I wish I could find Jan 10 1969, my ex and I were on Maternity day and we won...washer and dryer and stuff for Baby...my Baby(Son) is now 53 yrs old... the SHOW WAS FUN...🤗
If it is found, it would most likely be in a black and white kinescope like the one here since a huge preserved majority of the network version Newlywed Game's tapes has been discolored after Chuck Barris stored them in a closet.🖖
This is AWESOME! Thank you! I was 9 years old in 1969 and was having a blast! Looking at this old degraded video I would imagine it seems like "The Olden Days," but it couldn't be since I was there! lol! Honestly, If TV was still this much fun I'd still be watching! When was the last time you said, "You bet your sweet bippi?"
I was nine when this aired. Life was SO simple then. A couple of months later man walked on the moon for the first time and my grandma couldn't understand why the astronauts moved like little toys. 🙂
They should definitely bring back some of the couples and do an anniversary show! That would be so cool bet they'd get all the answered correct that way they'd win a new dishwasher or bed?
Wow-Za!...Mr. Whipple sold other products besides Charmin!!...I never would've thought that! Love the vintage commercials just as much as the program!!🤣😱🧻🤣😱🧻
Yes. Those wedding picture segments just before the station breaks were an early hallmark of the Chick Barris shows, including some earlier Dating Game couples on their dates.
I was eight. This was one month after Led Zep 1 and four months before Woodstock. He didn't say Hi Fi. But am/fm stereo console record player. 😂 good fun.
This may have came from a kinescope copy. Chuck Barris was completely paranoid on the network's wiping policy back then. So he stored all Dating Game episodes in a self contained storage room but the Newlywed Game episodes ended up in his closet where they ended up being discolorfigured. In other words, the tint's not good. The network version of The Newlywed Game only works in black & white.
I love the ads! How many housewives used Janitor in a drum? The bottle was green. How many kids begged for PF Flyers? I think some couples forgot, this was supposed to be fun.
On all of these show's from the 60's, 70's and even 80's - the wives are often called dumb, fat, etc. by their husbands. No concerns whatsoever about hurting feelings, or showing some respect.
Question spoiler alert: Can't help but wonder if the second couple is expecting. On the taller or wider answer, he said taller -- she does appear to be very petite. She however responded wider and made a motion to the front. I took that as a possible sign she's excited about expecting. Anyone else?
Well, that and the fact that some black and white "kinnies" were also sent to smaller ABC affiliates for delayed telecasts- those who didn't have tape machines, or telecast primarily in black and white.
Just wanted to say hello.... cos I'm also looking for a copy of the episode with my aunt and uncle! If we turn out to be related....that would be hilarious! 😄 Good luck in your search!
As wonderfully nostalgic as these are, I can't help but feel saddened at how normal it was considered for men to disrespect their wives. Some of the questions were so blatantly sexist and insulting it's cringey. My father NEVER would have spoken to my mother like some (not all) of these husbands.
It was in color but Chuck Barris put all Newlywed Game tapes in his closet and as a result, the color or tint was rather poor. So, a black & white kinescope tape was the only way to make this watchable again.
Between approximately 1965 and 1970, the networks touted the fact that their shows were in color prior to each broadcast. That practice petered out in the early 70s when every show on every network was in color.. since they were the third place and poor network, many of the locations on the ABC network, did not have color capability until close to 1970
Sadly I only have a handful of episodes from this time, but I expect you could contact Chuck Barris productions (or who ever owns the catalogue) and request a screener of the episode.
@@brucesmith9144 Naw....you can keep your Bluetooth. I'll stick to my Pioneer headphones, Mrantz turntable, and Kenwood speakers. Maybe it's just me....but today's woofers blow out fast and tweeters don't pick up enough of the "soft noises"....and mid-ranges sound like they've been forgetten. 😞 I'll put my headphones against your earbuds any day! 😉😁
This has always been one of my all time favorite game shows. The only thing that is a little discerning, is noticing that some of the husbands seem like they might be real jerks. Like with couple number one. Sweet lady, with jerk like that. It's also something, that when the game is in a couple's favor, how they're lovey dovey towards each other, but when the points start dropping,,, it can change the mood very quickly.
On our first two dates, I was a moral sorrel. We had no lights operated by a chain in our first apartment, and he'd probably rather see my figure stretched up than out. I'm below five feet tall. Nobody will ever ask us these things, but they should because now in my 60s, and even after 40 years of marriage, I have a nearly perfect memory. In the wedding pictures, just before the husbands were brought out, why wasn't the bride pictured? I would be fighting mad if that were us on the show.

