Match Game 78 (Episode 1159) ("Will Call") (With Prize Plugs)

[@grape512]

"Oink" is an obvious definitive answer. Pisses me off when it seems like the celebs sometimes gave intentionally wrong answers

[@Mysterycat74]

I was just gonna say the same thing! I even wondered if they all liked Joe so much that they were told to let him win!

[@themermaidstale5008]

I detested it when they just tossed off bizarre answers to try and get a laugh.

[@CousinOresama]

@The Mermaid's Tale Part of the entertainment. Don't get your panties all screwed up.

[@DavidVJones]

​@@themermaidstale5008You mean Ala Patti Deutsch, the"Queen" of the "out of left field for laughs" answers.

[@XMLarry]

I asked her what sign she was born under and she said Do Not Enter

H/H match update: ... ~~~Today's action: Our champion needs five to tie, six to win. "Oink" seems the obvious answer, but I'm not sure if the whole panel is going to think of it. Well, the champ said it (I matched her practically every time last episode). Not even close. It was hard to see, but I think she only matched Betty. She leaves after winning two games and $3,450. *Today's audience match question: "It's________To Me"* (My thoughts: all Greek, all the same, always up) The celebs: Richard (News), Betty (Greek), Charles (Old Hat) The choice: Greek - Huh. I was expecting him to go with "News." I probably would have. The answers: Greek, Up, News This is the first H/H for our new champion. I imagine he'll pick Richard, but maybe Betty? (Slight possibility.) Sorry, Betty. It's Richard. This is now King Richard's 28th consecutive H/H attempt. Stats: Richard has matched 137 of his 315 most recent attempts (43.5%), 76 of his last 175 attempts (43.4%), 29 of his past 67 attempts (43.3%), and 15 of his past 40 attempts (37.5%). His overall success rate is *42.3%* and this is his 793rd attempt so far. For the sake of comparison: Betty has matched 19 of her 38 attempts (50.0%), Charles has matched 34 of his 70 attempts (48.6%), Richard has matched 335 of his 792 attempts (42.3%), and Brett has matched 30 of her 71 attempts (42.3%). Neither Avery Schreiber nor Barbara Rhoades has yet answered a H/H question. *Today's H/H question: "Elevator________"* (I can't decide between shoes and music. Did they even have elevator music back then? I don't remember. But I know for sure they had elevator shoes in the 70's! I'll say that. But I guess elevator doors, buttons, shaft, etc. would be valid answers too...) Richard ponders for about two seconds. As usual, he's looking to the sixth seat (Betty this week) as he files his answer. Alrighty then. The champion gave the same answer I did. The audience is enthusiastic. Now it's up to the head-to-head king... And once again, it's unanimous. Shoes. Richard scores his 336th H/H match today. ~~~Here's our updated leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: (An asterisk before a celebrity's name signifies that she has "retired" from the show and her H/H stats are now complete.) (For tied scores, I consider the one with the greater number of matches to be higher; if the matches are equal, the celeb who first achieved that score goes on top.) Orson Bean - 100% (4 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: (*)Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). Gary Burghoff - 71.4% (5 wins in 7 attempts). Betty - 50.0% (19 wins in 38 attempts). Charles - 48.6% (34 wins in 70 attempts). Fannie - 48.5% (16 wins in 33 attempts). (*)Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Richard - 42.4% (336 wins in 793 attempts). Brett - 42.3% (30 wins in 71 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 1159, excluding the missing/damaged/unavailable episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325, 645, 910, 1024, 1025, 1026, 1027, 1028, 1029, and 1030. *Also, note that episode 849 was never produced. (These stats do, however, include the H/H results of missing episode 968 as those results were revealed in episode 969. Note: There was no H/H in missing episode 1035, as we learn in 1036.)

San Fernando High is the high school that Ritchie Valens attended.

[@WPPCProductions]

Wow.Joe looks like Cesar Ramero or Hal Linden of Barney Miller.....

[@Shane07752]

That was my first thought the Joe resembles Hal Linden.

[@themermaidstale5008]

In the previous episode I commented Hal Linden.

[@garfield2439]

I think he reminds Betty if her hubby

[@kevansf]

He actually does look quite a bit like Cesar Romero (minus the "Joker" makeup)! But he also looks a little bit like "Dark Shadows" actor Jerry Lacy (in the role of Trask).

[@40bpaula]

So...what are elevator shoes? My first...and only...thought was elevator music.

[@DutchVai]

70's platforms...... KISS boots lol

[@Gator11srq]

Ms. Rhoades gave a shocker to Gene at 11:42. Question at 9:30,.

[@WigDog54]

I think Richard had a thing for Betty.

[@kristabrewer6736]

I've thought that for some time

[@brandiegger8808]

I don’t know how any man could resist her. She’s a national treasure.

[@jools01]

oh definitely.

[@randydellinger2996]

Barbara zapped Gene but good. He deserved it. Maybe it will cool his enormous ego.

[@DavidVJones]

@randydellinger2996 For a brief moment or two, but I doubt it...

[@mlchc9004]

Betty White is a beauty, she seems so warm & kind

[@janeporter818]

Love Richard Dawson!!❤❤❤❤

[@kevansf]

I like the funny way he gave his "Brett" answer today!

[@crissrudd4554]

I thought you were gonna label this ‘will call’ haha

[@jerradriggs2884]

It must've been maddening to work with Brett. Gene does a great job of not showing frustration with her antics.

[@DavidVJones]

I always thought they were more like two peas in a pod.

[@sdlively27]

GR! ROFL! Love ya Charles! ;0)

[@jenbuchanan7867]

Did Brett mumble something after Betty said Brett Somers? Betty White is beautiful and such a sweetheart.

[@40bpaula]

If she did mumble, then she had no right to. After all...(in a kid's voice)...she started it.

[@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687]

Get over yourself Brett and Betty were best friends. Brett has said she even went to taping of The Betty White Show. Best friends do that. Brett and Jack were VERY close to Betty and Allen so this is all FUN banter.

[@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687]

Brett is ALSO beautiful and such a sweetheart.

[@garfield2439]

Brett was a jealous petty woman

[@CousinOresama]

Brett was obnoxious. She was always dissing everyone else.

[@johniringan8460]

The rest of the panel is tired of her choosing Dickie for head to head question.
