  • a family of pervs

  • kissed him on the lips????

  • @korgboy98 Not everyone is as repressed as you. In MANY cultures men kiss each other on the lips or cheeks as a sign of affection, respect, friendship, family, love or all of the above.

  • @grievousangel09

    Other cultures, but not this one. Despite your demeaning, charged term "repressed", korgboy is right in it is still unusual, and unusual in MOST cultures, not just us horrible, repressed, unaffectionate, unfriendly, unloving Americans.

  • this was the most touching things Ive seen other then the lion hugging the man after years of being separated. You can really see the love he has for his sons and the respect he has for his co-workers. Very nice clip, and thanks for posting this.

  • that was touching, but.... uh all the lip to lip with grown men to their dad was eww...

  • @walterkeathley Grow the fuck up

  • @atomus Uh, I was thinking that might have been mean. Seeing that you're probably liking the idea of kissing your daddy on the mouth. So go fuck yourself, ass.

  • @walterkeathley Well since you obviously see your father as a sexual figure - go fuck him!

  • @atomus You're a complete douche bag. I mean I openly expressed how I thought something was weird and I respond to your comment and you still seem to have trouble digesting some simple statements. Rather than sending a stranger a random remark, perhaps you should follow through with you're incest fantasy and not bash others if it seems to be contrary to what you like. Fuckstick.

  • @walterkeathley tl;dr

  • @atomus Is that the best you could do? Is that it? I didn't know I was conversing with a retard.

  • @walterkeathley Really? I knew I was dealing with retard from the start :D

  • @atomus I am going to say you voted for Obama, the level of stupidity is reflected here.

  • @walterkeathley And you're putting your level of stupidity display now because I don't even live in your country. Obviously I wouldn't have voted in anyone one of your nation's elections (nor would I care).

  • @walterkeathley Obama is my cousin. Screw you, buddy!

  • @frrrrrunkis Well I don't think I would brag right now about that. I'd give it another year from now when is no longer President, then that would have some clout.

  • @frrrrrunkis Still not a good reason by itself to vote for someone.

  • @Raidfreak Obama's not really my cousin, but the Republican candidates fuck theirs.

  • Kissing = love. Why can't the world just love one another?

  • @MrNickelCobalt One word: mononucleosis.

  • @gspendlove Well sure there's the spreading of diseases, but my main point really was for the haters. They're not using logic like you, but rather just hating on Richard Dawson for breaking a social norm.

  • he's a class act.

  • There was a negative comment about Richard kissing his son on the lips... My dad used to kiss me (female) and both my brothers on the lips. I still kiss my brothers on the lips.  It's the quickest of a kiss. I've seen lots of other people in my life do the same thing. Maybe it was a generational thing, regional, who knows. My dad died 10 years ago and I would give anything if he was still here to kiss me on the lips.

  • @22lyric yeah its nothing really to even talk about. society today is screwed up. sadly tv is a big reason why.

  • @22lyric No, I don't think it's a generational thing. There's simply people out there that miscontrue things negatively. And it's sad to see what goes on in their minds. There was nothing wrong with RD kissing his sons like that especially when he hasn't seen one of them in a long time. And like you, I miss my dad who died 12 years ago. Sone will never know the real meaning of love and devotion.

  • by the way, how the fuck is it homo to kiss your own son on the lips? i can see if it was a stranger, then yeah, that would be gay, but its his SON. he's not trying to get it on with him, he's just showing some affection. shit. why is that so wrong? i wish more parents these days would show affection

  • Comment removed

  • Even on his birthday, he got to kiss a random hot chick XD

  • Mannnn this Richard Dawson had so much swaaaagg!! The kissing now seems a little excessive, but it seems to be ok with them...although he kissed the young girls real creepily LMAO

  • I think this was back before it was wierd to show people affection. It was a different time, before women wore tight skimpy outfits and declared men are perverts for staring at them. When you could say sweetheart to a girl and she didn't call it sexual harrassment. Basically this was before political correctness.

  • @darcor2 Amen To That 

  • @darcor2 yo. youre a freakin idiot if you actually believe that shit. peace.

