- Wow is this Richard Dawson character smiling and having a great time on Match Game? That a change of personality for him!
Tom Dreesen, Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly, Debralee Scott, Richard Dawson, and Joyce Bulifant
Tom Dreesen is STILL with us (as of 9/6/2022) and wonderful!! Charles almost never applauds Gene when he comes out...or when contestants leave.
Neither does big nose, rubber lips dawson !!
Tom Dreesen was later in Spaceballs the Spaceball trooper who was shaving.
And yes I agree. Richard seems to be livening up again. Definite improvement compared to the past few weeks.
Maybe he got some 💤💤😴😴💤

H/H match update and preview of the week ahead:
...
This is now week 239 of our favorite classic game show (the show ends with week 291 and episode number 1455). These episodes were taped on March 4, 1978, and originally aired in early to mid-April of 1978.
Our three stalwart regulars are all in their places with bright, shiny faces, and for the first time in several weeks, there's a newbie on the panel! Joining our regulars this time are:
~~~Semi-regular Joyce Bulifant is back after a bit of an absence (we last saw her back in episodes 1126-1130). This will be her 33rd week (of 38 total). Joyce is perched near the top of the head-to-head leader board, with her 75% accuracy score (3 wins in 4 attempts). Will this finally be the week when we add a bit more data to her stats (and break that perma-tie with Jo Anne Worley)?
~~~Debralee Scott returns for her 7th week (of 10 total), having most recently appeared in episodes 1141-1145. After 30 shows so far, Debralee has yet to be chosen to answer her first H/H question.
~~~Last but not least, Tom Dreeson joins the panel for his first and only week.
King Richard was the unanimous choice for the H/H again last week, now making 11 straight weeks.
Reviewing the past 93 weeks, Richard has played *411* times. Everyone else combined played *54* times. (Charles had 17 opportunities, Brett 13, Fannie 13, Betty 3, Lynn Deerfield 1, Gary Burghoff 1, Rosemary Forsyth 1, Nipsey Russell 1, Meg Bennett 1, Scoey Mitchell 1, Trish Stewart 1, and Marcia Wallace 1.) Percentage-wise, Richard continues to climb - he's now answered *88.4%* of all the H/H questions during these past 93 weeks.
Richard starts the week off with a very good track record, having matched 42.3% of his H/H questions, now just a bit ahead of Brett's accuracy score (also 42.3%), but well behind Charles's and Joyce's awesome scores (48.6% and 75.0%, respectively).
Will someone, anyone, other than Mr. Dawson get to answer a H/H question this week? Eventually, yes, someone will, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it to happen this week. But we'll see...
~~~Today's action:
Once again, that classic old Match Game answer comes through for a victory. Yes, our champ wins his second game thanks to Brett's "Right or Left Bosom." (Only Joyce went in a different direction: "Fanny.")
*Today's audience match question: "Take Your________"*
(My thoughts: Time, Pick, Medicine)
The celebs: Richard (Pick), Brett (Time), Charles (Seat)
The choice: Time
The answers: Seat, Pick, Time
Not bad. He's picked the top answer both times now. And I imagine he'll pick Richard for the H/H again, given they did match last time.
He does. This is now King Richard's 63rd consecutive H/H attempt. (No other celeb has played a head-to-head question since Fannie in 1132.)
Oh, I just looked back, and there hasn't been a single H/H match on a "Monday" (the first day of a new panel) since episode 1156, seven weeks ago! Will the jinx be broken this week???
Stats: Richard has matched 153 of his 352 most recent attempts (43.5%), 92 of his last 212 attempts (43.4%), 45 of his past 104 attempts (43.3%), 31 of his past 77 attempts (40.3%), and 14 of his past 35 attempts (40.0%). His overall success rate is *42.3%* and this is his 830th attempt so far.
For the sake of comparison: Joyce has matched 3 of her 4 attempts (75.0%), Charles has matched 34 of his 70 attempts (48.6%), Richard has matched 351 of his 829 attempts (42.3%), and Brett has matched 30 of her 71 attempts (42.3%). Neither Debralee Scott nor Tom Dreeson has yet answered a H/H question.
*Today's H/H question: "________in the World"*
(What in the world? That's my first and best answer.)
Richard is seen glancing toward Joyce as he writes his answer. The contestant appears to still be thinking as the bell dings.
Our champ gives an answer I discarded without even writing down. "Peace in the World," he says. When I thought of that, I decided it should be "Peace on Earth," so I didn't think it worthy of consideration. Am I wrong? I have been before! (The audience offers lukewarm or slightly better applause.)
Oh dear. Richard had my answer. (Or I had his, given he wrote it first, about 46 years ago!) - "What"
No 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 - 42.3% (351 wins in 830 attempts). (42.2891%)
Brett - 42.3% (30 wins in 71 attempts). (42.2535%)
Bert Convy - 33.3% (5 wins in 15 attempts).
*These stats include every head-to-head match from episode 1 through 1191, 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.)
Whoa: Dickie Dawson is happy 😃
He showed some happiness here and there.
