Well there goes the last chance of gameshows being worth watching again. He was the best reason for $20,000 Pyramid and Hollywood Squares to exist.

Fitting tribute.
I remember him from the variety and game shows of the '60's and '70's. Sweet man.

Don Adams. Nipsey.
That's two. Who will be the third?
Hope it's not Matlock . . .

A very funny and classy guy. I saw him perform about 5 years ago in one of the last of the Borscht-Belt hotels, the Concord. He didn't have to use a single foul word to keep the audience rolling and he could reel off funny quips in Yiddish too. Apparently, he hung around with enough of the old vaudeville crowd to pick up a good amount of Yiddish.
RIP

I remember Matchgame. What I remember most was that for a while there were so many gameshows with celebrities on them and it seemed Nipsy was doing them in a rotation and you almost never had to go a day without one of his poems. I remember doing the Monday hunt, checking the first 2 minutes of every gameshow to see who had Nipsey. Too bad he's from before the day of the ubiquitous desk calendar.

Match Game is hands down the best game show of all time. Silly, stupid, making fun of contestants for stupid answers, innuendo galore, etc... what else could you ask for?
