For Brett Summers it wasn't so amusing!

5. The cast of Match Game were national treasures!
and Nixon and his gang of thugs were filthy toads.

Gene Rayburn + Bret Sommers + Charles Nelson Reilly + Richard Dawson = Comic Gold!

6. Richard Dawson always knew the best answers.

He was the man to pick going into the bonus round.

7. I hear you. I'm Still Pissed at Crest for....
those stupid commercials they ran in the late 60's through the 70's. "Daddy, daddy, look no cavities." Went on for over 10 years. Have not bought Crest Toothpaste in over $35 years and never will buy Crest again....My teeth would rot before I bought Crest.

12. I remember that!
As a twelve-year-old I was pissed at all the Watergate hearings(televised on ALL the networks)during the summer of '74. That happened to be a particularly rainy summer in Mississippi so we had nothing left to do but watch TV.

Even at twelve I knew Nixon was scum, unlike my parents.