That is so cool!!
In 2018 Bruce and Linda Kendler celebrated 50 years of marriage!
Wow that's awesome. Are you their daughter?
They are the real winners! Congratulations to them!

Congratulations!
We need some shows like this one today! Makes me nostalgic
The old commercials crack me up...LOL
I’m in my early 30s and I discovered this and other wonderful game shows thanks to GSN!!!!😊😊😊😊
Watching a 1969 episode of The Newlywed Game is like finding a 1969 copy of a Woman's Day or Good Housekeeping magazine.

@@ellenstewartbowman3898 Pretty groovy stuff! I was 9 years old in 1969, and I remember well the hairdos; The Beehive, the Shag....
I can understand why Bob is a National Treasure,over there.He’s perfect,for this show.
I was nine when this aired. Life was SO simple then. A couple of months later man walked on the moon for the first time and my grandma couldn't understand why the astronauts moved like little toys. 🙂
Did you tell your Granny it was all a plot to make the USSR believe we went to the moon.
I was 9 too! 😂🤣
Beautiful ladies
I was 5 in August of 69.
She knew it was fake haha
Look at those clothes and hair styles.
Wow they were all so beautiful!!! The 60s was honestly a really glamorous era
I need Janitor in a Drum now! Wish it was still available.
It’s still available from Walmart and amazon
They should definitely bring back some of the couples and do an anniversary show! That would be so cool bet they'd get all the answered correct that way they'd win a new dishwasher or bed?
Couple #2 made a comeback to win, also, ALL the ladies are super gorgeous in this 1969 Newlywed Game treasured classic gem!!
🚨 SPOILER ALERT!!! 🚨
@@r.p.mcmurphy6623 Thanks for trying! :-(
The men are all so well groomed, and the ladies are so glamorous and lovely. I love everyone's wedding photos being shown.♥️

I loved this show!
Poor couple number 4.They got all questions right except the last one
I know, right. And the easiest question EVER!
I don't know who was right.
the song in the background during the wedding pictures bit was "she said she said" by the Beatles. VERY unexpectedly awesome song!
Yes. Those wedding picture segments just before the station breaks were an early hallmark of the Chick Barris shows, including some earlier Dating Game couples on their dates.
1:33- the Carnation Instant Nonfat Dry Milk spot was later seen (in color) as a "TV Land Retromercial" in the late 1990's.
Wife number two is such a happy one🤣
I was eight. This was one month after Led Zep 1 and four months before Woodstock. He didn't say Hi Fi. But am/fm stereo console record player. 😂 good fun.
It would be nice if in the description if they told how many of these couples were still married.
Yes i was wondering the same thing the other night. Wish we all knew. And i love the show's
They're like 80 years old. I bet most of these people aren't even alive, much less together.
Like they would know. Dig Chuck Barris up out of his grave and maybe he'll tell you.
@@s6y9l Exactly
27:45- "This is the ABC TELEVISION NETWORK."
This ain't in Living Color!! BTW all of these people are now between 75 and 80 yrs. old in 2021!!

Eeeekkkkk those old wedding dresses 😳
Whaaaaaaaa? I think they’re so elegant and simple.
I love that it says "in color" in the beginning
Yea
You do????? Wow...
ABC Daytime Air Date: Thursday April 17, 1969
I love the ads! How many housewives used Janitor in a drum? The bottle was green. How many kids begged for PF Flyers? I think some couples forgot, this was supposed to be fun.

