7:20 I grew up watching the Lawrence Well Show each Saturday , and they were always clean and family oriented ! Today , alot of us older people really appreciate shows like Lawrence Welk , as they bring back fond memories of a by gone era !!
I was 5 years old at this time. I remember when children were allowed to have Christmas programs. I always looked forward to Christmas back at this time. We did not have a lot of gifts but we had the best times. I love this very much.
I was 10 in 1972. We watched this show every week.
OK, here we go, memory lane time. This show originally aired on Saturday, December 23, 1972. I had just turned 18 a week prior and was a senior in high school. The evening this was shown, I wanted to watch the movie “Holiday Inn”. We also had good friends of my folks visiting and they came over this night. My dad had told me to keep a low profile as they wanted to visit the friends, which was fine as I wanted to watch the movie. Never worked out. My dad would come in where I was watching and have me come out to talk, make drinks, take pictures with the Polaroid, visit, be part of their evening, and that was fine. We later went and got pizza as we got hungry. All in all, it was a great time.
Back when tv was great to watch. What happened to shows like this. Innocent TV when families were close and it didn't matter how perfect everything had to be. Merry Christmas and God bless every one.
I agree 100 percent.
So true.....
Tears In My Eyes I Sure Loved Watching These Shows As A Little Girl. Our Family Would Sit Around And Watch Every Time It Was On. Sure Would Love Another Moment Watching This With Our Family All Together.❤💕
These beautiful little children are all in their 50's and 60's today! Time flies by too fast.
+Laurie I was born in 1956, and probably I`m almost the same age as those little kids in this TV program. I`m totally agree with you, and I feel strongly that time flies by too fast when I look at my own face on the mirror.
I was the same age as Clay Hart's little girl Lizzie. I was nine in 1972.
There will never be another show to top the Lawrence well shows..they all were so professional all American..so nice they kept them on for so many years..miss all the beauty and talent.
My Grandmother tortured me with this show when I was a kid. But now that I'm also old I finally "get it" And if it made Grandma happy, then I'm also happy. Just to spend one more day with my dear sweet Grandma watching a show I hated would be worth it's weight in gold.
my grandparents ALWAYS had Lawrence Welk on every Saturday and I was a sucker for their attention. So I went back and just quietly watched with them on their Zenith Console! Oh how I wish I could have them back. I can still visit their home, but it sadly has nothing in it any longer....only a shell. I thank God that I had grandparents who simply loved me and let me hang out. What a cherished time. Perhaps once we are joined again in Heaven, we can have far more elated times than we ever knew on this earth.
Same here
Many a Satruday night at my grandparents watching Lawrence Welk.
You too?
@@larryn1929 Me too. I'm 57 and atill watch it to this day. They were the reason I still watch it too. My grandma died the year before this show aired and my grandpa died in 1986.
I was 8 when this was made and was watching it at my grandmother's house
I was 6 and it was always at my Grandmother's house where this played. hehe
I think I watched this at our rental house.
I just turned 22 that October, May I turn 70 October 20 20
I was 15, and it was with parents.
If I get a hold of a time machine.... who's coming back with me ?
I am!..if the machine is taking me back to when this episode first aired...probably the day I was born, lol!..ooh, just checked...yep, let's go
Hey , wait for me !
@@heatherboster1937 my daughter was a year old at the time this show was aired.
Me.
Me too please!
it's so hokey it's great! something you can take refuge in, if you're 50-plus and weary of these toxic times.
my mom sand "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" in church every year when I was growing up, When Guy and Ralna started sing it, I just burst into tears!! Loved it!!
My grandma watched Lawrence Welk every week. I watched it with her many times, because we lived next door. We buried her Thanksgiving day 1972. This was the first Lawrence Welk Christmas show after she died.
So beautiful Christmas program!!! It will be so wonderful to have this type TV programs again!!!❤
Those adorable tykes are in their 50’s and 60’s now. Swiftly fly the years.
I am watching this show with tears in my eyes, as it takes me back to my childhood, my late Mum loved this show! I would watch the special with her. Christmas was her favourite. It was so sweet to watch this with all the singers & their children,& Lawence seemed so supportive of them...now days any Christmas specials that are on just don't have the same magic.. Thank you very much for sharing this!
Same. Because it reminded me of sing a longs with my mom
I feel exactly the same way....I watched these Christmas specials back in the early 70's .....they still move me....
I'm watching this show from Ireland ☘now 2021 Christmas eve it's a Fabulous tv📺show as we never received this
In Ireland it's great we can watch them all on youtube today just goes to show America always had Talent 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The mr Magog Christmas holiday show
how I wish we all could go back to 1972, Merry Christmas
1972 was one of the best years in my life. 17 and not a care in the world. Give me those days anytime. sure beat this day in time. Merry Christmas to you also.
