"I need something non-triggering to watch" - sees this- "perfect."
Literally me
@@hippygirlfriend4937 are you cute?
The seventies had a real problem with these serial killers. I don't understand it
Drugs
Glad I wasn't raised in California !
The 80s also and for some reason it was always in quiet upper middle class neighborhoods.
Back then there weren't cameras everywhere.. and DNA evidence was not used yet.
Drugs and freedom those were good ol days dna wasent bundy went nuts he finally got his cant imagine that type of evil I killed a few in my dreams woke up tkfuly god bless
I remember that story. I use to love the dating show. I always thought that they had a thorough background check done on the people in the show. Guess not
Most of these shows don’t do a thorough check.
Rest in peace most of us did some crazy things in 60s rest In peace
Much harder to do in the 70s than now. No internet...etc
@@dounghataiwataim5180 ab "SOUL" utely.
@@IamwhoIam333 A back check would've found nothing, he had no crim record as he wasn't charged w/ any of his 5 kills at the time. Many bad guys n girls have little to no priors, you'd know if u worked in a court
So there were two serial killers who appeared on 'The Dating Game' back in the 70's?!
Two that we know of... so far!
It’s like looking for future pop stars in Disney shows. You can count on it
*_Who besides Rodney Alcala?!!_* 😳
@@AnnaLexi Ted Bundy

My mother told me about him when i was growing up, warning me about strangers claiming to know my parents. She was from NY.
We were all told this as kids - I grew up in Manchester UK and it was the same. One guy once stopped his car and spoke to me and a couple of friends and asked me - not the others- if I'd like a ride in his car. I said "No you might be a child molester for all I know!" I was six - I had no idea what child molesting involved just that mum told me not to go anywhere with a stranger. Anyway he drove off pretty quickly, so I was probably on the mark. This was the time when the Moors murderers were abducting, torturing and killing children around the north west of England.
1975 San Diego..I was 15.. running along Pacific Hwy/Harbor Island Drive area to make a late bus connection.. Back then it was normal to hitchhike, or maybe i was just naive ?...a car pulls up, the nice looking man offers me a lift..I Got In... immediately he started talking about photography, the hair stood up on the back of my neck, i knew i was in trouble ... immediately I jumped out as he was slowing at a light...Im Almost sure, i dodged a bullet🙏 When i saw his face a few years ago, i didnt feel so good, Whewwww🤕
Wow but back then didnt men do that alot?
@@stevenleal3991 yes they did lol
I know you lying 🤥😂😂😂😂😂 did you copy and paste this from a Wattpad story? Because I read the exact thing there same wording and everything
@@MsAnabel1000 me too 😭
Thanks for sharing that terible ordeal. Live to tell.
And he just died, July 24th, 2021, exactly 42 years after he was finally caught
The only thing more horrific than Alcala’s atrocities is the coddling he continues to receive from a bleeding heart approach to justice.
He should never have been released after the first horrific attack, obviously. Some people are against the death penalty not because they feel sympathy for the horrible criminals, but simply because they don't think the government should be in the business of killing people under any circumstances. Other people feel the death penalty lowers us all and makes us more like the criminals themselves. Just saying.
Exactly my though. From the 70s untill the 2020s this guy have been getting is way with people. Especially the justice system
How could someone leave their pregnant girlfriend in the middle of nowhere😪
Sis, wrong emoji....
That's the first thing I noticed like Jesus Christ! Now woman & child dead over some petty argument, I bet you if we could ask him he doesn't even remember what the argument was about. Even if mad at least drop her off at a bus stop or gas station somewhere with plenty of ppl where she could use a phone!
If he's a total POS
@@jadibdraws Jesus?
She's probably a strong independent woman who doesn't need a man
I wish I can go back and time and stop serial killers
Pointless statement. You wouldn’t be watching this now if you didn’t have a fascination with serial killers.
i wanna see his full episode of dating game or some interviews an full court sessions this guy is insane an i wanna learn more n more
It's online. Creepy episode/guy!
The 70 s was a great time for serial killers
I was trying to figure out how to waste a good hour this morning.