You needed a Bill Clinton in the White House with Hillary Clinton not just baking cookies to equal the playing field.
Some of the men - but not most - were disgusting.
Chuck Barris, "The Newlywed Game" producer, said if a couple loved and respected each other, they wouldn't likely want to do the show.
We have come a long ways I watched one where the husband aggressively pinched wife. It was sad to watch
So true, women have in the past and still take abuse from men. Things have improved, but not enough.
Couldn’t ask these questions today 2023
Question spoiler alert: Can't help but wonder if the second couple is expecting. On the taller or wider answer, he said taller -- she does appear to be very petite. She however responded wider and made a motion to the front. I took that as a possible sign she's excited about expecting. Anyone else?
I think she had a litter of puppies.
She went to PP and murdered the baby.....
@@leftylou6070 🤪🤣
Definitely.That’s a maternity dress.
Are are grandparents in 2021.
HUH???
I guess some station couldn't run this in color if played at a later date or this was kinescoped for an ad agency to make sure their ads were shown.
I believe it came from a trader in NY who worked for a TV station and transferred old TV prints at the station in off hours to bootleg.
@@TheWOCArchive Nice!

I've been trying to find an episode with my Aunt and Uncle from around this time period. Is there a database of contestants/winners anywhere?
I’m not sure, but you might be able to get in touch with Chuck Barris Productions. I’m sure they exist in some form still.
Just wanted to say hello.... cos I'm also looking for a copy of the episode with my aunt and uncle!

About that.

5:46- Dick Wilson (as a shoe salesman).
I was on the show May 1969 and was the winners. Would I be able to find that segment.
Sadly I only have a handful of episodes from this time, but I expect you could contact Chuck Barris productions (or who ever owns the catalogue) and request a screener of the episode.
Congratulations on your win. If you care to share, how did being on the show impact your married life?
That is so cool that you were on!
A stereo console!!
Isn’t life much better with a pair of Bluetooth speakers instead? Those old units were big and a pain to move.

Perhaps, but according to an earlier poster, they’ve been together for 50 years now
Gosh toooooo many commercials from originally show. I wonder how long did these couples stay married for?
Over 50 years for #1
Everybody’s diets must have been so much better,back then.On these early shows,no-one had an ounce of extra weight,unless they were pregnant.

That means that Bruce and Linda are celebrating their 55 years of marriage in 2023. The question is if both of them are still alive today.
Husband 1 is handsome :)
I like husband 4. 😊
He’s definitely the rudest
I've never seen so many correct answers... next up the women answer first
This is from April 1969, not April 1968.
Thanks for the historical correction!
Even the 1969 copywright date which was seen only less than a second said so.
wife #4 is fine as hell
She must be ver 80,now.Wonder f she’s still married to the same husband.
Answer every question right plus the 25 point bonus question 70 points
I was going on 11 yrs old. Did he call his wife an idiot? Maybe l heard incorrectly. He seemed irritated because she got the question wrong.
Getting mad over a game takes the fun out of it.
He called her dumb at 24:45
Wow. This show aired before the Manson murders. 🙄
Yikes I was 12 1/2 years old when this was on
Sounds like you were born in the same year as me 1956!

It Was Broadcast In Black And White
The show was broadcast in color, but was kinescoped in black-in-white.
Im glad they won. The hoover man verbally put down his wife. Called her dumb and she isnt. During this time, men were open about putting wives down.
Bof is great as the star of this show.
Watching these couples squirm is like watching chalk screeching over a chalkboard.
I think she means Bocci Ball/lawn bowling

How did someone record this back then?
Only television networks and television stations had videotape recorders back then.
wife #2 is a twit 😅😂😂
2nd couple doesn't kiss
Noticed that. They do kiss at the very end when they win the game and get the prize
willing to bet couple 3 are not together anymore. He couldn't sit any further away from his wife!
Wonder if they're all still
Alive?
