I know it dates me, but he was always Newkirk first for me.  Like Bradbury, it's always weird when...

That was a guy with MOXIE! Kissed every woman that ever hit the set of F.F.

If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

As I understand the story-behind-the-story, early on there was a lady on the show who got so flustered she just couldn't get an answer out.  Dawson gave her a "kiss for luck" to give her time to collect herself, and then she gave a correct answer.

From then on, he kissed every woman who came on the show, as it seemed only the right thing to do.
