I watched this on GSN's Family Feud a thon on June 29, 2008 and here's how the hosts were lined up: 2 hours Richard Dawson 2 hours Ray Combs 1 hour Richard Karn 1 hour John O'Hurley
You will note the old Bob mumbles that he thought Richard said, "animal with three of the same letter in its name". Not only is Alligator wrong for three letters in its name, it also doesn't have three of the same letter in its name.
The "something made of leather that a cowboy uses" question was used in an other episode where the individual rang in before the question was finished and responded with "purse".
I like the September show because Dawson has such a contagious laugh. Can't help laughing along. Also the Turkey episode on the UK version of the show is pretty hilarious.
There was another episode where the same question was asked "Name something made of leather that a cowboy uses" and the guy buzzed in before Dawson got out "that a cowboy uses" and his answer was "a purse". Dawson then replied, "you're going to be slightly embarrassed once I finish this question"
I hear you on that. In 1994, when Richard was brought back, it was too late to save the show. Ray wasn't the problem, it was the addition of the Bullseye round. But you're right, O'Hurley was like Dawson in many ways.
Feud was already sinking before it even came back with Louie. As good as Richard Dawson was, Jonathan Goodson's canning of Ray Combs was a nasty blow to the show. Richard Karn put some life back into the show, but when John O'Hurley came on board, he breathed full life into it again.
Yeah, I wish the quality of this classic episode (looks like a VHS recording) could've been a little bit better, but it still remains one of the greatest--and most memorable--moments in "Family Feud's" history (what nimrod in their right mind actually spells "alligator" with three letters?)! What a bunch of numbnuts Bob York, Sr. and his clan were! And they were the champs!
and lets assume that the old man didnt hear well or something.the younger one was a star also.in summer storm snow is coming or an animal with 3 letters is FROG.perfection.
The reason why that person said Alligator was, he thought that when Richard meant 3 letter, there has to be 3 of the same letters. For example, Canada has 3 "a"
The 3 letter animal question was on a Steve Harvey version, but they cut out the "spelled with " and asked name a 3 letter animal, i was puzzled, both fast money hesitated one said elk, the other said pig and both got zero. Cat dog are the 2 top answers still.
My girlfriend didn't prefer Richard Dawson as the host. She told me that she used to watch it when she was little and never wanted to be on it because the idea of Richard Dawson kissing her on the lips freaked her out. She liked the show better when Ray Combs became host. Her mother really liked it when John O'Hurley became host.
That's not the only question they have reused... I have been watching a bunch of videos and so far I have found at least 5 questions that they used with Richard Dawson and then later with other hosts, 3 of which have been with Steve Harvey.
The French History question is a great example that it isn't about the "right answer" but what you think people will say. Lafayette would not be that well known in French History. He made his name in America. Plus, "King Louis." tells me people didn't know the numbers. I wouldn't conflate XVI with the XIV.
i’ve been waiting so long to see this episode because i just kept thinking to myself that whatever family went against them had to be a special kind of stupid to lose to the man who said alligator
You know I find it interesting that despite that it looks like all 5 Yorks seem slow-witted, there's the elder Bob, Jeri and Bette (I presume his two daughters if Bette is younger Bob's sister-in-law like was mentioned), then younger Bob (Jeri's husband) and his brother, so the younger and elder Bob are not blood-related despite the fact they both gave awful answers in Fast Money.
I distinctly remember him doing it once when a guy asked where his kiss was, or something to that effect. May have happened more than once. He kissed a couple of Guys on Match Game as well. Granted, not nearly as often as with the ladies, but he did it.
Where did this come from? Someone that had a cheap videocassette Player with only one video head they got at a garage sale or out of the trash that they recorded with their Camcorder by pointing it at their cheap K-Mart TV from the 80's?
I think I would have been confused with the Brand of Gasoline question. I probably would have said "Diesel". I thought Shell was the name of a gas station, not a gas brand. What other gas brands would there be? Incidentally, not knowing the number one answers, my answers probably would have been: 1. PIG 2. JUICE 3. DIESEL 4. WIND 5. BASEBALL
Better than anything Steve Harvey could come up with in an entire week. I should host Feud. I know, wishful thining, lol. But I'd have a good time at it. :-)
I remember seeing this episode in its first run on ABC. I just about died with laughter with the answer "frog".
