Geeez---so long ago I used to watch this---Jim Lange is so much better a host than Elaine Joyce ---she hovers over the contestants while Jim just stood away and let them do their own answering and didn't butt in like her.
I agree 100% how she hovers soo close and interjects while the contestants are speaking. Jim Lange didn't hover and he just let all contestants be themselves.
I didn't wanna SAY anything, but YEAH, she also did a LOT of outfit, earring and shoe changes during our show, and THAT was a lot of fun. LOL (one reason why I didn't go back despite the producer's multiple requests)
I always liked Elaine but she is annoying as a host. She kept interjecting herself to much & standing way to close to the person. 2nd game bachelor #2 could pass for Chuck Woolery's brother or son
Not only standing so close, but pretty much breathing down the contestant's neck, injecting what to me only seemed like UNWANTED commentary, and basically making a nuisance of herself! I mean, the producers of the show actually WANTED her to do all of that? REALLY? WHY??? Jim Lange never did all of that! He sat the contestants down in the chair, and then cut them loose to ask questions--and then he got the f++k out of the way, and gave them the floor and let them do all the talking instead of hanging around like a distracting little mosquito that you just want to swat and kill! I mean, Jesus, Elaine Joyce, you were like something straight out of an SNL skit, where you're so annoying as to possibly be funny in being so--in a preposterous kind of way (which either strikes the "funny bone" nerve of the viewer, or backfires and fails miserably to do so). Pot smokers may have been laughing at you as they mowed through their pints of Ben and Jerry's--but I WASN'T!! Why take the show the way it was, and muck it up with complete absurdity?! If it ain't broke, don't fix it!......
@@tj.espygil4544 wasn't she married to Bobby van, he died young in his 40s from a Brain Tumor.i know she and Bobby had 1 child. I don't know much after that. I watch lot match game on you tube. I'm a 80s kid. 😁🙂👋. Vee.
This hostess is a little too "in the face", needs to back off a bit. The show isn't ABOUT promoting her, it's about the contestants. She seems desperate to be in the limelight
Hello Sharon ,, Glad to see these shows of the past. I was a contestant on this show with the same host . I wonder if you have access to my show. I was the panel of 3 bachelors .Renota Powel selected me and we were awarded a trip to Switzerland and it was absolutely fantastic. Love to hear frrom you .
My late husband was on the show just before we met and when he was undergoing chemo shortly after we found the tape of the broadcast, he mentioned he would like to know what happened to the other “loser” from that Dating Game. It took me 4 days and lots of emails trying to find the guy, but I did and he and my husband exchanged emails and we went to dinner with him and his fiancée the year before my husband died. They picked up their conversation from 25 years earlier and didn’t stop talking all night.
Me, too! Never got to see it, thanks to Ronnie Reagan's "State of the Union Address", which usurped the airing. Since she didn't answer YOU, I probably won't be asking for MY show, either. LOL I LOST, btw, but was followed to the parking lot to sign autographs, 'cause "I SHOULD have won", according to my newly-acquired fans! They called and left messages at home and work every bloody DAY, but I never went back, and then Mr. T stole my limo when I WAS going to come back! Even funnier.
I guess Elaine Joyce has no understanding of personal space. She's practically joined at her hip while she's trying to interview these people I would find that so annoying I'd have to tell her to get out of my space. And kept interjecting at the most crucial points so I couldn't even hear any of the answers without having to go back and listen to it again. She has to go, I'm much prefer Jim Lang.. He was not intrusive and had a lot more class..
I absolutely ❤️ JOYCE ELAINE 🤣 😳 ABSOLUTELY A SWEETHEART IF IT WASN'T FOR MY SURGERY 🙏 I AM SO ADDICTED TO THESE VIDEOS 💯 ❤️ BOBBY N HER ON TATTLETALES 💯🤣 AND GREW UP MOMMY WATCHING GSN! OR FAMILY FEUD,PASSWORD, ALL I REALLY STINK AT CONCENTRATION, 🤣MAN I CAN NEVER 🤔 QUESS JUST ❤️IT! ❤️HOW THE WORLD WAS JUST RELAX 🙏 GOD BLESS STAY SAFE SINCERELY YOUR'S SUSAN FROM PA 🤗 BEING OLD SCHOOL 😜
Oh my gosh Elaine needs to stop talking... I didn't want to show in 1987 and I'm glad I didn't because this would have been so painful the answer is ridiculous the host is ridiculous keep cutting off the contestant asking her questions and feeling the need to make her own commentary during it is just really rude
The thinking was not to gets date,more so to get exposure,. I know John Ritter was on the dating game for exposure his agent booked the engagement ...many others , same with match game. But sadly ,in the real world hot women go years without being ask out cause most guys assume that they are taken,or are intimated by them...and they end up going with real losers 😔
NoW I can see why they asked me back, so many times. I would've said "beef jerky" for food, for instance. I WAS on this game, but at the TIME you were only allowed 3 game shows per LIFETIME. Even though I lost, I was followed out to the parking lot, to sign autographs. Imagine that. If not for good ol' Ronnie Reagan's "state of the union address", I would have at least SEEN the bloody show! AND...the "parting gifts"! Seriously?? LOL I got the sunnies, a year's supply of Turtle Wax, AND a year's supply of "Toastettes" (like PopTarts, only cheaper; still tasty, though!) Bikini wax? OR Toilet bowl cleaner?? OMG, I'm laffin' too hard. HOW'd I lose? She chose #1, thinking it was ME! AND, our big trip was to be to ALBERTA, Canada! I mean, no Jamaica, but no SEATTLE, either! THAT'S how they can afford the more exotic trips. LOL!! Anyhooo....take your "A-game" to the show, guys. ;)
You are indeed correct, sir! The lady who won the Seattle date picked the paid actor instead of the two actual contestants, my father being the tall one. The audience wanted her to pick anyone but the paid actor, and had she done so, they would have gone to some place much nicer. My father and the other guy knew the moment they heard the girl's voice that they didn't like her and made joke answers. I do not know if The New Dating Game always had at least one paid actor of the three contestants, but on this one they did.
Omg! This show is Terrible!! LOVE IT !! 🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣 TWINS? 🙈🙉🙊 EX-PORN STAR? 😅🤣The show is Like Days Of Our Lives!! 🤣👏😂Thank God! She didn't pick 1,2? 🤣😂What a Big! Mess!! 😅🤣😅
Wow she is gorgeous! Talking about the first Bachelorette of course; the 2ndoneiscute too by the way but not whatIwouldcall gorgeous. This dating game is pretty corney, not at all good as the original.
Of course sex is the most important thing in a relationship. Why would any man be in a relationship with a woman, AND have to have another woman on the side?
Elaine Joyce the Worst host of all time period. Elaine definitely imposed her own opinions and probably affected the outcomes of some of these outcomes.

