*laughter*

Patti Deutch*: Has Betty seen John's ______?

Richard: If you've seen one, you've seen 'em all.

* = Patti Deutch sounds more like Debralee Scott to me. [/quote]
Not Debralee Scott -- it's Jaye P. \"Morgoan\".

Here's the facts on the commercial...

It was based on a question asked on Episode 14 of \"Match Game '73\", with the panel consisting of Bert Convy, Jaye P. Morgan, CNR, Brett Somers, Richard Dawson, and Betty White.

After Gene asks the question, Jaye P. asks, \"Has John seen Mary's _____\"? (In the cartoon \"Patti\" asks this, when at this time she was still weeks away from her first week.) Then Brett starts her spiel, much of which (including her trademark \"What was the question?\") was edited out of the commercial, and then Richard says, \"Seen one, seen 'em all.\"

I think the Joyce on the panel on the cartoon is supposed to represent Joyce Bulifant rather than Dr. Joyce Brothers.

Hiroland:
I love the illustration look on it, but I dont like how GSN doesnt say it is Match Game's THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY! Isnt that the reason it is being shown?

cmjb13:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the commercial does mention the 30th Anniversary.

uncamark:
And of course the presence of John and Mary is a dead giveaway that the soundtrack was taken from an early \"MG'73,\" when those two standbys of 60s \"MG\" questions were still making daily appearances.

Not to mention the brevity of the question.
