Im so happy theres you tube so we can look back at shows like this. I grew up on these shows,its so wonderful to see them again. this is what the world is missing today !!! This brought tears to my eyes! ❤
Nothing makes me happier than to listen and watch this wholesome goodness. A far cry from our world today. This let's me escape into a beautiful time in my life. Thank you King Family. ♡
I loved the king family as a kid I remember it being some of the fee times I got to do something with my parents . My mom was always in and out of the hospital until she passed of cancer when i was 9 thats why things like watching this show together holds such great memories for me
AHHHHHHH, I LOVE IT!!!! I REMEMBER SOOOO WELL GROWING UP WATCHING THE KING FAMILY ON TV. WHAT A JOY! TAKES ME BACK TO THE GOOD OLD INNOCENT AND SIMPLER DAYS OF MY CHILDHOOD!! I WOULD SO LOVE TO BE ANLE TO HAVE ALL OF THEIR SHOWS ON DVD!! ESPECIALLY THE CHRISTMAS SPECIALS!!!
The King Family was the reason I became a professional singer/actor!!! I did "Cats", "Les miserable", "Charlie Brown"...the list goes on. I retired due to MS. The King Family has always been an inspiration! Thank you for the music! :)
@@joemoschetta1541 thanks Joe! Cheryl and Don's son Sean was the drummer in my first hard rock band. They put me up for over a year after a near fatal motorcycle accident. Daughter Ashley is in Nashville perusing a country music career. Daughters Crissy and Dania were still very young back then I barely remember them. They probably don't remember me. Ashley is in Nashville pursuing a country music career. Don passed away some time ago you can find his obituary online. I spoke with Cheryl a couple of years ago and still chat with daughter Alison on Facebook now and then. They are such WORLD CLASS human beings.
Just started watching Carol Burnett reruns, and in an exorcism skit, a branch of the Kings family Christmas tree was used as a symbol of purity. HAD to google the King family tonight. LOVE THEM! I'll add their music to my Holidays from now on. I've been missing out!
I loved watching this on Saturday nights ,I think it was because they were a real family and they could sing and dance.Wow! I was in elementary school. 😊🎶🕺💃😉🎶
I've always prided myself on knowing about famous celebrity singers from the past. During the Christmas Holidays, a station that I get called GetTV has been playing "Christmas with the King Family" from 1967, and they have played it several times, and I've watched it several times. I recognized Tina Cole instantly when I saw her from "My Three Sons", and I could name all the cast of "My Three Sons" because I grew up watching reruns of it, but I had never heard of the King Family even though I was born in the mid 60's. That may be the reason I had never heard of them, and I didn't remember them from anything they did in the 70's, and it's probably because I was so young at the time. As I've watched the show several times this Christmas, all I could think was "What a beautiful and talented family". Their rendition of "The First Noel" toward the end was just beautiful. As it happens, I know a lot of the songs they sing, and I just watched a video of Alyce singing "My Cup Runneth Over with Love", and I've always loved that song, but I just didn't know who they were until this month, but I sure have enjoyed watching them and hearing them. I keep thinking "how could I not have heard of them"? I guess I was just too young back then. Thank you for making my Christmas a little merrier with such warmth and love that's shown in that Christmas special, and I look forward to hearing more songs from the King Family. I would like to know how the King family started in show business, and what their claim to fame was originally. I just don't know much about this beautiful and talented family, God Bless and Merry Christmas.
I was born in 1964 and remember the King family a little from being on television!! I’m so happy to have seen them and remembered them from television as a small child!!! God bless all of them!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️♥️♥️😊😊😊
As a 5-year-old I watched this one Christmas. The next year they were not on and I did not understand how TV scheduling worked. I always wondered what happened to them and who they were really.
Seems like a lovely Christmas television tradition, way better then Charlie brown xmas special crap. I am only here because Cam Clarke is my favorite Voice actor of all time. Fun to see him being interviewed.
F1478963 Grandson Sean was drummer in my 2nd band way back in 1983-86. His Dad Don passed many years back. I still chat occasionally with Cheryl and Alison. Grandaughter Ashley lives in Nashville seeking a country music career. They were not just world class musicians they are world class human beings. They nursed me back to health after a near fatal motorcycle accident in 1985.
Back in the day I thought they were dorky, but they were very talented. I do have a question... What happened to the family members who were tone deaf? How about the King 2nd cousins twice removed? I'm just kidding ! Very talented family.
maybe they werent real.maybe not as pure as they sem to appear o r maybe they were. some families are totally corupt. (mamas family) some just as clean as they seem to be. in either case they tried to teach us how to believ in that possiability that you could at least fake it, peoplegot tired and stopped faking it. that was the problem it just took too much to keep up with the illuisn of being happy
I always Loved The Andy Williams Family Christmas Specials.
Im so happy theres you tube so we can look back at shows like this. I grew up on these shows,its so wonderful to see them again. this is what the world is missing today !!! This brought tears to my eyes! ❤
Every year when wrapping gifts or baking cookies I put on my King Family Christmas album. Such wonderful music and memories. ❤️❤️❤️
I LOVED them as a child and looked forward every year to their special. And I became a singer and director. Love.
Such a wonderful part of my childhood Christmas memories. Thank you King family.
Nothing makes me happier than to listen and watch this wholesome goodness. A far cry from our world today. This let's me escape into a beautiful time in my life. Thank you King Family. ♡
I feel the same!!!!
100% agree. To bad they are both gone now.

