How this season is filed
Gene Rayburn runs a blank-the-blank innuendo circus while Charles Nelson Reilly and Brett Somers treat the panel like a chaotic marriage. Daytime raunch as sport, celebrity chemistry as the real contest. 1970s network television getting tipsy before dinner, and still sharper than modern panel filler.
