If you watch these old clips you will see that this man was a top notch sex symbol. Kissing Dawson was apparently like experiencing second base for the first time at summer camp all over again.

Family Feud went on the air in 1978 with Dawson as the first host. He was coming off being the coolest panelist on Match Game for years and it was clear he was the man for the job. 34 years later, Feud still rules the daytime airwaves, and is on its 6th host with Steve Harvey.

Gameshows... democratizing American television one everyday citizen at a time. Occasionally you get a Ken Jennings...but face it, it's way more fun getting the dumbs dumbs. Dawson handled these folks with aplomb.
