Match Game PM (Episode 15) (Let's Stand Up To Salute?)

[@jimjam1719]

charles is brilliant- "can i shorten it to boo", 6:08 in reference to brett's answer, a sarcastic return, charles was very witty and sharp.

[@evalu3260]

Yes. Charles used to love making fun of Brett.

[@kristabrewer6736]

@@evalu3260 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I guess that's why they were best friends, huh 🙄🙄

[@ts.elliot5870]

Gotta luv Charles he added that spark to the top row!

[@sassatlast9226]

I liked Patty Duke's hair in this episode! She looked very pretty!

[@sadiebeast97]

Patty Duke is gorgeous here.

[@AtlantaGymFan]

When tv had witty writers and diverse actors. 'Twas a golden time!

[@pencils812]

Charles loved those very large eye glasses.

I love them look forward to watching the

[@yvonnepeters1914]

That's a funny beginning! Lol.

[@ashleereed7902]

I always wonder what its would be like on the game show back then and I love this game :)

[@timothycarpenter9552]

Now, I understand why Scoey, Brett and Charles saluted.

[@ts.elliot5870]

That was quite the uniform. He'd be right at home home in West Hollywood.

[@Observer-jw8wv]

Richard's birth name is Colin Emm, so it's interesting to see him encounter another Colin and not even get involved in the discussion about the pronunciation. He weighs in on the matter only by saying the guy's name at 6:43. There's no way it would be said "COLON" in the Scotland, by the way. It would be a bit closer to "Cullen," as Richard also says it, but the corporal was just repeating what Gene said and was too polite to correct him.

[@antster1983]

Corporal Colin Williams doesn't sound even remotely Scottish. I'd say he was actually originally from Lancashire (in north-west England) but states he's from Edinburgh as he was stationed with the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards.

[@40bpaula]

I don't think Richard much liked his nbirth name. He changed it way before coming to America. Sad cause I like the name Collin but it is very british.

[@Observer-jw8wv]

@@40bpaula I agree with you. I think there was a lot about his life in England that he was happy to leave behind.

[@genkatqltr737]

I wonder if they gave Colin his gift/gifts right away or mailed them to his home in Scotland. 🤔

[@pencils812]

One of the gifts was an air conditioner and another was a clock radio. He wouldn't be able to use them, unless they had those outlet converters available then.

[@AlliSam54]

Patty´s (Anna Maria´s) intelligence is obvious.

[@rokkitgurl]

YES! I finally found this episode!!! Scoey is a legend in this one! It should be in his top 20 episodes. BLANK Wallace! Hilarious!!

[@kevansf]

"George Wal ASS" priceless, Scoey! (From Wikipedia: "Wallace earned national notoriety by standing in front of the entrance of the University of Alabama, blocking the path of black students." - Hence Scoey's joke about misspelling the man's name because Wallace wouldn't let him go to school.)

[@grigorb.5221]

Thanks

[@sdlively27]

Patti matched! ;0)

[@joetrolo7076]

And a broken clock is right twice a day LOL

[@jessechristian8665]

Purely by accident.

[@MichaelSimmons.]

Instead of having a picture of George Washington, it had a picture of George "Jefferson". Nobody got the joke.

[@evalu3260]

I got it. 🤣

[@feudfan55]

@Jeshex The Jefferson’s debuted in January 1975. They had been on the air for almost a year at this point.

[@sdlively27]

Richard once again won the week giving away 22,750 dollars in head to head and audience match matches with 11 matches for the regulars. Fannie won for the semi regulars with 3 matches. Brett gave away 1,000 dollars in audience match matches.

[@michele695]

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS PATTY DUKE

[@amberola1b]

I`m surprised nobody said George Jefferson as a picture on the dollar bill since The Jeffersons were on tv in 1975

[@kevansf]

I thought of George Jetson.

[@brachio1000]

Jacky is gorgeous with a vaguely exotic look like that of a henchwoman working for one of Bond's enemies.

[@brachio1000]

@A.D. I don't think so, but what do I know?

[@timothyball4906]

Colin is so much like Danny Kaye.

[@timothyball4906]

That girl has the prettiest black hair.