+Curtis Anderson What about when alligator was said?
+Curtis Anderson why u so old?!
Alligator was funnier.
I wonder what the York family is doing today.
Any man that says alligator, you gotta give it to him.
Exactly!! You gotta give him a punch in the nose!! :) :) LOL!!
If the 100 people surveyed were from Louisiana then maybe alligator would've been a valid answer.
this will NEVER stop being funny
I watched this on GSN's Family Feud a thon on June 29, 2008 and here's how the hosts were lined up:
2 hours Richard Dawson
2 hours Ray Combs
1 hour Richard Karn
1 hour John O'Hurley
I'm guessing Steve Harvey wasn't the host at this point.
Tony Nicolalde So John O'hurley's 1st Season of 8th Season of the "Family Feud".
GSN should run the Louie Anderson version of "Family Feud".
+Tony Nicolalde Steve hosted in 2010.
You will note the old Bob mumbles that he thought Richard said, "animal with three of the same letter in its name". Not only is Alligator wrong for three letters in its name, it also doesn't have three of the same letter in its name.
cockatoo
The answer is correct, if a little obscure.
Aside from the embarrassing Alligator answer really Bob sr actaully did better than Bob jr. At least he said rain instead of snow for a summer storm.
@@dvferyance Earlier in the show Bob Sr. said Russians when asked to name something Russia is famous for.
@@BrettMKW Yes I have seen that clip.
The "something made of leather that a cowboy uses" question was used in an other episode where the individual rang in before the question was finished and responded with "purse".
yeah back then they repeated questions
Didn't Bette say a purse too?
+1 for the VCR recording LOL.
Imo, this tops the "September" show. It may be the funniest episode of any game show in history.
I like the September show because Dawson has such a contagious laugh. Can't help laughing along. Also the Turkey episode on the UK version of the show is pretty hilarious.
This is also my favorite episode of Family Feud outside of the finale!
Another contestant named Bob said "Turkey" to the first three questions.
Granted, that was the British version.
Old Bob had to be totally clueless to let young Bob marry his daughter.
My favorite Dawson episode of the Feud!
"You don't, uh, you don't use narcotics do you Bob?" LOL!
R.I.P. Richard Dawson
But he drinks Ethyl Gasoline
@@manuelmartinez595 😆
I like the way Jeri York said "Two for luck.".
jeeez. times were really different.. introductions, kissing the women, more intelligent questions
Ryan
Steve Harvey is ok, but the questions have gotten so dirty under his run
Our family used to watch this during the evenings. I wouldn’t watch today’s family feud with my kids
I don't think Paige was a woman, she looked underage.
@@jacobpaas2913 even better ;D
"You don't use narcotics do ya Bob?
"No, but I will."
Anthony Gironda "Something Russia's famous for Bob?
Jalen Brito "Russians"
R.I.P Richard Dawson, you were an awesome host.
Richard (to Bob when he says Ethyl): "Which I believe you've been drinking." ROTFLMAO!!!
Back when "Family Feud" was classy, reverent, and clean... Funny how times change, huh?
J Miller
I dunno, Dawson has some pretty sexual questions too
Maybe some of his Britishness rubbed off on the show.
@@jaelie8398 Not so much back then in comparison to today.
I know it's almost like the current Family Feud should be R rated. I just watched an episode every question was about sex.
Bob Sr. looks like Eisenhower and Bob Jr. looks like his vice-president Richard Nixon.
and Bob Jr thinking that Snow comes from a summer storm
The York family---the funniest family on this show before the Steve Harvey era...bar none.
Adam Moreira hi
CLASSIC BLOOPER FODDER , haven't seen a first "bad/funny answers" compilation that didn't have the frog/alligator clips in it.
The same guy who answered "Name something that Russia is famous for" saying, "Russians".
Where's the part where Alligator Guy says 'Russians' is what Russia is famous for?
They were on 2 different episodes. This is the first one, the Russia answer is on the second episode.
Between “Hogan’s Heroes” and “Match Game,” Richard Dawson was also a panelist on the 1972-73 version of “I’ve Got A Secret.”
"Alligator" still does not have three of the same letter.
