Best Celebrity Moments of What's My Line Part 2

[@satori03]

Lauren Bacall was just GORGEOUS

[@reconnaissancesquadron222]

"Are you a corrupt politician? Or am I being redundant?" That Groucho chap is quite the shining wit, unlike so many in his line of business today.

[@mikebarnard7957]

Rosalind Russell is an absolute scream! Lovely lady. What a great programme!

[@Linda-pc2qh]

One of my favorites.

[@waynej2608]

She's great.

[@msmith1418]

I love her first name. As fair as a rose.

[@gregh7400]

A little bit of Groucho goes a long way.

[@andreatuckman1084]

Wonderful to see everybody again, may they Rest In Peace.

[@preciousthing101]

My favorite is Groucho. There aren’t any like him anymore. He was brilliant, hilarious, sharp and witty. Love him.

One of a kind. Legend.

[@billm.2387]

Great entertainment back then.....funny and clean...so missed those days

[@christinestill5002]

Fredric March, damn near every movie you see made between 1935 & 1955 seems to feature him.

[@stephaniegleason7440]

Johnny Carson on the panel: "I don't know what I have this pencil for."

[@rtususian]

If you haven't seen it, watch Tommy Smothers of the Smothers Brothers impersonating Johnny on The Tonight Show. It is really uncanny how he looks and speaks like him virtually exactly. And after Tommy sits down, he takes one of Johnny's pencils and starts playing with it.

[@dorkinabubble7772]

Jack Benny looked like he was ready to throw down 😆 oh man, that was my fav

[@Andrea-dv7od]

My dad knew Jack Benny. Dad was the broadcast director for the Lucky Strike Hit Parade and major news shows. Met lots of famous people and even dated top female music stars. He said Jack Benny was a favorite. The nicest of nice. A truly great person.

[@Ron-cr7fi]

That’s great to hear! I’ve been watching The Jack Benny Program lately and now I’ll enjoy watching it even more.

[@Echo-ux3wo]

What fun to hear your story! 🌻

[@H.pylori]

Groucho..."Are you a corrupt politician....or am I being redundant." Priceless!

[@Rickswars]

I loved this show just to watch my dad and mom laugh for 30 minutes.

[@academyofshem]

What a wonderful memory!

[@wendyonthefly]

I loved this show when I was a kid. Loved Arlene Francis lash mask.

[@frozenlake1215]

I think I enjoy the chalkboard sign-ins as much as anything else on this show, fascinating and wonderful

...couldn’t make out nearly half of the signatures.😕

[@bethe192]

Steve Allen was a man for all times, he'd have fit in during any era. His talent was subtle, intelligently funny, and wonderful. I miss him.

[@dennisfowler6916]

I miss him too. He was a truly understated, and formidably talented class act, uniquely unpretentious yet assertive without being agressive.

[@Marsbonfire007]

I miss Jayne Meadows!

[@bethe192]

@@Marsbonfire007 AUDREY ! even more. 😊😉

[@ralphdwonderllama3338]

Only problem with Steve: he hated Rock & Roll. Take away one star.

[@mistylake48]

Steve Allen hated Rock and Roll and when Elvis appeared on his show he told him to sing "You Ain't Nothin but a Hound Dog", then while Elvis was signing the song he rolled a hound dog out on a chair right next to him to embarrass him. Elvis was furious and refused to ever work with Allen again.

[@amyb.6582]

I wish Game Show Network had another station for just rerunning the old game shows. I love them.

[@LaCroixCreative]

How I love Jack Benny!

[@IPlayOneOnT.V.]

The episode that had Dorothy Killgallen's dad as the mystery guest was a really good show.

[@teresaf991]

so sad to think of her dad when she read discovered dead from an overdose at age 52. she seemed so sweet. Theories floated of being murdered over her tell all book of the Kennedys.

[@academyofshem]

@@teresaf991 Kilgallen was a top investigative reporter, and had just had the only interview with Jack Ruby, the assassin of Lee Harvey Oswald. It seems like Ruby spilled his guts, and named names. She was going to expose some rather high-level government officials *coughcoughLBJcough* and so had to be taken out.

[@Richard-db2ss]

Wonderful idea to compile these TV memories. I can only dimly recall What's My Line as a small child, but now it all makes me laugh in the best sense of humor.

