She could melt any man's heart!

[@nancyhowell4505]

Miss Higgins had such a sweet wholesome face and manner! Beautiful smile. Very appealing and gentle-looking, yet she'd have to be tough to go to the places she does and do her kind of job.

[@johnwhite4810]

This show gives me a brain "boost" whenever I watch it!

[@wayneyadams]

The two dummies was a great idea and very funny.

[@dorisp9127]

I recognized James Coburn shaving on his Remington in the commercial. I think that's how a lot of them got started.

[@dorisp9127]

@tinwoods I thought they called him Jimmy. It's funny to see commercials of how stars got started. There's probably a video on that someplace.

[@donnacook8994]

Jerry and Mortimer were hilarious! 🤣 I loved it!!!!

Marguerite Higgins was a lovely young woman - she had a degree from Columbia in journalism. she covered the Korean War. not many war correspondents were women - even during Vietnam. she so unfortunately died of a rare disease having been bitten by a sand fly in Vietnam in 1965. this really makes me very saddened. whatever happens afterwards, she’s happy. :) 🧚🏻 👩🏼

[@MrMenefrego1]

What a sweet person you are!

When I saw the second contestant was "Grace Kelley", I thought the mystery guest was going to be the actress Grace Kelly. To fool the panel. Doh!

[@CellGames2006]

I was thinking there's no way are they that stupid... would be too easy and a waste of a guest.

[@emmgeevideo]

a) There were no blindfolds and b) she doesn't spell her name the same way

Cerf - "Has it ever been alive ?" Yes, it has. It's from a tree. Paper.

[@direcorbie]

not everyone considers something that comes from the ground to have been alive.

[@MrMenefrego1]

In the 1950s, definitions were much different than today.

[@CellGames2006]

"Alive" in this show means animal. "Animal" on the other hand means specificlly "mammal". Fish and birds aren't animals, etc.

[@betty-jocarlo5980]

Perfect pairing with Edgar Bergman. My dad had a Remington razor.

[@GenLeeConcepts]

Oh my gosh, this was on a year before I was born, I am just seeing it for first time today (61+ years later) and it still had me laughing. Same question as others about Jerry Mahoney PLUS, he cost my mom $50 and a trip to Mammoth when I was on with him on Truth or Consequences with Bob Barker around 1964. Man, I didn't hear the end of it as we drove up Gower Street (after the show)-how I cost mom that stupid trip...all because she was asked would I talk or not talk if/when left alone with the damned doll [in a sound proofed room with only a couch]. She said i would cry my eyes out and the audience started laughing. Bob Barker wouldn't accept her answer. She said not talk...I cried my eyes out and was scared to death of the big dummy ;-) The consolation prize was a Hoover vacuum that eventually was worth more than the trip anyway. She still didn't forgive me! But even I can still hear the audience absolutely laughing till they cried when I broke out in tears. Poor mom!

[@MrMenefrego1]

Was she really that upset?

[@CellGames2006]

So crying was considered talking? She was forced to give a wrong answer even though the answered correctly the first time.

[@tasha0099]

Nice captions. Thank you.

[@voicetube]

Great episode!

[@cinibar]

I accidentally ran onto this episode again, I knew somewhere I heard Mr. Daly mention a 30 second commercial! I guess my synapse regulator isn't fully malfunctioning! :) :) :)

[@sagarsaxena6318]

I can understand. I have seen so many of these eps & most of the times it's very tough to recall which quip was made in what episode unless one remembers the mystery guest.

[@feralbluee]

that (the 1st one) is the most adorable pre-perfection commercial i have ever seen. i’d go buy a Remington for my Legs. LOL 🌷👯‍♀️

[@MrMenefrego1]

What's a "pre-perfection commercial"? 👀

[@Loruca]

I'm guessing Arlene didn't pursue the questioning about the "wooden head" because it would have been more fun if Paul winchell went ahead with it. Class act.

[@sugarjoe50]

Edgar Bergan...major ventriloquist act ON THE RADIO!

[@pattimaeda6097]

Winchell patented the first artificial heart.

[@dcasper8514]

Can you prove that ?

[@joekeen60]

​@@dcasper8514Google is your friend

[@bostonblackie9503]

Mortimer Snerd...loved him.

