I loved watching CNR on

Veteran Broadway actor and TV show personality Charles Nelson free download plants vs zombies Reilly, who was known to most as the face of long-running game show Match Game, died of complications from pneumonia over the weekend at the UCLA Medical Center.
From the L.A. Times obit : "Reilly never tried to hide his homosexuality, free download plants vs zombies and frequently cracked double-entendres on television about being gay. He got a job as a night mail boy at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel and tried to get hired by NBC, but a producer told him 'that they don't allow queers on television,' [the director of his one-man show Paul] Linke said. 'Charles' response was, 'It didn't bother me. I knew in my heart his words weren't true,' ' Linke said. Later, Reilly would count how many game show appearances he would make in a week once it was 27 and consider it his revenge."
Here are a few clips in Reilly's honor one features Reilly on an episode of Match Game where he temporarily took over as host from Gene Rayburn. The other is a Match Game reunion. And the third is a trailer for The Life of Reilly , a film version of his one-man show, now playing around the country .
Aw, bad news! I remember him from Match Game and wasn't he on Hollywood Squares, too? He also had a fantastic role on an early episode of The X-files. The role was written free download plants vs zombies with him in mind, i believe, and he played it brilliantly. What a great talent...
RIP Mr, Charles Nelson Reilly, I just loved how he used his whole name! He was a hoot on match game, I would get home from school and it would come on, and I would howl at his jokes, even though at the time, I didn't fully get some of the double entendres he used. Just a funny, humble man, and great role model for young gay men, that you can be out and gay and you and still make it.
I had the unique honor of meeting Mr. Reilly in Chicago when our production needed restaging for 'theater in the round'. He was funny,generous and knew a great deal about the theater. Whenever free download plants vs zombies I think of the Pump Room, I'll think fondly of him.
He was just fantastic as José Chung on one episode each of "The X-Files" and "Millennium." If there are clips of those performances floating around, they would also be fun to see again.
I was a boy in the 70's and triple loved Match Game and his saturday morning show, Lidsville. In fact, for 2 years running I was his character free download plants vs zombies from Lidsville for Halloween and my sister was the geenie. I moved to West Hollywood in my early 20's and would see CNR every once in awhile at the local video store, Video West, renting arm loads of porn - again triple love him!!! I drummed up the nerve once to tell him about my childhood halloween costumes... he loved it.
I LOVED CHARLES! Everything he did was hilarious! And like someone else said, he was out before there was even a word for it. My best friend and I STILL talk about Match Game and act out the "feuds" between Charles and Brett! RIP Charles. We love you!
I remember how on Hollywood Squares he would regale the audience about his weekend boat-trips with his acting students at the time; all the while shamelessly name-dropping the "International Male" brand. If you understood the code, it was remarkable how frank he'd be about his weekend exploits on National TV...with no apologies nor Paul Lynne-style bitter-edges.
He could even be naughty/out without the typical viewer realizing it such as the time, decades ago, he wore a shirt on "Match Game" that read "Bonjour Matelot" which, naturellement, means, "Hi Sailor!"
I loved watching CNR on "The Match Game". Especially his by-play with Brett Somers. Hmmm... maybe they were the original "Will & Grace"?? LOL Reilly had all the wit of Paul Lynde... who could occasional be a bit... well... you know.
