On the second-season opener of the late '70s version, Jim Lange introduces a couple from "last season" that met on the show and have become engaged. GSN has never run this episode.
As for "Love Connection", I read somewhere (can't remember where) that the show produced something like 40 marriages, and 22 births. [/quote]
The Jeff MacGregor run of Dating Game had Love Connection-inspired segments in the 1988-89 season where a couple who were fixed up previously on the show told about their trip and if they hit it off...[/quote]
And a regular feature on Cilla Black's "Blind Date," the UK authorized version of "TDG"--in far shots of the set, you always saw the sofa stage left where Auntie Cilla interviewed the couples.

When ABC originally ran Dating Game, bumpers would occasionally show photos from weddings featuring couples who had met on the show.
Since GSN runs the show so infrequently nowadays, I don't know whether they just excised those pieces, or those individual programs never came up in the rotation.

I've seen some ABC DGs with photos(can't recall if the photos were of couples on dates or of weddings) going into commercial breaks on GSN in the past.
