I have very mixed emotions watching this. On the one hand, I laugh a hearty laugh at some of the BEST true comedy ever performed. On the other hand, I am laughing through tears because these people are no longer with us. They just don't make them like they used to...and that makes me very sad. LOVE...PEACE...HAPPINESS... to them all.
When I was young and watched this show, I didn't really understand Charles' humor. Now I absolutely adore the man and wish he were still around to make me laugh every day, along with Gene, Brett, Richard and all the others that have past on. Thank you for the upload.
Albin Kampfer This was around the time of Family Feud, and from that point on, Richard did want out, but CBS refused. (The star wheel in 78 was the final straw for him)
Bill:"...My poor ole HORT ain't beat the same.... Brett&Charles: "Thump Thump!!!" Bill:"...Since I met you here on Match Game." Brett&Charles: "CBS!! CBS!!" ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! I've seen this only on Gameshow Network and I got to say....I have never cried and laughed this hard in my life!!!! I'm 21 and TV today is NOTHING compared to this!! LOVE IT!!!! :)
She collapsed fell into a coma after coming to Florida to care for her Elder sister, Awaking several days later. They could not determine the cause of the Coma so they released her 2 days later. 3 Days after that she went to take a nap and never woke up. Despite an Autopsy, Cause of Death could not be determined.
This is truly a CLASSIC moment. How did Debralee die, btw? My fav combo was Brett, Charles, Betty Fannie and Dawson with Gene ... Fannie and BEtty hardly ever appeared on the same shows however...and add Mclean Stevenson in the mix...those six kept that show moving and they had great chemistry with one another and Gene *well except for Dawsons head exploding*
2:03 Top five answers are on the board here's the question. What is Richard Dawson thinking at this point? BUZZER I'm going to fire my agent!! Let's see if it's up there...Survey says...DING DING DING!!! It's the number one answer....
As a gay man who remembers those guys, our generation doesn’t do “ gayoffs.” We just want to be accepted and tolerated, not celebrated for whom we love.

Why would Debra Lee Scott not fix her teeth? I love her, don't get me wrong and think she was one of the most down to earth, personable actors ever, but she should have had a bit more pride in her appearance.
did you see the look on RICHARD DAWSON's face --- he was not happy - i would have walked out too ( no , RICHARD was not dating debra lee , he asked asked out the beautiful female panelists and contestants )

That's so right
Bill is still alive!
and Fanny Flagg-had to google that!
Happily, Fannie is still with us! I don't know about Bill.
Charles and Brett - I hope you are having a good time together. We miss you both.
They are dead and there ain't a heaven.
@@misplacednewyawker8320 lighten up. Wow

Charles is my favorite! He chemistry with Brett made the show so great!
I loved Charles. I loved his game show persona.
I'm very sad that he is gone.
"YOU WHAT?!"
That pose is classic!
The best thing was that even Brett & Charles could not help but break up during the song. This kind of fun on game shows is sorely needed today.
Never seen the clip but it was great. 70's clothes just rock!
Charles Nelson Reilly was just hilarious !!! There just aren't comedians around like that anymore.
RIP Gene, Brett, Charles, and Debralee (she is with her husband now, who was a 9/11 victim)
RIP, indeed! :(
Yes indeed RIP
That hip jut from Charles was hilarious. Thanks for posting.
"Oh you're not going dear".
Hilarious.
3:14 Charles camps it up and then Richard smacks him on the butt. I LOVE THIS SHOW.
I didn't catch the smack! Good eyes!!
Dawson said "I want you two to stay, I'll quit". He really meant that.
Albin Kampfer This was around the time of Family Feud, and from that point on, Richard did want out, but CBS refused. (The star wheel in 78 was the final straw for him)
I know. He was kidding but he wasn't.
RIP Charles Nelson Reilly. :(
Goodbye Charles and Brett! You will be missed!
May you rest in peace,Chuck.
Totally hilarious. Thanks for sharing.
Bill:"...My poor ole HORT ain't beat the same....
Brett&Charles: "Thump Thump!!!"
Bill:"...Since I met you here on Match Game."
Brett&Charles: "CBS!! CBS!!"
ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!!
ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!! ROTFLMAO!!
I've seen this only on Gameshow Network and I got to say....I have never cried and laughed this hard in my life!!!!
I'm 21 and TV today is NOTHING compared to this!! LOVE IT!!!! :)
Brings back memories...
They're so silly. TV is rarely as funny and genuine as they were.
At 3:14 , laughed my head off. RIP Charles.
That's what made that show so great...they dared to go way off script for a laugh..and they gave and still give... me many.
Gene,Brett,Charles,and Debreelee.May they rest in peace.:(
blank77 and Richard
i loved this clip!!!
"Thump... THUMP!!" LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!! I CAN'T!!! x-D
3:14 Haha Richard Smacked Charles butt XD
Now that was a Fandango of a performance!
CBS! CBS!
that was hilarious ! love Debra Lee and Fannie.
Real funny,I loved Debralee with that great overbite and cute nose.Sad she died so young I remember her on Mary Hartman.
She was completely adorable.
Watched the show only because of Charles who also played on Ghost and Mrs Muir.Loved him in b that series..
RIP Debralee.
Great clip!