@@MrHans818 not me, I was eight years old and my parents just got divorced.... Made for a terrible Christmas
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you all, from Natchitoches, Louisiana 😁😉
calmeblondy -Agree! Those were great times!
November 2020 COVID-19 - eleven months ago we could not ever imagine that This kind of Christmas would not be happening to us this year . So just watching this now is a special treat .
it is sad i don't think we will ever have chrismas's like this ever again modern day has taken the magic out of it
99% recovery rates. Meds that are proven to work. The Right To Try. You HAVE options. Don't let the fearmongers ruin life anymore! They'll never give freedom back once you imprison yourself willingly. CDC actually said that the ACTUAL death rates were less than 10k exclusively from the virus. ALL other numbers were including many other reasons & comorbidities for death but the virus itself did NOT cause the death. As with any other flu or virus - you isolate the vulnerable & elderly. NOT the healthy & especially NOT children.
It's time to END this.
Kathy Florcruz Healthy 40 year old teachers and nurses don’t die of the flu nor do LTC facilities have high proportions of the population dying. You took an overdose of your idiot pills when you wrote this.
My grandma on mom's side loved Lawrence Welk. When I was little she tried to get me to dance to his music with her while she held my hands. It was fun but I was shy and had no idea how to dance lol.
Love the show very much. Brings back good memories of growing up and watching the Lawrence Welk on Saturday night's with my family.
Lawrence welk and his wonderful dancers singers and band really said Christmas thanks for the memories
As a kid I made fun of this stuff when my grandmother watched it. Today, I can't get enough of it. It brings back great memories of those Christmases back then. Does anyone have the 1968 Welk Christmas special? That was a great one. I've been trying to track that one down for a couple of decades.
haha.. I was just thinking exactly the same thing as I cam across this comment.. Merry Christmas to you and yours.. :)

WOW 1972!!!....The early 70's was THEE best years of my childhood life and for my family as well. I would trade all ( what's left of it ) of my tomorrows to relive 1971-1975 again and forever ...
ponchai allen My mom disagrees with you. She said 1972 wasn’t that great.
yes! and...And feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee, yeah
La da da, la da daa, la da daa da daa da daa...
I watched this with my grandparents as a teenager.
Janis and my grandparents are missed.
Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas ponchai allen.
1972 wasn't my favorite year. My grandmother had died in November of 1971 and my mother insisted we move out of the house where I had lived all my life. We were building a house ten miles away from the school I attended since 1st grade. My third grade was a horrible year because of my teacher. She was a very mean woman and treated me badly all year, I was told back then to listen to all adults and I was the child and they were the adults and you were supposed to do what they said or you'd get whipped. That woman made my life Hell on earth. I went to a new school in 1972 and we lived in a rental house until our "new" house was built. That year was even worse than the year before. I was picked on and name called. I.was depressed and stayed in my room all the time. Then we moved into my grandpa's house which was within walking distance of my old school.
So would I
I watched Faithfully
1973...and now...2020

☺i still watch the reruns of this at 44yo i still enjoy it.memorys up at my GR8 grandmother house watching this after dinner💛❤ i miss thoses good shows & gr8 grandma Huber pinkerton .thats gr8 we all have some good memorys of a better time .
We watched this as a family every week! So fun to go down memory lane. Guy and Ralna were my favorites!
My favorites were The Semonski Sisters in 1975 until they left and then The Otwell Twins. I fell in love with them I watched The Lawrence Welk Show until it left.the air and then I started watching it on PBS. I look forward to Saturday night because I watch this. Now my favorite ones are The Lennon Sisters and still The Otwell Twins.
As a child I loved the dance numbers and the group numbers. I remember songs being in two categories, "fast or slow" I remember the joy of a fast song and the "drats it's a slow one"😂 thankful my musical understanding has matured a bit in 50 years. Love the Lawrence Welk show. So many happy memories. I learned to love music in part b/c of the show.
What lovely programs every week that highlighted what is good, true and beautiful. From the music to the costumes and sets. America was better for this show ❤️
My grand mom also never missed the welk program every week it made her happy Miss you grandmom
My Grandmother loved this show
I was 11 years old in 1972. My parents use to watch the show. The guy had a lot of class.
My grandmother 💗'd this show, too!
Great shows always but especially at Christmas, just precious ! :)
I loved watching this show when we visited my grandma. I don't think we got this channel on our TV. But I totally enjoyed it. 😊😊😊 Wish they would make wholesome shows like this again.