Did u waste or u have more time to waste 😂😂
@@alibaashi3956 I had time to waste and it was perfect
@@alibaashi3956 same question 😂🤣
I WOULD SUGGEST WATCHING GILLIGANS ISLAND TIMELESS MASTERPIECE
really? it's only 7 minutes long 😂
Here on July 24, 2021 @ 11: 07 pm (pacific time) after finding out on local L.A. news that Rodney Alcala "expired" today while in prison from natural causes. He was 77 years old.
July 2021 .. R.I.H.
I bet u know what the H stands for.
He ain't in the longer, better H word that's for sure
Alcala died today.
Hell's furnaces are burning hotter
When people say very trusting THEY REALLY MEAN DUMB
@Panta Rie 83 One would naturally think victims must be stupid; we think we’re smarter, so we’re not at risk - a comforting delusion. I narrowly escaped him and can say that like Bundy and the worst serial killers he’s extremely cunning and intelligent and hides his demon under an innocent charm so convincing almost no one can see or even sense it. These men wouldn’t be so ‘successful’ unless they could fool family, employers and even law enforcement. Only when they have a victim securely isolated dare they rip off the mask and gleefully enjoy another human being’s terror and pain, killing to continue the charade. They start with animals, so we need to teach children early to empathize and respect their consciousness and feelings even as we hunt or discipline them. Only parents can head off that chain of experimenting and enjoyment of power over a weaker being that helps turn humans into monsters. Watch and get a child help if you see any lack of empathy toward another living creature. Or pretend it’ll pass then try avoiding all the reporters on your lawn.
She was extremely young and it was a very different time. She wasn't dumb.
It was trusting of others, not of self.
@monique hoyt 1968 in Venice CA, he seemed to be hiding out a bare apartment on the boardwalk. Would’ve been after assaulting Tali Shapiro and before escaping to New York. Either some locals connected him to prior murders or his face was seen as Wanted in a local post office because after he charmed me up there someone found my friend, pointed to the place and told her I’d been taken by a ‘serial killer.’ Haunted forever by that sicko tho he’d only just started to menace me. What about you?
@monique hoyt I watched the show - so sorry for your horrible ordeal. Good instincts saved u. Mine a total lucky escape, I thought no cause to call police since he’d only invited me to wait for my tardy friend in an apartment overlooking our boardwalk rendezvous. Sixteen and trusting I went; inside just a dark back alley studio. His face and persona changed into something out of a nightmare and he started madly tearing through the kitchen drawers so I knew I had seconds left, not enough to reach the door. Then frantic pounding by my pal who’d been warned and led there by a Good Samaritan (angel?); she crouched halfway down the stairwell lying about more people waiting for us outside. RA slowly came back to earth and let me walk out. I can’t forget his face, cold and dead but furious. Later I told myself just ‘paranoia’ but now I feel bad knowing he was a fugitive and went on to more crimes, like yours... Didn’t see his picture and connect it until over decade later. I don’t know how u went on with your life after getting such a dose of him.
Why are people so obsessed with Evil?? People like this yes should be made aware of but not Famous!!! Serial killers are amongst celebrities because the obsession over why they kill and whom they killed. Terrible. They deserve NO such repetitive recognition.
We need to be
warned. I met a sociopath because I was too trusting
This is my first time hearing about this man so he's not that famous and his name is so unusual I'm likely gonna forget it after watching this video.
@@jadibdraws lol he’s extremely well known
Why are you here ms high and mighty?
@@gabrielschoettmer9790 She's right. We have a sick, twisted society that makes celebrities out of these evil pieces of garbage.
Thankfully, Alcala is dead and can’t hurt anyone any more. If only he could have been stopped sooner before he attacked Tali and he murdered the women and girls.
Finally, I love these
YeH me to
Will ABC not upload the final part like they always do?
@abcnews do you ever plan on posting the final part to this story? It is missing.
the full show is on their website and it includes the last part. there should be a link in the bio of this video
He's burning in hell as of 7/24/21
Rest easy to the souls of his carnage
So the creep died yesterday, July 24, 2021. May he RIH.
