We present to you an interview with Roger Dobkowitz. Roger was the production assistant, aka Cue Card guy, on Match Game from 1973-1982. He also talks with us about his time as Producer for 36 years on The Price Is Right

Hmmm. I've never really ever watched any of those old American panel comedy shows. Seen some funny clips, though. I remember one from 'Hollywood Squares'------------Gilbert Gottfried was the final square both players needed to win, and neither one could get him. The first round ended up taking the entire show to get through------------eventually Gottfried screaming 'You fool!' at the players every time they answered. The audience was absolutely howling by the end.

^I saw that clip! He was clearly bluffing every time on purpose to make it easy for them, & the contestants took the whole dang half-hour to catch on.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

It's a really funny thing. You don't get that kind of magic in a scripted show---‐--------it takes a stupid game or an interview with Conan and Courtney Thorne-Smith to get there.