Loved the 1970s and 1980s shows. Debralee ,Brett and Charles was great entertainment on Match Game. Bill Anderson is still going strong with music. 💘
The only one alive from this episode is Fannie Flagg. That's scary realizing how much time has passed.
+Sammy4549 Bill Anderson is still alive too.
+Sammy4549 Yes those are the only two that are still alive.
Richard Dawson isn't dead.
He died back in 2012
her book are kool
I never saw them in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
Bill looks like a televanglist from the 1970s
LOL
This is truly a CLASSIC moment.
How did Debralee die, btw?
My fav combo was Brett, Charles, Betty Fannie and Dawson with Gene ... Fannie and BEtty hardly ever appeared on the same shows however...and add Mclean Stevenson in the mix...those six kept that show moving and they had great chemistry with one another and Gene *well except for Dawsons head exploding*
She had cirrhosis of the liver; but, died in her sleep at the age of 52. RIP, Debralee Scott!
And I'll bet Charles liked it too.
3:14 Richard Dawson slaps Charles on his bottom.
3:03 - Eau Claire, Wisconsin. MY HOME TOWN!!!
They were just being facetious!
Did they come back or was that their final episode?
This is great and hilarious.

I really miss GOOD shows like this!!!
Bill Anderson went on to co-host a short-lived game show for Goodson/Todman and ABC, "The Better Sex".
Brett and Charles are the culture that made me say culture is for me
I LOVE THIS
Hee Hee Hee this is funny Charles is a cowboy and Brett is a cowgirl rest in peace you guys tell gene I said hello
Debreelee Scott is dead too. Wow.
Who would win in a 'gayoff' battle of gameshow regulars? Paul Lynde or Charles Nelson Reily?
Bill Sympson Charles Nelson Reilly for sure!
@@ScorpioDreamer1984 gotta be paul lynde...
As a gay man who remembers those guys, our generation doesn’t do “ gayoffs.” We just want to be accepted and tolerated, not celebrated for whom we love.
...Paul always had the better zingers.
Debra Lee Scott, one of the best costume designers around.
9 stars 🌟
We all can be thankful that Charles & Brett never had a singing career! ;)
Charles could sing opera, no kidding
gsn should put on tv
Jim J. Bullock
I think he spelled it Jm
Not exactly Roy and Dale........

Never could stand Brett Somers. She never said anything nice about her fellow panel members. Her cackling laugh was like fingernails on a blackboard.
Back at the time I was 8 and just thought they were weird as fuck

Was Richard Dawson dating Debra lee??
did you see the look on RICHARD DAWSON's face --- he was not happy - i would have walked out too
( no , RICHARD was not dating debra lee , he asked asked out the beautiful female panelists and contestants )