This needs to be a movie. Weird Al would play Rodney
Investigation Discovery made a TV movie about this topic. Played like a Lifetime TV mvie.
don’t do weird al dirty like that man
The serial killer Alcala has died 1 week ago. July 24th 2021.
@@fynkozari9271 ew that’s a day before my birthday
@@fynkozari9271it's ridiculous he lived that long with all that mountain of evidence. It's funny California and several states execute individuals tat have never committed a murder,sexual assault of minors, or have zero evidence tying a person to an actual crime. Their seem to be a pattern in Americas injustice system. You can have video, audio, eyewitnesses and other mountain of evidence of a crime and yet you drag a case on for decades or even sometime release the perp. But have zero evidence tying an individual to a crime an it's an open and shut case. America need to stop Glorifying mass murderers and serial killers.
Why do I get a sudden urge to watch stuff like this
For all of us who read Jack Kerouac and decided it would be the great American adventure to hitchhike...we are lucky to still be here.
I hear that in the 1950s - 70s it was commonplace for young people to hitchhike all over the U.S. It was probably fine for fit young men, but young girls? Never a good idea.
@@thedativecase9733Many young woman have been murdered and rape during that period.
I don't remember him, but I do remember Ted Bundy. I was 12 years old, and living in Florida, when he killed Kimberly Leach who also was 12 and living in Florida.
In the sixties and early seventies hitching a ride was common place but often I reflected on the what if's years later. Having gotten into cars in very dark places, freezing cold, wee hours of the morning, out on the interstates it was never a concern of mine getting into a car with a hippie, a homosexual, someone A-wol from the Army or a group of blacks passing a brown bag around and me refusing to sip. What concerned me most was a family with children in the car accepting and exposing their family to a total stranger just to give them a ride to somewhere, anywhere, perhaps the next exit or closest bus station. Who were these people? could they be a family of cannibals will I be fed to the children as tasty scraps, no more than a leftover to them on a dark desert night. Should I perhaps not enter the car and just skelter off into the tumble weeds and underbrush or take my chances with fate?
You were in the car with a homosexual? And blacks?! Glad u made it out alive!
👩🏼⚕️🎱🎾🍕🌮 I'm just starting out in
the World. I just turned 21yrs old. Thank Goodness for theses Video's. It helped me to WATCH my Surroundings & People a little Better. Happy Holidays to Everyone.....💯✨✨✨
Got this in my recommendations...
Lol same
It was announced that alcala died today.
He just died
Women really need to stop getting into a car of a stranger
Right?!! When I took any transport (medical, Lyft, Uber), I asked for the name of the person the driver was picking up. But now even that's no guarantee that the situation won't turn awry, esp in other countries. And that applies to the drivers as well.
No sensible child, with wise parents would ever do that. I was told not to go off with strangers no matter what they said, from my earliest childhood. It saved me on a couple of occasions - there are always weirdos around then as now.
Fact: The Dating Game when Rodney Alcala did appear in 1978 was in syndication.
Her boyfriend at the time shouldn't been charged for something how the hell do you leave your pregnant girlfriend on the side of a highway in the desert. No matter how mad you get drop them off at a gas station, a bus stop or somewhere near other ppl. Now he has to live with that guilt for the rest of his life. Woman and his own child gone forever just sad.
Ever think that she threatened him to let her out? Or she got violent or angry and demanded that she was a grown ass adult and strong independent feminist who didn’t need men?
It is very sad that various parts of life we have to know who we are dealing with. In this day and age, it’s the understatement. I have and will always say “let God take care of it” and he did. Many most serial killers wed to be totally aware that crime does pay, with executions, which I really don’t support. I am glad God took care of it.
Wait a second, wyoming doesn't exist
He still sits in a California prison. No justice here.
Her boyfriend should receive some kind of reprimand for that. Leaving a pregnant girl in a different state because of an argument.
And they say this generation is weak
he is a very UNattractive man
Robin would be wife and grandmother
Wth, you don't know that ! Not a females want to get married or have kids !! I never did !!
Does anyone know the song in the intro?
Where is part 6?
The views and comment ratio is huge
What a bizarre case this was.
Anyone know the episode and season of this 2 parts
This show still carries on??
