Title: MG PM Season 1
Post by: melman1 on May 15, 2004, 04:25:47 PM
The final show of MGPM aired last night (Fri. 5/14).  So for those who may care, the first MGPM (1975-76) will probably air tonight.

 They haven't showed the "Burns And Cuts" episode for quite some time. Thank goodness I cut a VHS tape of it from 1999 and saved it to this day!

 Depends on your definition of "quite some time."  I'm pretty sure it aired during the last cycle of shows (maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't see it in its original run so I wouldn't remember it any other way except via GSN's reruns).

Or am I confusing that with the Admiral Color TV episode?  :)

I think you're confusing the two episodes. They haven't shown the Burns & Cuts episode for several runs thru the series now =( But they should get to the Admiral Color TV one before PM gets it's rest =)

 "Burns & Cuts" was skipped during the MGPM runs that began in September 2003, and in November 2003.  The episode guide says that it's been skipped "several times".

I picked it up in a trade, it just wasn't that big a deal.

 You probably remember the incident itself from a "Match Game Moment", a GSN plug during commercial breaks, which ran it quite a few times.

What exactly was the "Burns & Cuts" episode?

 That was an episode where Richard gave "Cuts" as a Super Match response to "Burns and_______."  Gene ridiculed him for what he considered an absurd answer, but it was indeed up there.
