Match Game PM Episode 118

[@lynbaker3973]

RICHARD DAWSON was tired -- he was doing 5 shows of match game in one day , 5 shows of match game pm in one day and 5 shows of family feud ... along with other shows and life ( love boat and fantasy island at this time too )

[@donniegray553]

damn

[@pencils812]

It was his choice.

[@KQwest98]

That’s the difference from today…they worked and made no excuses

[@Werewolf0216]

Well good job Brett, she gave what was probably the best answer for blank alcohol.

[@richerdchikosky7558]

Even though the guy took the not so smart answer of wood alcohol, the audience cost him BIG MONEY

[@georgemaster6826]

If I had Richard Dawson's schedule,I'd be exhausted!

[@sudsysutherland359]

George Master ; No doubt he must have been so busy with Family Feud & this show but he must have been raking in the $$ back then

[@georgemaster1838]

Sudsy Sutherland Yeah,he was well provided financially.

[@SteveHolsten]

And no telling how many women he was bangin'

[@KQwest98]

Stop making excuses. Too many soft people in the country now adays. Plus you write this on every episode

[@nathantj594]

Oh come on. It's like message in a bottle. Prescription was the perfect answer.

[@pencils812]

Sometimes the contestants were too creative for the panel.

[@tvpmark]

Oh, well. He didn't get the big money but he made it to the Super Match.

[@suzycreamcheesez4371]

what does he mean what is she studying? Her husband is the student.

[@pencils812]

I noticed that too.

[@MatchGameProductions]

Richard's suit is pretty neat during this episode as it blends in with the light blue background on the lower tier.

[@georgemaster6826]

Yeah,the dark blue CBS set was enough to give you a headache! Light blue--nice touch.

[@angiepetersen5610]

I guessed "prescription", as well. 🤷‍♀️

[@Werewolf0216]

John's clapping is over the top

[@corrinewadino8771]

I just googled this, Joyce bulifaunt I still alive, and the person that put this up. Yes, Bill Daley is still alive also!

[@wookinooki9023]

first big wheel episode for Match Game PM.

[@nowandaround312]

What moron in the audience was yelling wood? Not only was it a terrible answer, it was against the rules, and this is why. Poor guy, he looked so disappointed. I doubt "wood" was his first thought but he was nervous and the audience threw him off

[@dannyhill8797]

it's kinda creepy, but four of the six panelists died of cancer: Brett Somers, Bonnie Franklin, Richard Dawson and Marcia Wallace (and her husband!)..and Bill Daily is the only still-living panelist....

[@nowandaround312]

Danny Hill Cancer is the second leading cause of death. None of the panelists were obese, which drastically reduced their risk of death from heart disease, so cancer is expected. It's not creepy but it is sad

[@angelokontogonis871]

Bill Daly died a couple of years ago

[@djm55]

Brett and Richard were chain smokers. I'm not sure about the others.

[@pencils812]

@@djm55 I did see Marcia smoking on this show, just once though.

[@AaronJFriesen]

I'd have almost matched Richard on the milking machine question, as I'd have said "horse".

[@KQwest98]

Almost doesnt count

[@lisaforte1575]

The definitive answer was, "...your mother."

[@MDCSWildcats86]

I would have guessed "his tractor".

[@KiddBloo86]

I'm assuming there was no pm episode taped for the actual first week with the new set (dark blue behind the lower tier). N.R., B.S., C.N.R., Susan Richardson, R.D.,F.F.

[@crissrudd4554]

Correct. PM had a different season schedule than the CBS version

[@KiddBloo86]

+crissrudd4554 Gotcha, at first I was thinking, "Shouldn't this be #119?".

[@crissrudd4554]

G$8605 Yep if you want the specifics. PM#117 was shot during the tapings of #1196-1200 of the CBS version. This was shot during the tapings of #1266-1270 of the CBS version.

[@aspersive]

Richard is starting to get bored and surly by this point. He does manage to crack a smile once, but his trademark banter is all but gone.

[@KQwest98]

Don’t call him Shirley

[@Imamonarchist]

Taped June 10th, 1978.

[@calvada1]

Contestant Nancy is a real looker. WOW. Rats, she lost.

[@mrpuniverse2]

Sept 4 , 1978.

[@SweptAway529]

I've seen Gene Rayburn make a lot of slights to gays on these old shows. I am shocked he did this since he and Charles were such good friends.

[@dannyhill8797]

this was back in the day when people made racist, sexist, and what would be considered today, homophobic comments - and got a laugh.. there is an episode when Brett Somers answered ''fag'' to a Jekyll/Hyde question..i don't recall if CNR was sitting next to her at the time.. from this time, i can hear, now, a lot of commentary here, other television shows and movies that wouldn't go over today...

[@georgemaster1838]

SweptAway529 Charles knew for sure that Gene was joking and he knew that it was his comic style.

[@KQwest98]

They weren’t sensitive wussies then like today. The sheeple make it impossible to have free speech

The stupid audience person that said that needs to give the contestant the $20,000 out of there pocket for not staying quiet like they were told to do
