  • This was my moms generation but after watching this, they are a real life raggedy ann and andy.

  • Gosh I used to love this show!

  • It's so weird that fashion has come full circle so that either one of them could pass for a teen idol of 2011, but only from the sternum up (I pray that high waisted bell bottoms will never again be cool).

  • whitest people ever lmao

  • my cousin and i would re enact the skits and numbers and we both had the records and , yes, 8-tracks. this silly show was a big part of my young life and now fond memories

  • the good ol' days how I miss them

  • were did all the innocence go?Now babies are having babies...

  • I remember as a real young kid watching Donnie & Marie on Friday night. I always liked it when Donnie sang, he was cool, exciting, in a very lame way as I see it now, but the show ground to a halt when Marie sang he lame sleepy songs with that lame rose picture behind her. She killed the show every time she was on. Donnie made it work.

  • haha, he nearly fell at 5:15

  • @Deadi11 lol

  • LOL

  • @Deadi11 you watched this shit 5 min long ?

  • @basslinegenerator i watched the whole thing and i'd do it again and again.

  • me encanta 

  • WOW! Thanks for this memory, I remember waiting all week for this show! I'm blown away by that but whatever, I was maybe 9? LOL

  • ahh those were the days..when us white people didnt know we couldent dance..

  • @vickizspace Pitiful Pearl was an Ugly Betty doll of the 50s. You must be very careful as a youtuber to not put all dolls, dead or alive, in the same category. Pitiful Pearl, like the extinct Dodo Bird, was beautiful to the eye of her beholder--me holded her. The Twilight Zone did an episode about The Pig People being beautiful and the Classical Beautiful Woman who got plastic surgery was so ugly to The Pig People, they ran away from her in horror. So you just never know. Consider killer Chucky.

  • @redfordforpresident Of course fathers do murders. Every TV show since forever evidenced this becoz the television moms always said, "Just wait till your father gets home. He's going to murder you". I know. (I just switched my Tom Terrific thinking cap). And all the TV kids, to this very television day, say, "My dad's going to kill me". Some of them get killed too. Bill Cosby told Theo, "I brought you into this world and I can take you out". Just Dial M for Manson; Charley M. is Jesus-handsome.

  • @vickizspace She has a line of modestly dressed dolls. Marie Osmond is the anti-Sharon Tate, murdered by the inspired Charles Manson Family because she was the model for Malibu Barbie. A whole new generation flocked to the beaches, polluting them with their menstrual blood when their tampons got too wet drawing Jaws to the shore. Plus killing the poor sea turtle babies who barely make it past extinction anyway. Son of Sam told the cops seances happen and the dads do murders, conjured up.

  • This makes me want to jump up on that stage and take a large steaming crap, right in the middle of it.

  • @chthonic19 g.g. allin shat for all of us

  • Everyone speaks of forgotten times and an age of innocence. However, this was the disco era, the era of excess. Donny and Maria were the butt of people's jokes back then. They ranked right up socially with Justin Beiber and Bristol Palin.

  • GO GO GO Donnie shake that groovy thang

    

  • That is good singing for talents

  • Remember watching this when it aired!

  • this is when you actually had to have talent to be famous!

  • I don't believe in God, but I do believe in a Goddess, and I have since I was 11 when I first saw her on Television, she was 13 and I was in love, and still am, my one unfulfilled dream is to meet her in person.... I love you Marie.

  • I hope they're wearing their protective mormon underwear.

  • Hey i love this song she is beautiful

  • can any body make out what Donny sings when he sings really quickly

  • @HIStory1387 Here it is! But to be honest, the lyrics are not officially accurate, since he sings SO fast. But, it has the vast majority. I hope this will help. The song is called, "Old Man Auctioneer".

    "Five hundred twenty five. Will ya’ give me thirty. Make it thirty bid-a-for-a thirty

    dollar, will ya give me thirty-five - five? Make it forty. Will ya gimme forty?

    Will ya’ gimme forty-five - five. Make it fifty. Will ya’ gimme fifty? Will ya’

    gimme fifty-five - five - five - five - five?"

  • this video takes me back

  • This brother & Sister performance says it all, Opposite's Attract, you can't help love your family, even if tastes differ.. It is still a nice song.

  • Can anyone tell me what song does Marie sing in the beginning?

