He and Christopher Lee share my birthday, not the year of course-I'm not that old-5/27. There character's might've been creepy, but I doubt if they were. Pete Lorre once told Spike Jones, " You do to music what I do to people " Lorre was once married to the lady who played T'Pau on "Star Trek".
Russell Johnson flew 44 combat missions as a B-25 bombardier in WW2. His plane was shot down and he broke both ankles in the crash. He received numerous awards for his service. The greatest generation.
I always love her and was my biggest crush as a kid. Such a wonderful and kind hearted people. I took it hard when she passed 😔😔💔 As well as Olivia Newton John! 💔😭
I ate at Mr Hales restaurant in California for my birthday in 198l0s and he found out I was a big Gilligan's Island fan and he let my family have a free meal along with mine for my birthday. He actually brought our food out to us. I was so speechless.. He was an amazing man and host..
I heard Alan was NOTHING like The Skipper or Archie Bunker who were loud and angry. I heard the opposite, Alan Hale Jr. was a sweet teddy bear of a human being. @@rkam278
Thanks for sharing. He and his dad were amazing actors. You can just tell the Hale's were kind people not to mention the others pictured in this video. Thanks for posting.
Vincent did lots of suspense type thriller movies, but I loved it when he did comedy! It was so easy for him. As Moses once said to him "Then, kill me master butcher"! Of course, that wasn't a comedy, but I wish Vincent would have done more comedies!
Alan Hale Jr. used to shop at the same supermarket (Ralph's) where I shopped in the late 80s in Hollywood. He continued to wear his Skipper hat. He always had a smile on his face and would talk to anybody. Great guy.
I ran like the wind home after school to catch it from the very start everyday! (reruns, but new to me); if I was quick enough, I got I Dream of Jeannie first
Family Feud was the perfect game show! Richard Dawson was the perfect host! These original Feud shows are timeless and will entertain forever! Thanks for posting!
RIP Adam, Yvonne, Vincent, Alan, Jim, Natalie, Russell, and the newest star in the heavens as of three days ago, Dawn. You are all missed. Thanks for being a huge part of my youth and for making sure you have never been out of syndication so many more generations can see you and enjoy your adventures.
Absolutely agree-watched these shows during my childhood and always enjoyed them--to all those who have since passed away RIP you were all wonderful and will always be missed
I ate at Alan Hale's Lobster Barrel and he walked up to our table to greet us. He was wearing his Skipper cap too. I even shook his hand and got an autograph. A very nice man!
I read a biography about him. Apparently he loved his role as the Skipper. It never bothered him to be known for that role. I named one of my dogs Gilligan. He was a stray who was in really bad shape, rescued by a client of the vet clinic where I work. When he was well enough, he was allowed to run around the clinic and he always followed me, so I called him my little buddy. So, when he became my dog, the name choice was obvious.
Alot of actors hated being so closely associated with a character they played for so many years after production ended, but Alan Hale absolutely relished dressing up as, and being in his 'Skipper' character. He was always happy to oblige fans with a friendly greeting, a photo and an autograph. A really wonderful man.
Game Shows today are monotonous, no talent hosts, all trying to reinvent a bygone era that was exciting & the hosts had a flair for the dramatic they don't have today
I ate as Alan Hale's seafood restaurant in LA and was surprised as **** when he came out and introduced himself with a smille and went table-to-table. What a class act and geniuinely nice person.
@@carlsaganlives5112 if this is a gay remark, I can’t or won’t speak for the dead, as for me I was dropped off from work and noticed the crowd and movie set ups so I eased over enough to catch Mr. West completing a couple of takes when they yelled “cut “. So being from Massachusetts, I watched a little of how they wrapped things up and that’s when Mr. West spoke to me. I went home and told my wife, kids, friends, and even called my parents and told them. I was a kid when Batman was a very popular television show. But as a grown man, in my early thirties then, it was a different experience.
I met Adam West in 1989 when I was still just a boy. He was one of the nicest, kindest men I've ever known. May he and all those no longer with us rest in peace.
