I'm not a Spring chicken at 54 years old, but I was taken back how Richard Dawson looks here. I guess I've lost track on how long ago he did Family Feud.. I was not aware of the stroke he had. Thanks for posting this video..

RIP Richard Dawson...I still enjoy watching Hogan's Heroes today as I did growing up. My favorite actor on the show had to be Major Hochstetter and then probably Sergeant Shultz. Thanks Mr Dawson and to all the cast and crew for wonderful entertainment. They don't make TV like this anymore. God Bless.

May I wager a guess, and say you are 50-ish. I'm 51, and in the past year or so I've lost more people in my life than ever, especially my dad. Every time a Hollywood great/actor from my youth passes, I feel it more & more. I can't say I never thought I'd get to this stage, I just never thought it would come so quick.

I didn't realize till now that Richard Dawson had passed away this last June until I saw it here. That makes Robert Clary the last surving member of the regular Hogan's Heroes cast. What a great show it was.

Richard Dawson.. my my, he also did game show with the stars, Charles Nelson Riley and a slew of old Broadway actors and actresses, "The Match Game" . He will be missed, yet I'm sure all the previous stars before him was glad to see an old friend.

The thing about many of the 1960's british groups was that they along with some foreign accent singers didn't have an accent when the sang. I notice it as a kid because the TV host of a show spoke to the singer for a bit and yet their songs I heard on the radio were in the normal english for the other tunes I heard except for Country tunes . Peter Noone had an accent but Jerry and the Pacemakers or Peter and Gordon plus Van Morrison sang their words instead of how the would speak them.

actually most of what passes for comedy today on tv is insult comedy, but you are right because they are always personal insults aimed directly at some character - not generalizations that might possibly offend someone, god forbid. I don't think I've laughed at a tv show in 25 years. Personal insults are mean-spirited and show total lack of respect. Generalizations play on stereotypes and are funny unless you are too thin-skinned to laugh at them. I miss Don Rickles, Richard Pryor, etc...

His "American" accent is honestly come by, as his father was American, but I'd sure like to know what sort of "British" accent he had growing up in England-- he's from the south coast, so I imagine he sounded "local", but a small child telling all the Yank GI's he could talk like them, and then doing it, must have been a hoot! Maybe that's what made him go into showbiz.

HH had fabulous scripts and casting. You could tell the actors had great chemistry working together. All of them had unique personalities that meshed perfectly. The sixties were able to have TV shows about WW2, since people who fought in it comprised the audience. A show like that wouldn't work today, it's a different era.

Guys, I understand your sentiments as I was born in the early 60s also. I have memories of eating dinner with my parents at home (around 1976) then turning on the tv to watch Hogan's Heroes which was running in syndication. It was such a fun show to watch. I agree that the quality of today's sitcoms is scraping the ground. Today's shows usually include political correctness, men often cast as goofballs, anti-American attitudes, or morally bankrupt characters that aren't funny at all.

There were all great, and I am a big fan of Richard's-Hogan's Heroes, The Match Game, Family Feud, The Running Man-he's terrific! But my favourite Hogan's Heroes character is Schultz, then General Burkhalter, then Klink, and the rest. By the way. All you plus-sized folks out there. Relax. Remember how fat General Burkhalter, aka Leon Askin was in the show? He lived to be 97. Yeah!

To the best of my knowledge, Richard Dwason was not in the film "Zulu." Not the original 1964 version, anyway. I think you may be mistaking Dawson for actor Richard Davies, who played a minor role in that film.

Boy he sure looks different than his younger days. But sometimes when folks get older they change more drastically then we wish they would. I was just wondering what ever became of Richard Dawson and here he is . . . Always loved Hogan's Hero's & Family Feud when he hosted it. The last movie I saw him in was The Running Man and he was still young looking, but it's great to see RD is doing well and enjoying life. After all, that's what *life* is really all about anyway :)

Outside of the left wing/right wing political question, what PC Fascism does is kill comedy. Most comedy depends either on laughing at the misfortune of others, or in insults or, at least, puncturing the dignity of stuffed shirts. When everything has to be run through a filter of PC censorship, the comedy has to be toned down til it insults no one and punctures no dignity until it can only target a "generic" character, which in this country is the white male, or else be reduced to smutty jokes.
