Game Show Encyclopedia: Perfect Match

 

 

 

Perfect Match was an Australian dating game show in the same vein as The Dating Game and Blind Date. It originally aired on Network Ten between 1984 and 1989.

The show featured the same format as The Dating Game and Blind Date, with a contestant determining their "perfect match" by asking specially scripted compatibilty questions of three contestants of the opposite sex hidden behind a screen. Frequently the questions - along with the answers contestants gave - aimed for comedy and were imbued with sly innuendo. After three questions the contestant would choose their preferred partner based on the answers they had given, and they would win the prize of a holiday to be taken together (along with a television crew). After this the true "perfect match", based on responses to interview questions prior to the game, would be revealed, although this would have no affect on the game itself or the awarding of prizes.

Each episode also included a recap of the holiday taken by an earlier couple. The segment included footage of their weekend away, along with edited highlights of video interviews with each individual in isolation after returning home, which would be played to the couple as they were interviewed together in the studio. Sometimes previously unrevealed true feelings would be revealed when the video interviews were replayed.

Perfect Match was hosted by Greg Evans for the first two years. Through an oversight, Channel Ten forgot to renew his contract, so he was signed by Channel Nine who warehoused him. Cameron Daddo replaced him as host of Perfect Match from 1986 to 1987. After Daddo left the series, Evans, whose contract with Nine had expired, returned as host for the final season. The show also featured hostesses Debbie Newsome (1984-85), Tiffany Lamb (1986) and Kerrie Friend (1987-89), along with Dexter - a "robot" who supposedly mathematically calculated the compatibility of the couple.

The Comedy Company's Kylie Mole once appeared on Perfect Match.

Perfect Match is fondly remembered for its gaudy set design and fashions of the period. In 2002 Perfect Match was briefly revived on the Seven Network. It was hosted by Shelley Craft and Agro and lasted only a handful of shows.
