The "TMI" is what made this show so funny! Bob was more than willing to let contestants give as much detail as the "censors" would allow. Great entertainment!!!
That must have been cool. Being on a game show and then keeping a tape of it and even putting it on you tube later. I was on the news in 1980 as a young 20 year old computer salesman demonstrating a Texas Instruments TI 80 Home computer when they were first becoming a new thing. I got to watch it but never had a copy of it. It was really fun for me at the time. The next day a kid said...HEY, I saw you on TV last night....lol
Loved watching. Hasn't tv changed its morality, can't watch anything with the grandkids anymore unless I watch it first myself, to make sure there are no surprises.
@@drgwenmorse Did you and your husband ever kept in touch with your fellow couple contestants from your particular episode ? I assume that all of the couples sprent time tgether in the green room before the show .

I loved this show and looking back, what a great show. I didn't realize it was kind of racy. I guess when I was little those jokes went over my head. Bob Eubanks, what a host!
One of my top three game shows ever! I can watch this show again and again 💗 I would absolutely love a revival of this show with THE MAN Bob Eubanks hosting! He will always be the perfect host of this show! I developed a crush of older women watching this show as a youngster! 💗

This is a February 1980 episode of the American TV show "Newlywed Game" and it's from the 1979 syndicated version. The four couples competing on this episode are Gwen & David, Stevie & Jack, Dawn & Charles and Jenelle & Rod. 🇺🇲 🇺🇲
I liked the original the best, from the 1960s, but I watched this no matter what year it was made. Bob Eubanks sure kept his babyface looks for decades!! Dawn and her husband look about age 16. I was 19 when this episode was new, so some of these people in this ep are probably 65 by now, and grandparents.
I watched this game during the late 1960's, as a child.I was 19 when this ep was made. Many of the husbands on the 1960's eps were in the military then. I wonder if those couples from 1980 are still married.That one guy looks 16, the one called Charles.
Gosh that would mean that cute little couple is well into their 50s now, my husband's age, and that baby is 40. I love your hair in this. Congrats on still being together after all this time. Makes me wonder out of all those shows how many couples are still together.
Hey, they did about 2 or 3 years ago, it was hilarious, it played at an odd hour, 5 -6 am. a black lady Sherri Sheppard, I think hosted it. She is wonderful, very funny. Now she is on " Funny you should Ask " part of the time... 😎🙂😎
I remember this particular ep when new. I have often wondered if the couples of any decade of the Newlywed Game are still married or still living (early 1960s eps), and if I watch old documentaries filmed in the USA I wonder if the background people are still living. The woman on this episode with short and curly blond hair looks like Georgette of the Mary Tyler Moore show, married to Ted Baxter.I always liked this game show.
I thinkDawn had the best hair out of the four beautiful ladies on stage. Gwin, are y’all still married? He still doing that to your toes? And do you still have those pajamas with the drop back drawers lol 🌞🌹 It’s nice to see that romance is dead
@@kambreesuncle2So we disagree, Big whoop! Steve is hilarious. The show concept is excellent. Our cultures level of impolite comments and behaviour bring everything out in the open with no filters. The earlier shows gave us a view of innocence not present today. Families from around the country exaggerate the difference. Go troll someone else. May the snark be with you at your next family gathering and spill hot sarcasm in your deflated lap.
@@kambreesuncle2 I so agree with you.Steve Harvey is asking too much money.The production company says he is too expensive to keep.If he does return, he'll have to take a pay cut.
Very good question. We were sent to a “soundproof room” which was a closet with old mattresses up against the wall. The magic of Hollywood was very disappointing. Thanks for asking!
The 1977-80 syndicated version was taped at KTLA in Los Angeles and, later, at the "Chuck Barris Stages" at Ren-Mar studios in Hollywood. Same for "The Dating Game."
Ahhh, back in the day when the 3 runners up accepted gifts that OJ represented before he thought it would be cool to murder his ex-wife and a restaurant waiter.

Bob was a great host for this show I love the show
I used to watch it back then and the gifts were awesome, now I the gifts seem old fashioned compared to today’s technology
Thanks for posting my favorite show‼️ Still watching in 2020‼️
Charles was a cutie pie! I loved this show!!! Thanks for posting!
Oh Gwen you guys are adorable!
Those were the days!
I forgot how funny this show really was!!!!!! Some of these couples can be SSSSSOOOOO nasty and give TMI with their answers!!!!!!! WOW!!!!
I wish there was a celebrity one,with Bob and his wife,as one of the couples.I’d love to hear how Bob answered the questions.
I love games shows. Thank you for these shows.
I like those times..really I do🌺♥️
Loved watching. Hasn't tv changed its morality, can't watch anything with the grandkids anymore unless I watch it first myself, to make sure there are no surprises.
That's Great...Thanks for sharing Gwen!! I love this show!!
I was hoping that Couple three would win. They were adorable.
Thanks for sharing, Gwen. Love those fresh faced innocent times.
1980?...innocent times?.....what planet are you from?....BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us and it's awesome that you have this to look back on. Your dress is beautiful you did a wonderful job 😊

The best shows are this, price is right and match game. My 3 faves
I loved this version of the show. Even with Bob’s condescending attitude. Everyone was great in this episode (especially Gwen). Thanks for posting 😊
He was really a douchebag.
@@TheBandit7613 he could be douchey

I like O.J. as the driver/model for the Hertz get-away... I mean rental car!! Lol!
I saw that

Bob Eubanks is 81 years old now, might not be up to hosting a game show.
@@acricucci9760 I've seen him on TV..and good old Bob still looks very much up to hosting a game show. He looked great!!
@@acricucci9760 Did you know that Bob is a certified cowboy in Ventura County, California?
this is a great episode on many levels.
Wow, Bob was totally annoyed and bored here 😄
making memories that last a lifetime, cool!
If toe kissing means the world is falling apart I’d hate Bob to see 2023.
Has 1980 really been 40 yrs now? Wow I had just turned 13. I wanna go back
I turned 14, me too!

