Match Game 75 (Episode 546) (BLANK Dive?)

[@MikeSebastianVideos]

Charles Nelson Reilly's " Chuck" persona is too funny.

H/H match update: ... Here's our panel for the show's 110th week, which aired September 15-19, 1975: Our beloved regulars Charles, Richard, and Brett are joined by familiar faces Avery Schreiber and Joyce Bulifant. Avery is making his fifth week of appearances (of 14 weeks total). He hasn't been selected for a H/H match yet. Semi-regular Joyce (26 weeks total) is currently near the top of the leader board with a 75% accuracy (3 out of 4) when it comes to matching contestants for the big money. Rounding out the panel is Lana Wood. This is her one and only week on the program. I'd love to see Joyce get another shot and/or Avery have a chance to play the H/H match this week... ... but no one's getting chosen today, as the brand-new champion struck out on the audience match board. She should've taken Charles's answer for $500 or even Brett's for $100... Stay tuned! (Trivia note: today Brett uses the expression "definitive answer" @ ~ 19:30. I remember hearing this expression on MG a lot when I watched it as a kid, and as I've been watching all the episodes in order, I was wondering when I would hear it again. This is the first time.) Meanwhile, here's the current leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: Orson Bean - 100% (4 wins in 4 attempts). Gary Burghoff - 83.3% (5 wins in 6 attempts). TIE: Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). Fannie - 50% (9 wins in 18 attempts). Betty - 48.4% (15 wins in 31 attempts). Charles - 45.2% (19 wins in 42 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 38.6% (115 wins in 298 attempts). Brett - 38.3% (18 wins in 47 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 546, excluding the lost/missing episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325. (As per MatchGameProductions, these episodes "are nowhere to be found and also aren't in the Goodson/Todman Library. Sadly, looks like they are lost forever!")

My oh my, what a lovely lass Lauren!

[@rgazsy8366]

While I believe Joyce was very pretty, her profile at around 11:05 was gorgeous.

[@chrischeshire6528]

And still is, she will be 82 in December.

[@Yowza78]

Good call!

[@ronaldwalton1524]

Lana Wood was Natalie Wood's sister and she was in the Movie Diamonds Are Forever .

[@SuperC888]

Can’t hold a candle to Natalie

[@Yowza78]

She's still alive, though!

[@Doug41160]

Lauren is a total doll !

[@patrickargabright3490]

You got that right! There's a very lucky man out there somewhere.

[@lifewithemilysyndromelivin9956]

Looks like Lana missed the memo about wearing blue lol

[@mittens4kittens435]

I like how Peggy says she does needlepoint and Gene doesn't say anything and just asks about the commercial. Usually when contestants say they do needlepoint he's all over it.

[@garfield2439]

I think he was still in shock over the answer not being nose 👃 dive,he wasn't with it

[@mittens4kittens435]

@@garfield2439 I think it might also have something to do with the fact that Peggy isn't young or blonde lol.

[@XMLarry]

The circus lion said, "Today I'm going to give that lion tamer a big surprise. When he puts his head in my mouth I'm going to sneeze."

[@ShortyGirl63]

XMLarry I’m going to barf.

[@pencils812]

Joyce is wearing pajamas. Gene has an interesting suit on.

[@sjinzaar]

Peggy reminds me of Kate McKinnon from SNL-fame.

[@arthuridis]

Loved Avery's reaction to the boobs answer.

[@BNatoAk]

Alot of kissing?? Richard's like "you haven't kissed 1 contestant? " 🤣

[@davidshepard3485]

Lauren is beautiful.

[@Doug41160]

wonder whatever happened to her? Lauren is exy!

[@genkatqltr737]

Gene's suit is really gaudy. HOW GAUDY IS IT! It's sooo gaudy, the red pattern vibrates on the screen. 😎

[@LynxSouth]

It's not the suit, it's the cameras. I remember reading that there were certain patterns (narrow stripes, checks, houndstooth, etc.) that "confused" the cameras for a couple of technical reasons that I've forgotten, as well as certain fabrics or fabric finishes that caused glare and some other stuff. I always rather liked the shimmers and blurs and twinkles. Now with the high def cameras and TVs, we can see every wart and wrinkle much more clearly than in real life. Whoopee.

[@pencils812]

He was really looking for variety.

[@ts.elliot5870]

Gene would've made an excellent used car salesman in that suit.

[@kellykonoske91]

Lauren was hot! Holy Moly

[@ShortyGirl63]

Kelly Konoske She reminds me of Debra Winger.

[@krkf8]

Joyce must have changed her makeup, she looks very nice.

[@timothycarpenter9552]

Congratulations Gene, you figured that 2+2 equals 4.

[@garfield2439]

I'm shocked 😳 it wasn't nose 👃 dive

[@pencils812]

Gene was in total shock.

[@XMLarry]

Surprised no one said "trench coat" for the last one

[@sarahkinsey5434]

Trench Hand!

[@LynxSouth]

Trench coats were/are generally used as raincoats.

[@pencils812]

What about trench hands!

[@SuperC888]

1:13 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@sallykohorst8803]

Another cute show and lana wood is Natalie wooda sister.

[@kristabrewer6736]

I was sooooooo THRILLED that saint Richard gave the very first answer in the super match and it wasn't even UP there YAAAAAAAY

[@SuperC888]

2:20 mother

[@wattsjetton3027]

Panelists: 1. Avery Schreiber 2. Brett Somers 3. Charles Nelson Reilly 4. Lana Wood 5. Richard Dawson 6. Joyce Bulifant

[@randydellinger2996]

Another thrift shop suit for Gene.

[@preyzcruz]

Gene's reaction to the ___dive super match priceless

[@arthuridis]

Thinking of Muff...

[@LynxSouth]

Geez, that Deidre or whoever it is who's on the bells & buzzers is giving me a headache! When someone wins, she rings that thing for ages. I've lowered my volume, but I think Match Game really turned theirs up. The sound effects are still too much louder than the level of their voices.

[@jacobestevez7570]

... Lana Wood ... ugh ...

[@PRScustom]

Gene Rayburn is annoying when he does bad impersonations
