I'd expect a tribute of some kind on GSN. She was always good for an off-color quip and could hold her own against the likes of Charles Nelson Reilly. That couldn't have been easy.

Hopefully Brett, Charles, and Gene are making fun of Dumb Dora together somewhere. | Roy.

| #5 Posted on 17.9.07 1925.00 | Instant Rating: 5.41 | | Brett Somers reminded me of my grandmother - voice, appearance, personality, everything. It amused me when I was a kid and made watching the reruns extremely bittersweet since her passing in 2000. This news therefore makes me sad on a very unique level. | StaggerLee

EDIT: I just realized, she was only 83? That means she was in her early 50s on Matchgame? Good lord she looked in her late 60s back then.
