They didn't get much done during a typical half hour show - maybe answer 4 questions plus a bonus round. But this version of the Match Game was so popular because it was so funny.
Why does GSN have to ruin classic games shows with that stupid "chain reaction" pop up? When this show originaly aired there was no such thing as promo pop ups.
It is rather interesting to note that Episode #551 was the first and last time Gene wore this ensemble on the show. I don't believe that applies to any of his other suits, jackets, vests, or - for that matter - ties; all of these were used twice at the least.
I think Gene looked kind of embarrassed as walked up towards the panel with one shoe on and the other off and was barefooted , because was blushing . Noticed how Gene was trying hide his bare foot ?
Hey what happen to Gene's shoes & socks , was he trying compete with Charles or did Gene have special Date with someone , or maybe he just wanted to dress casual that day ?
He gave his socks to a woman in the audience during the commercial. She caught a glimpse of them when Betty White raised Gene's pants leg, and she just had to have them!

I remember this edisode very well. I've had a life long foot fetish & was excited by it. This was an early clue, good grief!

Ah, the good ol' days of Match Game, when Richard Dawson actually "participated".

Give it about another year until FAMILY FEUD started. '76 he was still into it, '77 he had his good days, '78 he was more like "Get me outta here!"

I think I know what really happened (go to 0:42):
Gene models a lovely pair of socks in front of Contestant's Row. Lady from Coronado bids $1 and wins Gene's socks! :)
