WML was kinescoped in the 50's for West Coast broadcasts until CBS switched to videotape circa 1960, But like the other networks, CBS kept reusing the tapes erasing what was on them (it is why there are almost no Tonight Shows preserved on tape prior to 1972). However Mark Goodson saved the kinescopes from his game shows in the 1950's and had kinescopes made of all of his shows in the 1960's for his personal collection.

This was the first episode of WML I've ever watched. I really enjoyed it. I really loved Ms/Mrs Francine. (forgive me if I have her name wrong) Now I have to find what she has been in before and check it out. I really loved her personality. It was also great seeing Betty White.

I think the JUDGE was being "way" to technical with the answers. When they were "perfect" questions and she always said no. The judge has the altimate decision in cases. John Daly had to keep nodding his head "yes"

I believe the original comment was in reference to the rather loopy second, female guest, whose profession was that of a judge, not the venerable Betty White or the sorely missed Arlene Francis.

The blindfolds seem pretty silly. Why not locate the mystery guest in such a way that the panel can't see them? A partition perhaps?
@bobthetvfan3 жыл бұрын
Gil Fates, in his book about the show, says they considered a retractable screen that would block the panel's view of the mystery guest; another idea was to have the panel seated with their backs to the guest. In the first case, it was decided that using and maintaining the screen would be too complicated and clash with the simplicity of the format; turning them around with their backs to the guest would cause audio problems. Fates himself proposed the blindfold idea and they used it for 25 years.

Louise M. Tesmer was a municipal judge in St. Francis, Wisconsin, for two years; an assistant district attorney for Milwaukee County for five years; and a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from 1973 through 1989 (elected deputy speaker in 1981, the first woman to hold the office). She resigned as a legislator on Aug. 1, 1989, to become Milwaukee County circuit court judge.

The comments on the judge aren't fair. She was being more picky with her answers because she was, after all, a judge. John Daly had to broaden her answers a little to make the game go along.

2 WML episodes were done the Sunday night that Pearl Bailey appeared on this episode. One videotaped, the other live TV. Broadway producer David Merrick was involved in the other episode. Merrick watched Bailey from the control booth and was mesmerized enough to approach her about starring in a new version of his musical "Hello Dolly." And that is how WML helped it come about.

I'm watching this in the days of protest and violence following the death of George Floyd whilst in police custody. Nobody on the panel refers to Pearl Bailey's race or colour and she gets a great welcome from the audience plus gushing praise from John Daly. Is that because she's a star or is it because race relations have become worse in the USA since 1966? This show never claims to be more than light entertainment but, if you watch many episodes, I think you can get an authentic taste of what people thought and how they behaved in the 1950s and 1960s. The clothes and jobs/lines are interesting but the attitudes (and the adverts) are fascinating too.

@WyattCox4 жыл бұрын
Race relations have considerably improved since the 60's. It's the coarseness of political discourse that has denigrated over the years. What's My Line always treated people of colour quite well.
@ccdj5042 жыл бұрын
Did you expect them to tie her to a tree on national television?! It's not about what happened on camera. It's about what happened behind the scenes and you don't have to be a historian to know that 1966 America was a turbulent time. Nostalgia sometimes lies. Don't fall for it.

The big difference is just reverance and respect in general,,,,back then people appreciated and respected each other no matter their line of work,,,, it's the way our society has changed, so many people are looking for ways to tear others down, no matter what...it's disgusting, I was born in 1962, I got to witness some of this wonderful era, I wish I had been born earlier.

Thanks to "soulierinvestments" for sharing that interesting bit of trivia...after all these years, it is still fascinating and the show remains a classic. The way folks carried themselves-back then-is the one thing that best exemplifies itself as being from a much different era-where far more respect was afforded to people in general. That era appears to be GONE FOREVER! Bennett Cerf passed away about 5 years after this particular episode was filmed...
