Say what you will, he was always entertaining; especially on the Match Game.

Edit: for more appropriate titling.  :grin:

I thought he had died years ago.

Amazed he lived to 79 with his known history of heavy drinking. Shit, he used to be plastered when he was on the Match Game.

RIP.

It is getting pretty depressing watching my childhood die one actor at a time.  This is how I will always remember Dawson.  Love me some Hogan's Heros.

I saw him most often as a kid on Family Feud. Even at an early age, I could tell he was macking on the ladies constantly.

Don't worry, old timer. You're not alone in that.

Though my mother was hugely into Match Game, which probably warped my young mind.

Count me in the club that remember him primarily as Newkirk.

Found this clip, the guy enjoyed his job. Best part is the very end when the buzzer goes off (seriously wonder how much of that made the air): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpSbeiPLB30 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpSbeiPLB30)
