Brett is terrible

I love the Match Game and watch it every time it is on. However, it would be the perfect show if Brett had never been on. The Top 10 reasons she should have been removed.
1.She is ugly as homemade sin
2.That smoking causes her to look ugly and sound even worse.
3.She is so dumb, she has to look at her answer for a minute when she is called on just 10 seconds after she has written it down and turned it over.
4.She has to use 2 hands to put her card up. Is it that heavy?
5.She talks all during the time they answer, and it is never funny.
6.She always talks down to the beautiful women on the show. I want to see them not hear or see her.
7.She only got the job because they wanted her husband, Jack Clugman
8.She folds her answer card for minutes after she doesnt match, just put it in the slot already.
9.Betty White is a legend, you are not, she doesnt even deserve to be on the same stage.
10.Did I say she is is homely?

The more I watch the show, the more irritating she is becoming.

Well don't like to down anyone but never could figure out why she was on the show till I read about her husband. Not the first case of nepotism in show business for sure. I used to not like how she always made a big deal about anything she said or did - a reaction to being surrounded by real show biz folk - and yes I know she played in some tv shows as guests. Other than that she was a minor annoyance.

Plus the running gag seemed to be she was a bit tipsy on the show.

The one time I wanted to kill Brett was when she reacted indignantly to the fact that on the Audience Match for BLANK "Jackson" the $500 answer was "Reggie" and I had to listen to her going on and on with a "Who the hell is that?" and upbraiding the audience. The ignorance of the panelists, even the male ones about sports in general was the one thing about the show that could really be infuriating, especially when I recall how it was just the opposite on the 50s NY panel shows like "What's My Line?" where even Arlene Francis and Dorothy Kilgallen knew who the famous ballplayers were (and you would have male panelists who were sports fanatics).

I actually liked Bret. I think alot of times she tried too hard to be funny but she was the perfect antagonist for Charles especially. As far as her looks go I think age just caught up with her but I never would have called her ugly. She was actually quite pretty the first couple seasons in my opinion in a Mrs. Robinson kind of way. I certainly wouldn't kicked her out of a warm bed.

Did you see what Charles nelson Riley looked like? Why is it only women have to be eye candy?

She was a average looking middle aged woman, probably your mom looks worse or no better.

This was a game show, not a leading romantic lead.

I don't know if they had botox then but she didn't go dye her hair, put in fake boobs, and get a face lift, she was a human doing her thing. Not everyone wants to do that. She was a older lady.

And than you probably get mad she insulted the other ladies, but you insult her and I am sure other people, are you a 10? no.

Well I agree about most of your comments. But they had several annoying celeb’s on that show.
