kissy kissy kissy! I LOVE IT! If anyone did this on tv today then the whole country would be offended, offended, offended! haha! It just goes to show that humanity doesn't have to make a big deal out of most things. But that's not what we are being taught these days. These days everyone , all the time is offended by everything. The beginning of the end of society has begun!
+roamer45 Female contestants were asked by producers if they wanted to be kissed by Richard before the show, and after over 2,000 episodes he kissed a lot of women so they were obviously in favor of it. Besides its a peck on the lips, not a make out session.
Great show! Sad time has to move on in some ways. To be fair, the fast-money question at the end ought to have been "A type of car a rich man would own?", rather than "Something a rich man might own?" -- something is too vague. Love Richard Dawson, he was the best Family Feud host (the host just after him was ok too).
Ok here's the story on him kissing the ladies from Wikipedia: One of Dawson's trademarks on Family Feud, kissing the female contestants, earned him the nickname The Kissing Bandit. Television executives repeatedly tried to get him to stop the kissing.[7] After receiving criticism for the practice, he asked viewers to write in and vote on the matter. The mail response was 704 against and 14,600 in favor.[8] On the 1985 finale, Dawson explained that he kissed contestants for love and luck, something his mother did with Dawson himself as a child.[1][9] Some viewers complained when he kissed the cheeks of non-white women, but in a 2010 interview he defended his actions, saying that "It's very important to me that on Family Feud I could kiss all people... I kissed black women daily and nightly on Family Feud for 11 years, and the world didn’t come to an end, did it?"[7]
From what I understand they did not. Following RD's departure from MG, GR never mentioned RD's name in any interviews other than a TV Guide interview from the 1990's where he mentioned RD was good on the show in the beginning but later became withdrawn. MG's producer would play backgammon with RD between takings to keep him up and asked him if he was happy. RD said he wasn't and finally quit in 1978, according to GR.
what i dont get is when they group up they are discussing an answer but yet when they go to tell it to the lead shes like what are some awnsers like bitch did you not discuss it with your family
Was this before or after he started hitting the booze and groping the female contestants? He always seemed to get a little too friendly with the women on the show, lol.
He did not drink. He has said at various points that he dislikes alcohol. That would probably explain partly why he never joined his fellow Match Game panelists for dinner when they broke for dinner between tapings. He said in an interview circa 1978 that he's never been hung over in his life.
@@crissrudd4554 Thank you, Crissrudd4554 So sorry to see Dickie Dawson's name run through the trash with pathetic disgusting rumors. Richard Dawson (Colin Lionel Emm 1932 - 2012) neery a Truer Gentleman GOD Bless Dickie Dawson
Richard was so funny in this episode. I like how he was prolonging when he was suppose to reveal the last episode during the 3rd round. The was the head of the Moya family was acting. Lol
Richard Dawson was a class act-Thanks for posting!
Learned something about asparagus. Now will buy a few cans this week. Ha ha.
Godbless Richard which he was on two different game shows and made his fans smile more, rest in peace and your family in heaven
He was also a game show host in the movie "The Running Man" with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
there will never be another mr rick dawson. show was never da same after him, not even close. he was d best gameshow hos PERIOD
He Never went by Rick!
awesome episodes. It brings back memories watching this show again.
That simple asparagus conversation and the horoscope one is why Richard Dawson was a class act.
I miss these when the questions were legitimate trivia requiring actual knowledge.

Miss the old days they were great times unlike 2021
I like Richard Dawson better I don't care if he kissed the women. He was a kind man
He really was a genuinely kind man, there was no bad intentions with giving the women a kiss. Something people today don't understand.
This episode is definitely a 1977 episode. I had my 78 and 77 shows backwards!
a kiss is a simple means of affection, or in Dawson's case - a wish of luck. I wish we as a people could get back to that

You want to wish people good luck? Say you wish them good luck. No need to kiss them. I can't believe people were even debating this.
They did a poll at one time about him kissing and it was overwhelmingly one sided that people didn't mind it
then why didn't he kiss the men?

The good old days before ghetto Harvey 🤣
Pretty sure I've seen 1978 before, but not 1977, so this makes me happy.
Never forget.

My Fast Money answers...
1. Potato
2. The Tin Man
3. Food blender
4. Swimming pool
5. Cat
And we will never know if that would have won the fast money for them.
Glad that was then and not kissing guys like today might be.

OAD: Thursday, December 22, 1977
In fact, this episode's OBD was December 22, 1977 MatchGameProductions.
Are you sure? I had this marked down as 1978 for the longest time. It's hard to tell when you record the programs in marathons!
love Richard Dawson he was definitely a ladies man lol R.I.P. Richard you are missed but never forgotten
Great show! Sad time has to move on in some ways.

when it was a lot cleaner and not so many disgusting tally wacker jokes
The kisses remind me of the "blessing of the brides" in Braveheart. Just saying...
They didn't win cause of that goofy horoscope.
Ok here's the story on him kissing the ladies from Wikipedia:

And woman always wanted to kiss him on Match Game! And did in every episode.
Richard Dawson was a genuinely good man.

Go back through time and save the World Trade Center.
I agree
I live in west covina!
Did Gene Rayburn and Richard stay friendly after he left Match Game?
I don't think so. In fact in any interview Gene Rayburn did after the Match Game (1973-82) he mentions every other regular but Richard Dawson.
From what I understand they did not. Following RD's departure from MG, GR never mentioned RD's name in any interviews other than a TV Guide interview from the 1990's where he mentioned RD was good on the show in the beginning but later became withdrawn. MG's producer would play backgammon with RD between takings to keep him up and asked him if he was happy. RD said he wasn't and finally quit in 1978, according to GR.
is this the episode with the jones family reached 300 hounred dollars
Yo estoy aquí para ver qué es lo que veía Patricia Uris en la novela de IT el día que Stan se suicido
I only like Richard on family Feud and now Steve Harvey 2014
Steve Harvey is one ugly Buck.
super blue John O'Hurley is the best host for Family Feud.
i cant stand Steve Harvey hes a freakin perv
Richard was the best!
The kissing thing was creepy. He got away with it back then, but no way would that work today.
angelthman Grow up.
The kisses were light and good luck "symbols".
+MrUhwoody Amen!
+angelthman XXX
+George Master - Ya, I noticed they were light too, it's not like he made out with them or anything
what i dont get is when they group up they are discussing an answer but yet when they go to tell it to the lead shes like what are some awnsers like bitch did you not discuss it with your family

The kisses were meant as a way of saying good luck and it was something his mother did when he was younger he said later on
