Hosted by Jim Lange. - Розваги
Oh my that little girl Dawn is adorable...Even the children have changed so much and not in a good way sadly....
If a man said he likes little girls today it would be taken the wrong way.
I so agree
Would be really creepy
Then I would say….Are you Joe Biden back there?
@@Wellch Always trying to correct your mistakes huh Bellch? Joe was a good husband and father and came through for his family after a tough loss. Meanwhile, Trump has PICTURES of himself behaving inappropriately with his daughter Ivanka from even when she was little (AND PLENTY of video of Trump SAYING inappropriate things about her and other women and girls as well). Don, Jr. meanwhile, had to contact Mark Meadows on January 6th because (get this) Don, Jr. DID NOT have his own father's cell phone number. Oh and did I mention that Trump could WALK to his good friend Jeff Epstein's home in not just Palm Beach, Florida but in New York City as well.
This was so sweet to have little Dawn pick a date for her mom, simply adorable...I always loved this show, they should bring it back...the men were so respectful and nice back then...
Yes we were!
I know Im asking the wrong place but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot the login password. I love any tricks you can give me!
I've only seen a couple so far, and some of their answers made me very uncomfortable. So maybe not... Haha
Not always.
Hillary Crane went on to become a renowned school psychologist and now retired self-described lady of leisure. Her and Greg parted ways after their date in Hawaii.
Hillary's mom Jean Crane passed away in 2015, aged 88. It mentioned on her obituary that her "appearance on the dating game did not phase her, a special Mother's Day event found her answering the young suitor's questions, she won flowers and Hillary went to Hawaii on the date."
Thanks for the update and information on this, very interesting.
She looked like the grandma instead of the mom on the show
This is so cute loved them older shows. ❤️❤️💯
People who are shocked by the innocence of this show have to realize that people weren't sick in the head from watching internet porn like they are today. A mother AND a father was the norm and people covered their private parts.
Oh, please. My grandfather kept porn magazines in his den. Men had mistresses. Angry people who go on about the good old days don’t realize how good it is now. We can watch The Dating Game in our hand whenever we like.
@@ravenel2 PlayBoy was created in 1953 so it was almost 20 years old by 1972. Doesn’t mean that those times people were less degenerate than they are today. Obviously the 1960’s changed that with the Cultural Revolution & Sexual Revolution but it was only the beginning to what is became today.
@@ravenel2 Of course it was more innocent time.But Not totally innocent..The price of knowledge is innocence..The internet is amazing.But with that knowledge gained from it comes the loss
@@ravenel2 It’s far worse now and you know it.
no it's not.. It's always existed but was hidden Now it's more in the open
R.I.P., Jim Lange (1932-2014).
OMG...I thought I was going crazy before I actually SAW this. She was there for her mom. Thank Goodness 😂🤪
IKR??!!
This was so enjoyable to watch! Thanks so much for uploading! Love it!!
Ditto
9 yr old Dawn Lyn is 56 yrs old today. My..how time flies!!
Dawn was so nervous when asking the questions, she totally forgot to ask batchlor #3, mainly focused on #1.
@@lindaackerman3507I noticed that, too, poor guy.
OOP ! "I like children, especially little girls.." if you said that on a TV show nowadays, you'd find yourself in a prison cell biting on a pillow..
Yes, because people have gotten completely ridiculous and over sensitive about thinking there's a pervert around every corner. It's scary just to be a parent nowadays people have gotten so judgemental about how you do everything and are so quick to scold. If you're not a child's parent, you're afraid to even look at them or speak to them, even if they need help, for fear of being accused of something. God help a child that gets lost in a store nowadays, no one would want to take them to find help, for fear of being accused of trying to abduct them.
Wow things sure have changed and not for the better
thé look on #3’s faceeeee baby was not happy with her mom’s responses 😭
Bachelorette #2 seemed slightly less embarrassed by her mom's replies.
Much later on, Jim Lange said that they tried these "special shows" just to see which ones would go over well. The Mother's Day thing was poorly received because the girls didn't speak at all, and Dawn Lyn's questioning of those men was so awkward that the show's producers decided to return to the conventional format.
LOL...hearing grown men say "I like little girls" was weird. Wouldn't fly today!🤣
It was a sweet idea , but I agree, it was awkward
Such quality wholesome show..shows of the passttttt.
Hello Donna, How are you doing?
@@kellyofuller4974 cant complain.
Indubidubly 🙂
He seems like a genuinely nice, warm guy...i find the romantic in me hoping that they would make their own little family 🙂
Hello Margaret, How are you doing?
