I made some Homestyle CNR RIP ribbons that I gave out to various Match Game types like Doug, Leigh Ann, Me, Andy and Bob.

It was a sad day. The next time we do it, we must call it the Charles Nelson Reilly Memorial Rated-R Match Game After Dark

Charles Nelson Reilly is one of the reasons that Match Game is still watched and on TV. May our comedy be as good as his just once in our lives.

What Charlie Weaver and Paul Lynde were to Hollywood Squares, Charles Nelson Reilly was to Match Game.

It's sad that there aren't many from that era or those sensibilities with us anymore.
