I have seen love connection on various channels on youtube. People complain with the commercials that the TH-camr has posted along with this show. I like it!
Judy and Stephen are by far the best contestants on LC since I’ve been binge watching this show the last few weeks. Judy is very intelligent, well developed who presents as a very honest and confident woman. Stephen is well spoken, attractive and intelligent. He seems like a real man. There need to be more Stevens and Judy’s in the world . They seemed well matched. Stephen and Judy, if you’re reading this , I hope that life has treated you well. Kind regards. ❤️
Thank you for your kind words. I'll be 81 in May and found my true Love Connection in 1989 when I moved to Texas. We've been married 34 years and now living back in Southern Cal. Unfortunately, it's my understanding that Judy passed a few years back ;-( Thanks again for your comments, Stephen
@@Harlow... Sorry, I'm just a successful corporate execute that's now retired with a beautiful wife, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Best wishes, Steve ;-)
@@Harlow... I guess at 80 years old I don't understand or appreciate facetious 'humor'. Probably one of those generational things . . . but thanks for replying ;-)
Not really. I was in my late teens and 20s j to the 80s and people and dating could be just as shitty as they are now. People tend to over romanticize the past. It’s TV that has changed. Reality shows weren’t a thing yet. Nowadays dating shows are so extreme and weird.
This was a proper tv show. Things were great, but some things never change. It wasn’t that innocent. And jerks still existed. People were putting their best foot forward here too.
Really good quality recording...thank you, love watching again... and Chuck Woolery is the best! Absolutely loved the surprise ending...wonderful to hear of the success of some of the "love connection" couples.
I know a very pleasant and attractive lady. Seems like she would be really nice to talk to. Steve is quite nice himself . One of the nicest couples on the show!!!
I want that Shakey's deal LMAO. I can plan my day. First pick up my Suzuki from the dealer and the shop at Miller's outpost go to Broadway then pick up dinner from Shakey's!
Oh that adorable baby Zach! 🥰🐤Cutie Cozy snug a bug😍 Really nice to see some people enjoying their dates and delightful to see a baby from one of the love connections. I really like this show. Makes me miss the good old days. Chuck Woolery so handsome.
He does, it's just a shame that he said women will make a man fit their mold, that's not verbatim. It's a shame he didn't qualify it by saying some women or the women I have dated.
@@MrCJ-qz9dl I hear you. I just went back and at 2:37 he talks about the differences between men and women. I'm not hating on him, I just think he should have qualified it by saying, some women. Instead of women generally. I am very conservative, so perhaps it's surprising that I would feel this way. If anybody were to say something like that about any race, it would be regarded as racist. That just rubbed me the wrong way.
@@MrCJ-qz9dl hi hun, I really probably should apologize for my previous comment. I don't know why I'm being so difficult this evening. Could be, I'm emotional. LOL I just didn't like the part of his comment where he said, women might find a man they are attracted to, and then they plan to change them. I admit I'm emotional, but I don't try to change anyone, I'm usually adjusting my own behavior to fit their mold. Once I recognize this in myself, I was able to make changes. It's cliche, but we cannot change what we do not acknowledge. Anyhow, I hope you have a good night.
@@MrCJ-qz9dl you can share with me whatever you like. I don't really get offended by people's thoughts or feelings unless they are cussing me out and calling me a dumbass for not agreeing with everything they say. 😂
I agree, and for the past few years the way they are rebooting shows from the '80s, they need to reboot this one. They could have new dates and then flashbacks of those that appeared previously. I know I'm not the only one to think this!
@@suzanromero6964 when we would take family road trips, I remember seeing shakey's. Are they still in business? It seems like I remember seeing them everywhere.
@@ritawashere5787 I haven’t seen a Shakeys in years. I know they were great family fun, and teens loved the place. The pizza was was great too, so I don’t know why they went out of business.
@@suzanromero6964 yeah and they had commercials like Denny's. But teenagers liked it because they could go anytime before or at the end of a date LOL it's a real shame, it's kind of like an institution. Speaking of institutions, IHOP was another one. They're still in business but 20 years ago there was one that went out of business near us and any other one I've ever seen is sort of sad looking and not a place I would ever go. But they still have commercials. I just don't think they're doing as well as maybe they once had or I don't know.
@@jonburrows2684 Nope - I'm still here and will be 81 in May. But believe me, the world has changed since this recording was made . . . Have a great 2025 - Stephen P.S. - Unfortunately I heard that Judy did pass a few years ago ;-(
They should really bring the show back. It’s so much better than those stupid bachelor shows and you know those dumb shows where they put a bunch of single people in a room or a house.Ugh
Hard to believe she be in her 70s now i was a young girl like not even close to a teenager i am actually the age she is in this video . i hope she found love.
Yeah, Mr. Stephen Taylor, in 1988, on this Day of 1,000th Episode of then-"Love Connection" dating game show, Mr. Charles "Chuck" Woolery did host this Love Connection just as his former announcer there was Mr. Johnny L. Gilbert III!
Oh & yeah, Mr. Chuck Woolery, like you've announced, your secret guest who was born on & then came on "Love Connection" 1 year & 4 months later turned out to be then-infant Zachary "Zach" Tyler Schultz! Yeah, also, back then, he looked cute!❤😂
Oh hey that's right! I wonder if he's seen the tape. I bet he grew up to be a beautiful man because he has such a lovely features. Good natured baby too.
I'm only at the beginning of the video, but I'm just struck that Sylvester Stallone was on love connection 😂 I can't wait to see how things unfold for zack. Would he only be 30 or 32? Wasn't the show on 30 or so years ago?
I just got to the end of the video. It would have been nice to have seen the parents or at least seen what they looked like on their initial date. I keep saying this but I wish they would reboot this show. Have new daters as well as a flashback from years past at the end. People would love it. There's no dating shows on right now. In the '70s they had the dating game, the '80s love connection, 90s blind date, shipmates, and the fifth wheel. I've been catching blind date episodes lately. I wish I could find Shipmates but I must admit I have not searched.
I love her outfit and my husband and i have personalities like this when we meant each other. She does look younger like 32. He was the best to choose from the only thing in his interview before she choose him sounded sad but true but i am sorry he wind up being pleasant
I was sort of confused by your comment but I wanted to say that Steve should not have said that women will make a man fit the mold. That's not verbatim. Just wish he would have said some women.
John is wearing a wedding ring. It also says he's 43 and never been married. That's kind of fishy. It makes me think that some of the people on the show are just out of work actors who make a few quick bucks to film a video short and not real contestants.
FYI - I don't know about John or others, but I answered a local classified ad, had an interview, and was then select to go on the show. I had a full time job at the time and I know Judy was also working. We both had fun being on the show and going on the date, but never dated after that. I'll be 81 in May '25 and I understand that , unfortunately, Judy passed a few years ago. Thanks for the comment - Stephen
@@chucktraynor11 There were multiple instances on _Love Connection_ with guests deliberately lying about their marital status on the application-- solely to get on the show. Being the 1980's and early 1990's, there was no way to really check.
I am not at the end of the video, but the date on the show's name is ellen. So I don't know if there's another woman he was going to see or if you got the name wrong. I'm super curious now LOL
Sorry, we didn't get married or have a follow-up date. We both had fun on the show and on our date, but not a "Love Connection'. I relocated to Texas a year after this show, met a great lady and we were married in 1991 and are now back in Southern Cal living a wonderful life together. I'll be 81 in May '25 and enjoy reading all the comments left for this video - looks like a lot of folks are really enjoying it ;-) All the best, Stephen
Chuck Woolley was the ultimate man. Always in control, kept his cool, friendly, considerate, kind, never crude.
Woolery
@@jessyleppert2 Wuhlrery.