Not really racist, just for practical purposes... I'm white,and I would have loved to date Vanessa,or another gourgous non white woman,but not practical unless she has my beliefs...sure you can co mingel but unless one has beliefs,or is willing to give up theirs then why bother getting all tangled up in drama. Sure everything is fine ,until you have to decide which church your children are gonna go to. Etc..
@@Lisa-MarieG Haha maybe. 😃Gay would be my guess as I think many people got on these shows because they were trying to become actors and weren't concerned with who their "date" would be on this show.
The Dating Game on In Living Color with Ugly Wanda was the best EVER! LOL
Such a great show!
Look ….., manners , well dressed, no tattoos, not obese. What a different world
I agree…all this.
-tattoos here-
You need to get out more
What a difference they had decent
commercials back then & way better than any today miss those simpler times 😂
No smartphone
I love the music at 24:03. A Milton DeLugg arrangement, I guess. Chuck Barris's shows always had good music, most of which Barris wrote himself.
bring back Chuck Woolery
Love this, thank you for posting it. All the best.
I remember most of these commercials... LoL
Miss all the old commercials
Did you catch Shadow Steveins in one of them? Later the voice of the voice of Hollywood Squares.
Geeez---so long ago I used to watch this---Jim Lange is so much better a host than Elaine Joyce ---she hovers over the contestants while Jim just stood away and let them do their own answering and didn't butt in like her.

