- I was on The All New Dating Game...trying to remember why, lol. Sporting an 80s permmullet and the latest fashions from the Beverly Center, I got to choose amongst 3 unlucky ladies to accompany me to...let's find out, shall we?
This is the full show recording, including commercial breaks, as it was aired on Friday, March 11, 1988. VHS quality from the era is always...challenging to endure. Recently recovered from a box in our crawlspace, we're long past due for a public airing.
Very cool, Russell! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for showing this. This version has never been rerun ever.
This is absolutely amazing! Love that I can see this!!
LOL, commercials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Show 😍 The Dating Game 🤩
Blind dating! Ugh! Fun to watch this knowing I never have to do this ever!!! 😛
I was told this version from 1986-1989 was shot at Sunset-Gower Studios. I wonder if Garry Shandling did his show nearby.
How did you find your episode? I was on it around the same time. Would love to dig up the video.
I found the physical VHS tape that my mother recorded when it originally aired; it was in a box in my crawlspace.
@@russellsullivan1642thanks for posting this! It aired when I was a junior in highschool, so I'm sure I saw it at the time. I was hoping you would pick Sally Field! (Because I also look/act like her, plus I'm a huge fan.) You were definitely a hottie back in the day, and you've seasoned well. How was your date? I heard that half the contestants back out on going.
@@LoveChild71 Ha...thanks. We talked backstage while the 2nd half of the show was taping to talk about when to take the trip. She invited me to her house for a party the following weekend, where we'd have more time. We kept having conflicts with jobs and other commitments, so when it was almost due to expire, I forfeited the trip so she could take whomever she wanted. Haven't spoken to her since...although she was VERY nice. I'm married; we've been together since two years after this show aired, so everything worked out.
16 years old? What the heck is this show? I would never have allowed my daughter to be on this. Eighteen it’s her business
maybe this was the forerunner show for chris hanson
They could have had an 18 year old game show fan at the time, could have been worse.
Get laid
I once pitched a comedy sketch where the main contestant had to pick from 4 cancer patients, each with a different stage. At the conclusion of the show the main contestant had to have sex with one, go on a date with one, give one a handjob, and marry one - with the reveal of the suitors cancer prognosis coming afterward.
Apparently it wasn't fit for national broadcasting at the time, but somehow word got up the grapevine to various network heads that it was perfect covert reality show programming for their millionaire premium subscribers. Before you know it, born again MTV producers were scouring social media looking for the perfect personalities to lock in sun tan booths and intubate with vape juice.
As the truman-type show progressed, it was clear, no matter the contestants, it always ended with tired variations of ironic petite mort punchlines. However these lizard folk loved watching people encroaching death become flanderized versions of themselves - Tuesdays with Dory I used to call it.
Anyways call this quasi speculative flash fiction or paranoid ramblings or ad hoc horror - I don't care.
