[@daviddriver2692]

Anyone that does NOT love C.N.R,Gene,Richard etc has serious problems....these guys are deeply missed 😔

[@gordonowens7794]

Great show! Match Game, Dating Game, Newlywed Game and The Gong Show the 70's were so much fun!

[@paulastenavage3348]

@ Gordon Owens I enjoyed when Jim Lange had the contestants turn around ( and his self) to blow a kiss to the audience

[@felicefiore6783]

RIP dear Richard we miss you so🍁💕💕

[@alexandraashland2981]

I miss them all. I love this show.

[@paulapayne7940]

Nice one Richard Dawson always makes me smile.

[@jacobestevez7570]

classic 1970's television - I remember this show during my childhood

[@beckydutra6543]

This was such good, funny entertainment. Love it!

[@pencils812]

Did you ever see this? Betty says they once used some naughty words on this show at 2:50. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHa9nHakibB6jZY

[@crissrudd4554]

Long live Newkirk! RIP Richard Dawson

[@MikeSebastianVideos]

Sometimes Marcia Wallace's expressions remind me of the "Beaker" character on the Muppets. She was so talented, I miss her.

[@duranduranfan5603]

Mike Sebastian 😹😹😹😹

[@darrelguilbeau7557]

I saw her once at CVS Pharmacy in Los Angeles & the LA Times Book Fair not long before she passed away.

[@evalu3260]

May she Rest In Peace.

[@maryhlad5277]

I remember Johnny Brown from GOOD TIMES. He played Nathan Bookman, the superintendent of the apartment building where the Evans family lived. J.J. & Michael called him Buffalo Butt, & their neighbor, Wilona, called him Booger.

[@nunosoares2329]

RIP Gene Rayburn, Richard Dawson and any celebrity from the Match Game who is no longer with us :-(

[@maryhlad5277]

Charles Nelson Reilly :-(

[@kentlewis987]

Brett Somers, Jack Klugman, Allen Luden, etc.

[@felicefiore6783]

They were the best, thanks so muh for these rpisodes💕💕

[@gericummings6122]

Fanny Flagg is the only one left. And Joyce Bilifant.

[@jennymk01]

I'd be so bad at this. 😭 I was so far off. I literally thought "I don't know, no lips?" To the kissing bandit one. 😂😭 Imagine coming out with that answer. I'm laughing so hard just thinking of it.

[@lawrencetate145]

At this time, Hit the Road, was still a conscious song element. And, McHale's Navy may be the best response in Match Game history.

[@Doug41160]

16:01 Charles, the kissing bandit 8:58 "Here dear, hold this awhile while you're in the water"

[@pencils812]

That anchor joke was funny.

[@TruckTaxiMoveIt]

I know it's rare but whenever it happens I'm overjoyed -- when the contestants have perfect answers and the stars are in accord, it just makes for a more fun game.

[@poetcomic1]

Things that used to annoy me become endearing - like Brett's I GOT IT every time she comes up with an answer.

[@edwardlozano8807]

Newkirk, Sydney Greenstreet, a come from behind (twice!), a kissing bandit... definitely a full episode!

[@randydellinger2996]

What a voice- Judy can whisper in my ear any time she wants.

[@MichaelSimmons.]

Trish Stewart is a cutie.

[@Observer-jw8wv]

At 18:16, Gene says "I think I do a better Newkirk than he does." Gene, I am so sorry, but your British accent is atrocious. Love the repartee between Charles and Richard -- they did that more than once on MG.

[@felicefiore6783]

Richard was so 😘😚😙

[@1313Bahl]

I love watching , this is my favorite game show but I love watching from way back then it reminds me how even women that aren't absolutely beautiful we're able to become Stars famous rich on TV.

[@caseyyarnold2959]

At first, I thought Johnny meant a LifeSaver candy.

[@garfield2439]

Newkirk 💋💋😘😘👏👏. No Gene u didn't do Newkirk better

[@gladfan1989]

20:27 - Guess who won't be invited back anytime soon.

