This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Charles Nelson Reilly makes me think of Paul Lynde on Hollywood Squares. And I always think of Paul Lynde on Hollywood Squares answeing a question with "Balaaaaam's aaaasssss."

Match Game was such a dirty little game show. When I catch it every now and again on GSN, I cannot believe how it courted the smarm. Smart, funny smarm, but smarm nonetheless.
And funktastic 70's music. I'm just gonna keep saying funktastic all day because now it's stuck in my head. Funktastic, funktastic. This will make for an interesting meeting in about 15 minutes.

Now I'm saying funktastic too, kat. And I'm humming Maceo Parker. Thanks!

Match Game was such a dirty little game show.
It really was. I can't believe I watched it at such a tender age. My poor little childlike brain just filled right up with double entendres.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We captioned the whole run of that and all the caption editors LOVED working on it and were always calling people over to watch a particularly mind-blowing exchange.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I also watched Match Game as a youth. ("And now we move on to Patti Deutsch." "Upper frontals.")

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's true.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I liked Match Game a lot, but I think that every double-entendre flew over my little head.
Also, I didn't get that Batman (the TV series) was supposed to be funny....

I caught an ep of Match Game on GSN recently, and one of the contestants was a very young Kirstie Alley! She got to the final spin (it was one of the later season, which had the big wheel determining the amount of the bonus prize), but didn't match up with the celebrity she chose.
And, yes, it was a dirty show that totally encouraged the brain to think in perverse ways. Very educational!