  • @willannlobo This I Promise You

  • very little

  • As a kid in the early seventies, the Osmonds and Evil Kanevil were the two top acts of the time.

  • Gosh..look at Marie. So pretty then. Brings back a smile to this 41 year old. 

  • Not sure how much you can say " I'm a little bit Rock and Roll" in that pick shirt.

  • The Osmonds were great, an age of innocence we could all use today.

    Marie was always my dream girl...

    Donny my idol...

    I even had purple socks..

    remember that????

  • @opctom1 on what planet were the 1970's an age of innocence??!!

  • @thetwinkleturnip

    There is no such thing as an "age of Innocence." Not the 1970s, 1960s or 1950s or ANY decade. Its all a question of who is aware and who is not of what's going on. There was just as much perverse and extreme behavior in the 1950s as any other time. Its an illusion we need - thats all.

  • @PicnicHikeMusic but by the 1970s one couldn't even claim ignorance is bliss. by this point nearly everyone had a television and mass media was well established.

  • I remember this show fondly. Both of them were and still are very talented.

  • The one thing I remember about these guys when I was a kid was there teeth!! Terrifying!!

  • LOVE the Osmonds!!! Sure beats all this reality crap and uber-violent tv shows on now. Jersey Shore and other trash bins like this can't hold a candle to people who actually had to have TALENT to be on tv!

  • LOVE the Osmonds!!!

  • Marie was beautiful then, and even more beautiful now. Pure beauty!

  • INTERVIEW WITH DONNY OSMOND: :( I can't believe it! It really sucks to hear this!)

    The musical performances: Were any of those live?

    Everything was prerecorded. I remember getting a letter from Shure because we used their microphones. We added fake antennas. So we get this note that says, “What did you do to our microphones?” We were lip synching so well, they said, “We want this technology; we are willing to buy it.”

  • How come I can't "share" Donnny and Marie with Facebook? :(

  • the Osmonds are such a wonderful family- talented and famous yet still human, not spoiled and nasty while ordinary jealous wanna-be's with no excuse can't even be polite on the internet much less in real life

  • I'm glad to have found this video. I'd forgotten how cheesy Donny and Marie actually were.

  • very nice/of russia

  • The way Donny and Marie look today is a statement for "clean living" - we may make fun of them, but look how they've held up!!!

  • I remember being a little kid and hating to hear this song at the end of each episode because it meant it was my bedtime! LOL

  • LOVE THIS SHOW GREAT STUFF>>>>>>

  • I'd pay to see these two sing this on a DwtS results show.

  • Wow, this takes me back.

  • I never realized they were lip syncing. :-( rats. my childhood is now stained

  • If her face was flushed, and ready to faint,...

  • I remember watching this, wishing I was marie and wanting to marry donnie! How corny, but cute! things are so different now.....

  • Okay - yes it was corny - but boy it was slick ... and they didn't look like they were miming either - so either that was fabulously rehearsed or Donny had great energy to be leaping around and singing without panting.

  • LOL this always reminds me of monica and ross from friends " im a little bit country!" "and im a little bit rock'n'roll!!" :')

  • God damnit I can say it all I want I HATE DONNY I HATE DONNY I HATE DONNY but somehow he just fucking sucks me in every time. AHHHHh why is he soo talented makes up for his ridiculous smile and hair

  • I miss it so much, when it was cool to be NICE & SWEET. : (

  • @csmcmillion ~ That's just a disgusting thing to say, regardless of what you think of their music. I mean seriously, how tacky & ignorant can you get?

    I always find myself surprised at the idiots that are in this world ~ for some strange reason. Often I think I've seen or heard it all... and then another moron comes along!

    What a shitty thing to say. Seriously.

  • @csmcmillion

    You're a scumbag.

  • @csmcmillion you're a fucking terrible human being.

  • @csmcmillion u mad3d me lol

  • They were my first concert (prob. age 6) Watched them every Friday night at 8pm on ABC. I had the biggest crush on Donnie <3 That was when "Entertainers" actually entertained. Loved their music and the show was just fun. Ahhh...the good old days.

  • oh i just love donny and marie!!! i've been a fan since donny's 'all i have to do is dream' ...=) i love marie singing everybody's somebody's fool...

  • Extroaordinary Mormons! Extraordinary foreheads, faces!

  • I LOVE the outfits the guys in Marie's band are wearing... too funny!!!

