5:10 OMG Richard Dawson is such a low-key Savage! I love how he called out the Judges stupidity for not knowing a Whale is a Mammal and not a fish while roasting them! XD
Don't know why he is complaining since it was a match, the other times he thought they should have been a match and they didn't match them.. (shakes head..) I don't know the women still beak the Champ even if the judge hadn't match those two..
Whale was not a bad answer. RD was just embarrassed because it was definitely not a match for fish and he wanted to distance himsrlf from the poor decision of the judge.
From one redhead to another, we stumble into the first week of Patti Deutsch. She was predominantly known as a voice actress, and used that nasally voice to great effect in films and television shows. She had an incredibly off-the-wall sense of humour which was reflected in her answers. While she didn't match as much as Fannie Flagg or Betty White, she still matched more than the likes of Dick Martin, Bill Daily or David Doyle. Patti clocked up 42 weeks on the CBS Match Game and one week in syndication. We'd see her husband, comedy writer Donald Ross, on the show the following year, and in 1978 we'd also see Max, her first son. Her passing in July last year at the age of 73 was mourned by the Match Game fandom. Only week of the other debut player, veteran character actor Jim Backus. He'd been the voice of Mr. Magoo (which led to a meeting between him and Marilyn Monroe), he'd been stranded on a desert island with Gilligan, he'd played James Dean's father in Rebel Without a Cause, he'd been in films with Humphrey Bogart, Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn and with all the comedy greats in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. He'd go on to travel back in time to the early 20th century to become mayor of New England coastal town Passamaquaddy when it was visited by an orphan and a funny-looking green dragon. Third week for Game Show Poet Laureate Nipsey Russell and sixth week for Betty White. Now for some technical observations (as pointed out below. Thanks Stupid Game Show Answers 2018 and Sam Mitchell for these!) - this is the first episode of Match Game to have the short end credits on the side of a rotating box. The contestants and panelists have also swapped microphones.
I love the show, but I have to disagree; Patti Deutsch, was a terrible player, worse that Brett. She only cared about coming up with her own funny answers and never showed a care about matching the contestants, you know, the purpose for the game.. giving cute answers had its time, but she never showed any care for helping the contestants.
Regarding Jim Backus, you didn't mention his three seasons of work as the co-star of the Joan Davis sitcom "I Married Joan," seen on NBC from 1952 to 1955.
I still like to know why Patti and Bob Barker, for that matter, were not around to do MGSynd. Bob wasn't on much during the 70's but Patti was and she only did one week of synd. I missed her after that and wish she could have been on more. I am guessing she didn't do MG/HS either..
Ridiculous isn't it? I've seen several episodes where the celebrities word was a match yet the judges say no. Yet this time they accept a mammal as a fish! I also wonder sometime on the super match is they are behind it loading the answers after the contestant chooses a word to determine who wins and how much.
The judges made a mistake matching whale with fish. A whale is not a fish. It's a mammal. Also, they're still vacillating on whether or not to match general with specific.
Gene and the judge let Suzie oust Jane by allowing her to change her ears lowered answered. Ironically Jim's answer that eliminated Suzie was ear also. Suzie made over $6,000 off her one lucky win, so she can't be too upset.
Richard Dawson just has an uncanny knack with the big-money match! It seemed obvious that this contestant (Emmy) had decided before even coming onstage that she would choose Richard if she had the opportunity. Good choice!
Alright! ... Mr. Magoo!!! Look for Backus' comedy track from the late 50s - 'Delicious (The Laughing Song)' on YT; is great! "Every night we're going to do this!!! Hahahaha"
Nipsey, Richard and Betty are indeed that question's league of decency; it is a bit of a litmus test of one's sensibility: 'shot' or 'fed' - destroy or nurture. "Turpentine and dandelion wine I've turned the corner an' I'm doin' fine. Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line, Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine. Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head. Going higher and higher till I'm dead."
ROFL! Another fine episode! :0) ROFL! Love ya Gene! ;O) ROFL! Love ya Patti! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Betty! ;0) doctor.. Love the voices Gene.. ;0) cals.. ;0) See I thought he might be having problems with sleeping losing 3-4 hours of time every two weeks. But I have never travel across country so I don’t know what it would do.. ;0) Hang in there Gene.. ;0)
As a game designer myself, it REALLY aggravates me that they never seem to figure out their own rules on whether a general guess by the contestant matches specific answers by the panel. So many guests were shafted in this way - especially in these early shows. Of COURSE Emmy got 6 in the first round when they were in "general matching specific mode" AND they considered a whale as a fish - SO dumb.
Patti's the new girl at school, so she smiles broadly. Later, she's the surly teenager who smokes behind the gym, so she uses that weird emotionless gaze.
Yea she does, but even SHE doesn't mismatch on purpose. To lose the game for a contestant would be unforgivable. They'd never have them back on the show!
Grabielle-Rick, round 1, question B: "He said, 'I dream I'm an ABLE-BODIED SEAMAN,' and the doctor said, 'You *are* dreaming.'" (Bzzt!) Question A: (looking suitably shocked) "Good night…" (then, with a grin) "MILKMAN's on his way." (Ding!) Round 2, question A: (who knows, but we'd presumably have to have one) Question B: (lay out) Super Match, part 1: (if asked before Richard) FOOL (if asked between Richard and Betty) SHOWERS (if asked after Betty) COME SHE WILL Part 2: GANG Rick-Williams, round 1, question B: "Since she's a music teacher, I figured she'd know 'Alouette', so I said PLUMAIT (PLUCKED)." (Bzzt!) Question A: "Him chase TAIL, and get your barbarian minds out of gutter." (Bzzt!)
Why does brett sommers have to be so mean and hatefull every show. Really back fired on her here it is 50 years later and everybody can see what a bitch she was.
I feel like they both were sort of alpha and Richard definitely wanted to have his own show. However, sometimes it feels like Richard has a little crush on Gene?
They worked well together. Richard knew when to lay out and when to jump in. Gene knew how to set up a straight line so Richard could take the joke. I thought they had great chemistry together.
I wish Betty White and Fannie Flag could have been regulars🤪😘💖 Love them
Yay, Jim Bakkus! (Thurston Howell, III, on Gilligan's Island and also Mr. Magoo)

