continues to intrigue but then i watched 30 episodes of match game this weekend. what did i learn from that:

richard dawsons goto euphemism for ass was derriere.

half the contestants were cops or the wives of cops who were seemingly all on tranquilizers or only grew up watching marilyn monroe movies.

gene rayburns enthusiasm for charlie chan-like oriental impersonation was already making some panelists uncomfortable in 75.

gary burghoff was sitting in the charles nelson riley spot for all the eps i watched and impersonated him numerous times which was probably not coincidental as he studied acting under riley.