Gosh darn it - dating was so innocent and cute in the 80's lol
Back when people had class
Not really. I was in my late teens and 20s j to the 80s and people and dating could be just as shitty as they are now. People tend to over romanticize the past. It’s TV that has changed. Reality shows weren’t a thing yet. Nowadays dating shows are so extreme and weird.
Yes, it truly was romantic and magical back in the 80's - good vibe, great music & VIBRANT clubs ...
This was a proper tv show. Things were great, but some things never change. It wasn’t that innocent. And jerks still existed. People were putting their best foot forward here too.
It was a lot different. Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise. Things really changed in the early 2000s and not for the good.
A love connection baby! Gosh I love this show
Very different way of speaking and manners, remember she was born in 1947. I think it's very charming.
I could be wrong, but I think I heard that Chuck Woolery lost a son in a motorcycle accident?
Really good quality recording...thank you, love watching again... and Chuck Woolery is the best! Absolutely loved the surprise ending...wonderful to hear of the success of some of the "love connection" couples.
I love Judy's poise and cadence, her voice is beautiful and melodic also.
I know a very pleasant and attractive lady. Seems like she would be really nice to talk to. Steve is quite nice himself . One of the nicest couples on the show!!!
Women were so elegant and sophisticated on this show in the 80"s. I can't believe I didn't watch this when I was a teenager back then. Gorgeous.
I love almost everything 80s!! Especially the music. I was Ms. Happy Feet back then
Love the old commercials too
I want that Shakey's deal LMAO. I can plan my day. First pick up my Suzuki from the dealer and the shop at Miller's outpost go to Broadway then pick up dinner from Shakey's!

If only they had shown the show that introduced Zach’s parents!
@@jaycole2109and I'd love to see Zack now! :)
Makes you wonder how that baby looks now.
And now Zach is about 37 years old
My mother used to watch this religiously back in the 80's. Every afternoon ...We wanted to watch Nickelodeon. She wanted this.....
And now we have turned into your mother and we want to watch this lol
...and yet, here you are...
Same!
What a sweet baby! Most little ones his age would be so scared with their parents not there. But he's calm and even giggly!
I watched the baby's eyes 👀 and could see he was watching someone; possibly Mama.
Seeing the Shakey's commercial was fun! It was "the pizza place" to eat at, a point of hangout for Saturday nights. Great times!
And the price!
Too funny.
One of my fav shows and def best host
Chuck very handsome and full of class and kind
RIP Chuck❤
They really should put these tapes on whatever you put them on to preserve 😂this amazing time .all I do is smile watching this❤
awww that last segment was awesome!! so adorable
Handsome couple with 2 terrific personalities.
This show makes me so cozy feeling
I love the old times talk. ❤

I was wondering, during this episode, about how many love connections lead to marriage.
I believe this version of the show over the course of its run had about 30 marriages. I don't know that that's the right number but it's close
@@AldousHuxleysCat The show resulted in 31 couples being married. One couple invited Chuck to their wedding to deliver the toast.
Really cool baby !😊
Chuck is all class
He definitely made the show. He oozed charm.
They make an awesome couple.
Hahahaha…. The one guy thought that he resembled Stallone
A network should air "Best Of Love Connection" all February long next year. ❤️💞💝💖💘

I believe this works better than online dating these days for real
No, society prefers online dating, texting, and avoidance of contact as much as possible. Otherwise, the technology and media would be mostly useless.
