Gawd, I miss the 70s. THANKS for posting.

Got that right

Classic cartoon character Scooby-Doo, who started his long run on CBS in 1969!!!

[@deanstrand4260]

That was my favorite cartoon! I watched it every time I possibly could. Shaggy and Scooby were hilarious, but every once in a while, they solved a case.

Every day Avery combs his hair with a fork and an electrical outlet.

H/H match update: ... Today's action: Our champion pulls of a third victory thanks to that classic Match Game answer "tinkler." Today's audience match question: "________ Doo" (Notice the bathroom theme they've got going there?) The celebs: Fannie (zippity doo), Richard (voo-), and Jo Ann (doo) The choice: Voo- The answers: Dippity, Voo-, Scooby (Note: "Dippity-Do" hair styling products are spelled with just one "o", but as Gene often says, spelling doesn't count, and the audience match answers often disregard spelling, even with people's names.) Well, add another $250 to our champion's haul. Now I'm wondering who she'll pick for the head-to-head match. After two non-matches, it seems she doesn't have the "ESP thing" going with Richard. I think she might be better off with Jo Ann or Fannie, but I expect she'll choose him again. Yup. She says (sarcastically?) "I've done so well with Richard..." This is now Richard's 18th consecutive go at the H/H match... Today's H/H question: "Milk and _______" Wow. No definitive answer springs to mind. Milk and eggs? I don't like it. Milk and honey? Hmm. The poor contestant looks numb, possibly resolved to the fact that she's never going to hit a H/H match. Richard does a quick face scratch and side glance toward Fannie, and writes an answer at least five letters long. The contestant seems to have come up with a good answer while Richard was writing. "Cookies," she says with determination. That does sound like a great answer! Maybe they'll pull off a match after all! The audience seems to approve (although they also shout out milk and honey). Richard's expression is uncharacteristically negative (usually he's totally unreadable). Is he merely acting to heighten the drama, or is he genuinely disheartened? Richard has it! Cookies! They finally match! Richard scores his 157th H/H match. Here's the updated 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 - 52.6% (10 wins in 19 attempts). Betty - 50% (17 wins in 34 attempts). Charles - 47.7% (21 wins in 44 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 41.0% (157 wins in 383 attempts). Brett - 38.5% (20 wins in 52 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 662, excluding the lost/missing/damaged episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325, and 645. (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!")

I was eating breakfast when Brett revoltingly brought up Encino for the thousandth time and just the thought of it made me nearly throw up. Could you imagine waking up in the morning next to her and then she opens that lipless hole and says with that woodpecker voice, "Was it good for you sweetheart?" as she lights up the worst smelling cigarette ever?

[@arthuridis]

Haa haa haa haa haa. Encino lot lizard.

[@beckydutra6543]

I would pick Charles every time, (and Brett 😊) and Charles always for the supermatch. ❤

[@aracelyguerrero360]

Me too. I would totally pick Brett or Charles. They're good too.

[@kristabrewer6736]

Charles is good, and I would DEFIINITELY pick him over Saint Richard, but Brett's the only one I know who seems GENUINE when she hugs the contestant

[@lynskyrd78]

Perpare to lose

[@beckydutra6543]

@@lynskyrd78 do you watch the show?? Charles has helped contestants to win many times, as well as Brett. And Richard also, but he has also not matched.

[@lynskyrd78]

@@beckydutra6543 Yes I watch the show, Brett and Charles just try to be funny trying to get laughs, Richard is more serious professional player, usually get the right anwser. This why they came up with the wheel. Everybody picked Richard cause they want to win.

Surprised nobody said sheep.

For once, Brett didn't have to have it repeated!!! Wow!

[@kimandrews7186]

It’s so funny the way Brett tries to get Gene to ask about the question then Charles steals Richards answer!!

[@jessechristian8665]

Brett is deaf, dumb and blind. Not to mention a broom riding nasty old witch.

Bicentennial Peanut Butter Log? Hard pass lol.