  • So very sweet. Mankind needs more of this.

  • @flowerofsilver and less of his perverted kissing on the lips of all the women including preteen girls.

  • a snuggie for your dog!

  • Howard is kinda hot. 

  • He is crying because of his son's hair!

  • He is crying because of his son's hair!

  • so sweet :)

  • nice surprise

  • He truly does kiss everyone... I thought he was jsut kinda creepy with the young women on the show

  • @peterbirkemose Even creepier that he kisses he's sons on the mouth.

  • @m100p true dat

  • Did he kiss his sons on the lips? WTF

  • @000aysh Yeah, there's plenty of sons and dads that do that, it's not that weird.

  • @jiffinbigles yeah? have fun then >.> i'm out

  • "Cake!"

    "Look up there."

    "Garter!"

    "Look up there."

    Steve Harvey would have did six dances, shook his head for a few minutes, asked the other family to "save him" and stared at the camera for a while. That's why Harvey can't compare to Dawson.

  • Gary Dawson was born with that white streak of hair on his head, much like comedian John Henson was born with a white streak of hair on his head.

  • I remember being obsessed with him when I was younger. He's adorable. Love the Feud, even the weird crappy version that's on today.

  • Such a sweet family—and from what I've seen on various shows, also really smart. I hope the mom is smart too.

  • I never saw this episode when I was younger. But these moments on TV in the older days brought us closer to the tube, unlike the garbage we see today.

  • What a fantastic TV moment!

  • I love watching things from the 70s and 80s. I wish that I was in high school then, not now where I was in High school in the early 2000s.

  • Did every man in the early '80s wear those damned Johnny Carson blazers?

  • at the time Howards clothes looked funny but now it looks in style, but those suits... !!! a little "Saturday Night Fever" fever??? lmao

  • I find it amazing with all the strides we've made in society that people have become more uptight. It's sad that a family showing affection is getting so many negative comments.

  • AWWWWWWWW :D

  • Looks like a badger.

  • whats up with his son's hair?

  • @couponsexpired 1980

  • IS HE GOING TO KISS HIM TOO MOTHERFUCKER KISSES EVERYBODY

  • THIS DUDE LOVE KISSING EVERYBODY HE KISS HIS SON IN THE MOUTH LETS ALL FUCKING KISS

  • THIS MAN LIKE KISSING ONLY THE YOUNG NOT THE OLD

  • Lemme tell ya something:  When your dad cries at the sight of you (in a good way, I mean), you're a lucky person.

  • i'm into son gary dawson's skunk stripes in his hair. that is cool!

  • That is some goddamn huge hair

  • Thank God Jimmy Carter didn't get a landslide. Ronald Reagan did!

  • @2008ljr

    Yes, and things have been so much better ever since.

    One of the first things Reagan did was to scrap all the alternative-energy programs Carter had put in place and to get the solar panels taken off the White House. And here we are, in wars for oil.

  • @emncaity You know what to say. Republicans try to justify their right to be selfish pigs. We should all strive to be more like Richard Dawson.

  • I agree with everyone who said they were fair giving both teams the right to play "Fast Money" and bring both back the next day.

  • I agree with wizziebaldwin, it's imbarrasing. OMG! someone kissed someone! but it's perfectly fine to go and murder people in other countries for no reason other than lies. It's ok for people to starve in American cities because the rich are eating. But look that person kissed another person! it's the end of the world! If you send money we will pray for you. did I get a little too carried away?

  • What in God's name is going on with Gary's hair?!

  • you can see the love in this family. how sweet that was. happy birthday richard.

  • åååååårh! The Dawsons is a Love-family! :D <3

  • poor Carter. Didn't win

  • I always loved him.

    Great English/American!!!!! He and Bob Hope!

  • So a father kissed his son on the lips? I don't see the issue here. I think some of us got a bit of growing up to do if this bothers us. Look at it this way, would you rather see that, or see people doing harm to eachother? I 've been watching the news and I think there's enough of that going on in the world. Just enjoy this heart-felt moment between a father and son. Don't sit at your computers and pick it apart.