Tom Dreesen was a comedian. I had no idea who he was.
Wasn't he friendly with Frank Sinatra?
No wonder that mouse had a easy time getting out of the maze, he had a.......... Smart phone with google maps !!!! Duh !!! Lol
Dressing room = locker room.
I was really expecting someone to answer Tom Thumb to the final question, given how often Tom Thumb has appeared in MG questions over the years!
I thought someone might say, "Take your shoes off," which was from the song at the end of some Beverly Hillbillies episodes. I had to go listen to that song on here after watching this Match Game episode :)
CNR's answer of a "Mexican 🇲🇽 Diet"...
😂😄😁😆🤣
“What in the world “ was on tv in 1952.
Gene Rayburn has no equal...Johnny Olson as well😉
ok
Debbie is now a real estate agent
"He had a directions" lol
The title should be "The STICKY Handshake"!!
🤝🤷♀️
I've watched countless episodes of match game 70s series, from the start I've always been a 20pcter, but in the last half dozen or so I've been on 🔥. Billy Barty was such a 😎 guy, short people got no reason, short people got no reason, short people got no reason to live, the only line I remember
My mom hated that song. Joyce said she heard it was getting banned in some places.....Interesting.
It is tongue- in- cheek
Funny to me
Billy Barty was great as Hugo in Dr. Shrinker! and also as Sigmund on Sigmund and the Seamonsters! which also had Mary Wicks (often on Match Game) as aunt Zelda and later Rip Taylor was Sigmund's sea genie, also Margaret Hamilton (wicked Witch of the West) made occasional appearances on Sigmund as the nosy next door neighbor. Krofft was as great as Match Game. Watched them all again here on youtube.
Huh?
Man, Billy Barty was really famous in 1978
Tom Dreesen and Joyce Bulifant are the only two living celebrities on the panel.
Yes Dreesen at 79 and Bulifant at 81.I did not realize they were that old now.
Were you expecting an all dead panel?
No .I thought those two were younger in their late 60's.Forgot these shows were 40 years ago.LOL....
I like to play the dead count game in the opening to figure out who’s living and who’s dead.
Hhahaha. Yes just like old movies I do the same.
Regulars Fannie is 74 and Betty White is 97 years young..
Most of these contestants around the girl Debbie's age are probably in their 60's now.I dont know what were the age limits for the young contestants on these shows are then.. Maybe .18 or 21.
I actually matched Richard's "WHAT in the World"! 🙂
How come Joyce can’t eat on the show but the drunk Brett can chew away without Gene saying anything to her? He lets her get away w/everything.. Never shuts her mouth !
Brett is hopeless
Awesome episode
Is Gene been/is sick again like back MG75? He is looking a little thin in the face, not as thin as I have seen in some of the syn episodes, and I usually can tell in his voice.. Granted, yes he is 60 years old here and been drinking alot of "hot? tea" lately on the set. He had his tie and shirt unbutton at the end, uncharacteristically for him, and Joyce leaving the set and coming back looks kind of odd. Of course it didn't help that Gene told her to come back here and then you see the top of her head in Charles camera shot. Probably the only one wondering.. Maybe just tired, jet lagged or got hot on set as he would say in MG77.. But anyway, carry on...I was just wondering..
Smoking funny cigarettes.
@@randydellinger2996 I think some might especially since they don't drink
R u insinuating something???🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
He had liver problems. He tried to live a healthy lifestyle but it must've affected him at some point.
As Johnny O so elegantly put it (@15:26 ): "Once again, the artifact of our show... Gene Rayburn."
Idk who that NEW Tom is... 🤔
Before even playing this video. I think that Debbie brighten Richards day like all the pretty contestants do on the show.
Was he single in the years of the CBS and the early PM shows.
Love yea Richard......
As far as I know, Richard was single during this time, yes. He got divorced sometime in the 1960’s and met his future second wife on Family Feud in the early 1980’s. They married around 1990.
OK thanks crissrudd4554.
He had a lot of wife searching darning this show LOL....Same on Family Feud...like you mentioned..
Jody Donovan was in the picture during the mid 70s, including an appearance together on Tattletales.
I think Richard and Jody were split by this point.
Yes he met his wife on ff
I'd never realized that Debralee Scott was such a babe.
Amazing what a new eyeglass prescription will do for ya
🤮
Anybody else get tired of all the "boob" answers ?
that and "tinkle"!
I wouldn't say tired of them so much as used to them.
The panel isn't.
I, for one got so SICK of all these no- brainer questions AGES ago! Thankfully after I'm done this, I won't by watching again for at least a year (maybe even 2 like I did last time).
Seriously, I was surprised they lasted this long with the entire planet knowing the correct responses!
@@vivianhamilton616no
Dawson thinks he’s such a comedian - NOT !!
From forever angels Skyler Engle
Has anyone seen the episode that Betty is talking about at the end of the video at 2:50?

Still no how many times did you spam this?
How come Brett can eat on the show but no one else can?
Brett looks like she just rolled out of bed.
