Match Game PM (Episode 14) (No Smoking?)

[@amberola1b]

I hate to keep on saying this, but everybody seemed much happier on the Match Game PM show than on the daytime version. Even and especially Richard. I just loved this show.

[@sherrynalder1359]

And i still do love the show after all these years! Makes me smile

[@LVSignChick]

MGPM has a wilder vibe to it...

[@benhallums3230]

RIP GENE RAYBURN, MARK GOODSON, BILL TODMAN, CHARLES NELSON REILLY, BRETT SOMERS, RICHARD DAWSON, SHELDON LEONARD, LOUISA MORITZ & JOHNNY OLSON whom missed them a lot.

"...Eve came to bed with a headache"! lol, that was a good answer. that's my Charles.

[@sassatlast9226]

Wow Sheldon Leonard! Where the writers of the Big Bang theory got the names for their two characters as a tribute to him!

[@timothycarpenter9552]

Dawson did a great job immitation of Sheldon Leonard.

[@Observer-jw8wv]

I wonder what happened to my comment. It's disappeared, along with the post it was responding to. I just wanted to say that the exchange starting around 5:00 was lovely. Richard clearly felt indebted to Sheldon Leonard, who looked delighted by both Richard's comment and his imitation. Very sweet moment.

[@MichaelSimmons.]

The show Richard Dawson is talking about, that Sheldon Leonard gave him his first part, is The Dick Van Dyke Show. That's what Richard said when he entered the writer's office.

[@TigerzLionzPistonzWingz]

It might have been Hogan Heros because Leonard produced that too.

[@kt9166]

No, definitely DICK VAN DYKE. He mentioned Carl Reiner's advice, and Carl was the creator and producer of the Van Dyke Show. Besides, I know that episode! Hello, lovey!

[@calvada1]

Racy Tracy Rattigan. Tried to make a move on Laura. Great tidbit.

[@Observer-jw8wv]

@@TigerzLionzPistonzWingz No, it's absolutely the Dick Van Dyke show. He told that story many times, including on his TV Legends interview, although I've never seen him tell it as warmly as in this episode. He was clearly thrilled to be able to tell it with Sheldon sitting there. And Hogan's Heroes was produced by Eddie Feldman, not Sheldon Leonard.

[@georgemaster689]

Richard's first television appearance was in a 1963 episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show as Racy Tracy Rattigan.

[@tvpmark]

Richard's impersonation of Sheldon Leonard was funny, and so was Fannie's British accent. Isn't it interesting that the male contestant's name was Leonard Bernstein (no relation to the conductor).

[@kt9166]

That voice and accent got Sheldon lots of work during his salad years, before he moved into television production. What a guy!

[@Observer-jw8wv]

The story Richard told about getting his first US job on the Dick Van Dyke show from Sheldon Leonard was fantastic.

[@bobhoward6676]

CNR wanted to say "Out Of The Closet"

[@40bpaula]

He should have gone ahead and said it.

[@kristabrewer6736]

Yes, I know, you guys are all psychic 🙄

RIP Louisa Moritz (1936-2019)

Oh wow, she was the first victim of Bill Cosby to come forward.

Louisa's right you marinade liver in milk, buttermilk or yogurt to get rid of the gamey taste

[@sherrynalder1359]

Didn't know that!

[@danareynolds1786]

I immediately thought "hog" wash.

[@JamesJohnson-re9zw]

Gene needs to wear his checkered suit again

[@vivianhamilton616]

please no!😜

[@timothyball4906]

What happened to all of those paper answers? Recycled or Ebay?

[@lynnlobliner3933]

@Timothy Ball - mostly they ripped them up. And I heard that there weren't any trash cans to all those papers fell down by the stars' feet. If the contestant matched the star for the big money, it got where the star was signing the card and giving it to the contestant.

[@rhyancoleman6462]

NO ONE thought of car wash?!?!?!?

[@timothyball4906]

Great movie with good music!

[@LynxSouth]

@@timothyball4906 It didn't come out until a year after this, 1976.

[@bobnelson9480]

His name was Leonard Bernstein and he had a great suit to boot. Wonder if he's still alive...

He's 2 for 2 for the stupidest answers; what was it the other day; "Burns and Cuts" (seriously)

What was the No Smoking reference made to? I missed it.

Sheldon was smoking

[@pencils812]

@@lynnlobliner3933 so was Charles, although it was a pipe.

​@@kristabrewer6736Be quiet.

[@davidganderson870]

I'd have matched gene with car wash at least. I couldn't think of anything besides carwash except hogwash or body wash both of which, as Charles might put it, "stinks" as an answer

[@jamesbonnen]

What year did Match Game PM go to 3 rounds?

[@pencils812]

There was a young child in the front row. What a weird place to bring a child.

You hear them complain about always Richard.,that's y they brought the wheel in. Brett and CNR complained

It was not an apple that the serpent had Eve take a bite of. It was a type of fruit. That’s very large, like a plum that grows off the tree branches like grapes! Eve was deceived, ADAM, RECIVED!
