I saw that in this morning's fish wrap. I sure thought he was older than 76. The game show network on cable shows old Match Game shows and he sure was a hoot then and it's fun to watch him cut it up with the regulars on that show.

I thought he was older than that too. I like watching him on those old game shows too.

Exactly what I was going to say. He was funny, but only 76? Really? Wow.

This is how I remember him on The Match Game. I liked him so much I got my parents to buy me the board game and I pretended that I was him when playing.

R.I.P Charles.