I met her a few years back as well. She was gracious, friendly, and beautiful. We talked about the show and she answered every question i asked her. I asked her if she had any souvenirs from the show. She told me she still had a pair of red shorts that she wore home from the last day of taping. At that time they didn’t know the show was going to be cancelled. She did ask me if I was a Ginger or Mary Ann guy. I told her I was a Ginger guy on Saturday nights, and Mary Ann the rest of the week. She told me she loved my answer. I’ll never forget how wonderful her perfume smelled. I got a kiss on the cheek from Mary Ann that night. What a memory.
I met Dawn Wells at a convention about 3 years ago. She was such a doll - made you feel right at home in her company. She invited me to sit next to her and chat for about 15 minutes. We took a great photo together. R.I.P. 😢
@Ronald H Great story!!! She is a living DOLL! THREE kisses for Richard??? I heard that the Gilligan's Island cast got paid for their work, and that's it...no residuals.... Alan Hale would do these appearances as the Skipper
Burt and Lee are still alive. Everybody else is gone. This is a classic episode that needs to always be preserved. Thanks for posting it. RIP everybody. You aren’t forgotten.,
Yeah not forgotten, I am not sure how long Richard Dawson has been gone….☹️ I’ve always loved Family Feud & I am here during the pandemic 🦠Nowadays it’s Steve Harvey hosting
Groweing up I watched batman all the time, and guilligans island. I was always excited asI watched these shows. Thank you for being in my life. Made growing up so good.
Amen to that! And that''s a fact, Jack! I was 15 yrs old when Gilligan's Island first premiered on TV in the mid-sixties. Always, still, would prefer/ take Mary Ann over Ginger. Friend, Girlfriend, Wife...however and whatever! RIP, Dawn Wells...millions of us loved you; and Ginger, too...sadly, Tina Louise who played Ginger, is the last one still alive from the cast of Gilligans Island.
I love this. Thanks so much for posting this. It is so beautiful to see all of them on the show together. They also displayed good showmanship for each other. Those days were so special. Good times, good shows, good people.
tami nguyen oh geez......well they sure made up for it!! Everything has to be black now. Black sports, black networks, black movies, black college, affirmative action - getting a job solely on the color of your skin. Black Privilege is all the rage now. Happy?
Watched the entire game. Wow!! These guys were so amazing, and a huge part of my childhood. Thank you for all those wonderful years you had us glued to the TV... 💜🙏💜 RIP
Adam West, Vincent Price, Lee Merewether, Yvonne Craig, Burt Ward, Dawn Wells, Jim Backus, Alan Hale, Natalie Schafer and Russel Johnson all in the one video?? This is a 60's cinematic masterpiece of historical proportions.
The skipper always seemed like one hell of a nice man. Not only on Gillilands island ,but on other shows he appeared in,like Andy Griffith show and with Gene Autry and many more. You could tell he was a real down to earth guy and is sadly missed. R.I.P!
The Skipper should have lost weight after only a few weeks on Gilligan's Island, because there would not have been plentiful food. The actor must have eaten well.
What an honour to of been entertained by all these beautiful and ever so natural people when I was a kid. Geee we were so lucky to of been born back then……
I ran home from school every day to watch Batman I loved the show, I'm in my 60's now and when I saw it come out on DVD 📀 I bought it!!!! Great show!!!!
I love how Alan Hale wore the skipper's hat everywhere. He really loved that character. You don't see much of that now cause actor's are too afraid of typecasting.
I recall his wife saying that “The Skipper” was an alter ego for him. She said something to the effect of, “when he put that hat on, he wasn’t Alan; he was The Skipper.
Yes 🙌 Vincent Price is a special Person !! My 5 th grade class went to L A and I met him in person !! He shook hands with my whole class now when it came my turn I I kinda got scared because I watched his movies even then !! But he was so nice he took my hand and said don’t be scared I’m just an actor I remember his hand was so soft !! God Bless you Mr Price ❤
You are very correct.. He even had a Restaurant called Skippers on La Cienaga near Santa Monica Blvd in Hollywood! I was a teen in the early 80s and used to walk by the restaurant that was closed by that time but still had the impression of the Skippers sign on the top of it. I looked up the history and Alan Hale used to love a good steak and seafood like me and I wish I had been able to visit it wnen it was open, because Alan was known to hang out and greet the guests!! It also was said to have terrific food!!
