The Dating Game And Some Other TV Shows

-

Yes, yes I know. There was supposed to be a break. But..1. Old habits die hard, 2. I'm really a great organizer. Everything's taken me much less time that I thought. Air tickets and train tickets, in Poland and in the UK. There is not a direct flight from Warsaw to Bristol so I have to go to Kraków first and I've also bought train tickets from Swindon to London and from London to Cambridge (and return too). 'You have a schedule planned like a royal visit', my friend Jane has told me today..yes, I don't have to waste our time. 

Anyway I'm almost ready, just still need some more presents, and take care of my husehold members (shopping) and last but not least, food for my two stray cats ..They feel I'm not a cat person, but recently one cat has come to terrace to tell me that I've forgotten about the food..

And today while walking, I suddenly remembered an Australian David's fan. Her name is Lynn or Lynne, and we used to write quite a lot a few years ago on The David Cassidy Official Website. And once she took part in an Australian tv game show, I think it was in 2019, but today I've tried and tried to find it on the website (she put a link to it), and on  YT, but nothing. I can't even remember the name of the program. Anyway there were four contestants and each of them answered questions from the chosen subject, And her subject (field, topic, I don't know which word is correct) was David Cassidy. She answered all questions, she was better than other contestants, and she won that game. It was just wonderful, and I watched that program several times..but now I can't find this link..Maybe Lynn/Lynne reads my blog, maybe someone remembers...

David Cassidy took part as a guest star  in some tv game shows, and the first one was of course  the famous The Dating Game. In 1970. What a shame but that video is very bad quality..

And he was on another famous game show, Hollywood Squares, in 2003

But I like the most David's guest appearances (4 times) on 'Win, Lose or Draw'. The date is 1989. The show debuted in September 1987 and run until 1989. The video is long, but we can watch all four episodes with David. He was enthusiastically greeted by the audience, it was also (I think) a great pleasure for him to work again with Bert Convy ( 3 times on The Partridge Family). And it's such a fun to watch..

  I learnt yesterday that Robyn Millan died last year. Someone published a post about the TPF's episode where she'd appeared as a guest star, 'Dora, Dora, Dora', Season 2 episode 1, aired 50 years ago, on September 17, 1971..And there was a comment about that episode that the script was poorly written, sexist etc. Maybe, no one would dare write something like that now, but the world looked different half a century ago..And I really felt sad yesterday because of Robyn. She started her short career in 1965, 33 credits, mostly tv roles - Mission:Impossible, The F.B.I, Hawaii 5.0, Ryan's Hope..But we would remember her as Dora, the girl Keith fell in love with, and Robyn, the girl David dated for a while.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmZnk9RFKm0&t=1s  In December 1971 on Photoplay Magazine an interview with Robyn was published :' He is just marvellous and really knows how to handle his success.(..) We hit it off from that first day six months ago.(..) I resp...

Love Is All That I Ever Needed. A David Cassidy Biography. Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 The Divorce David Bruce Cassidy was born on April 12, 1950 in New York City. He was born into show business, it was running in his blood. His parents were young and glamorous working actors. Jack Cassidy was 23 years old, Evelyn Ward 3 years older, both very busy with their career, frequently touring and absent. David spent his early years with his maternal grandparents in West Orange, New Jersey, just 20 miles from New York. He felt he was different from other kids, didn’t exactly fit in, his school friends’ parents didn’t look like his, they had ordinary jobs, like his grandfather, Frederic Ward, who all his life worked as a utility meter reader. David was a small child, slightly built, and had to wear glasses. During his life he underwent 5 eye operations. It wasn't easy to be the youngest, and not to have a brother or a sister. Someone to fight with, but also to play with, and to share love, good and bad experiences. He was a lonely child, brought up by honest,...

'He Was So Pretty You Couldn't Look Away..'

'and sexy in a way that is timeless.' It's from Kevin Fallon's article published on www.thedailybeast.com on November  22, 2017.  Maybe it's not the smartest thing to do, but the newest article about David Cassidy on Record Collector Magazine, and first of all different pointsview of it, made me have a look on some articles published after this horrible day,  November 21, 2017. But first a song. We experience another heat wave here in Poland, I haven't seen a rain in many days, which is scary, so maybe a song about a rainy day. We miss David on any day, and this is one of his best songs. And amazing, very moving tribute video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ6qjfK72L8 We have 42 web articles from November and December 2017, on the website, and I can't see Kevin Fallon's on the list, even that I'm sure I sent it Jane last year, because this is not the first time I'm writing about this article. I'm a former librarian, I believe everything sho...