16:21 the 2 kids on the piano is just wonderful.. sweet
Used to watch this at my Grandaddys house. What a magical Christmas they always had when we were young. Hudson's flagship store, Santa, the display windows..back when Detroit was still great in the 50s. But visits for 2 decades after always had LW & Billy Graham & Mutual of Omaha Wild Kingdom on TV.
I was 1 when this was broadcast. Its neat to watch. One of my favorite shows as a child. This and Hee Haw.
Beautiful couple with great singing voices ❤
I just finished watching the LW show from 1959 the year I was born. At the end of the show Mr. Welk wished everyone a holy and blessed Christmas. Imagine people saying that on a tv show now. In only 61 years we have gone so far the wrong way it's never coming back. Oh well.... MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY !!
Oh my goodness. I forgot how cute Sandys little girl 👧 was.
What a treat! Just loved to watch Lawrence Welk every Saturday night with my mom and twin sister! Such wholesome and and refreshing entertainment!
Mon and Dads Favorite T.v. show. Miss them both, and my older brother.. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🌲🌲🌲🎅🎅🎅 ❤ YOU!!!
My moms favorite never missed a show!
Now at 72 I realize too late
She was right!

Thanks - That's why we post these shows!
Thinking of my Granny Lil. She loved this show. She always wanted to dance with Mr. Welk.
What great memories of a time gone bye! Always loved watching this with my mom!
Love watching the reruns of the shows I hated as a kid. I remember all my old relatives , now gone over forty years ago, running home after dinner to watch the shows. Now I invite them all to join me when I watch. Days were precious then.
I loved watching this show when I was young good family times
Merry. Christmas. Love. This. Show 🎄
and me too as well :)
It's new year already and I'm still listening and watching Christmas shows
SWEET LITTLE JESUS BOY ~ MAGNIFIQUE.
Thank you Sir Lawrence Welk and performers, I arrived in the USA in 1972 at the age of seventeen and stayed. I thought I had accompanied family here and would go back in a couple of years. Instead I reconciled living here and in other parts of the world by working by Trans World Airlines. Thank you for all the magical moments and weaning me from home country making this one my home. We watched your show every time you were on.
Those were the days.☹❣
My parents watched it all the time. I was to busy with rock and roll.
As A Fan Of The 50's And 60's Music Genra, That I Love The
Lawrence Welk Show. The Children Were Adorable.
Love The Song: Little Lady Make
Believe.
God Bless Lawrence Welk And Our
PBS Stations WEAO and WNEO DTV 45/49 For Carrying These
Quality Shows.
All My Love.
David K.Dr.d. God Bless You All.
It's a shame that PBS stations have dropped TLWS. They don't care about the older audiences out there.
And they sure don't care about what the kids programs are teaching either - perverts.
@@kathyflorcruz552 I agree. You must be talking about Arthur.
@@sheriheffner2098 Yes. And they jumped on the whiteguilting of children too. Disgusting.
@@kathyflorcruz552 Yes it is.
What the heck are you talking about? It's still shown on Saturday nights at 7 p.m. where I live!
The beauty of the interwebz... my kids can watch the wholesome shows of yesterday.
I loved watching Lawrence welk, with my nana
Yep
Me too!!!
Okay I am officially old I was born in the 70s and couldn't stand the Lawrence Welk Show I'm in my forties now and I love this LOL
I,m way officially old, born in the mid fifties.. in my sixties now
I stumbled on it but I don't quite love it yet.
Love the mob cap on the Raggedy-Anne, heck enjoy the walk through a view of Americana erased by judicial activism.
oh my God, I love this, I used to think this show was corny, now I love it
It seems corny but so fun and sweet natured...i grew up watching this.....with my parents and brother...R.I.P. all
The year I was born. I loved this show
Thanks for the Memories I was about one year out of college when this aired I'm not sure I've ever seen it before but it's sure good to go back to a different time.
I remember watching LW as a child with my great grandmother -she loved LW
Tom Leeds - little did you know you were watching pedophiles!
@@richardwebb2348 I looked it up and OMG! Yes, it was Bob Ralston
They cut off Santa handing the presents to the kids de! That was always such a delight for me as a child!
My favorite part as a child.
Mine too. I guess the interview was more important to them.
I really enjoy watching the Christmas programs on The Lawrence Welk Show my favorite is Arthur Duncan and Joe Feeney singing o Holy night 🌃🎄🎁
I was not born until 1973 but I still like to watch these classics.
