One night, I was flipping the channels when I had come upon this beauty on a little known station known as "The Game Show Network" - reruns of this show: "Match Game 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, and beyond!!!!!" LOL The host is Gene Rayburn, who liked to wear his suits, plaid or plain!!!!! Some of the most well known celebrities to play along are Brett Somers, and my favorite: Richard Dawson, who would later on host the other CBS game show "Family Feud!!!!!"
Anyways, there are two contestants, preferably from Southern California, who make a selection of one of two cards in two rounds. The questions are often funny; since this was 70s TV, this pushed the envelope at the time. When we always get to those "blanks," it's funny!!!!! I also like how female contestants kiss Richard if the $500 Supermatch question is correct. This is also a wonderful game to play at home or at a party; it's fun AND good for your brain!!!!! (I try to watch this every weekday night, BTW.)
I was also surprised at how this came to be the best game show of all time by GSN, thanks to the "50 Greatest Game Shows of All Time." I just happened to find this show; I ended up liking it ala "Wheel of Fortune," and I wouldn't think I have just found the best game show ever!!!!! Yes, people, I have seen the light...from my television screen.
"Match Game" is the best show ever!!!!! Watch it nightly; certainly no "Disney Channel Originals" garbage here!!!!!
10/10