[@davidganderson870]

Yay Marcia! She did really well this episode! wife, bible (I blanked), anchor, halitosis, road, tree, Howard Cosell

[@georgemaster689]

If MG weren't airing in syndication, would CBS have taken the show back to its network glory?

[@steveyounker7897]

They tried, a couple of times, once with Bert Convey as host, and most recently with Alec Baldwin, which the Game Show Network is about to rerun. But it's just not the same. You couldn't do this show today, or at least not make it funny. It's definitely not Woke.

[@wmkyle1]

14:48 " Slide it Earl " The timing was off a bit between Gene and Earl.

[@rhyancoleman6462]

4 in a row for Marcia!!!!!!!

[@grigorb.5221]

[@Rasputin443556]

How was Marcia the only one who got the best answer at 20:26?

[@markjamesmeli2520]

I love BUZZR!!!

[@radsdad1]

14:37 Richard was going for the smooch, but got the cheek.

[@kristabrewer6736]

AWESOME!

[@vXAudioOutlawXv]

Anyone know a modern day Trish? Wow

[@Floymin]

The last question for this episode was incredibly meta.

Floymin Match Game ‘76

[@ifiwereamatchgamepanelist6779]

Owens-Ross, round 2, question A: (lay out; see previous episode) Question B: "Since Catholic missionaries don't typically have wives, I went with his OLD SCHOOL RIVAL." (Bzzt!) Tie-breaker (let's assume I was in Charles's seat), question B: "I wanted to do something about attracting sharks - but I couldn't think of anything clever, so I just said ANCHOR." (Ding!) Question A: "A little more serious: LEPROSY." (Bzzt!) (then presumably another tie-breaker, and so on to the...) Super Match, part 1: HAY Part 2: TREE Owens-Popejoy, round 1, question A: "The true German TV ordeal: WAGNERIAN OPERA ON PBS." (Bzzt!)

[@ShortyGirl63]

I wonder what the audience would have said to the last question...I would have said cartoons.

[@carrierosche9381]

I love Marshas suit. Very retro!

[@zxccxz164]

judy judy judy - hottest contestant ever....perfect easy answers but loses

[@quadrupleh4226]

my answers : wife, wife, bomb, herpes, jackpot, tree, match game,

[@pencils812]

Wow Marcia, that collar.

[@sharcrum]

Back when Richard really enjoyed his place in the show, it showed. The whole show was better when Richard had real fun and wasnt caught up in being the best and biggest star of the show and letting it go to his head.

[@kristabrewer6736]

HAHAHAHAHA the contestant went to give Charles a hug and he pushed her away oh, and 4 in a row for Machia. WOOOOW!

Just found out that Johnny Brown's daughters name is Sharon Catherine Blanks! Quite fitting I thinks!

[@dannyboyy8465]

Brown's daughter played the girl in the wheelchair in the Good Times episode "Breaker, Breaker". kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpa6pJh6n9-dbM0

[@donaldleroy6502]

This is indeed a rarity, two questions in a row with obvious answers, can't help but think Johnny sandbagged Judy on purpose

[@Kayleighpj2992]

BRETT SOMERS LOVE YOU

[@pencils812]

Charles and his anchor joke with her was hilarious.

[@jacquelinellewellyn5010]

Good morning

[@jett2605]

how can anyone stand to sit next to Brett? omg, she's annoying. does she ever shut up?

[@johnstewart6366]

As punishment, the Germans made us watch - "reruns of Gilligan's Island". (worse torture ever)

[@donaldleroy6502]

I completely agree, isn't it strange how some of the dumbest shows seem to last forever?

[@ckohne]

United States is just one of 35 countries in America

[@gogoma9522]

Why does Gene ALWAYS refer to the black men (contestants and panelists) as "boys"? What's with this racist patronizing "atta boy crap?

[@pencils812]

He says it to the white males too. I've heard it. Rude and condescending nonetheless.

[@kristabrewer6736]

here we go again

[@nadja1618]

I've noticed that too, cringeworthy. Sure, he says it occasionally to white guys, but disproportionately and shamefully often to black guys.

[@Unknown-Channel280]

5:31 Johnny Brown laughed like Krusty the Clown from the Simpsons