[@stephenperretti8847]

There is a story about Paul Winchell being upset over Edgar bergen being considered a better ventriloquist. Pauk commented that "but I don't move my lips"...Efgar Bergan did, in fact, move his lips. It didn't matter in radio where no one saw him or in the movies where the cameras didn't show Edgar.

[@dcasper8514]

Paul was correct in his statement of moving lips.

[@rogerpropes7129]

I wonder whether Paul had ever met Edgar before then. (Can anyone name Edgar's female dummy?)

[@richardsandberg5895]

Bergen was hilarious but he was not really a ventriloquist

[@asteverino8569]

Great show and vintage ads with early muppet characters.

[@bookwoman53]

My cousin’s 3 year old daughter is called Remington Moon. Her sister are named Aralysiana and Delilah.

[@tugginalong]

Arlene and Jerry exchanges were always entertaining. Read about Paul Winchell’s life. He was a true renaissance man. He invented the original artificial heart and donated his designs to a university to continue developing. He designed an electric car. He created a method for breeding tilapia to help poor countries feed their people. He invented a flameless cigarette lighter. He held over 30 patents.

[@MrMenefrego1]

That $8.50 that Remington offered for trade-in would be about $83.00 in 2022!

[@Mysticinvestigations]

Marguerite Higgins died 10 years later when she caught some crazy tropical disease while on assignment!

[@robertsprouse9282]

Wow, beri beri?

[@robertsprouse9282]

Wow, beri beri? dengue fever, malaria? Nope, Leishmaniasis a disease caused by a parasite found in sandfly bites, destroys the red blood cells..killed her at 45 or 46..

[@divinewon73]

When Higgins was six months old, she came down with malaria. A doctor told the family to take her to a mountain resort in present-day Vietnam to recover, which she did. Decades later, Higgins returned from assignment in South Vietnam in November 1965, where Higgins contracted leishmaniasis, a disease that led to her death on January 3, 1966, aged 45, in Washington, D.C. She is interred at Arlington National Cemetery with her husband.

[@NancySanders-om4ic]

​@@robertsprouse9282How very sad.🙏🙏🙏

[@leannsherman6723]

Bennett Cerf was obsessed with that question about is it or has it ever been alive?

[@RonGerstein-tf5tp]

Paul Winchell invested a practical artificial heart

[@RonnieMclassics]

I loved the Paul Winchell show 😄

[@MrMenefrego1]

Me too, Ronnie!

[@voicetube]

That's amazing that they would give $8.50 trade-in on your old shaver (as I understood the ad) because $8.50 in today's money is actually a whopping $80.12! Strange to think that you can get a nice new acceptable Norelco electric shaver for probably a little more than half that trade-in value in converted money.

[@divinewon73]

That’s because electronics are very expensive when they are first introduced and as the years past, they become cheaper and cheaper. It’s a great way to figure out what are the cheaper and more expensive items on the price is right. Think how much computers used to cost 10- 15-20 years ago, and how much cheaper they are for the most amazing laptops or desktops or even your own phone. As the technology gets older and more popular the prices go down.

[@voicetube]

@@divinewon73 Yes that's true - I have noticed that since the 70s when I became aware of the marvel of new versus older electronics, etc.

This was not an expression of modesty. They dressed and comported themselves with manners and a higher education level. It was the average behaviour and intelligence expectation, achievement, normal level, and the societal level of that era which began to fail from the early '60's and continued to desentigrate into the present corruption of today. We are far below the achievement, intelligent and standards of excellence of that era. An education received then was of a high standard and society was was much more caring and supportive.

[@richardsandberg5895]

Not for everyone

[@mvies77]

@@richardsandberg5895 Since this was an overall generallization of that era, of course not. If you apply your reasoning, the ultra rich families whom never faced famine would of course be in your catagory. Also the families whom did would be in another. That is why I made it general.

[@lydiawilliams255]

A ventriloquist on radio?

[@mwilliams1330]

For 20 plus years. Bergen was not even the best ventriloquist, but his characters personalities came to life, even on the radio. He came from vaudeville which was very popular, people in cites were vary familiar with his dummies because of this and of course pics that advertised the appearances in their towns. When he went on radio people could imagine the antics of the dummies. Strange concept for us, but made him millions.