Thanks Ty for posting this episode. Although it was almost 40 years ago, it still brings back memories when TV was watchable. Best to Lee and Burt, who brought wholesome entertainment to us via Batman.
Actually, although I LOVED both Batman & Gilligan's Island (& still do), they were pretty stupid, insipid shows. Compare them to today's Golden Age of TV (HBO, Showtime, Netflix, Starz, BBC, PBS, AMC, the networks, Amazon Prime, Paramount, etc., etc.). There are SO MANY great, well-written shows today, it's impossible to watch a quarter of them. There's a reason why big name movie actors are falling all over themselves to do TV. Whereas, back in 1983, TV was still looked down on by movie actors. Part of that was unfair stigma, but it's partly because there hasn't been this many great shows since the original Golden Age of TV.
Time is a crazy thing. These people were on THE hits shows in their day. By the time this show was filmed they were well past their prime but still burning bright. Now, almost all of them are dead and most people under 35 would probably not know who any of them were at all. The wheel of time turns on…
The beauty of watching this all these years later is that you could see just how much each TV show cast loved each other and how close they were. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Tina Louise was a exception, prefer to not to associate with the reunions shows after the series ended. She wasn't friends with Dawn Wells. I'm not sure about the others though
All wonderful people that will be missed. But man, Vincent is such a legend. His voice may be known by more generations to come. And I LOVED him on the Brady Bunch 🙃
Two of my favorite shows as a kid (reruns in the 70s). It's sad that most of them are gone. Fortunately they'll all live on with retro TV, and entertain all new generations.
Yeah she was very attractive. She also aged like a fine wine and she was beautiful in her 20's and 70's. She was a sweetheart on and off the camera and helped with many charitable causes. She is missed
Beautiful, 2 of my favorite shows as a kid. Those were the days. Those were the best that TV had to offer. Great to see all these great actors and actresses together ❤
Vincent Price was the classiest creepy guy of all time.
He and Christopher Lee share my birthday, not the year of course-I'm not that old-5/27. There character's might've been creepy, but I doubt if they were. Pete Lorre once told Spike Jones, " You do to music what I do to people " Lorre was once married to the lady who played T'Pau on "Star Trek".
Don't miss masque of the red death, one of Vincent's greatest roles in my opinion.
You got that right! He was lots of fun.
He was most eggcellent in all of his Batman appearances.

I heard from his widow that Alan always wore the Skipper hat because he loved the role so much.
@@kenterminateddq5311 actually he wore the entire outfit he wore on the set... Hat and all
I heard Alan was NOTHING like The Skipper or Archie Bunker who were loud and angry.

Thanks for sharing. He and his dad were amazing actors. You can just tell the Hale's were kind people not to mention the others pictured in this video. Thanks for posting.
Alan Hale Jr. once played one of Egghead's henchmen on Batman in 1967. His name on the show was......Gilligan.
He and professor made a bunch of westerns.
😂😂😂
The Professor is a war hero 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
He owned a food counter he wasn't acrimal chief O'Hara friend
Alan Hale was the Skipper
Wow! Three of the most iconic voices of all time together on stage! Adam West, Vincent Price, and Jim Backus! By George!
Vincent did lots of suspense type thriller movies, but I loved it when he did comedy! It was so easy for him. As Moses once said to him "Then, kill me master butcher"! Of course, that wasn't a comedy, but I wish Vincent would have done more comedies!
Who is By George ?
Was he also Mr. Magoo?
@jayniekinser7029 indeed he was!
Russel Johnson coming in with the clutch at the end!!! That's why we call him the professor!
Alan Hale Jr. used to shop at the same supermarket (Ralph's) where I shopped in the late 80s in Hollywood. He continued to wear his Skipper hat. He always had a smile on his face and would talk to anybody. Great guy.
He was a cutie- ❤❤❤
Met Vincent Price once. His daughter was in my college class. What an elegant and classy gentleman he was. And so proud of his daughter. Just lovely!
Did you date with her?
Nice to share that. Thank you.
Thought you were going to say his daughter was indeed an Egg Head in college
He frightened me when I was a kid.
He was (and still is) a legendary actor. Mostly known for his horror roles, which is a shame because he did so much more than that.
Alan Hale Jr. was one of my favorite humans ever. He had a heart of gold, and was loved by all... in and out of show business. A total class act.

