Post by: patrickm on May 17, 2011, 02:46:11 PM
For those of you who get the Game Show Network (GSN), Kate Jackson's week of Match Game episodes from 1975 should air starting tomorrow May 18th. GSN currently airs double episodes twice a day - but her episodes are in the 1st pairing - the 2nd pair are in a different rotation. Her 1st episode should be 8:30 am EDT tomorrow - with the remaining episodes airing 8-9 am EDT on Thursday and Friday the 19th and 20th.

The Match Game is about the only decent show on The Game Show Network. 

I suppose that Kate Jackson was probably the only Dark Shadows alum to appear on that memorable and very funny game show.

PS Did you ever catch that classic Match Game episode, when a young guy (maybe about 35-years-old and having complete male pattern baldness on the top of his head), had just lost and was about to be "rolled-off" the set, when the always irrepressible Charles Nelson Reilly, shouted from the upper-tier of the celebrity panelists' seats, "Wait a minute!"?

With that, Mr. Reilly walked very calmly and leisurely over to where the young guy was still sitting and then took off his own "squirrel," placed it on top of the young guy's formerly hairless head, and declared: "There, you look ten years younger now!" as Gene Rayburn, Brett Somers, Richard Dawson, the other celebrities, and everyone else in the studio audience broke out into uproarious laughter!   [ghost_grin] [ghost_cheesy]

Kate Jackson did a ton of different game shows during the years she was on The Rookies. She was even on Celebrity Bowling with her then boyfriend, Edward Albert, with whom she starred in Killer Bees and Death Cruise.