@@kellyofuller4974 does this move ever work?
@@Charles-linquest-JR Never.
Dawn Lyn only asked bachelor # 3 one question, yet when he wasn't picked, he still gave her more love then the 1 that was picked, how sad is that? And that 1st guy OMG. Now round 2, very cute concept, I think they should do this more, let Mom pick out a date for their Daughter...won't happen. But, the date he chose...hmm, I got the feeling she was not into him so much, she didn't even want to shake his hand, much less hold it. awww. I wonder if these people look back on this day & are like , what the world was I doing lol.
Yeah, I thought she was going to pick 3.
Dawn Lyn's brother is washed-up teen heartthrob Leif Garrett. Dawn, now 57, stands 4'10" and Leif is 5'7" and their mother, now 87, is still alive.
Wow
Leif has not aged well and his life is still a mess. He can’t seem to leave drugs alone.
@@janethartwig774 The main character in the 2013 movie "Trust Me" mentioned the fact that he aged better than Leif Garrett.
The first guy that didn't get picked walked right past the 11 y/o and didn't even acknowledge her. How rude was that?
Only 9 yrs. old.
Yeah should have shaked her hand.
Glad she didn't pick number 2, claims to like kids but rude to her, however number 1 was really chringe worthy too, number 3 didn't get many questions.
Or at least a little bow to her or something
That's not true. If you watch it again, as he's coming around the corner, the camera zooms in on her face and she nods. You don't see him again until he goes behind her, so you don't actually see WHAT he did or didn't do.
WTF, poor bachelor number 3 didn't have a chance! I bet he was irritated when he as an up-and-coming actor found out that her mom was already in the business
Dawn’s mom’s outfit reminded me of an Amish woman.
I think she is Leif Garrett's mother too. I know Dawn Lynn is his sister.
More like the Flying Nun!😂
I thought it was a joke!
I know! What was up with that scarf and long dress?
Daughter #3 was a wholesome young lady.
You would think Mom number 1 wanted to sabotage the date from the beginning wearing a body smock and burka.
Mom #3 was trying to get her daughter that date.
Lol
For sure, why else would a mother volunteer that kind of info about her daughter when she's about to go on a date with a boy she's never met. The daughter has a look on her face like, thanks mom - how am I supposed to keep him off me now?
For sure, why else would a mother volunteer that kind of info about her daughter when she might be about to go on a date with a boy. The daughter has a look on her face like - thanks mom, how am I supposed to keep him off me now? Imagine what her father was thinking if he was watching that.
Or for herself.
The first couple make a good couple.
I should have screened all my mom's past relationships I bet I could have picked the right ones from the wrong ones for her back in the day .
All kids should do this for their parents kids are good at judging who is the right ones .
Great video! 👍🙂
BONUS, there's a cutaway commercial and for a split second, you'll see Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe from 'Friends')at 18:45 for a split second on a potato chip commercial.
I was never a big fan of Dodie but this is adorable. Her reaction to raggedy Ann (creepy doll) is endearing.
I have a feeling her mommy made her dress (as well as her own) because in the 70s we all made a good deal of our own clothing. It was a way to express our creativity and was fun
Yes the scarf was weird but not uncommon. Mrs Garrett was very pretty and I’ll bet a good mom
She was never Mrs. Garrett. She was Mrs. Nervik. Leif used the last name Garrett for his career. I think she made a poor decision when she allowed her 15-year-old son to travel around with a bunch of men who were a VERY poor influence on her son.
I had one
Raggedy Ann was terrifying!
No doubt, Jim Lange was a courteous & professional host.
Wow the first lady was so gorgeous in blue ❤
Yes she is gorgeous in blue, but that was a very weird outfit. That scarf she wore on her head was bizarre.
@@janeforst8464 , no women dressed like that back then, neither did girls. This show is creepy.
“Likes little girls.” was said too much!
it was honest back then .....
maybe I will be on the dating game
People had clean minds back then.
@@beachwalker2574 well it did sound perverted. Grown men usually don't go round saying ' I like little gils' hello Megan's law.
No it wasn't clean back then. Look what she was wearing. Loads of men preyed on little girls back then especially in Hollywood, just like they do today
The guy at the start looks like an extra from Anchorman :D
This is Leif Garrett's mom and little sister
Oh really. Ty. I didnt know that !
Which girl and mom.
Must be the middle mom and daughter.
@@leslietig4 the first daughter that picked the date for her mom.
@@leslietig4 Dawn Lyn is Leif sister.
The one with that classic blooper, as shown in the cold opening!
I don't understand that woman's scarf. It's the Dating Game. There is no breeze.
