the thought...Gary Burghoff is still alive and what if he were to look at these comments for fun? How truly horrible he would feel if, knowing he can’t change the past, he read all the terribly unkind thoughts people felt compelled to share in the episodes he is in. Seriously, how many of you all have made an ass of yourself and regretted it? Guess I’m feeling introspective today. Peace.

[@storylass9071]

you7 must have missed earlier shows when Gary would overrun Gene's entrance by aping around him, chasing him around the studio and the worse, dumping a trash bin of garbage on the stage. He was just an ass and deserves the dislike he earned.

[@shoeshooey5464]

@@storylass9071 agreed!!

[@rockaway2k]

Go back and watch all the episodes when Gary overrode Gene’s entrances and blurted out unfunny answers trying to fit in - and woefully failing at it. At times, he acted like a child starving for attention. It was ridiculous. BUT, if and when Gary did have a good or clever answer, I did give him credit. Apparently, the staff dropped him a memo to tone down the showboating antics,because even Gene was getting tired of his ways.

[@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687]

He's not funny and tries too hard.

[@marinerman]

If you look really closely at the heart-shaped glasses with eyes Gary has on his card in the intro, from a distance, they look like the heart design from the Kingdom Hearts franchise. Umm, did Nomura enlist Gary Burghoff to design the symbol for him??? O_O

[@m.e.d.7997]

Gary was a pretty good player actually.

[@pencils812]

Sometimes.

[@OkMaRcOs11]

i highly doubt he would care if he read these now :D . but in the last few episodes hes zimmered down a little . but he was just trying too hard . at first it was funny but then it got too a point where he couldnt let anyone say anything with out him saying something afterwards or intervening . you can tell brett and richard were over him a long time ago. i think hes funny (sometimes) he just needed to learn when to say jokes and for how long

[@MooncricketsInc]

Why would a dude in his 70s/80s be browsing random strangers comments on youtube ? He might've been annoying and trying hard, but we've all been like that probably. He should be enjoying his golden years as much as he can with his friends and family .

[@pencils812]

Yes.

[@donaldleroy6502]

Ann was very young on this show I'll bet she still looks great. I just now heard gene use her last name, Annchilada, very tasty indeed

[@pencils812]

Surprised that Gene didn't comment on the big wig of that dark haired contestant.