If you thought that was something, he was level 100 savage during the school Riot episode.
Don't know why he is complaining since it was a match, the other times he thought they should have been a match and they didn't match them.. (shakes head..) I don't know the women still beak the Champ even if the judge hadn't match those two..
@@geneburn5769 He wasn't complaining. He was calling them out on something that they should have known.
Whale was not a bad answer. RD was just embarrassed because it was definitely not a match for fish and he wanted to distance himsrlf from the poor decision of the judge.
In later episodes they decide not to match the two if I remember correctly.
I love Emmys outfit. I would wear it today.
Luv Nipsy Russell's sense of humor, seemed to be ahead of his time!
Agree with you diverbob33 May he RIP
Nipsy was a comedy genius.
Dudes a hero
His out of nowhere short little poems he'd throw out during the episodes were great.
Nipsey was funny and smart! A dynamite combination!
16:56 Richard almost made me choke on my pancake!

she started on the bimbo seat, and then moved into being a regular panelist. Yep Patti, gameshows and voice work.

@@sailorbychoice1 She did match 68 times according to my tracking of most of MG73, MG79, MGSynd ad MGPM.
She looked like Joanie from happy days in the other episode, here she reminds me more of Monica Lewinski. The hair against the smile
Yet on other episodes, beer isn't accepted as booze!
Ridiculous isn't it? I've seen several episodes where the celebrities word was a match yet the judges say no. Yet this time they accept a mammal as a fish! I also wonder sometime on the super match is they are behind it loading the answers after the contestant chooses a word to determine who wins and how much.
But Suzie won unfairly in the last episode so this was karma,
Going to miss Patti, that fiery red hair, beautiful smile, dopey eyes, and off-color humor.
The judges made a mistake matching whale with fish. A whale is not a fish. It's a mammal. Also, they're still vacillating on whether or not to match general with specific.

Well he is about 25 percent at this early time of the show this season so far..
Had. He's dead.
Richard and his polka dots again! Love his tie.
A Whale is not a fish, it's a mammal.
Rayburn : You got a cure for insomnia ? Dawson : Get plenty of sleep . 😄
Alright! ... Mr. Magoo!!!
Look for Backus' comedy track from the late 50s - 'Delicious (The Laughing Song)' on YT; is great! "Every night we're going to do this!!! Hahahaha"
"Har-Har...by GEORGE" !!!.........
I'm suffering from CNR withdrawal!
Just 5 more weeks and he will be a regular on the show if you are still around.. ;0)
16:00. thank you nipsey.
The judges phucked this one up. Whale should not have qualified as fish!
Richard said the same thing I did, a whale is a mammal not a fish but whatever!
Richard was right on target. Whale is a mammal, not a fish.
Patti was such a sweet girl..
Yes, she's a honey and a hoot. I love her laugh, her little chuckle. Noticed, she hasn't started out with the stoneface schtick, yet.
Stellar Jay - yes, she seemed a lot more friendly here.
@@XXthekingofyouXX Her "imaginative" answers cost contestants a lot of wins over the seasons, though. Quite annoying, actually.
@@scdevon Thank you. I personally loathed her.
I loathed her, too.
I'M SURPRISED that during the school riot that richard didn't say " you'll accept a whale as a fish but not a school"
Now the words shot and killed are the same?
Patti's debut episode!!
Why do the contestants give the names of their kids, but rarely their spouses?
Did brett somers live in that show??
Yeah and it's the first year of MatchGame and I wish she'd leave already
Brett was the most annoying drunk on that show. Ha ah ah ah ah - that laugh. Ugh !!
I think Betty White is the only one in the panel still living
@Jangler333 ... Fanny did not appear on this episode. And yes, she's still alive.
not anymore
sweet & beautiful lady… Rest In Peace Betty.

is that bretts real hair or is she wearing a wig like in later episodes?
She always wore wigs. There was a week or two later on where she didn't, and a point was made of mentioning it.
Was this early episode of MG 73 taped recently off Comedy Gold?
Anders Updale Yes

I would have answered “boat” for the first question
Match game 73
Whales are mammals, not fish! LOL
Jungle Drums yep, just exactly what I said. seems they were still feeling their way in Match 73.
The judges probably just decided to generalize all sea animals .
@@770WT They always genialize on these questions. I can't BELIEVE how sensitive everyone is about that. WOOOOW
@@kristabrewer6736 Everyone but YOU. What does that tell YOU?
Brett must have a been a Regular at this point?
Why wasn't Betty?
Betty I guess always too busy to be a regular on this 1 show.

She never shuts that diahrea of a mouth. Always has to have the camera on her.
Duct tape for randy for the complaining and whining and cleaning out the sand out of his vag
Patty Deutsch would've been a good regular in the upper teer instead Brett. Big mistake for choosing Brett instead of Patti.
20:25 Poor Gene, losing 4 hours flying from Mass to Ca every two weeks and Richard is no help.. I thought Gene looked tired in the recent episodes..
Richard is no help? What show are you watching? He's the most intelligent one on the program.

chase "tail"

My goodness, these people are all dead now, except maybe the contestants…