He lived his "Skipper" persona because he knew how much joy it brought to people (and I think he liked it too).
@@alparkranger
I wonder why Gilligan wasn't there.
His father was great too, but a little bit of a rust about with Earl Flynn

He was the only batman. The others all of them were fake. To the batmobile Robin
Great guy, but couldn't act to save his soul. A brick had more emotion than he did when he was in front of the camera.

And he voiced the mayor of Cohog in Family Guy

He shook hands with my whole class now when it came my turn I I kinda got scared because I watched his movies even then !! But he was so nice he took my hand and said don’t be scared I’m just an actor I remember his hand was so soft !! God Bless you Mr Price ❤
RIP Richard you are missed
Alan Hale Jr. Was a fine character actor and never put down the show. His Dad was Errol Flynn's wing man in movies and bar brawls.
You are very correct.. He even had a Restaurant called Skippers on La Cienaga near Santa Monica Blvd in Hollywood! I was a teen in the early 80s and used to walk by the restaurant that was closed by that time but still had the impression of the Skippers sign on the top of it. I looked up the history and Alan Hale used to love a good steak and seafood like me and I wish I had been able to visit it wnen it was open, because Alan was known to hang out and greet the guests!! It also was said to have terrific food!!
In the victory, did you see how Mrs. Howl did not leave Thurston's side. What a real classy lady and friend.
@Carl Routh Oh how we miss class , dignity and elegance.
Lovey Howell ❤
Omg Mrs Howl...dying.
@@missleader5262 would you say you were howling?
"Thurston dah-ling."
I met Dawn Wells at a Christmas parade in Garden Grove, CA where she served as 'Grand 'Marshall' in 2019. She was a total SWEETHEART. SO VERY NICE.
2 of my favorite show casts so sad there are only 2 still with us R.I.P to all those passed .❤
Yes.
Gilligans Island had the Advantage of Having the professor on their team.
The Professor outsmarted Bruce Wayne.
He could build a radio out of a freakin' coconut, but he couldn't build them a boat??
Idk Bruce Wayne is a pretty smart dude, AND a millionaire.
The Professor has a very sharp mind in real life.
@@williamnorkelun1468 And couldn't build them a boat...when they already had a boat that just needed to be repaired!
If I could weigh the amount of class on this stage, I'd be crushed.
In today's world, we need this wholesome entertainment
Pure joy watching this. Way better time back then.
Lee Meriwether's meoww is worth the price of admission alone.
yes.!!!!!!!!!
Roowwwwwllllll!!! 😉😛
She also starred in Irwin Allen's "Time Tunnel"
She was also in one of the Original Twilight Zone episodes, iirc
Lee Meriwether also a classic beauty like Dawn Wells
I love how the Professor answered his questions at the end, haha :)
Thanks Ty for posting this episode. Although it was almost 40 years ago, it still brings back memories when TV was watchable. Best to Lee and Burt, who brought wholesome entertainment to us via Batman.
I never thought I'd live to see this era as The Good Old Days.
WOW what a lineup.. When Hollywood had good shows and good people..
Actually, although I LOVED both Batman & Gilligan's Island (& still do), they were pretty stupid, insipid shows. Compare them to today's Golden Age of TV (HBO, Showtime, Netflix, Starz, BBC, PBS, AMC, the networks, Amazon Prime, Paramount, etc., etc.). There are SO MANY great, well-written shows today, it's impossible to watch a quarter of them. There's a reason why big name movie actors are falling all over themselves to do TV. Whereas, back in 1983, TV was still looked down on by movie actors. Part of that was unfair stigma, but it's partly because there hasn't been this many great shows since the original Golden Age of TV.
Time is a crazy thing. These people were on THE hits shows in their day. By the time this show was filmed they were well past their prime but still burning bright. Now, almost all of them are dead and most people under 35 would probably not know who any of them were at all. The wheel of time turns on…
This is priceless to see, hear and laugh with legends of our TV shows.
It is a shame that most everyone 30 years old and younger have no idea the massive star power on that stage
Back when tv was actually entertainment.
Spot on. Spot on.
@RustyAngel And everyone ate meat and potatoes. No keto back then !!