"Alligator" still has three letters in its name.
You cannot and you do not want to duplicate his answers 😂
Do all alligators look pregnant in September? Because I'm sure they saw Yogi in a book about the Three Bears. :-P
John Fenner ...and the three bears were Papa bears.
Pretty sure you're talking about Willie the Pooh
@@wolfaliceinchains Winnie. I don't know what books your parents were reading you
@Harry James My parents used to read me a story about a pork-upine
There was another episode where the same question was asked "Name something made of leather that a cowboy uses" and the guy buzzed in before Dawson got out "that a cowboy uses" and his answer was "a purse". Dawson then replied, "you're going to be slightly embarrassed once I finish this question"
Yogi was squeezing peanut butter when they found him.
was it normal to kiss people on the lips when they meet...
+david pinedo exactly my thought, kinda dumbfounded here
yeah what the hell?!
Apparently as long is it was two kisses and not just one.... for luck 'n all.
In Europe it’s on the cheek 1-3 times depending on where but I don’t know if it was in the lips
Yuk!
oh how i loved these days when basketball was so much more popular and talked about than football.
Miss him every day 😢
Id forgotten about the old photo posed openings! Cool
I hear you on that. In 1994, when Richard was brought back, it was too late to save the show. Ray wasn't the problem, it was the addition of the Bullseye round. But you're right, O'Hurley was like Dawson in many ways.
Cause every summer im treading through snow
Feud was already sinking before it even came back with Louie. As good as Richard Dawson was, Jonathan Goodson's canning of Ray Combs was a nasty blow to the show. Richard Karn put some life back into the show, but when John O'Hurley came on board, he breathed full life into it again.
I loved the brand of gasloine answer, "regular". That's the brand I use!!!! That was my first thought too!!!!!!
5:05 "chicken"
I love the retro ad plugs
I fell on the floor laughing so hard at Alligator
Yeah, I wish the quality of this classic episode (looks like a VHS recording) could've been a little bit better, but it still remains one of the greatest--and most memorable--moments in "Family Feud's" history (what nimrod in their right mind actually spells "alligator" with three letters?)! What a bunch of numbnuts Bob York, Sr. and his clan were! And they were the champs!
thanks for the upload!
If your looking for the part its at 16:20
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
lmao
I wonder what was wrong with the tape....
It was 1977. That's what's wrong with the tape.
It annoys me that soccer wasn't an answer for "a sport with a timekeeper." It should have been #1.
Not in the US.
I think Bob said “Alligator” because Alligator has 3 vowels, A, I, and O
No, he said it because it has three letters in its name.
My answers would have said:
1) Pig
2) Milk (beep beep) Eggs
3) Shell
4) Rain
5) Baseball
Bob York Senior...God bless him...
the best episode ever
I swear that's President Eisenhower!!
I've compared pics
and lets assume that the old man didnt hear well or something.the younger one was a star also.in summer storm snow is coming or an animal with 3 letters is FROG.perfection.
The reason why that person said Alligator was, he thought that when Richard meant 3 letter, there has to be 3 of the same letters. For example, Canada has 3 "a"
But "Alligator" doesn't have three of the same letters.
Old Bob looks a lot like Eisenhower.
Some real thick-headed answers. Woof.
5:05
Did he just say chicken?!
Tony Nicolalde I heard it too
"We're chicken" meaning we're too chicken we will pass.
Maybe it was me but for some reason I saw similarities between O'Hurley and Dawson.
The 3 letter animal question was on a Steve Harvey version, but they cut out the "spelled with " and asked name a 3 letter animal, i was puzzled, both fast money hesitated one said elk, the other said pig and both got zero. Cat dog are the 2 top answers still.
If you live in Denver, summer snowstorms are possible
My girlfriend didn't prefer Richard Dawson as the host. She told me that she used to watch it when she was little and never wanted to be on it because the idea of Richard Dawson kissing her on the lips freaked her out. She liked the show better when Ray Combs became host. Her mother really liked it when John O'Hurley became host.
What about her Grandmother on the paternal side of her Father? Who did she prefer?
HE was a bit of a sea dog, himself.
In another episode, they are asked to "name some Russia is famous for". Jeri answers "wheat" at the podium, and Bob senior says "Russians".
