Match Game, which was the most watched daytime show for four years straight, was—as Charles Nelson Reilly once said—less of a game show and more of a social engagement. IT BEGAN IN A CONFERENCE ROOM. Thus, The Match Game was born. ITS EARLY TECHNOLOGY LEFT SOMETHING TO BE DESIRED. Dick DeBartolo was a Match Game question writer, and a freelance writer for MAD Magazine. DeBartolo had a suggestion: why not put a silly, MAD sort of twist on their questions? THE SHOW HAD SOME A-LIST CELEBRITY FANS. The Match Game was taped in New York, so actors who were working on Broadway could easily slip away to tape a few shows on their days off. When the revamped version of Match Game came back to the airwaves in the summer of 1973 the original version went off the air in 1969 , it had a bigger set, a bigger selection of celebrities, and bigger cash prizes. Executive producer Mark Goodson preferred it that way; when it came to his game shows, he was very rigid about rules and procedure. SOME WORDS WERE FORBIDDEN. Director Ira Skutch stormed over to her when they cut the tape and advised her that this was her first and only warning. The show was still finding its feet during the first few weeks of its return and had a revolving, disparate cast of celebrity panelists. The gravelly voiced actress with the oversized glasses turned out to be a perfect fit for the show and became one of the three regular panelists. He became the third permanent panelist. THE SEATING CHART WAS CAREFULLY PLANNED. Somers and Reilly occupied the middle and end chairs of the top tier, and Dawson was stationed in the center chair, bottom row. The remaining spots were filled by a variety of different celebrities, some of whom appeared almost semi-regularly. The first seat on the top row was reserved for a comedian or sitcom star, preferably a male. THE EPISODES WERE FILMED MARATHON-STYLE, OVER A SINGLE WEEKEND. No wonder the panelists often as their answers grew more outrageous—they frequently were. Rayburn lived on Cape Cod, Massachusetts and flew to Los Angeles every two weeks on Friday, and then the cast and crew proceeded to tape 12 shows over the weekend. With such an exhaustive schedule, the panelists and host tended to imbibe a bit during the lunch break … and the dinner break. Depending upon what time of day the episode was taped, the Styrofoam cup a cast member was seen sipping from was frequently filled with vodka instead of water. Despite his onscreen demeanor, however, Dawson did not indulge; his beverage of choice was always coffee. THE PANELISTS ONCE PROTESTED AN ANSWER. Despite all their wacky hijinks, the panelists still kept in mind that their goal was to try and win some money for the civilian contestants. Of course, today such anarchy would have been edited out prior to broadcast, but it was this type of spontaneity that kept viewers tuning in. SOME CONTESTANTS WENT ON TO BECOME CELEBRITIES. She appeared as a celebrity panelist three years later, the only civilian to do so. In 1979 she won some big bucks and an approving leer from Rayburn as a Match Game contestant.
