...I started watching the past midnight game show channel offerings...and started to realize that...2K8 "game shows" got NOTHING on the games shows of the 70's!!!!!

...sure...you can go for the cool million now...but...back then...it was cool without the million...

...people back then would do or say just about anything for a BENNY!!!!!

...right now...it's a toss up between Match Game '75...or THE GONG SHOW!!!

...Gene Rayburn...Brett Sommers...Richard Dawson and Charles Nelson Riley...VS...Chuck Barris...Jaye P Morgan...the Unknown Comic...and Gene, Gene the Dancing Machine...

...sure they were silly...sure there was alcohol flowing...but I find myself staying awake just to remember how funny and edgy they really were...

...people still remember Gene Gene dancing to "Jumpin' at the Woodside"...who remembers the first winner of Dancing with the Stars!?!?!

...with Survivor...Big Brother...Deal or No Deal...etc...you don't get the excitement of "No Whammies"...or...watching the top of the $25,000 pyramid light up....if you think today's game shows are better...you can kiss my BLANK...cue the Match Game music...

...I don't know...that's just me...

...late...

...DOC...

...ps...we'll be back with more STUFF...after this...

oh what memories....match game '75. those were the really funny game shows. my daily after school routine: sit on the floor at the coffee table, eat a bowl of lucky charms cereal, watch gilligans island and match game.... then homework.

Match Game has to be my all time favorite. Bad as I hate to admit it, I'm a GSN junkie. Nothing recent can compare to the glory days of game shows, but I do like Cash Cab on Discovery Channel (sorry FOX).

...I don't think you could do Match Game today...BUT...it was funny watching stuff like the panel picking on each other...ALL the smoking that went on during the show...Rayburn trying to kiss Jamie Lee Curtis...

...I now go home...grab my BLANK...to turn on the TV for more Match Game '75!!!!
