Blair Family Feud

November 1982

[@patrickperalta59]

I miss the old family Feud with Richard Dawson.. also I liked the old Family pictures set up to introduce eveyone.

[@ericsamuelson5656]

1:42:58 aired the day I was born 12/7/82. We lived in East Keansburg in the WABC 7 area during the day and the nighttime show from Viacom aired on WNBC Ch 4 at 7:30. Thank you for posting.

[@markheying2830]

RIP Richard Dawson.

[@johnross775]

Ty Alex congrats and bet was awesome time. Well edited. Nice family..people were smarter back then.

[@GarretGrayCamera]

I like to look up these people sometimes and I'm sad to say both Phils are no longer with us. And Mary Jo's obituary mentions their run on the Family Feud!

[@Joeyg50]

Phil Sr just passed recently. By the looks of it Phil Jr has been gone for a long time.

[@AustinLaPlante]

Air dates: November 22-30, 1982...

[@Elsewhen404]

Congratulations, Alex Blair, on your family's winning streak on Family Feud! So these recordings were taken from the original ABC network telecasts? 🙂

[@jans8854]

Who else is here after watching the sequel?

[@trevorpanno5371]

19:57 is a heartbreaker.

[@Joeyg50]

I saw Phil Jr passed away in Sep 1994. Any family or friends know how he died? RIP Phil, Phil Jr, and Mary Jo.

[@GarretGrayCamera]

I sure hope they had that one family back when the Blairs won the round for saying “stove” 1:16:22 and the judges thought it was the same as microwave oven. That was really unfair.

[@girliboi]

yea, that was a stretch.. . i've seen them be sticklers on answers that matched much more closely to the survey.. . i know they would occasionally have families back (on other goodson/todman shows also), so i wouldn't be surprised if this was one of the times they did.

[@tracyyarbrough3358]

I couldn’t be in the audience for that show. I’d be screaming answers at contestants and throwing stuff after dumb answers.
It’s a pity that the show became so dirty minded. It’s like watching adult tv now. I think there should be a G version of this show where the questions aren’t sexual in nature. Nowadays I can’t enjoy it.

[@gsnman]

You have a cool family! Who are you related to, Alex?

[@Joeyg50]

On the “Willie the Pooh” episode. The irony is the guy Chadi gave that stupid answer then for the win he yelled “Indian food” to Chuck as the answer and was ignored. That was the correct answer.

[@Kiritoification]

at 1:33:07 the Willie episode and R.I.P Richard Dawson

[@VahanNisanian]

Who else agrees? "Willie the Pooh" is way funnier than "September".

[@TheUltimateRare]

i guess it depends on taste? our humor system that we are given at birth is pretty complex so it's hard to understand why people like "blank" more than "blank" in a humor sense.

[@katieb777]

aww Mike is so adoreable ( guy at 1:53:24)

Questions presumably would have been 1 of the following 3.

[@girliboi]

jeez richard, let it go.. . the kid noticed a staffer was cute and you got a giggle out of it, quite while you're ahead.. turning into gene rayburn here, determined to drive it all the way into the ground until the wheels fall off.. . 🙄

[@Joeyg50]

Exactly that was creepy af

[@IvoryM1986]

Ah, the infamous "Willie the Pooh" episode came up on The World's Funniest back in the day. BTW, these episodes aired from November 22-30, 1982 but the episodes' codes are 82-205 to 82-210. The Saints vs. Sinners episodes are marked as 82-211 to 82-215 for those who are keeping score of the codes.

[@lisahardy9707]

Nope not keeping track

[@feudfan55]

That includes a currently unknown preemption on November 26, which was the day after Thanksgiving.

[@Nickle98499]

@@feudfan55 I was not around in 1982(I was born in 1984), but from what I remember of daytime TV when I was growing up in the 1990s and early 2000s, typically whatever was on the networks in the daytime on the day after Thanksgiving was pre-empted by College Football, so I'm guessing that's why ABC did not air Family Feud the day after Thanksgiving that year...
Another possibility would be ABC possibly aired special episodes of Saturday Morning cartoons on that day, as the networks typically did that back then on the day after Thanksgiving(I actually remember Fox doing that in the 1990s after they started their kids' programming).

[@la_tele_en_arriere_]

It's Willie the Pooh ladies and gentleman ! What the joke ! LOL !
Everybody sings !
Willie The Pooh, Wiliie The Pooh
Chubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff
He's Willie The Pooh, Willie The Pooh
Willy, nilly, silly old bear

[@markheying2830]

My guess for each of the following 2 Questions presumably would have been 1 of the following 3.
Country With Earthquakes:
1: Italy
2: U.S.A.
3: Mexico
Dangerous Insect:
1: Spider
2: Wasp
3: Bee

[@joefagan6244]

Seems like Mary Jo looked very nice dressed up and wearing such nice shoes in 1982. After reading the comments She's up in heaven now.

[@joefagan6244]

I didn't know Mary Jo personally.

[@k.h.1587]

Lot's of stupid people surveyed, spiders are not insects

[@keithmacmurray5423]

Kid can’t wave?

[@stevemeinecke]

I know that he kiss 💋 everyone he was a good host of the show

[@Joeyg50]

Did Mike get to go out with Karen Siederman the show assistant? It was kind of creepy of Richard to push a 15 year old kid to ask out a woman clearly in her 20s.

[@zachhoran]

People tried to get 20-somethings to date me when I was a teenager a few times. Those people did not, and one of them chose Donals Trump over me(it was Atlantic City in the late 80s when Donald and Ivana were divorcing, and he owned a few casinos in AC until a few years ago, and Donals liked 20-something cocktail servers) My welfare would have been harder to endanger than that kids' here would have been probably.