[@RedcoatsReturn]

I loved this show....loved that era....1955-1965.....the rest you can throw away! 😉

[@Lava1964]

i watch WML reruns to remind myself how far entertainment has declined. This show was classy and entertaining. You won't find that combination too often in 2018.

[@laggeryt7558]

You're right. Amazing, unpretentious stars just having a bit of fun. PR managers would chop their heads off for being this unscripted these days.

[@glennhoddle10]

*Dorothy Kilgallen wasn't a mega beauty in the classic sense but she was gorgeous to me. She wasn't just pretty but she was also highly intelligent , witty and classy. A 💎 of a woman. I wish I could travel back in time to meet her and the rest of the panel.*

[@FirstLast-pm4rh]

Glenn Hoddle I can't tell you how many baby boomers have said Dorthy Kilgallen was one of their first or oldest memorable crushes. I think she was pretty enterprising and untraditional in the 1950s expectations of women sense. That's pretty cool. May be wrong about that though.

[@RedcoatsReturn]

Glenn Hoddle Me too! I could protect her from being murdered ...a great and evil tragedy of that time!

[@kelloggs5473]

@Redcoat’s Return - A possible exhumation of Dorothy’s body from Gate of Heaven Cemetery is the latest approach that her biographer Mark Shaw has taken during his long campaign to give her justice. Dr. Cyril Wecht has promised to examine her body for DNA that a murderer might have left behind. Dr. Wecht has served as a consultant on investigations into many other unsolved deaths including the death of JonBenet Ramsey. Me, I feel Mark Shaw could spend his time more productively if he allied himself with a member of the United States Senate or House of Representatives so they can petition the FBI and CIA to declassify all documents. Mark should fight for the release of every document that mentions Dorothy’s name and every document that mentions Ron Pataky’s name. You are familiar with him, I presume.

[@ilonabaier6042]

she got dusted by the killers of JFK due to her ambitious research into his murder.

[@FirstLast-pm4rh]

@@ilonabaier6042 ok now, I'm missing the punchline...I mean, this is some kind of running inside joke right? DK was not murdered for real, was she!?!?! Methinks this be a shocking Googling session I'll be diving into in a sec...

Ani Merci that's because they were real stars not the bill s*** you see today

[@edsanchez6173]

Such classy people. This is what used to be called good clean fun. The ladies were all elegant and graceful, the men all entertaining and respectful. Wow, Lauren Bacall, is the definition of a knockout. Her smile alone lit up that stage - she was the kind of lady you just had to talk to, as intelligent as she was beautiful. I’m going to watch another one of these.

[@mpralinsky]

The best people as well as the best performers, appearing on what appears to me in retrospect as one of the classiest quiz shows.

[@antonnym214]

Ray Bolger was the man! Wizard of Oz was the tip of the iceburg. He could really dance! I loved watching him. He was every bit as good as Gene Kelly, who I also loved to watch.

[@cynthialyman2636]

Joan Fontaine was precious in her Southern Belle affect.

Jack Webb was the only one who managed to fool the panel

[@pronkerpronker6708]

Groucho can dish it out but like most comics, he has problems taking it -- way to go John Daly!!

[@dolcevitausa6448]

Groucho is a tad too overbearing...

[@GGCGAGSG]

Groucho has always been extremely rude. I never cared for his type of comedy.

[@faithoffaith]

I found him annoying to be honest. I wish he had stuck to the point of the game instead of trying to divert the attention to himself. I can understand the nature of show where it's fine to add humor here and there but he was contantly cracking jokes, trying to be funny when it was beginning to get irritating to the point he wasn't taking the game seriously, he never even asked one proper question.

[@waynej2608]

I think he's Great! 🤓🖒👀👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Boudica1313]

He seemed grumpy like he didn't want to be there.

[@renzo6490]

John Daly is elegant, articulate,polite, intelligent...we don’t see the likes of him often.

[@audreysussman6368]

Unfortunately, we don’t see the likes of him at all.

[@davepollison4333]

[@ellengregory8002]

@gcjerryusc Perhaps true, but it was honestly no picnic to be black back then. Black people were literally banned from certain jobs, businesses and even buying property in many places, plus many colleges would not accept them. It wasn't so great for women either. They had to work twice as hard as men and still got paid less, plus that glass ceiling was real and it was much lower then. That era was better in many ways but not every way Let's be honest and not idealize it.
