@Novetrix It was actually partway through the 1978-1979 season.

Newlywed GAME had just ended it's 8 year run a week prior on ABC

I've noticed when watching the shows when Nipsey Russell is on the guest panel, he pretty much always interrupts Gene with one of his quips. Sometimes it's quite annoying.

the end sounded like an applause machine

Let Nipsey do his poem, Gene! )

Has there ever been a contestant who said no to coming back?

@mrmatchgame The newer (relatively) version of Match Game, when they redesigned the set and made the font of the sign more blocked, the numbers were removable and powered by a standard 4-pin connector. I think that change happened in 77.

Dick DeBartolo was also a writer for MAD Magazine.

@mrmatchgame yeah, and then they only got to change it once - but that sign change was the one i remember watching as a child (78 to 79) - however, are you sure they changed the whole sign? I mean, they could easily have edited out the time it took to change the number 74 to 75 - they did have match game pm....perhaps the "Match Game" part was the same, but the suffix was interchangable
Why did they need a whole new sign....they could have just changed the four to a five.

The sign was made of wood etc. and it was design as one huge piece rather then being able to be removed.
When the Producer design the new set and sign they had thought about having removable numbers at the time.
