Hard to fathom...a few months after this showing,Dorothy would be gone....A brilliant woman...RIP.

Tugs at the heartstrings seeing Dorothy Kilgallen, especially on her birthday. 😢

A Rockette who didn't know the scoring system on WML so never saw the show, usually working on Sundays? Syd Simon's handwriting was very artistic & then we saw Why - a Make Up ARTIST. He looks a bit like Orson Welles. Arlene Francis was so quick witted - "Chuckles Cerf" is so typical - but NEVER catty. Wonder why her Son moved her to San Francisco in her last years - for Privacy since she was so well known in NYC? Internet shows her having a very distinctive style as always even in her 70s & 80s. She still looked like the sort of person you wanted to be sat next to at a Dinner Party. Myrna Loy was so good as a foil to Cary Grant in 'Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House'. Grant is Finally to be commemorated in his Birthplace of Bristol. Archibald Leach needed to go to America to become Cary Grant.

Instead of asking "Is it....?" Kilgallen asks "May I assume it's Not..." which could involve Every thing in the known universe AND of course that the camera is on her for AGES. She also takes her sweet time asking. Cerf was right, she does hog the camera.

Jack Jones died 10/23/24.

My father fought at first battle in Guadalcanal. I didn’t know she had gone there and wish I could have asked him if he saw her before he passed in 2012.

Dorothy seemed a little… spirited tonight 😂

Died 2016😢

Long career for Sir Ralph Richardson....Made it into ''Time Bandits''

One of the first TV game shows to have franchised over the world.Maybe the first.

How does a professional archer make a living?

I would have loved to be at a table at Toots Shor's,with John Daly and Bennett Cerf..I can only imagine the conversations.

18:39

Who here remembers elevator operators? I do! What fun hearing them call out the different floors and all that floor afforded!

Poor Dorothy only has 34 days to live in this episode 😢

My dad used Mrs Morrison‘a product and it was so loved by its users.

The fish from the stream was emergin' It's prospects of food was encouragin' Then a log that had fallen In its path it was callin' And thus he became a tree sturgeon

Fred MacMurray shared about when he was out with his wife after he made the movie "The Apartment" and a woman got mad at him because she thought it would be appropriate for her children to see. He told his wife afterwards that he would never make a movie like that again and he kept his word.

I was accidentally playing this at double speed - it’s hysterical!

I could tell Bert lahrs voice in an instant ♥️

I was brought up near New Haven, Ct., and often ate pizza there. The Italians there pronounced it “a-beets.”

Love this program, and have since I was a child! Such great fun seeing Don Ameche who was truly a great actor in some of our favorite classic films!!! ❤🙌

Cerf is sooooooooooooo creepy and gross when he's talking to those little girls about their "abbreviated' costumes. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

I grew up in los Angeles California and on Adams boulevard where I went to church i would see sugar ray Robinson on the corner at a news paper stand with this white gentleman every Sunday morning around 1974.

I should have seen this one live as I was 13.

What did the audience member yell out?

I love that a gentleman can come on this program as a guest contestant and sell baby rattles (or in another episode, an individual is a pretzel twister), and people view him respectfully; and that he has this wonderful refinement about him, a wonderful comportment. I love that on this show everyone is treated with equal respect and concern, that everybody is honored for what they do.There is a grand sense of equality and a similar display of kindness and validation through the interactions between the people that are on it.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

What happened to Cerf's tux - the trousers don't match his jacket.

Kiilgallen saying "Come again" to guest panelists shows how much she thought the show was hers. As usual shouting down the line, telling Cerf what to ask. Her silly giggle totally inappropriate for a woman of her age & a New Yorker. Daly has to use the verbal skills of a Defence Lawyer.

Dorothy passed the year before....Very sad.A brilliant woman.

Steve Allen and Jayne Meadows were together FOREVER....They made it into the movie ''Casino''

all these awards mean nothing to the public.

When people had class,integrity,beauty,and intelligence.Bring that back in 2024.

I wish they had shown a picture of a mink golf tee

I have many favorite actors and actresses but Olivia de Havilland ranks far above them in so many ways.

Ive remembered the panel from 1950 to 67😊

The lady lifeguard was lovely, but the dress was definitely something else!

Three years later, Abbe Lane played "Beebe Gallini."

The second contestant had Joan Bennett's hair from "Dark Shadows."

The clips of Walter Cronkite announcing the death of JFK always stick with me.

Bennett: Always trying to get a word in edgewise.

I wanted to be just like Carol Burnett when I was growing up. I have to humbly say I make my friends laugh but not nearly as much as I do. ❤🤪❤🤪

Never seen a Lee Remick movie

The looked like newlyweds here.

After reading a number of the comments below, and those attached to other "What's My Line" episodes, all which center around the importance of kindness and grace and elegance, genuine compliments and charitable attitudes from those on the panel and Mr. Daly, and all of the respective guests that were on this show over the years, I am reflecting now over 75 years of life on this Earth, and I have been becoming more acutely aware of how many people are so self-centered and love to talk about themselves but never take the time to inquire about you, or "the other person," and to be willing to (also) ask probing questions to learn from another person's experiences in life and their perspectives. We have a very narcissistic society now. I often think about why so many people behave this way, and I have concluded that many believe they are "filled" with huge font of knowledge because of our computer age with the easy accessibility of basic information, and they feel proud of this knowledge base, and they define themselves by this. And when they meet somebody who talks to them (and from me, I try to present myself in a humble manner) outside of their life experiences, or basic knowledge, they feel envy, they feel "threatened," they suddenly feel insecure in themselves, all because, today, so many people do not like to learn from other individuals anything that they DON'T already know. No one seems to find it that it is okay to say, "I didn't know that; tell me more"; "Thank you for sharing that; I really appreciated learning something new,"--i.e., showing that they are able to respond in those positive and enlightening ways. This does require a person to be secure enough in themselves, and to understand the joy and love that comes from learning from what other people are willing to share from their lives, and to be receptive and appreciative while learning from others. And it is give-and-take; it's not just one person always talking and telling stories, (and often with a lot of minutia) while not giving the other person/anyone else a chance to also share their personal experiences, and then to ALSO be grateful for receiving the same kind of feedback, acknowledgement(s), validation(s). It's incredibly sad that our society is seemingly, and probably somewhat unconsciously, embracing self-centered behaviors, and that's unfortunate, because being a part of such an ego-centered society truly stifles energetic, creative, and dynamic interactions--conversations in which everyone can learn something and walk away feeling a little bit more enlightened. I always feel I've gained a kind of personal wealth when I can walk away from a conversation feeling more informed and appreciated, and certainly greatly pleased that the other party was receptive and respectful of my contributions. ~drs (11/20/24)
