Match Game "New Years Eve" Marathon

[@helanesolomon1724]

I don't think any of the celebrities on the panel would have guessed we would be watching and laughing with this show in 2021. I'm so glad to have these shows to brighten my day.

I so agree with the choice of Match Game. There is nuclear kind of interplay which occurs during each individual show. It challenges your mind and tickles your funny 'blank'.

[@kidmack3556]

I loved 1976! and the lead up starting in '74 and '75 Most patriotic I've ever been, and probably ever will be. As matter of fact, I've noticed how many people nostalgically identify with the confederate or the "Unite Or Die" or the "Don't Tread On Me" flags. Well my American identity is symbolized by the "President Ford" Bicentennial Star. Bye bye Miss American Pie...

The amusing thing is these New Year's Eve episodes were probably taped in October LOL

[@michaelj.kerkau1625]

Only 1978's was taped anywhere near that far out (early November). 1975 and 1977 were taped in late November, 1973, 74, and 76 were taped in mid-December. MG-HS isn't currently known, but could be similar to 75 + 77 - late November or early December. As for 90, no idea - though I suspect that wasn't taped that far out either.

Why can't we have shows like this today in 2020 because everyone would say dirty words in some of the blanks it wouldn't be funny then and all the great ones on here have passed on or are very old. Either way never be like this again in this world we live.