"Don't get graphic!"
That's not the only question they have reused... I have been watching a bunch of videos and so far I have found at least 5 questions that they used with Richard Dawson and then later with other hosts, 3 of which have been with Steve Harvey.
Where is the episode where Dawson asks something Russia is famous for and the dad says "Russians"
I'm also wondering where this is. This is basically what I came here for
@@SFSVHS The York family was on two different episodes. This is the first, the "Russians" answer is on the second.
@@nicksojka7457 Which brings me to this: how in the hell did they actually beat some other family?
Name an animal with 3 letters in its name. You said, alligator!😂
This wasn't the Russians one?
Wow, I would never have guessed he's English. According to wikipedia, he was born just a few miles from me.
Back when more than 3 noises sounded like gunfire on the tv
The French History question is a great example that it isn't about the "right answer" but what you think people will say. Lafayette would not be that well known in French History. He made his name in America. Plus, "King Louis." tells me people didn't know the numbers. I wouldn't conflate XVI with the XIV.
i’ve been waiting so long to see this episode because i just kept thinking to myself that whatever family went against them had to be a special kind of stupid to lose to the man who said alligator
i just finished watching everything up to fast money. how did they have smart answers for the game but then did that on fast money? lmao
That was hilarious 😂
You know I find it interesting that despite that it looks like all 5 Yorks seem slow-witted, there's the elder Bob, Jeri and Bette (I presume his two daughters if Bette is younger Bob's sister-in-law like was mentioned), then younger Bob (Jeri's husband) and his brother, so the younger and elder Bob are not blood-related despite the fact they both gave awful answers in Fast Money.
Someone did say "a purse", but only because he buzzed in early only having heard "name something made of leather..."
9:57 dat face when volley ball not there
Really. No time keeping in volleyball, unless they just do it for the record.
How many York family episodes are there?
At least 3. They were the returning family for this episode and they lost the episode after
Why didn't he kiss the men too??
I distinctly remember him doing it once when a guy asked where his kiss was, or something to that effect. May have happened more than once. He kissed a couple of Guys on Match Game as well. Granted, not nearly as often as with the ladies, but he did it.
I’m sure that poor older Bob is still kicking himself today from mishearing the 3 letter animal question
Well this was 1977, unfortunately I doubt he's still around today.
Air date?
@ 16:54 fast money survey rules clearly state.
are there more episodes with the York family?:D
No he didn't! :D Medium rare? :D That's dark! :D
The woman should have said purse for the cowboy question.
I hate to be the Lewis family I can say that for sure. How embarrassing.
Maybe the dude was thinking of Summer on the North Pole or is that also not freezing?
@ 18:04 what's that sound again
My guess for the Animal With 3 Letters In It’s Name Question probably would have been 1 of the following 3.
1: Dog
2: Cat
3: Pig
The first bob reminds me of the Beatles
Which one?
Braindead Beatle
Where did this come from? Someone that had a cheap videocassette Player with only one video head they got at a garage sale or out of the trash that they recorded with their Camcorder by pointing it at their cheap K-Mart TV from the 80's?
+Dallas Dal dude the show is from 1977...what did you expect?
Dallas Dal exactly dumass
This video was recorded off GSN, it has nothing to do with 1977. When a tape is played over and over, it wears out. This is VHS-101, people!
Must played it a thousand times
Thats the worst fast money ive ever seen..
the2thomasklu8 go to wiki and lookup Ethl corporation to find the complpete story
I think I would have been confused with the Brand of Gasoline question. I probably would have said "Diesel". I thought Shell was the name of a gas station, not a gas brand. What other gas brands would there be?
Incidentally, not knowing the number one answers, my answers probably would have been:
1. PIG
2. JUICE
3. DIESEL
4. WIND
5. BASEBALL
76, perhaps?
Funny, but not as funny as "September".
Not only was the other family as dumb as the "Alligator" family, but imagine how stupid they must have felt after the two Bob's butchered it!
i love the joke.
18:58. LOL!!!!!
Pig
Eggs
Chevron
Lightning
Basketball
Would have been my answers
Better than anything Steve Harvey could come up with in an entire week. I should host Feud. I know, wishful thining, lol. But I'd have a good time at it. :-)