I love the way he cracks up hahahaha moms are sometimes unpredictable!
I love dawn on my 3 sons. Her brother is leif Garrett. She was adorable.
Bachelor #1 is the perfect gentleman in the truest sense so kind to the little girl with all the right questions 😆
Don Dorkowski, the date selected by Dawn Lyn for her mom, was a longtime NFL official.
Additional info for the curious: Don also ended up a wealthy philanthropist and married to a lovely lady named Carol. He likely didn't pursue this woman, as she was the notorious "stage-mother" to teen heartthrob Leif Garrett and this little girl, Dawn Lyn - whose paycheck supported the fatherless family for years before Leif's success and "fall from grace".
Was his nicknake "Dork" in school?
@@acerothstein4755 Nicknake?? Hmm....lol.
@@acerothstein4755 I would say %100 probability along with all his high school students calling him Mr. Dork talking about him in outside class. I ignored the typo. We all know what you meant,
Don is Hot!
When Mom number 3 says, "except maybe she likes to park", doesn't that mean that her daughter likes to make out in a parked car.
yes
Powerranger6342 daah
yep, that's what it means.
And very easy to do in a 1972 Dodge Dart
Duh, you think?
Leif Garret and Dawn Lynn had a very pretty mom.
Dawn only asked guy number 3 one question
Little known fact: Mom #1's hair was a failed NASA project in the late 1960s.
she looked like the grandmother of the girl
Hello! My mom was on this show in 1978 or 1979 as the main woman. We have been scouring the internet for so long trying to track the episode down. Any chance you can lead me in the right direction since you have yours? This would be so cool to see as her now 24 year-old daughter! Any tips you have would be so appreciated it. Thank you!
What's her name? That would probably help.
You may want to try Fremantle media. They sometimes have these old type of shows.
24 year old daughter? This happened over 40 years ago.
@@BBBYpsi Obviously the daughter wasn't born yet when her mother was on the show.
Which one of the 3 was it
Greg must have thought I'm gonna grow my hair long, but I will give it a parting so it looks smart. All I have to do is keep shaking my head every second to stop me going blind in my right eye!
Yeah, exactly, and on the parted side it's like he was wearing his hair like a sideburn. I don't think I've ever typed the word sideburn before, looks strange. I bet young folks today don't even know what sideburns are, but almost all the men had them back in those days.
Hawaii! Wow! What a cool date for two teens
Dawn's Mother looks like she was in her gown!
The slang term "groovy" used @16:55 LOL He should have picked #3. She kissed him.
Snickering Hard Here 👈🏼 ......
THIS WAZ JUST AZ PAINFUL 🤕 🤦🏻♂️
TO WATCH 2'DAY, AZ IT WAZ BACK
IN ( 1972 ) WHEN THIS AIRED AND
I WAZ (12yrz 0ld).....
And he did! What a cute couple! Go have fun Greg and Hilary!
I know everything was different then; but I think the producers were smoking those "funny little cigarettes" when they came up with the concept of Mother's Day for this show. Awkward...
You should check out the back-story on the producer Chuck Barris. A recent biopic about him indicted that he claimed to be a government assassin while also producing these popular game shows (The Gong Show, The Newlywed Game, etc.)
Chuck Barris was a nut job.
Laura B I Agree
This was a different time for sure, I actually liked this , it was so different and everyone was so nice and respectful,.....and about Chuck Baris, he was really kooky, the gong show was his show too, need I say more...lol
@@leannemo7382 re. the story of Chuck Barris working for the Gov't (and being an "assassin" )... That's not so hard to believe, knowing what we now know about the 3-letter agencies. They have infiltrated Every part of American Society. Even the world. The same people who are behind Everything happening today. Teaming with other evil partners around the world.
Oh that hair that hair that hair (on the moms) And they talk about the big hair in the 80's lol
Men were gentlemen. 😉👍💯
Diggin' the '72 hair and clothes.
Greg should picked #3
Look at Greg checking all the girls bums out. haha
As well he should! lol
He was probably looking at the legs to. It is what we did back then & no one thought nothing of it.
He claims to like thoroughbreds......so...
@@BBBYpsi Yes, women actually enjoyed being women back in those days and took it as a compliment when a man was looking at them admiringly. Most women act like they hate men nowadays. No wonder so many men have gone gay or go after little girls.
@@serenatwilite4005 Exactly. Men next to men are so buddy buddy it starts to go sideways with friendships and turns into romance because neither get to experience it with a woman who is so afraid of everything in this day and age.
Don looks like everyone’s math teacher.
