  • To celebrate the 39th anniversary of the premiere of the original Family Feud, here's an episode from May 1981 (I promise that the next Dawson episode will be from Buzzr).
    The Johnsons (featuring Richard's future wife Gretchen) have won $6858 thus far, and are looking for more. Can the Smiths stop them?

      He could of choose from aton of women on the show. He was the ultimate alpha male. very attarctive combined with being very witty, could be a docuhe at times, but also a sweetheart. You never know exactly how he was going to act. That's what women want.

      Amen to that! At least she wasn't a "gold-digging hussy" who just married him for his money, then took him for all he was worth, or leave him for a younger man when he got old and sick. I could tell that she was a good person just by looking at her.

    When Richard was 61, he hosted the third incarnation of "Family Feud" in 1994, but had only a short run. On April 6, 1981, the Johnson family appeared on "Family Feud" and Richard was introduced to 27-year-old Gretchen Johnson. They had a daughter, Shannon Dawson (Shannon Nicole Dawson), in 1990, and were married in 1991. They were still married and reside in Beverly Hills, California. Richard narrated TV's Funniest Game Show Moments (1984) on Fox in early 2000. On Thanksgiving Day, November 23rd, 2000, he hosted a "Family Feud" marathon, which was filmed in 1995. Some people hear the name Richard Dawson and may not recognize the name. But say his name, followed by his famous quote "Survey says...!" or mention "Newkirk on Hogan's Heroes (1965)", and they're sure to know who you mean. Richard Dawson died at age 79 of complications from esophageal cancer on June 2, 2012.

They would not marry for 10 years in 1991, their daughter Shannon was a year old when they married.

      In May 1981, Richard Dawson was 48. He is also clearly smitten with Janet Smith 5:06 2:50 and openly flirts with her beyond his customary friendly kiss. Janet Smith fits Dickies attraction to petite blonde ladies (Ex-Wife Diana Fluck Dors and his gal, Jody Donovan) . . . and we see Richard appears a bit taken with Wendy Johnson too. As well, I believe there was an interview years later that revealed Dickie liked all of the Johnson girls. Why would anyone blame him? Dickie had been single for over a decade in 1981, and stated endlessly in interviews and to his friends that he had always thought there would be another lady in his life after Diana. He just wanted to find his Princess and the woman that was meant to be the Love of His Life Forever

      ​​@@urbanurchin5930 Yes, and I would love to know about the 1st lady contestants and her baby. I can't think of her name, she had the pretty sister on the end panel (Kim) who's fingernails Richard was admiring. I loved that family ❤
