Question
Hi my dad was on the dating game I believe in 1969, he ended up getting married to woman after winning(not my mom). Anyway Ive been searching and cant find anything out about it, is there anywhere that copies of the show can be obtained or at least a place to find out which exact episode he was on. His name is John Graves.

Thank you,

Josh

Answer
Sadly  Josh, the news is not good.  Producers of shows from that long ago have taken to a term called 'wiping' where they essentially do away w/ original shows that aired.  The reels rare essentially wiped clean.     It will be difficult, if not impossible for you to locate what you're looking for.

However, below is a link that may help you.  It's the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) and I use it like my bible for information.  Once you register as a member, you can click on other links. There are people like you looking for similar information.  Perhaps it'll steer you in the right direction.

I wish you luck in your endeavor.
