Was half-expecting a classic Match Game clip starting with "Hairy Harry is so hairy..." Joking aside, this had to be at least one of the stupidest "judgment coming down from on high" (this is making me wonder if that actually meant that the producers were high on something when they made the "judgment") in game show history.
While legally both Marcia and the judges are right, it really all depends on interpretation. Yes the words can be different both phonologically and phonetically, however, they are two or three different ways of pronouncing it. Ergo, I side with Marcia. Its just like the pronunciation of economics
GSN should start airing blocks with a different classic game show each night (including weekends). Here's my schedule:
Monday: Match Game (Rayburn)
Tuesday: Password (Plus & Super)
Wednesday: Card Sharks (Perry & Eubanks)
Thursday: Pyramid ($25,000 & $100,000)
Friday: Family Feud (Dawson & Combs)
Saturday: The Newlywed Game (Eubanks) & The Dating Game (Lange)
Sunday: The Joker's Wild (Barry/Cullen) & Tic-Tac-Dough (Martindale/Caldwell)

Just from that 'ha!', you know that's the voice of Edna Krabappel.

who gives a hairry crap? this, to me, but not to the contestant, is about as useful as tits on a boar hog.

I wish GSN would show this again instead of countless rebroadcasts of Deal or No Deal and 1 vs 100 with Bob Saget