  • Well here's a blast from the past. I was just a kid when I'd watch this stuff.

    Yeah, some cheese, but also a lot of memories. Lol.

  • damn lypsincing poseur talentless hacks.

  • Ahem, and I quote:

    "Soul!"

    Nuff said.

  • nice

    from kateycat908

  • true american cheese

  • @b4rn35y well said

  • @zackhanscom loads. I've got it all on tape in my loft and wank to it furiously every fortnight. what I wouldnt give to jizz all over marie here

  • She's the Hottest Mormon EVER!

  • @Dremple Have you seen a lot of mormon women? That would not be very hard.

  • Is Marie pregnant in this video?

  • @DonnaWerhan No, she didn't have kids until after the show ended. She didn't get married until 1982, and the show ended in 1979, I think.

  • THIS IS AWESOME, I WAS DONNT OSMOND IN MY 5TH GRADE PLAY!!!!!!!!HES SOOO BEAST!!!!!!!! AND........hes too kuwe fo skool

  • love this song !

  • thanks for posting this, i watched this show every friday night, never missed a show, so again thanks for posting this.

  • I'm a little bit white bread!

  • i love Donnie and Marie!

  • Sorry about your loss Marie. My heart goes out to you and your family.

  • Ms. Osmond..my condolences on your loss..may God give you strength to cope.

  • Comment removed

  • wow, i can't decide if marie was hotter back then or now!

  • does anyone know of this song it kinda sounds the same as country &rock and roll but its done by a girl and it kinda sounds like a childrens song.Maybe within 2008-2009

  • Oh.

    I see.

    So this is where South Park got it from.

    Lol.

  • god my mum made me inherit some random things like a love for the osmonds!!!! and useless info donny's fav colour is purple!!!

  • how good does marie look fine :)

  • this is a shotstane

  • By the way, I'm a catholic by heart-- and always will be, till I die. Merry Christmas to all!

  • It doesn't matter in what religion you were born in, as long as you have that FAITH in your heart, you'll always be happy Al, Keep the faith!

  • ...wellllllll, I'm a little bit Catholic, and I'm a little bit Protestant, too! My BaptiCostal OrthodApostolic up bringin left me a little confuuuused...? If I was only born Mormon, then I might me happy!

  • AIK ,,trust me all religions are for the very needy.

  • I love this!

  • Why didnt they show Donny playing the skin flute? hes really good at that.

  • Some of you people must live in a cave! Donny and Marie have had very successful careers! The Osmonds were right up there with the Jacksons!! Yes, MJ was once in a lifetime but the Osmonds are talented and deserve their success too!

  • @mrsbilliejoemargera only Michael and Janet. The rest of the Jacksons ride on their coattails. Even after Michael's death, his family continues to ride on his coattail. I agree that Michael has more talent than anyone except for Elvis.

  • The Osmonds played their own instruments also and they play more than one instrument. For being such a loser, Donny sure has had such a comeback since 1989! Let's see how the rest of the Jackson Five does without Michael. Even Randy Jackson knows his brother's are out to ride on Michael's death. That's why he won't have anything to do with the show on A&E.

  • Compare Donny's personnal life AFTER the 70's to MJ - Donny has done WAY better - and Donny is still breathing. There are some advantages to being "normal"!

  • ahahahaha, you're joking right? you honestly think Donny Osmond did better in the 80s and 90s than Michael Jackson did??? wow.....i didnt know donny osmond won 8 grammys in one night, perfomed at inauguration ceremonies, has the best selling album + video of all time, went to the white house, oh and i also dont see donny on we are the world which was an idk...ALL STAR cast. btw when MJ was going 2 comeback he sold out in 4 hours, prolly donny a year and a half to do that.....

  • Oh PLEASE give me a break - I said PERSONNAL life, not professional. MJ spent all of the late 90's and 00's trying to get the worship back that he lost, getting drugged out, weirded out and spending himself beyond bankruptcy, where as DO married, fathered HIS OWN kids, lived a steady successful life as a father and husband - oh yeah, and because he does not have to drug up to be able to perform, he is STILL BREATHING!. All the past awards and record sales do not make MJ any less dead.