Oh my !!!
I watched the King Family when I was a kid circa 1960s
Who's watching in 2020 ?
Me
As a young girl I thought the king family was beautiful and talented. Brings back happy memories
Watching their specials was a huge part of my childhood, and I am so grateful that I can revisit those happy moments on CZcams.
They are so good. I would love to have videos of these specials. They are just as wonderful as The Lennon Sister's.
It's hard to believe this had ever been on PBS.
We sure NEED PROGRAMS LIKE THIS TODAY!!! Quality programs!!!
It was always terrific to see all the Christmas Specials - I started noticing them when I was 14 in 1964 and they all made the season bright!
Absolutely ! I was only 8 years-old 😊
@Brock That was exactly the same Year and age~ I fell in Love with this Beautiful Family!
This brought back so many memories of days gone by!
🍀😇🍀
i remember watching their tv specials in Los Angeles as a kid ..
I wished I was around back in the day to see the specials/shows IN the 1960s..That was a nice surprise by the son on the set!
Corney no, just lovely. I am so happy I was able to see this.

You should be very proud of who and what you are and gave to us, your fans.
Brings back so many memories of my childhood! Thank you!

Makes me recall the contemporaneous memories from childhood. All the good/best impressions.

They sure don't make shows like this anymore. I remember watching this show with my parents every Saturday night when I was a kid. Happy memories. 😊
We loved the King Family shows - I wish my Mom could enjoy this clips - she has advanced ALZ
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
So your mom has turned into the crazy old lady in the Attic
I loved this, but I love the old stuff! :)

This is so AWESOME!!!
Simply Great!
When I was a kid I wanted to be a 'King Kid' in a little red Xmas blazer.
Great memories ❤️
I share your last name,I was born in 1970 and just discovered your beautiful family.Just seeing this made my holiday so much more meaningful.
What a great American family!
I wish I was old enough to remember.those specials. Vonnie was Tina's mom.
As a 5-year-old I watched this one Christmas. The next year they were not on and I did not understand how TV scheduling worked. I always wondered what happened to them and who they were really.
they were great
Just beautiful
my 5th grade teacher was in this omg
Which one? Who?
Why don’t I remember their specials? My aunt and cousins saw the King Family at the state fair but I didn’t know who they were!
WOW super COOL...!!!
I don’t care if it’s considered corny, I’ll take it! ❤️💕
I got to see The King Family in the 1960s at Melodyland in Anaheim twice. They were very talented in spite of being a bit folksy.
On the Carol Burnett exorcism sketch, one of the symbols of goodness was a branch from the King family's Christmas tree!
Seems like a lovely Christmas television tradition, way better then Charlie brown xmas special crap.
I am only here because Cam Clarke is my favorite Voice actor of all time. Fun to see him being interviewed.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Does anyone know what ever happened to them? They did such awesome television shows.
i don't really know what happened to them;but i just got the urge to find what i could on YT,about them.

izzysykopth thanks for the info.
@@izzysykopth , tell them that I think they were ALL absolutely fantastic and that I wish they still did these shows.
+F1478963 I will do that!
Back in the day I thought they were dorky, but they were very talented. I do have a question... What happened to the family members who were tone deaf? How about the King 2nd cousins twice removed? I'm just kidding ! Very talented family.
If they ever were prosecuted and convicted they would go to Sing Sing.

I like the Lennon Family more.
No
They got old.
sure I mean, some of them were old when they performed this shit 50 years ago, so yeah they are gonna be pretty old.
@@Harkness78 or dead!!
Such a waspy group. Could not stand them. Thank god they were canceled.
they were great
