As much as I enjoy Joey's usual style of deadpan wisecracks, it was a really nice change of pace to see him so animated and genuinely enjoying himself here!
H/H match update: ... Today's action: Our champion wins his second victory by a nose (a nose being blown on a handkerchief, that is)! The burning question remains: Will he get his glasses steamed by Joey again? Today's audience match question: "C.B. _________" (My thoughts: Radio, S., ???) The celebs: Brett (S.), Joey (DeMille), and Richard (Radio) The choice: DeMille The answers: De Mille, Radio, S. Brett gave the top answer again, but this time our champion was distracted by Joey's charm and only adds $100 to his winnings, but at least he gets a shot at the head-to-head. He chose Brett last time, but they didn't match. Will he stick with her, or possibly try Joey (or even Richard)? No hesitation. It's Brett. This is now her fourth consecutive head-to-head, which is a new record for her. Charles recently had a string of 7 plays spanning multiple champions (episodes 707-713), but no other celeb (except Richard of course) has ever exceeded 3 in a row. Note: Brett has missed her two most recent attempts. Another loss today and she'll slip back below Richard in overall accuracy for the first time in about 17 weeks now... Today's H/H question: "_______ Mouse" (This should be a match if everyone follows my rule of sticking to the most simple, basic, common response, which in this case would have to be Mickey Mouse. An alternative would be Mighty Mouse, but really, why go for a semi-obscure choice when the ubiquitous answer is staring you in the face?) Brett doesn't take long to decide. In fact, she looks surprised that it's so easy. But then, the last two questions were easy too (typewriter and shrimp cocktail), but the contestants picked a more obscure answer (ghost writer and shrimp salad). She glances at Joey before filing her card. The champion sums up my thoughts when he says "It's gotta be Mickey Mouse." Brett looks stunned. Maybe she's just surprised that a contestant finally gave the obvious answer? Or did she blow it? Gene mentions the proverbial "church mouse" which hadn't occurred to me. It's not a bad answer, but Mickey is still better! Brett pulls through! "Mickey." Let the kissing commence! (Joey gets his kiss after all, but from Brett, not from the champion!) Brett scores her 26th H/H match today. Here's our updated leader board showing the 11 celebs with at least 3 H/H matches, ranked by accuracy: (Note: An asterisk before a celebrity's name signifies that she has "retired" from the show and her H/H stats are now complete.) (Note: 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). Gary Burghoff - 83.3% (5 wins in 6 attempts). TIE: (*)Jo Anne Worley - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). TIE: Joyce Bulifant - 75% (3 wins in 4 attempts). Fannie - 52.4% (11 wins in 21 attempts). Charles - 51.0% (27 wins in 53 attempts). Betty - 50.0% (18 wins in 36 attempts). Jo Ann Pflug - 44.4% (8 wins in 18 attempts). Brett - 41.9% (26 wins in 62 attempts). Richard - 40.9% (179 wins in 438 attempts). Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts). *These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 748, excluding the lost/missing/damaged episodes: 31, 32, 33, 311, 312, 313, 324, 325, and 645. (As per MatchGameProductions, these episodes "are nowhere to be found and also aren't in the Goodson/Todman Library. Sadly, looks like they are lost forever!")
I just read a comic where they used the same scenario that a pretty girl dropped her handkerchief, and the guy she was interested in picked it up and blew his nose with it!
WOW! Brett 's on a roll!! picked 3 times in and only lost once (thankfully, he's never picked saint Richard. He probably wouldn't have won at all with his track record)
loud mouth Brett stepped on gene's joke again,...but Gene should know never to try to joke around Brett...stay away! Like the 4th black woman who DOESN'T mention her husbands name - but her CHILDREN'S np... I still hate Joyce - she doesn't even ever called on for the first supermatch round hahaha
The first thing I thought of was C.B. Farnsworth, who was a contestant in '74. I clearly watch too much Match Game.
exactly
I thought of him to
Wasn't C.B. Farnsworth the ghost on Petticoat Junction. He was the first name I thought of, and I don't remember him on this show

They're at Television City OF COURSE they would say CBS!