Family feud was safe for the family
Dawn Wells bouncing down the stairs like she's still a teen is so gorgeous.
It's cool seeing these people play this game. And they were funny too. Those two shows were some of my favorites as a kid.
So many memories!!! I watched this show home sick with the chicken pox in 5th grade. I love it!
Skipper even wore his hat.
Adorable! Loved him!! 🥰🐻
The beauty of watching this all these years later is that you could see just how much each TV show cast loved each other and how close they were. Thank you for sharing this with us!
BUZZR LET'S PLAY
Tina Louise was a exception, prefer to not to associate with the reunions shows after the series ended. She wasn't friends with Dawn Wells. I'm not sure about the others though
When you work on a set you are there 12 hours a day many days. Met my best friend on a set over a decade ago. Still friends!😊
All wonderful people that will be missed. But man, Vincent is such a legend. His voice may be known by more generations to come. And I LOVED him on the Brady Bunch 🙃
He was so underrated in terms of his comedic ability.
Dawn Wells, Yvonne Craig and Lee Meriwether.....NATURAL beauty and sexiness in the roles they played.
Amen, Hope Dawn is BornAgain Christian.
@@WisdomOverWicked777Rules Pride is a Deadly Sin
Dawn Wells stayed and took care of Natalie S. when she was sick and in her death bed, something you never hear of these days.
Robbie Smith she was so sweet
That's because they were close friends...
'Dawn' dude... 🙂👍
YES she did! AND Natalie gave Dawn a VERY Expensive, Vintage Broach the she had worn ON the show as a gift that she STILL has!
Her name is Dawn, not Don. She's not a dude.
I met Dawn Wells at a Christmas parade in Garden Grove, CA where she served as 'Grand 'Marshall' in 2020. She was a total SWEETHEART. SO VERY NICE.
I used to watch this so much growing up. Dawson was such a great and classy host but still knew how to throw in the jabs from time to time.
Dawson was arrogant & conceited & nasty 🤢 to people behind the scenes.
@@dorothyjohnson3728 Maybe so but that doesn't change how he performed his job on the air.
R.I.P to all of these wonderful actors and actresses. Especially to the lovely Dawn Wells on 12/30/2020
Two of my favorite shows as a kid (reruns in the 70s). It's sad that most of them are gone. Fortunately they'll all live on with retro TV, and entertain all new generations.
Alan and Adam are spectacular human beings. Yvonne is amazing. Dawn is amazing, and Natalie is fabulous
Love, love, love watching these shows with celebs I grew up watching! Thanks for posting!
The Dawson walk-off to get the fast money with a number one answer was always classic! Fun times. Loved all 3 shows.
Damn Natalie Schafer looked incredible for being 83.
She looked the same as when she was stranded on the island.
Really? Amazing.
I saw a picture of her as a silent film actress from the 1920's. She was a doll.
Jim being Magoo will never get old lol!!!!
I love Gillian’s Island! It warms my heart every time I see an episode!😊
This was So Fun to watch!!! I smiled the whole time! Legends, all of them 💜💜 thank you for sharing!!
My mother loved this show sooooooo much back in the day. Reminds me of the good old days! I miss those days more than ever now.
Alan Hale was the nicest, happiest guy. Loved that show. Such a delightful cast! 🤍
People looked happy back then rather than looking for something to be offended by, as people do today. Hope we can get that back.
@@dakoderii4221 me to
your right Alan Hale was the happiest and nicest guys and I love that show to
@@dakoderii4221 👍
Alan was among the nicest...but hardly among the happiest. I worked twice with Russell in the 80's--a vivacious man.
Two of my favorite sweethearts from the 60s. Dawn Wells and Yvonne Craig .
LOVED Every minute of this! Thank you!
My crush of 50+ years is gone. RIP Dawn Wells. ❤️❤️❤️
Yeah she was very attractive. She also aged like a fine wine and she was beautiful in her 20's and 70's. She was a sweetheart on and off the camera and helped with many charitable causes. She is missed
Beautiful, 2 of my favorite shows as a kid. Those were the days. Those were the best that TV had to offer. Great to see all these great actors and actresses together ❤
Me to, two of my all time favorite TV shows growing up, but I watched it in reruns in the 80s, love all those actors and actresses♥️