[@tvpmark]

Who enjoyed the Scotsman's first-round answer? Richard matched him. In the end, Jackie the beautician moved on to the Super- Match and won.

[@jjryan1352]

Sounded like 2 or 3 answers and panty hose wasn't a match

[@jeffclement2468]

Spoiler!

[@GizmoFromPizmo]

Patti Deutsch did her best to work against the contestants. No es bueno.

[@kristabrewer6736]

I know :( And the worst part is, Gene and the produces KNEW she deliberately lost for the contestant, and yet they STILL kept having her back :(

[@corrinewadino8771]

Someone said George Jefferson I think that was an excellent answer!

[@corrinewadino8771]

3000 times for throwing up

[@corrinewadino8771]

I thought he said pumps

[@khaotix64]

I never liked Patti Deutsch on this show. She gives terrible answers on purpose and it screws the contestants over

[@carolynwyller5321]

I agree! She rarely even tries to match!

[@evalu3260]

fecman94 You are absolutely right. I don’t know why they kept her on the show unless it was a way to mess with the contestants. One less chance to win.

[@todddepue681]

Yes she did it on purpose....according to Marcia Wallace, the producers assigned seat 6 to come up with unexpected answers to end the round on a punch. The idea being that a series of repetitive answers got stale and made for boring TV. So not only did those women have to be creative, they also needed a thick skin to deal with viewers hating on them for not matching.

[@jessechristian8665]

I think she thinks she's being cute and funny. Everybody expects her to just say something completely stupid and unrelated to the question. Might as well use a magic 8 ball, it would be cheaper and probably match more often.

[@nohandle62]

I don't like her either.

[@pygiana16]

Who or what do you guard, not whom. Why can’t he get it right?

[@generay4054]

Because we are probably supposed to say Whom, as you can tell during the Super Match when Gene asked Whom to you call, and we are the ones saying it wrong.

[@LynxSouth]

In standard (now formal) English, it's 'whom'.

[@CousinOresama]

In this case, since he's being asked the object of the question, whom is correct. Think of it like this. "He guards the queen." If you want to know who is guarding, you ask, "Who is guarding the queen?" But if you want to know who is being guarded, you are supposed to use the objective (as opposed to subjective) form of who, thus "Whom do you guard?" is correct. I would have never known this had I not taken up teaching English as a foreign language. Sorry. Too much information, I know.

[@joetrolo7076]

I don't think Patty realized there were people there trying to win money. I think she thought it was a place to Showcase stupid responses.

[@todddepue681]

Seat 6 was told to come up with unexpected answers. Producers thought things grew stale with too much repetition and they wanted the rounds to end with a punch.

[@joetrolo7076]

@@todddepue681 interesting, thanks for the insight. I just always feel bad for the people, when you know it's going to be their last chance and they're probably screwed. Lol

[@todddepue681]

@@joetrolo7076 yeah I heard Marcia Wallace talk about it in an interview years later. Always thought it put those women in a tough spot. Not only did they have to be creative, they also had to deal with the inevitable frustration people had with them.

[@todddepue681]

@@joetrolo7076 it's great sometimes when the contestants give oddball answers that get no matches and then 6 will triumphantly reveal an unexpected match. Fannie Flagg seemed to be able to pull that off pretty well.

This is the George Wallace episode.

Colin should have gotten points for girdle. A girtle is stretch Pants.

[@pencils812]

Lol. I was surprised they gave him the point for panty hose.

[@GizmoFromPizmo]

Scoey was making a joke by asking to go to the bathroom because he wasn't playing that round but Gary Burghoff actually did wander off stage when he wasn't playing. Gene had to scold him on air for his behavior.

[@40bpaula]

hey! No fair. Panty hose and (pants, drawers or bloomers) are not the same thing or worn for the same reason. Foul. Foul. Lol...okay, George Wallace was a great answer! LMAO! George monty Hall. .

They need (the psycho hospital) need to send someone to get patti and put her back in her cell.

[@corrinewadino8771]

It’s awful with the celebrities give the wrong answer and they think it’s funny! They do it on purpose, knowing that the contestant is there to win money!

[@StLawrencePlace]

Scoey is a shady man with unmatched answers.

@@accam6734 Harrison Brown? Is that Scoey`s real name?