Joey was funny in this episode! I sure appreciate whoever posts these videos. They make me feel nostalgic and happy.
oh man joey is incredible in this episode
CB Farnsworth!
Gene would have gotten Betty mad by saying that the Doberman dogs were vicious animals.
larry i thought is was bettys husband allen
I hope type for a living
(and he looks A LOT more like Brock Speer)
Joy is very, naturally pretty, and seems very sweet.
Finally Gene tells Brett to shut up when he's talking. She was rude that way. Got on my nerves.
He did that plenty of times. she was drunk all the time. They tend to blather
It's a joke get over it.
Brett wastes so much time having the question repeated to her almost every time! Jeez!
What do you expect? She's drunk
It's filler for the time the other panelists are thinking of and writing their answers.
@@thebrinksf69 even in the morning shows?
GROW UP!!!!!!!! saint Richard's JUST as bad for wanting the question repeated (if not worse)!
@@thebrinksf69 GROW UP!!!!!!! (can you guys at least TRY to act like Adults)
I just read a comic where they used the same scenario that a pretty girl dropped her handkerchief, and the guy she was interested in picked it up and blew his nose with it!
So many times Richard has responded with "pardon, or "present",..it gets old..
Richard getting passive-aggressive as usual when he gets called on third in the Super Match 🤣🤣🤣
I got Tackling but can not believe I missed Wardens office geeZ
Charles's "city dump" response is vicious. 😈 Then Richard, too! I'm starting to wonder about Richard.
I have a dark sense of humour, so I've gotta admit that my first thought was "landfill" too, haha
Joyce was so dumb
but I think it was just her act
How dumb was she? 😜
Yes. Like Suzanne Somers.
Joyce and Patti should NEVER have been this show!!
It was just an act, Joyce has always been smart when she plays this game
@@kristabrewer6736 And yet they still bring Patti and ajoyce back because they are pretty good players
WOW! Brett 's on a roll!! picked 3 times in and only lost once
(thankfully, he's never picked saint Richard. He probably wouldn't have won at all with his track record)
12:52 You think CBS is on top? You bet CBS is on top.
"Slide it Earl. "
when they don't pick Richard he gives stupid answers...
BTW: Joyce trying to quirky is NOT funny.
Was that both Dawson and Joyce mispelling "tackling?" Then those sabotage answers from the same two in the next game? Hmm.
Did Richard copy Joyce?
Wardens office
He sacked the First Lady
Larry the Allen Ludden look a like?
@@pencils812 The president ford question at 15:12
@@lesburns7395 ah. Got it.
I hate when the pretty girls don't win, she would've been nice to look at for another episode.
Church mouse
this was the last year of Brett's marriage to Jack Klugman
I thought they were a
perfect match! lol
too bad they divorced
I imagine neither was the easiest to live with. The did last 21 years if I remember right.
The lady with 2 Doberman dogs Mary and gene say they are dangerous dogs, guess what they are not dangerous if they are treated good!L
Look-Alike, not Look-A-Like
I was hoping Richard Dawson would say CBS since that’s the network his show was on.
Family Feud was on ABC, Match Game was on CBS.
@@crissrudd4554 LOL
loud mouth Brett stepped on gene's joke again,...but Gene should know never to try to joke around Brett...stay away! Like the 4th black woman who DOESN'T mention her husbands name - but her CHILDREN'S np... I still hate Joyce - she doesn't even ever called on for the first supermatch round hahaha
Joey Bishopelli
Has anyone seen the episode that Betty is talking about at the end of the video at 2:50?

This show caused the demise of the name Edna ("Ugly Edna") for female babies 🚼
What about Dora ("Dumb Dora is SOOOOO dumb ...")?
