Chuck Barris, ‘Gong Show’ Creator And Host, Dies At 87 | TODAY
Loved Chuck Barris and the Gong Show....two American treasures!!💙💜😥🙏
The Gong Show was such an important part of our daytime television and Chuck Barris touched all of our lives with his talent and comedy. He is greatly missed and I'm sure in Heaven he's got everyone laughing and has an endless pool of talented contestants. RIL (rest in laughter)!
Its depressing for us 70s kids to hear those last words at the end of this clip: "It was a little before my time". I guess you had to be there to love the most mindless 30 minutes of broadcasting...and that's exactly what made it so much fun. From Gene Gene to the Unknown Comic, Barris was true ringmaster of a TV circus. For fans who love the current-day Gong Shows that are on the air, Chuck truly was The Godfather of TV talent shows.
Bentom86 I loved watching the Gong Show, never wanted to miss it while it was on
Darn glad I was born in 57 and got to Grow in the 20th Century🇺🇸 He was Great , as were Many others 💖 BLESS THEM ALL👈 JIMMY
Gene, Gene, the Dancing Machine is already up in the Great Studio Set in the sky ... Chuckie Baby will join him now. The Gong Show was such an integral part of my childhood. I loved Chuck Barris. RIP
Gawd, what a reunion that must have been!
RIP Chuck! I wish everyone reading this a blessed day!!!
BLESSINGS TO YOU
3 YRS LATER‼️🙏🙏

Ahhhh Chuck RIP....you made so many good memories of my life.
And another chapter of my childhood closes. :(
RIP, Mr. Barris
Ikr!!😌
+Ted Vives.....I agree. This man was talented beyond belief. His I.Q. had to be extremely high.
RIP Chuck Barris, Johnny Jacobs, Charlie O'Donnell, Jim Lange, Geoff Edwards, John "The 🦊" Dorsey and Milton DeLugg, all of whom worked for Chuck Barris Productions!
Chuck you always made my day, because watching the Gong Show was always funny and entertaining. you were an original. they broke the mold after you. you will be missed very much
The greatest show ever on T.V. The Best times of my life. God Bless you CB, and thanks for all the fun & laughter.
He was so cool with the tux, cowboy hat and Les Paul on The Gong Show. Such a great person. Side note, who's the co-host next to Matt who knows nothing of history and says " a little before my time". Her knowledge of history begins when she wakes up and ends when she goes to bed. Chuck lived a full life, creative, funny, hip as hell, made millions and lived in the south of France! I appreciate Matts input, the two others should play with their building blocks. How do folks like this get a career in television?
I don’t know if Chuck was a happy man but he sure did make a lot of people happy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤and he was a funny guy I miss his show.
He brought light into our house with the Gong Show..i actually ran home from school as a kid so i could watch it with my mom in the afternoons
Godspeed to Chuck
I remember the Gong Show! I laughed till I had tears in my eyes. Chuck, Bist a mensh. Shalom.

"Did you know, supposedly, 3/4 teenagers in America today think that Chuck Berry was the host of the Gong Show" - Johnny Fever 1982. RIP Chuck & Chuck
I was just thinking of that remark!
He even survived lung cancer!
Rip Chuck you brightened our lives!
May you and Della find peace together

DEAD at 87. Only an American would broadcast in this manner.

I used to watched the gong show on channel four in 1985 to 1987 teatime Chuck barris RIP 😢
oh man I just heard the news I like the gong show I used to watch it all the time R.I.P Mr. barris
He also confessed that he had no CIA involvement that in a 1984 interview with Regis Philbin, on youtube.
Is no one going to talk about the fact that he was a hit man?
Salute to Chuck and all the fun on the Gong Show. Great memories...even though he pinched me! Ha!
Really? He pinched you?
He pushed me off the stage.
RIP Chuck Barris.
RIP Chuck and Matt.
Wow. I watched this because I did pick up the book he wrote about his side gig as a CIA Assassin and it was written in a way that I actually believed him. Who knows.
It's hotter where he is going! Ahh, the good life.
The gong show :::. The best is the best ........
The real talent show. This guy was a genius ...whoops Matt Laur ......well this is a bit old ..