  • I'm 100% American and can only think that most people commenting on a father kissing their sun are teenagers, but in my day it was quite common to see and understand this without question. There isn't anything wrong with it and any American thinking it's wrong is obviously quite young. Basically back in the 70's (and early 80s) it was very normal in the US and your last name didn't have to be Jackson either.

  • Americans, ignorant and uncultured that they are because they're separated by two oceans, are the biggest PRUDES next to the people from the middle east.

    In Europe its customary to kiss people, families kiss each other.

    That's normal. What's not normal is the way the USA views sex and sexuality!

  • @wizziebaldwin Don't put all Americans in the same category a ignorant and uncultured because it makes you look bad as well. Not all Americans are the way you perceive them.

  • That was very nice to watch. 

  • Richard Dawson (noun) A game show host who is witty, amazing, and always knows what he is doing.

  • 1:41

  • WHAT is going on with his son Garys hair. it lookks like the kid from recess , but stupid feathered eagle look

  • @eliaspratt It was 1980. Do you really need any further explanation?

  • @eliaspratt he was in england... lol

  • Seems like a good guy to me. I don't really know. As far as the kissing on the lips thing. Some families are that way. My friend growing up would kiss his Dad on the lips every once in a while. There was not a weird vibe about it or anything. It was just saying I love you. It took me back the first time I saw it but then I thought it was kind of neat. Boy has the world changed since the time of this show. I love how genuinely grateful he is for this acknowledgement.

  • Richard Dawson was born in Gosport, England. Born:

    Colin Lionel Emm

  • Thanks for posting this. I love all this older stuff, I was 15 at the time of this episode,things were so simpler.

  • those boys need a haircut Mr Dawson..get on it

  • @StoneCold75 lol,

  • Gross. He kisses everyone on the lips?

  • @this1goesout2u them Dawsons!

  • It's good to see that Peter Noone was able to present Richard with a cake.

  • What the fuck happened to that kids hair did someone smack him with a paintbrush?

  • @paulallan1000 probably he (Gary Dawson) was going prematurely gray, a la Anderson Cooper or " that the"werewolf" look was in style back in 1980 or maybe he thought gray on the temple's was cool, in other words, who cares?

  • @narutomustgonow It was 1980 and he lived in England. He was obviously going for the New Wave look.

  • once i realized who those random ppl were, I went back and reviewed the first part again. A very sweet moment :)

  • Apparently the Dawsons are kissers... Richard just gives 'em away.

  • @bozzutoman wow.. yeh .really. thought he was on his own. But they're just all kissers

  • very touching. what a nice man.

  • did he just kiss his dad on the lips at 1:33?? oo eerr- he just did it again at 1:55!

  • did he just kiss his dad on the lips at 1:33?? oo eerr

  • he was the best host ever, the game was never the same after him :-)

  • The Larson family must hate the Dawson family, because of their little Birthday party they never got a proper entrance!

  • @samuricex They did on the next show. Both families were brought back. And in this episode both families got to play fast money. Not a bad deal at all.

  • when people actually weren't made of plastic!

  • Omg so he kissed his sons on the lips, big deal!!! Get over it, if that's how he shows his affection, and its acceptable for him and them, then so what?? Let him. It seems as though he doesn't see them that much. This is a very touching moment

  • @d9y8l7a6n5 I totally agree. All the Walton boys (Walton's Mountain) called their father "Daddy" and I find no fault with that either. My father died in 1983 and I was nearly 40 years old. Until the last minute - I called him Daddy (of my own chioce).

  • @d9y8l7a6n5 I kiss my dad on the lips because I love him. No homo.

  • @d9y8l7a6n5 what about when he kissed preteen girls on the lips? The guy was a pervert.

  • @bluestriker4444 Different era hon

  • @WingsOfDay Ummm no. In no era has it ever been ok for a man in his 40s to kiss a 12 year old girl on the lips and he isnt even related to her. Sick sick sick. Shame on the old perve.

  • Snugies for your dog?...I thought they already had snugies?...Fur?...

  • its so funny these old game show clips get more recent viewings than a lot of current videos! what is it about these old clips??

