Match Game 76 (Episode 682) (April Fools Episode)

[@Observer-jw8wv]

Richard's "I Quit" sign in the opening was ironic and prophetic. LOL.

[@pencils812]

Wasn't he on til 78?

Actually it was self-fulfilling prophecy. He'd been planning.

LMAO OMG I love Charles

Loved loved loved Fannie!

Fanny is cute as a button - and so was the male contestant!! :)

I always get up and boogie to the theme of this show

[@pencils812]

It's good that someone liked it.

[@ts.elliot5870]

What were you taking?

[@donaldleroy6502]

Charles was knocking them outta the park today, that alone makes this a gold 🌟 episode

[@janeporter818]

Awesome!! Thanks for posting!!

[@steveyounker7897]

That was pretty cool of Richard to bring up the obvious chauvinism in the questions. The women have been complaining about it for years, but the writers are all men. Maybe they needed to hear it from another guy. They did include Dumb Donald, and Fat Freddy at some point. It's only fair.

[@jjryan1352]

Sally was color-coordinated with the set.

[@corrinewadino8771]

They have done a lot of match games 76 shows! These guys were working really really hard

[@corrinewadino8771]

Immediately when he said Horse shirt, are you exactly what he meant and then Charles emphasized!

[@eddieafterburner]

2:06 Sally: “Make it hard” Gene: “That’s what she said” 😏

[@jimmeasel1712]

:52 Richard and Gene play I've Got A Secret....

[@hibiscusfreak]

Scoey was so, so handsome :-)

[@irishmermaid4]

And Scoey has a terrific sense of humor.

[@eddieafterburner]

… and he can rock a pink shirt

[@Zman1963]

I bet he told him his zipper was down.

[@LVSignChick]

Considering how quickly Gene turned away from the camera, that was my guess, too...

[@jjryan1352]

Seems the audience didn't catch on when Scoey was like are you sure he said "horse shirt" (and not horsesheet)? He was a bit miffed about it after 3 others also had basically the same joke.

[@zazelby]

"Hayfever" should have matched, if "runny nose" did.

[@kimandrews7186]

I can see why Richard wanted to leave.

[@pencils812]

It seems like it would get boring after a while. They started using the same or similar questions over and over again.

[@kristabrewer6736]

Wasn't too soon for me!

[@eddieafterburner]

Spending your weekends working with Brett for years on end, playing second fiddle to Gene’s ego, your own failed game show (Masquerade Party), repetitive gameplay that stoops to potty humor, genitalia references, and bodily functions instead of appealing to cleverness and intellect … yeah, I can see why, too.

[@sandrababb9062]

Brett would be my reason for leaving! Definitely!

[@ts.elliot5870]

​@@kristabrewer6736You can leave at anytime.

[@corrinewadino8771]

Don’t know why BRETT always tries to put something on JACK. If it wasn’t for JACK, she would not be sitting there and have a contract as long as match game continues.

[@josephpalermo4538]

Brett is so annoying .. if I was Scoey, I'd tell her to get off me .

[@garfield2439]

Love when Scoey pouts🤗😍

[@edwardlozano8807]

could have labeled it "April Fool's Episode"....

[@MatchGameProductions]

Edward Lozano I did haha. Just edited the title!

[@pencils812]

@@MatchGameProductions what was the joke with Richard,Gene and Scoey at the beginning?

[@corrinewadino8771]

STUMBLE DONT STUMBLE

[@pencils812]

Richard is wearing the same outfit as the episode before.

[@susanbezio6708]

So is Charles except he put a sweater on over his shirt.

[@pencils812]

@Susan Bezio it was probably a hassle changing outfits after each game. And so wasteful of resources. Imagine all that extra laundry. The smokers had to be washing clothes constantly.

[@sdlively27]

My first thought was clock.. because it had ticks.. ;0) Love ya Charles! ;0)

[@pencils812]

Good one!

[@JamesJohnson-re9zw]

I wonder how much money they were paid to be on the show?

[@DJRitty]

the regs who knows but I think the guests are there for promotion.

[@eddieafterburner]

Mike Evans got $750 to appear for a week in Oct 1974. I’m sure it was different depending on the celeb, but at least that puts you in the ballpark.

H/H match update: ... Today's action: A new champion earns her right to play the Super Match. Today's audience match question: "Chewing _______ " (Gum, tobacco, and ?) The celebs: Richard (gum), Susan (a cud), and Brett (tobacco) The choice: Gum The answers: The cud, Tobacco, Gum An easy $500 for our new champ. Now, who will she select for a chance to win 5K? I have a feeling she's part of the ginormous Team Richard. Let's see... It is Richard, for the sixth consecutive time. He's matched 3 of his last 10 attempts. Today's H/H question: "Make a _______ " (My first thought: Wish) Richard immediately begins to write. The camera cuts to the contestant, so I can't get a sense of the length of his answer. Our new champ seems less than confident as Gene asks for her response. She says "cake." The audience groans. Richard reveals the same answer that immediately popped into my mind when I heard the question: "Wish." No match today. 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). Brett - 41.8% (23 wins in 55 attempts). Richard - 40.4% (160 wins in 396 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 682, 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!")

Scoey looks great with a beard.

[@johniringan8460]

Make a cake is so dumb.

[@poolside16190]

I wonder what Richard says. Probably something naughty.

[@Richard74205]

I believe that Richard told him to some effect that when he came out, his fly was open.

[@poolside16190]

Richard74205 how do you know?

[@Richard74205]

The way Gene just kept looking down after he said that made me think of that.

[@lorimiller4301]

@@poolside16190 He turned his back to the camera. Usually a no-no. Also the joke that the Guy off camera makes eludes to it.
