The Second TBS Saw The 'Match Game' Pilot, They Threw It Right On The Pile Marked...Blank [Game Shows]

If you are one of the millions of Match Game fans who long to return to those halcyon days when life was a breezy '70s cocktail-party-cum-game show—a double-tiered ping pong match of witty innuendo deftly presided over by a comforting, avuncular presence—well, then TBS's proposed update might let you down. If, however, you'd like to see Sarah Silverman respond to the set-up, "Melodical Murray is a human musical instrument; he makes music by blowing his...blank," with the answer, "BIG BLACK COCK"—then maybe this show is for you! Is Sarah Silverman the new Brett Somers? Could Norm MacDonald be the next Richard Dawson? The comedians have signed on to be on the panel for TBS' updated "Match Game" pilot, shot this week in Los Angeles. Also taking seats are Super Dave Osborne (Bob Einstein), Kids in the Hall trouper Scott Thompson, Rashida Jones ("The Office") and Niecy Nash ("Reno 911!"). Andrew Daly ("Semi-Pro") is serving as host for the pilot, which is being executive produced by Robert Smigel of "Saturday Night Live" and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog fame. While it's just a pilot for now, this dream cast—seriously: Thompson, Silverman, Super Dave, Rashida Jones and this crazy bitch, filling in the blanks to questions overseen by Triumph's brain—suggests to us TBS won't just pick it up to series, but that they likely have a hit on their hands. And while Charles Nelson Reilly, the show's contradictory Patron Saint of Crabby Bon-Vivantism, once famously griped, "You can't do anything else once you do game shows. You have no career," we have a funny feeling he and Brett Somers were smiling down upon the proceedings, holding up their own cue-cards reading "MAKING WHOOPIE" from the big Match Game set in the sky.
