Groucho Dances! (Highlights from rare episodes of You Bet Your Life)

[@billymanners5752]

We are so fortunate that they saved these treasures. It does not get much better than this.and Groucho was truly a unique one-of-a-kind fabulous entertainer. And he was lucky enough to come from a family of entertainers. All of them were talented .

[@Frankincensedjb123]

I was born in 68, but I've been watching a lot of the You Bet Your Life videos lately and love them. More entertaining than most of today's shows. I remember David Letterman in the early days of his show saying that the average folk should come up and be interviewed. He never really did it, but here ya have it, and many of the people are WAY more entertaining than most of today's air-headed "entertainers." This was hilarious.

A multi-talented man. The one, the only, Groucho. He really could dance as these clips show. “You Bet Your Life” was so wonderfully entertaining and allowed Groucho to showcase his comedic talents. I used to watch it as a young boy.

It's great that the guests didn't mind, and accommodated his antics in their big moment on TV!

Whenever I see Groucho dance, it reminds me of his movies. It looks like he likes to dance.

There is nothing else like Groucho Marks dancing! He really moves. And I haven’t laughed that much in a long time!

'' PURE GENIUS ''....the one & only GROUCHO .

[@susanjensen4678]

Just love these vids! What an amazing man he was. Hosting a show with such humour, wit, spontaneous dance being extremely charming and sexy as well. And more fit than a lot of people half his age. A genius. Sorely missed

[@billknight9430]

A genius, totally in fits of laughter, such a comedy master.

[@jpicking]

lol love this video. i always liked his songs from his movies and on whats my line about new jersey as well. he is the best comedian that there ever was.

Not only the greatest comedian of all time, but one heck of a dance. Watch the legendary Captain Spaulding video, too.....the one, the only GROUCHO !!!

[@johnklar5131]

You Bet Your Life was on a local UHF channel at 10:30 PM when I was in high school 40 years ago. I never missed it. Now I watch it and realize that those women I got a crush on are in their mid to late 80s, or dead.

[@aliced7505]

And that makes you young?😁

NOT BAD FOR A 63 YR OLD GUY---GROUCHO STILL ONE OF A KIND

[@therrienmichael08]

Yes I figured he's in his 60's then and spry.

[@loupasternak]

63 not really that old now. was back then

[@TheHaratashi]

There is just something unique about how he moved. He is very interesting to watch.

[@sneadh1]

Groucho swings better than any of them!

[@guyfawkes9951]

If you haven't seen them go watch the first four Marx Brothers films. Even if you don't get all the references you'll be seeing the greatest comedians that ever lived. Groucho could have done a show based entirely on reading obituaries, death notices and descriptions of horrible accidents and somehow he would have made it funny!

[@123Rockchild]

I think Groucho couldn't help himself to start dancing when he heard music!

[@lydiabarad8567]

Great video- still laughing! He was a character! Thank u!!!

[@grouchomarx-youbetyourlife7476]

+Lydia Barad My pleasure-- glad you enjoyed it!

[@frankkolton1780]

When Groucho isn't clowning too much, you can see that he can be very smooth, graceful dancer.

[@jamesjohnklipper536]

They need to put YOU BET YOUR LIFE back on the air.

[@robertbeacham4314]

James John Klipper They tried with Bill Cosby, but he wasn’t Groucho!

[@123Rockchild]

They would need Groucho Marx back. He made the show.

Can you please suggest what might be the best DVDs to get of You Bet Your Life to get most available episodes with the fewest duplicates?

[@sky2cpittman341]

That's funny stuff.

[@WhatsMyLine]

It's not all that intelligible in the video, so for those who didn't catch it, at the end of the Bunny Hop segment, Groucho was saying sarcastically to the male contestant, "A fine way to make a living!"

[@theressamurphy2996]

Groucho was fun and funny🎉

I think the a Hawaiian lady was a fairly well known entertainer named Hilo Hattie.

[@alanfoster6589]

Yes. Pretty much the unofficial ambassador of Hawaii when she was alive.

[@TrumpDesantis-zm3kg]

Anyone know the girls name doing the bunny hop?

[@YouzTube99]

And people think dancing on game shows started with Steve Harvey on 'Family Feud' -- not!

[@notmadheardthingsinhell8079]

Some of his movements are so Groucho. This is one way to tell you it is Groucho Marx. Even though he aged.

[@-Luka-Brazi]

I love and miss Groucho! It’s always somehow strangely unfair when comedians die. As if they should be given dispensation for having made the world laugh.

[@mosesberkowitz3298]

The young girl at 4:17 might be his daughter....anyone know?

[@grouchomarx-youbetyourlife7476]

The older brunette girl is, in fact, Groucho's daughter Melinda. Good eye. :)

[@mosesberkowitz3298]

Thanks.... I'm a groucho fan from way back...

[@ealswytheangelicrealms]

I would like to see lady doing the chicken imitation appear on the Jimmy Fallon show today and see his and the audiences reaction. Great thing about these old You Bet Your Life Shows is there is no political correctness and any and all entertainment goes. Bring back the days of these great TV shows without all the censorship. If something offends you simply don't watch it but don't tell other people what they can and can't watch.

[@robertewing3114]

Directors hated working with Groucho, everything he did in a scene was funny, a nightmare for the movie industry, if asked to be serious he would say sure I can be delirious, who are you again? Groucho loved working with directors, everything they did during a scene was fenetic, until they became delirious.

[@muppetonmeds]

I im sure if he was youngerhe Could Have Danced lol