I was 4 in 1980!!
I loved it then and I still love it today!!!
Me too.
And I totally agree!! I love watching these and would be so tickled if they would bring it back on.

I LOVE THE OLD NEWLYWED GAME FROM THE EARLY 70S AND 80S CHRIS HOCH
1980 - two years before I met my wife. 4 years later, we were married.
I don’t like how Bob acted in this one. Thanks for posting it.
Thank you for sharing! I always wonder where the couples are today.
You were so pretty in 1980

...or divorced long ago🤷🏻♂️
MK, geeez
Great post , Gwen, and you aged nicely
That's my piano! I still have it today! Lol
This show didn't vary the gifts that much. I watched many of these clips and the pool table and piano are very popular.
8:53 That sounds like a question right out of 2020
Thank you for sharing Gwen. You seem such a lovely young person here!

Hi Michelle, Yes, the young couple that won the game shared with my husband and I that they were 16 and 17 and had a baby. They were so cute!

I noticed Simpson in the hertz commercial also, who woulda figured he would become a murderer and thief later in life

What were those questions though? Ha some of the easiest ones no wonder he had to stale at the end lol
Bob was the Steve Harvey of the day.
You & David are so cute together in front of your hands & nose!
"At the end of the game you could win a prize selected just for you, and if you choose you can share it with your wife."
I was wondering if he had really said that, guess so!
Bob Eubanks was a such a nice looking man..
Bob Eubanks is still very much alive.
Judge coming in with the horn. 18:15
12:17 - I wonder if this was how Cyndi Lauper to kickstart her career within years!
Yea thatpeeping tom question is to creepy
The lady from Number 4 looks like Nicole Kidman
It's a wonder that anyone gets married.
That client 1 from hell u know
I thinkDawn had the best hair out of the four beautiful ladies on stage. Gwin, are y’all still married? He still doing that to your toes? And do you still have those pajamas with the drop back drawers lol 🌞🌹 It’s nice to see that romance is dead
I would have gladly sampled some of wife #3's 'Lasagna'....:>)
Zeke Hungwell she’s sexy.
The French food question was rather stupid.
Yes I agree ☝️
Yeah, like anyone in their right mind will say “yes! I am a peeping Tom!” What a stupid,f...ing question!
That was cool they got the 🛴 scooters
In my 74 years, The Newlywed Game has to be the funniest most uplifting game show I've ever watched!
12:26 "I PITY THE FOOL WHO DOESN'T LIKE MY MIXERS!"
Dawn is purrty
Anyone notice OJ Simpson in the Hertz rental car ad?
Good show
These early Match Game and Dating Game shows were the best. Remakes today are unwatchable except Family Feud with Steve Harvey.
What are you? Nuts? Family Feud with Steve Harvey is crap.

Nobody did it better than Bob Eubanks.
Did you have any further contact with the other couples?
Gwen, another question...after Bob says goodbye at the end of the show, they never show him on camera. Did he go offstage off camera?
I don't recall..I do remember the soundproof room was a closet with mattresses around the walls.
@@drgwenmorse They put a lot of mattresses in the soundproof room? Interesting.
@@richardhernandez4490 on the walls perv
@Jnetta
You sound fridgid
Bob shouldn’t have called that man a “pervert.”
The peeping tom question was weird.
What gets beeped out at 2:00 ? What did he say?.
"crotchless panties" :)
Another piano and mopeds again!
I wish that we could hear the bleeped out answers & comments
They bleeped out "suck/sucked" for sure. One of the husband's said he sucked his wife's toes
My most un favorite thing was getting fired
Did you/your husband do any other game shows?
No, we never did. I am so lucky that I was able to take this show (borrowed a beta machine--prior to VHS) the night it aired in April, 1980.
I was always curious.... where did you go backstage when you were secluded? This was at ABC-TV?
Very good question. We were sent to a “soundproof room” which was a closet with old mattresses up against the wall. The magic of Hollywood was very disappointing. Thanks for asking!

That second man seems like a real creep!
I concur
Say Gwen, have you ever appeared on the more recent remake of this show as a Goldywed couple?
No, but I would love to!
It isn’t brand new or quality crafted. Why? Because someone already used it.....
So funny 😂😂
The star ? is weird even for the 60's.
I’m just trying to figure out the one contestant that is going to say he is a peeping Tom in his neighborhood? Some of these questions are crazy!
Eu quero participar do Programa conhecer minha Alma Gêmea 😍😍😍😍😍
Ahhh, back in the day when the 3 runners up accepted gifts that OJ represented before he thought it would be cool to murder his ex-wife and a restaurant waiter.
Have you played peeping tom?? They trying to pull up a charge on these dudes?? What kind of question is that?!
I thought that was bizarre!
A really weird one
At this point the show was in the dumper so they were trying to spice it up a bit
Yea the peeping tom thing is to weird
OJ @ 3:16 cracks me up