Greg & Avery must have the same hair stylist 😮

[@artielon]

Blow his: cover, own trumpet, chances... I matched Richard 's "brains out ".

[@EVzipper48]

Yikes, old Greg from Frisco could definitely make change for a 3 dollar bill, if you get my drift....

[@jamesr1703]

Tim, are you speaking from experience?

[@JAWrightonline]

@@jamesr1703 Given the context, Greg's look and mannerisms, and your disdainful response, I take it that was a gay joke that offended you, courtesy of Tiny Tim.

Frisco? That’s a town in Texas!

@R oh people grow up - ya'all sound like third graders!

[@danareynolds1786]

I can see Julie in platform shoes, high-waisted bell-bottom jeans, a barely-buttoned silk blouse, and "Farrah hair". No? 😉 And I quickly came up with "Scooby" Doo, "Doo" Doo, and "Dippity" Doo. Posted before results shown. 🤔🤔🤔

[@sdlively27]

ROFL!! Going to be another good episode I can see already. ;0) Seems like MG73/74 again.. ;0)

[@nowandaround312]

This episode and the prior one are a good example of the huge flaw in this game that has always bothered me. The winning contest here had the potential to match 6 out of 6 on both her questions, and they were the easier questions too. The other contestant had the potential to match a maximum of 2 on each of hers. It was basically impossible for her to win unless the other person really fucked up.

[@Ladywolf-du9lw]

Privacy Lover but the new contestant has the choice of questions so it could have went either way

[@nowandaround312]

Mary Slobodnik Exactly, it's complete luck, but they make it seem like it's based on the contestant's skill

[@MichaelSimmons.]

Privacy Match Game has nothing to do with skill, it's all luck. You hope you get the easier question, and you hope you're thinking the same way, as 6 other people. Like all games of chance, it's mostly the luck of the draw.

[@nowandaround312]

Venom101002 I know how the game works, I'm saying that they shouldn't act like winning is based on skill when it's actually luck

[@nunosoares2329]

The flaw in the game is the panel (no disrespect to the deceased) because they weren't the sharpest tool in the shed sorry to say.

[@maynardsmoreland]

Richard loves that blue & white aspirin shirt, he's worn it a lot!

[@blitzburghbilly7813]

ALONG WITH THE (BROWN 1) THAT HE ACTUALLY WORE THE FRIG OUT. 🤦🏻‍♂️ ........

[@ShortyGirl63]

And his flaming red blazer which was sexy, imo.

[@pencils812]

I thought those were baseballs on the shirt. He often wore it with a tennis racket sweater.

A "beater" is the part of the blender that rotates.

[@LynxSouth]

A blender has blades at the bottom. Beaters are either a manual egg beater, or the two similar objects on an electric mixer that rotate.

[@arthuridis]

Yeah, and they were shaped like the spinning window at the beginning. Rounded corners.

Even though I despise the answer tinkle, that's the go to answer with ANY panel on this show.. The colonel tried to pluck himself of course

[@loissimmons109]

Greg reminds me of Harold Nicholas, the younger brotther of the spectacular dance team, the Nicholas Brothers, who were featured in this dance number in the movie "Stormy Weather". Harold is the one whose hair is long enough to do a bit of a hair flip when he embellishes his moves. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6Cwk5h6naxsnLc&ab_channel=BlackPepperSwing

[@nunosoares2329]

The flaw in the game is a split between the panel (no disrespect to the deceased) and the contestants because both weren't the sharpest tool in the shed sorry to say.

[@MikeSebastianVideos]

Has anyone ever seen the prizes they gave the contestants who lost?

[@magikexpert]

It's the ones they list from the sponsors.

[@jamesr1703]

Jiffy Pop popcorn.

[@storylass9071]

carpet sweeper, wet/dry vac, rice-a-roni, cookery, etc.

[@pencils812]

Faux brick wall coverings, varnish, Maybelline makeup kit, root beer, Wella & Balsam shampoo, luggage....to name a few.
