USMA on Jeopardy 3/2/06

<p>Hehehe. My mom (84 years old) watches reruns of Matchgame and Hollywood Squares. If there’s anything more useless than a game show, it’s a 40 year old rerun of a game show! </p>

<p>Fast forward 40 years… <spider’s children=“” complain=“” about=“” grandma=“” spidermom=“” watching=“” reruns=“” of=“” “24”…how=“” pitiful!?=“”></spider’s></p>

<p>HEYYYYY!
I watched Matchgame back in the mid seventies!!!</p>

<p>Remember Gene Rayburn (?) with that silly mike on a stick?! LOL</p>

<p>Yup!!! He had VERY WIDE TIES!</p>

<p>Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly, Richard Dawson, Betty White, Fannie Flagg, gotta love it. Yeah, I watched it, too. But not the reruns!</p>

<p>never heard of him, never heard of him, never heard of him, never heard of her, annnnnnd never heard of her.</p>

<p>Charles Nelson Reilly!!! Alec Baldwin played him during one of the greatest Saturday Night Live skits that Will Ferrel ever starred in: “Inside The Actors Guild with James Lipton”. If you think Matchgame was good, this will blow your frickin’ socks off. Then again, I have a strange sense of humor, so maybe it will just retract from your opinion of me. Oh well, see it anyway. It’s on the first “Best of Will Ferrel” DVD.</p>

<p>twin_b,</p>

<p>I’ve been watching Jeopardy since I was a kid. At that time Art Fleming was the host and I think Don Pardo was the announcer. The show was a lot harder back in the day. I have to admit that I still love it and there is no way you will ever get me to watch The Price is Right or have a Bob Barker poster. (If anyone wants, we can start talking about a life-size Harm poster again. That seemed to bring most of the moms out of their shells. :wink: )</p>

<p>envee,</p>

<p>My civilian daughter (that would be twin_a) just bought the “Best of Will Ferrell” as a birthday present for my son. You’re right, that’s a great skit.</p>

<p>michaelburt, you young 'un! I want to be a fly on the wall some day when you are reminiscing (SP?) with your kids… </p>

<p>I guess I’m gettin’ old.</p>

<p>hahaha, so true</p>

<p>momoftwins,</p>

<p>I have never heard those names before in my life. Are you sure the memory’s still working okay? :P</p>

<p>Ooh, a life-size Harm poster sounds kind of nice…</p>

<p>Memory? Working just fine, thank you very much. I think.</p>

<p>Although for some reason you still get my name confused with that crazy twin_a out there… ;)</p>