Probably one reason she lasted that one season as Jeff MacGregor took over as host in season two of this version
Thanks for posting this!
Elaine's reactions to these guys is what really makes this show ❤.
dream date in Seattle lol
The quality Kmart portraits commercial was my favorite part.
And OF COURSE I got my kids’ pics there!
That baby was SO MUCH cuter in person than in that awful portrait.
I always liked Elaine but she is annoying as a host. She kept interjecting herself to much & standing way to close to the person. 2nd game bachelor #2 could pass for Chuck Woolery's brother or son
Bachelor 1 seems like a cross between Cory Feldman and Charlie Sheen, bachelorette is kind of like Carol Burnett maybe?
Why is the hostess standing so close to the contestant. That's awkward.
Yeah, very creepy. Nobody can take the place of Jim Lange on the original show.
Not only standing so close, but pretty much breathing down the contestant's neck, injecting what to me only seemed like UNWANTED commentary, and basically making a nuisance of herself!
I mean, the producers of the show actually WANTED her to do all of that?
REALLY?
WHY???

If it ain't broke, don't fix it!......
It was almost like she was giving hints to the man of her choice.
You all leave sweet Elaine Joyce alone. Come on now. 😜😜
Because that was socially inappropriate in the 80’s.
Love it
Elaine was about 15 years older than I was , by the time I was 12 or so I was madly in love with her . I’m 61 now and I think I still love her !
cute.
She's single now since her husband Neil Simon passed away.
that would make her 77 today--lol

Elaine's introduction is SAVAGE

Agreed. I disliked the season she hosted for those very reasons.

oh my gosh hahaha it seems like one of the twins are throwing their answers away for the other one, lol who would answer: "My bloodshot eyes"?!?!?
That necklace the host is wearing..... HAHAHAHAHA.... what is that shark teeth??? LOL.
meet the flintstones.
I always wondered who Vidal (Sassoon) was, what he looked like !
She wanted Mark after she saw him! He was the best one! The guy that got the date was odd. I would have chose Mark!!!
Wow, a rare KHJ-TV(now KCAL) Ch. 9 broadcast clip on TH-cam!(we're talking Los Angeles television here, folks!) 📺📺📺📺📺 😁😁😁😁😁
Thanks for the info. I always like knowing where the first aired.
What a terrible host!
Yikes 😬
Why?? Why does Elaine talk while the contestant is asking her question??
I hate than Bobby Vann died and it was hard on Elaine
Elaine did wind up with Neil Simon so it didn’t end up all that bad for her.
Beauty consultant aka Avon saleswoman
Joyce liked bachelor number two who looked like a cross beween Billy Fury and Elvis.
When the host said 'that was pretty good' she influenced the girl to pick #3 .
Damn peer pressure wins again!
That woman's voice is like nails on a caulk board. Funny show.
Caulk board??? lol
@@terrymckay9776cock bored 😂
Elaine Joyce was always classy, beautiful, and sexy. I had such a big crush on her in my younger years.
She did nothing but delay our broadcast while she changed clothes, earrings, shoes, etc. And hovered around the cute girl. Boring! Lol 😆
What ? They get to go to Jamaica for their date ??!
Nice to see men haven’t changed
Cold in that studio
I guess Elaine Joyce has no understanding of personal space. She's practically joined at her hip while she's trying to interview these people I would find that so annoying I'd have to tell her to get out of my space.