  • is this the first time they played fast money twice

  • those suites kick ass

  • Were those kids conceived in a POW camp?

  • Were thos kids conceived in a POW camp?

  • Didn't that guy play Lilly on the Munsters?

  • Ahhh those dreaded birthdays!

  • gary looks like a skunk

  • Absolutely love this episode. My grandmother watches these old shows and told me about this episode, I dashed home to view it on the PC. Love you Richard!!!

  • This episode aired at 9 AM eastern this morning on GSN.

  • And what the hell is with "Gary's" hair??? He kisses everyone on the lips!!! His producer!!!!

  • And what the hell is with "Gary's" hair???

  • And what the hell is with "Gary's" hair???

  • Kiss the boy on the lips!!!  GROSS!

  • Nice hair.

  • ...i still love this show! and i couldn't stop crying, that was soooo touchng, thanks! :)

  • that lips kissing thing creeped me out

  • @kormastas I still kiss my grandfather and father on the lips sometimes and I'm 20 (and a guy). They're 55 and 80!

  • @estupido7490 well i do kiss but on the cheek and forehead and hand but really the lips???

  • I had no idea Richard was Philip Seymour Hoffman's father.

  • Happy Birthday Richard!!!!

    11/20/2010, 30 years after.

    Happy 78th Birthday!!!!!

  • is the person holding the cake a boy or a girl??? o.o

  • Comment removed

  • *cringe* I can't imagine kissing my dad on the lips every time I greeted him O.O

  • The first son looks like a hairy ogre, and the second looks like a lesbian. WTF.

  • It's a great video - nice to see real emotion! FYI, I have always kissed my children & grandbabies on the mouth. It's just a smooch. What's so disgusting?

  • Ohh boy! A snuggie for my dog! lol but seriously what a great moment!

  • I'm from America and my sisters, my mom, and I all kiss each other on the lips. As for like Aunts and uncles, we kiss on the cheek.

  • awwwwwwwww

  • Regarding the kissing deal, keep in mind that Dawson is English and the Brits go about their lives a little difference than us... "chips" are french fries and they usually use mayo instead of ketchup on them.

  • @siriusjs yeah, I'm British and we do do some things differently. Kissing on the lips is no big deal (at least, not in Scotland anyway, I'm not sure about England) especially if it's a member of your family! But I have to say that I don't know anyone who puts mayo on their chips! :P

  • @siriusjs This is why the US had no choice but to revolt.

  • Im guessing american familys like to kiss all their children in the mouth, its not a diss or an insult, i just never thought it was something familys did.

  • @Johncarson9113 I would say that most American families do not kiss their children on the mouth, at least not mine:)

  • @richie60647 im canadian, it happens here xD

  • @Johncarson9113 That would be wrong. I don't know any families (here in America) that kiss their kids in their mouths. That's disgusting.

  • He obviously loved his children very much.

  • @RobNLynchburgVA of course he did!

  • I think I just saw that "Name stuff saved from a wedding" question on a Ray Combs episode...

  • I loved this one! The look on Richard's face at 1:46...priceless!

  • i love richard dawson..havn't the foggiest why people don't like him :L

  • Richard must've fucked an owl.

  • Did he really kiss the dude on the mouth???

  • @datpiff8910 its his son...

  • Wow Gary and Mark are the spitting image of their Mum the fabulous and sadly missed Diana Dor's lovely lads

  • This is so sweet. But the Larsons must be thinking: heck.. we can't see a thing!

    They are still standing behind the screen. LOL

  • Wow, I was in third grade when this was taped/aired. It aired on my mom and dad's 10th Anniversary.

  • Oh my god hahahahaa the best part was when you paused on the dog snuggy hahahaha ahhh

    this is an adorable episode

  • Awwww, that was sweet and funny at the beginning...I must have missed this one, because I don't remember it.

  • I always loved when the network daytime game shows would be decorated for the holidays. Really miss simpler times like this, quality entertainment without the need for millions of dollars to be at stake, or backstabbing so-called "reality" trash.

  • Richard Dawson - a game show host with a pure heart of gold (and a sense of humour to match).

  • @quizmaster85 Well said =)