I love this
The little blonde girl singing Twinkle twinkle little star is so beautiful ⭐️☃️
I miss 1972
2021 this Christmas🎄Show 🧸is still the best ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just wonderful! SOoooooo enjoying this... Thanks and Merry Christmas! :)
Thank You For Posting!..Hadn't Seen This Since It Filmed!..Thank God For Video Tape!
Glad you liked it. Johnny Zell! Any relation?
Yes ..I Am Trumpeter Johnny Zell's First Born!..:)
Watch his show every Saturday night never forget the geritol commercials now I take them 🤔
I remember those Geritol commercials too.
oh yes Maxine, that Geritol tonic for the older folks. Now my turn lol
I have heard the saying “Took Geritol put a hole in the wall.” 😀
My First Christmas I was born in June 1972..My Grandmother was a big Welk dan even back then..
Brings back many good memories ! Grampa loved to watch the show. He would sit in his rocker, smoke two kinds of cigs. (plain & menthol), drink a bowl of coffee. He was an old sailor and had simple needs to make him happy. Miss him dearly.
Oh my goodness these children are just killing me. They are so precious! 💖 It’s hard to believe they are now in their 50s. I was 10 years old when this was on the air. My mom and grandma loved The Lawrence Welk show and I spent many nights watching the program with them, and I too fell in love with the show. So many memories are wrapped up in the program. 💖 Thank you for posting.
How I treasure these memories.
Me also my senior year of high school
What a wonderful holiday season
Me, too, I was only a year-old when that show aired!
Little Lawrence the third was adorable. And so was little Jenny Griffiths. I suppose she and little Larry III were about the same age. That little Jenny singing is precious. 🥰🤗. She should have became a singer when she got older. Like the Lennon Sisters.
I was brought up on this. My dad loved it. I was 4 for this one.
I soo enjoyed this show!
absolutely wonderful THANK YOU ! ( i could say sooo much more but i wont ... MERRY XMAS !!! )
Man I miss those days, when America still had patriots and the News was mostly honest
Thank you
I actually remember this show from the time I was old enough to watch tv and when it was in black and white. It actually started in the late 50's or early 60's. I remember being really small and all I wanted to watch was the bubbles that floated all over the place, when the show was first coming on. LOL I so wanted to be there to see what it would be like to be in a room full of bubbles.
When I was in Middle School or what they used to call Junior High, my friend Martha said her father would sing Tiny Bubbles when Lawrence Welk came on. But that song was about Wine, not Champagne.
LW was too square for my mom when I was growing up. Now that she's 70, and I'm 49, how do I tell her how much I like this?
Tell her...tell her NOW!!! And ENJOY together!!!
I'm 67 and I loved the show...our family watched every Sat night.
I couldn't stand lw growing up now I love this. I am 45 and my mom is gone but she would have a good laugh if she knew
@@kaitlynleehagar1148 I think we're in the same boat. My dad passed a few years ago. Listening to relaxing music is passé today, but I'm all for it. Merry Christmas.
Just had to add another comment to agree with many of the comments that Something terribly tragic was attempted on our American society
This show and many more like it are no longer seen This was a wholesome family show that gave worthy tribute to the meaning of Christmas and to our families and our children
Where has it all gone?
I can only imagine it won’t be good
al meggs Could it be possible that that type of programming has been sacrificed on the alter of “political-correctness?” Here in Canada, our publicly-funded broadcaster is the “Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.” As a child growing up in the sixties, I used to enjoy watching on the CBC Christmas programming such as the Alistair Sim classic “A Christmas Carol,” and people also enjoyed the perennial favourite “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” But because they reference “Jesus,” you’ll never see them on that network again!
Very tragic for our country
@Bob Sebring thTs a vile remark
It's because Boomers wanted their rampant sexual revolution and divorce-now-because-I-saw-my-spouse-picking-his-nose-and-no-it-doesn't-have-anything-to-do-with-the-hot-co-worker-I-just-met-whom-I-will-elope-with-then-divorce-five-years-later mentality.
There is good & evil in our world. This is truly GOOD. We can decide what were going to be...good or...
Wonderful. Woderful
Missed these as I joined the Navy in 1972..
This so adorable.
I’d give almost anything to have (a sense of) family back again, despite the imperfection of it all. Better still, if I could put a wiser head on the past times, the imperfections would not have the degree of detriment they once had. 😊
This is the first time I heard Arthur Duncan sing..
As a child in the mid sixties living in a small town , I thought this show was the norm as I became older and the sixties turned into the seventies this show was square on a grand scale . Although it is all very well done .
love this video
Was researching this due to the snl parody but now I just want to build a time machine and stay there. Adios, au revoir, auf weidersehen till then