  • Well has Donny given thousand(maybe millions) of dollars to charities like MJ??? So what if Donny is still breathing??? He isnt half as popular as Michael EVER was! I mean I like Donny I really do! And MJ and Donny were friends! I know this for a fact! Michael wasnt extremly normal but he's more normal than some people. And how in the world could Michael Jackson go bankrupt!?! That was stupid tabloid trash! He had MILLIONS of dollars. You would have to buy A LOT of stuff to go bankrupt!!

  • @alicecullenrox8 who knows how much any of the Osmonds have given to charity over their 50 year career as they do not advertise such things because they don't do it gain public favor.......but i can tell you the Children's Miracle Network (founded by the Osmonds) has raised over 3 BILLION dollars

  • It does a man no good to gain the world, but loose his soul...

  • No, Donnie indeed didn't do all those things, but he also didn't molest little boys, so I'd say that puts him one up on MJ.

  • @mthivier asshole

  • @lilyy28, wow, what an insightful, timely and poignant post. i bet you worked all afternoon on it. Congratulations.

  • Comment removed

  • @mthivier haha

    well thats what i thought of you ...

    ... asshole :)

  • This has truth.

    Just a fun thought.I wonder if you mention Donny simpson to someone say in the ucraine.Theyd be like Donny who

  • Marie is a sex god.

  • I loved this show. A little bit country, rock-n-roll, and mix in some dork. Tadah!

  • Look at this at the time it was made, I was there, it's easy to chop it up it now, but why exactly are you on this site if you don't like the music.......

  • LOL!!! Don't you just love how they say they hate Donny & Marie Osmond, but yet they are on here watching and listening to the video.

  • The book of Mormon says thou art beeth a lil bit country,or thouest shall be a lil bit rock n roll

  • How many times has she divorced?

  • Donne: 'Im a little bit motown'

    Who told you that?

    If you had even a hint of motown

    maybe this generation would know your name.

    pfft.

    Hes like the unsuccesful white version of

    Young Michael Jackson.

    R.I.P MJ X.

  • That was just...wrong on so many levels...

  • was she pregnant then?

  • No, she must've been like 15 or 16 in this video. I think she was 24 when she had her first child, Stephen Craig Jr.

  • what's the 3rd song called?

  • geico caveman on piano, lol

  • She is absolutely beautiful. My goodness she could stop a clock.

  • Their is not a group today that would ever match, or beat the talent of the Osmond Brothers or the Jackson 5 or MJ combine

  • Are you Kidding me?

    The osmonds (never seen about then since a week ago) dont even compare to the Jackson 5.

    Talking about Michael Jackson.

    Michael is a Legend.

    Who is even this guy singing..

  • I well agree with you on that, but I don't think there is a group today, that well ever match MJ and the Osmonds or the Beatles maybe the Joanna brothers???

  • i love this so much :)

  • why does Donny scare you?

  • omg,donny scares me

  • so groovy

  • Humans are a very bizarre species.

  • This is like watching an edgy version of the Lawrence Welk Show.

  • lol,true

  • Marie is sooo pretty!

  • She is SO lovely !

  • ¡Extraordinario! Escribo desde el Perú y lamentablemente no se ingles. Recuerdo que vi este programa doblado en español, menos las canciones, que aun ignoro que dicen. ¿Habrá alguien que me hable un poco mas de Marie Osmond? ¿Que fue de ella?

  • I wish she was nasty!

  • I love this tune

  • Comment removed

  • I watched this every weekend. I love the Osmonds. Back then you didn't have to be nasty to be cool. You either had talent or you didn't.

    THEY HAD & HAVE TALENT

    AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • For all those who say " Slanderous" comments on Your Tube like this stupid ass " Sartustheinfinite" and others, don't you know you're registered on You Tube and these " Gross Slanderous " remarks are evidence in a court of law. I and the Osmond family are already bringing a law suit against one of you. Grow Up, Get A Life and shut your garbage mouths.

  • Empty words from a nobody, learn the law Youtube comments are not slander you goofball...

  • You are being watched by the FCC

  • what a joke! as a gentile I just dont get it...

  • 3rd song is Everybodys somebodys fool/ A hit for Connie Francis.

  • Not sure whypeople have a problem wit mormons. they seem to have more moral values than everyone else.

  • Just shows that Mormons can get funky when they want to.

  • what's the 3rd song called?

  • Cute show . . aside from that dress. I must admit that one of my favorite Christmas movies used to be Marie's "The Gift of the Magi"!

  • "The happy times will live again aside from a shoe?!?"