The new version uses celebrities. It is much worse than the original!
Would you date someone on dating sites?
It the samething do you really know the person.
Look at their profile and picture.
Why they think this monster is charming......yukkkkkkkk
Yeh he's creepy as all hell. I can't see anything attractive about him.
Guy died today. Good riddance
Don’t waste your time watching this. I saw all five parts and there’s no final episode. You end not knowing what happened.
there are 11 parts to this
Its on Hulu too the full episode
😔
he's dead now.....
And we just need to live in a better life
Candy to the eyes can be poison in disguise.
For years I have been in poverty, my mother tells me every day, my son, when are we going to get out of this misery, but I don't have the answer pris I took the canoe for an immigrant 2faith and I had to die, please help me make my dream come true and finance my transport project in my country please😥
Yeah I used to get so much pressure from my mother too- "I had you to improve the family, improve our fortunes, why haven't you changed the world yet?!" But after years of guilt I realized that my life is still better than hers was, and her life was better than her grandmother's, each generation improves on the last, it's just life. Your mother just wants the best for you but WHAT DO YOU WANT?? What are your dreams- besides "getting out of poverty", cos lemme tell you, I literally went from a starving in a shack in a third world country to comfortably middle-class in a first world country and my mother STILL isn't happy lol, there's always gonna be something. Good luck with your internet business, I'm sure you'll be a "success" but there's more to life than money and mothers
right, you are in poverty but can afford a computer and service - scam
@@twiceshy9773 Hi my sister you know these too easy to judge people you don't know you are sitting behind your screen and you tell those you think its these not be honest you know nothing of my life so don't talk about it , my comment does not have for you these for kindhearted people you do not have any. As you say, I have a cell phone and I have the connection and I will use it to be able to meet a person ready to help me and it will not be you
@@gamigam6420 hmm...why didn't you write back to Ganieda Morgan?? Is it because you are just scamming?? I was trying to help you but lol, I think you will be just fine, once your English has improved you will be able to guilt trip people a lot better...maybe try OnlyFans?? Pegging videos make heaps of money!! Lol good luck my brother from another mother, don't forget to give back to the community😊👍👍
@@LadyWhinesalot lol yeah, he tried it. To be fair though, they give you a mobile phone here in Australia for free, so if you are unemployed you can still be contacted if they find a job for you....but this guy is still an amateur (with mother issues) but you gotta admire the hustle lol😉😂😂
If people should get arrested for killing other people
He’s dead now
No part 6..
Thats an old Ruse 'I know your Mum,Dad etc...Or your Mum sent me etc...Allways work out a password wiv your Children...Make it a whole sentence...Also people reading maps and being lost...and Never put your child name on a visible item ,bag,coat etc ;cos if someone calls thier Name they might just respond.??..Cannot be too safe .Always need to be "On the watch"..
Evil stalks the Earth...
Not the bones of an infant. The bones of a foetus.
Annnnd he’s dead 💀
I swear, living in the 1960s to 70s makes Ohio look like Disneyland.
He died today :)
We don't want to hear about the victims we won't hear about the contestant what was his name
Who’s here from Joe Rogan?
Here from DC
I should have listened to my gut instincts about a guy online the way this lady did.
Please listen to your gut instincts as it will save your life. Red flags, run. Listen to your parents and friends, family too.
There were many serial killers on that era Including Ted Bundy but this man had to be the worst. What I'll never understand is he never got executed They right away executed mister Bundy They didn't take him out But I'm sure he had an awful time in prison anyway People have to remember the victims and pray for them Mostly mostly
Did he say Andy Warhol was shot dead?
I replayed that several times but am sure they wouldn’t get that wrong.
I thought the same. But he said, "Andy Warhol is shot that year..." I used the Closed Captions.
@@lydian.773 thanks !
They did get it wrong I wrote a correction on this. He was shot by Valerie Solanas, but he survived.
...and now he's dead
60s and 70s ruined the generations to come
No part 6, don't bother, it's a wind up...
Now that was a peaceful protest
"Celebrating love and romance"? Wha-?
Yes that made me choke on my coffee!
Whos here from double champ champ DC
