Often OUTlandish and OUT there, this guy pushed the envelope for us. I'm pleased that this part got publicized:

(AP) LOS ANGELES Charles Nelson Reilly, the Tony Award winner who later became known for his ribald appearances on the "Tonight Show" and various game shows, has died. He was 76.

Reilly died Friday in Los Angeles of complications from pneumonia, his partner, Patrick Hughes, told the New York Times.

One of the more creative shows. I still tune in once in awhile, but I didn't know he was gay. Looking back though...

Family Guy had a good gag of Match game:

Chris is sat watching this classic 1970s game show. The host, Gene Rayburn says to the panelists,

"Forgetful Freddy is SO forgetful, that he drew a blank"
