I’d love to see the same show that their “Rush and Molloy Spy” saw…this story is pure bunk and makes the show sound incredibly offensive and mean spirited, when in fact, it was an insane fun goof around. The article in question is best summed up by a commenter named “Chumgrinder”

“You had a “spy” at a show that was open to the public, with press invited and photographers everywhere? I was at the show in question, and this story is wildly inaccurate. The show was a parody of the game show “Match Game” with a panel of over 20 improvisers playing different stars of the 70’s as well as today. Heath Ledger was indeed represented, played by for SNL alum Horatio Sanz. There was no one playing Bernie Mac, though his death was mentioned. They were onstage the entire time with Brooke, who I was a few feet away from in the audience. She was laughing and enjoying it throughout. When a mock fight and beer spilling broke out Brooke backed up, seemingly to prevent from getting soaked in beer. She did not seem “freaked out” nor did i see her “eyes well up”. I saw her laughing throughout, as she stood next to Bill Haders wife who was playing a Charlies Angel.”

ALSO and most importantly how come no one mentioned that we accused Match Game Host Gene Rayburn of being a Rapist.

And why didn’t it mention Horatio lighting a sulfer/smoke bomb in a basement theatre.  If anything, that would be what made Brooke’s eyes well up.
