Match Game's Brett Somers ___ at the age of 83

[jvowles]

If you answered "dead", you have a match.

This saddens me. I love the classic Gene Rayburn era Match Game, with its happy drunken B-list celebs.

For those wondering about the fate of the regulars on that show:

Gene Rayburn - RIP
Johnny Olson - RIP

Brett Somers - RIP
Charles Nelson Reilly - RIP
Richard Dawson - still goin'

Betty White - still kickin' it and feisty
Gary Burghoff - still goin', but a bit balder
Fanny Flagg - still goin'