Do you have the Dating Game episode from some time in March 1972 featuring actor Brandon Cruz, then almost 10 years old, choosing a date to the Hollywood premiere of John Wayne's movie "The Cowboys"? I'd love to see it.
No, sorry, this is the only episode I have.
i wonder where contestant number 3 is now?
The women where alot beautiful back then
I think "chops" there is looking forward to getting Dawn's mom alone in the Flamingo Hotel...
Not chops. Sideburns. My great uncle had and has some mutton chops. In his late 80s, he still sports those chops
@@rocknroller77 Awesome. Last of a breed, your great uncle.
What’s that bonnet scarf on her head?
21:48 extreme modesty 😂 I think they went on the show for publicity for the little girl
Lol.. love this.. episide made 1 month before my birth. Holy crap 50 years ago.. I feel so old when I say it outloud( well, typing it)😅
Dawn chose that dude for her mom; wonder if anything came of it. Must be a tough gig, being a single mom and trying to find a new partner.
The Caprice! 11:49
It's 2019 so these high school contestants are in their mid-60s now
High school? They all look like they're in their early 30s!
Dawn Lyn, wow. Met her when she was in the service. Such a nice person. So sad about her recent illnesses and coma.
I didn't know that.😢 I'm going to pray for her.
The second bachelor reminded me of Bob Newhart.
Incredibly awkward. They'd never do this today
That one guys hair blends in with his face and suit.
I like mom #1s glasses
Greg's hair was so corny
TabbyAngel2 This was in 1972. Teen styles are distinctive from decade to decade. I was 13 that year and this was cool back then.
@ Ariel Sarino I was 13 then also! By 1976 when I raised my right hand and joined the military, my hair was past my shoulders only to have it shaved off in 7 seconds. I miss the 70s!
@@arielsarino2823 His hair looked like shit even for the 70s.
He looked like Buddy Hinton from the Brady Bunch! "Baby talk, baby talk...it's a wonder you can walk"!...lol! 🙎♂️
I miss the 50s..!
Just realized that was 50 years ago. 🙈😯👍💯😃
Did that 1st Mother have a gown on? And that scarf was crazy! Quite strange!
It was beautiful
That's a matter of opinion,@@TabbyAngel2
It was very boho peasant, very of it's time
At what point in DG's run did the disclaimer about contestants receiving assistance in question prep from producers begin showing up at the start of the first questioning round?
OMFG COACH is not just sweet and funny but effing HOT. Good choice, young actor.
Wouldn’t you put the dolls in the closet and the bike in the garage LOL I think this bachelor had it backwards when the little girl asked him the question LOL
Dodie gave #1 only one question...guess she was scared by the drunken Cary Grant impression.
💞
Jeez, they put so much make up on the kid in part 2 and didn't blend it in very well !
mom number 3 was a loon
It looked to me like #2 of the first snubbed the little girl.
yep sure did.
I don't think he liked kids
Bizarre.
Dawn only grew a few more inches after this show.. As an adult she is only 4'10" tall..
that's Dotie.
Game 2: He reacts like he just won a date with Attila the Hun. Dawn Lyn was happier than he was and she's only 9
Girl number 2 was cute, and he didn't seem excited about her. I was a Junior in high school in 1972. So those kids are my age now if they are still alive. Ee
Every kid back then would have loved to have gone to Hawaii.They didn't show too much emotion They didn't even hug.
13:14 I like that language and word usage didn't get tainted back then, "Pert and pretty".
Daughter #1 in the second segment reminds me of Kirsten Dunst.
So sad #3 didn’t get to answer very many questions):
The bachelor boy is rather good looking. Let’s hope he picks similar
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Ugh.
Greig's haircut, 🤣.
20:45 at this moment that dude is thinking I've just been hooked up.😋🏄♂️
I was 6 years old in 1972.
They look like brother and sister LOL
In the opening, what did the mom say her daughter likes to do? Did she say “park”?
Yep. And we all know what that means. Back in the day, it was called "necking". 😂
She really wanted her to get that date, apparently, lol.
i dont get the scarf thing tho ! and i think the date the girl picked really didnt understand that big scarf !!!!!!!!!!!!
**and this was definitely a different era I mean when two preteens..😮😂😂 can go on a Hawaiian trip together come on
Chaperones. Not by themselves.
All dates even adult dates had chaperones to help assure safety & they do not embarrass the show.
Omg his hair!
It's really groovy, man!
@@dougritzema4778 He stole the look from Buddy Hinton on The Brady Bunch!
Number 1
Much bribing
WhAt happened to 3? Did she forget about him?
