Default Bonnie Franklin on Match Game

I saw Bonnie Franklin on a Match Game '76 rerun on Buzzr today. She was in the "hot chick" spot, to Richard Dawson's right.

In 1976, Bonnie Franklin definitely belonged in the "hot chick" seat on Match Game because in those days she had the longer hair and was super cute looking.

Debralee Scott also made appearances on Match Game, she was pretty hot looking too back in the day.

Patti Deutsch is another one, she was on Match Game also and was rather hot looking in her own unique way. Sexy overbite, and the long, straight hairstyle she wore in those days, I found her attractive too.

I liked Patti Deutsch too. She was attractive, and I liked her voice and funny, interesting answers which rarely matched the contestants. I am unfamiliar with her career aside from MG.

She was always in the "funny girl" spot to Richard's left...though any of the usual in that chair: Patti, Betty White, Joyce Bulifant, Fannie Flagg, Marcia Wallace, could have also qualified for the "hot chick" position.

I had forgot about Fannie Flagg, she was attractive looking too. Joyce Bulifant also. You Tube has 1970's era Match Game episodes on line for viewing.

Hot and Bonnie Franklin do not belong in the same sentence.

She wasn't in the same league as for example, Farrah Fawcett, but Bonnie Franklin was very cute when she had the longer hairstyle. She lost much of her sex appeal after she changed to the short hairstyle. Short hair looks good on some women, Bonnie Franklin wasn't one of them.

If I recall correctly, Elaine Joyce also appeared on Match Game in the 1970's. She was hot looking also, quite sexy , she was married to Bobby Van at the time.

I wish I got Buzzr. I would trade Cozi for it.

Do you know what year VB was on the original MG? Unfortunately Buzzr seems to prefer some years more than others, though they are getting better in their choice of runs.

Technically it was Match Game PM, which IMDB puts her on in 1978.

If you haven't seen it yet there's a promo with her in here. Starts at the minute mark

Ed Asner in Richard's spot? Wow! But I do totally remember that ABC/channel 7 silvery logo....cutting edge fx technology for the day!

Will Buzzr start to show MG PM? It must be in the library of Goodson/Todman productions!

They are both pretty in their own way.

In the One Day At A Time scheme of things, for me, seasons 1-3 are the Ann seasons. After that, Ann loses appeal with the short hair and seasons 4-9 are the Barbara seasons.

LOL, interesting expression on Bonnie Franklin's face in this picture. It looks to me like she has sex on her mind, like she's in need of some action. Hot damn. Back in the day when she had this hairstyle I would gladly have satisfied her desires, make no mistake about it.
