In the '60's Chuck Barris produced this popular game show for ABC television.
Guys or gals would try their best to answer questions trying to win a date. Many stars and up and coming actors and actresses wanted to be contestants, not for the basic pay check, but for the exposure to the national audiance this highly rated game show had every week. The questions and answers given were pretty seirous as contestants hoped to pick their dream date. My brother Daniel was on the show then and was not picked.
In the '80's the shows format changed. Still hosted by former radio personality
Jim Lang, the show wanted more wild contestants, silly questions but the end result was still the same.. Boy meets girl, Girl meets boy, get picked and go on a free date. Sometimes you got to go to beautiful Burbank, and then others got to go to Spain. Here I am wearing my famous white dancing shoes and Angels Flight pants, acting like a goofball, trying to win a date with the charming Lori Duran.
THis is probably from between 1978-80. Dating Game with Jim Lange last aired in 1980 first-run. Jim's hair was permed like that then, but he unpermed it by Summer 1980 when he started taping Bullseye.