Always loved sexy Elaine on Match game panel,she looked better with straight blonde hair.

I NEVER BEEN TO JAMAICA
ME EITHER LETS GO 🏝
Basically the American version of Blind Date. Guessing this came first?
Why would a playboy bunny have to rely on the dating game to get her a date?
The thinking was not to gets date,more so to get exposure,. I know John Ritter was on the dating game for exposure his agent booked the engagement ...many others , same with match game.
But sadly ,in the real world hot women go years without being ask out cause most guys assume that they are taken,or are intimated by them...and they end up going with real losers 😔
She's going on there for exposure and publicity.
NoW I can see why they asked me back, so many times. I would've said "beef jerky" for food, for instance. I WAS on this game, but at the TIME you were only allowed 3 game shows per LIFETIME. Even though I lost, I was followed out to the parking lot, to sign autographs. Imagine that. If not for good ol' Ronnie Reagan's "state of the union address", I would have at least SEEN the bloody show! AND...the "parting gifts"! Seriously?? LOL I got the sunnies, a year's supply of Turtle Wax, AND a year's supply of "Toastettes" (like PopTarts, only cheaper; still tasty, though!)
Bikini wax? OR Toilet bowl cleaner?? OMG, I'm laffin' too hard.

This episode probably first aired between Sep 1986-May 1987, as July 30 would have been rerun season for syndicated game shows at that time.
Seattle Washington was the big prize?? You could see the look of disappointment on their faces.
You are indeed correct, sir! The lady who won the Seattle date picked the paid actor instead of the two actual contestants, my father being the tall one. The audience wanted her to pick anyone but the paid actor, and had she done so, they would have gone to some place much nicer.

I do not know if The New Dating Game always had at least one paid actor of the three contestants, but on this one they did.
The third guy that won the date with Vanessa was an actor as well.
The eighties were cheesier than the sixties.
They changed the closing theme or possibly overdubbed edited it.
I was loving the closing theme until they changed it.
Im actually surprised that their outfits look quite decent for 1987

Are Bachelor’s number 1 an 2 Brothers. . Jus Wondering 💭
I believe they were twins.
They're twins.
Painful sh!t. #1 and #2 didn't seem like the type to prefer women to me..
Guys favorite thing in a relationship isn’t surprising cause it’s still the same today it’s ok cause that’s what they like..
Bachelor 1 and 2 are wearing the exact seamen outfit?!
They're twins.
Did Elaine ever appear on the original Jim Lange-hosted version of DG?
Per IMDB, no. She was married to the late Bobby Van for most of Lange's DG run.
One of Elaine's final episodes
Those 2 guys are twins
Wow she is gorgeous! Talking about the first Bachelorette of course; the 2ndoneiscute too by the way but not whatIwouldcall gorgeous. This dating game is pretty corney, not at all good as the original.
This was the most annoying host. She should have asked the questions. She was already doing too much!
Of course sex is the most important thing in a relationship. Why would any man be in a relationship with a woman, AND have to have another woman on the side?
The second one Lori is she Molly Ringwald’s mom?
did you marry Shawn
IIRC, WGHP-TV8 aired this when I was young.
I can't stand that host!
i love her
She wanted a menage a trois with the twins...
I love Jamaica
She sounds like she would like to date the guys.
I didn't like the new format of the show.
I do
No serial killers?
No, just the child molester, number 2, next to my husband, number 3.
Elaine Joyce the Worst host of all time period. Elaine definitely imposed her own opinions and probably affected the outcomes of some of these outcomes.

21:35 - Shadoe Stevens!
Shadoe Stevens hosted Casey Kasem’s American Top 40 from 1988 to 1995 when Casey Kasem left to host his own Top 40 show, “Casey’s Top 40.”
The customer in that commercial looks like Leslie Jordan?
I’m sure Elaine is a great person but she’s an annoying host.
Really didn't like the host for a few reasons.
