PASSWORD 1962-05-15 Olivia de Havilland & Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.,

[@djdon60]

This is great! My maternal great-grandmother was governess, to Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.

[@sheristewart3940]

Cool!

[@nadiazahroon6573]

Douglas was so handsome. Such a gentlemen.

[@craigsmith157]

56 years later and Olivia is still alive. Loved her in Gone with the Wind (1939) The Heiress (1949) and Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte (1964.) She turns 101 this year.

[@randysills4418]

Craig Smith 102 last July 1st!

[@maudeboggins9834]

Here we are in 2021 & Ms. Olivia died at the grand age of exactly 104. Born in July 1916 & died July 2020. Bravo her. Her sister passed at 96. Her father too.

[@christinalw19]

Her sister was Joan Fontaine. That generation was tough. My Mother, born in 1917, passed in 2018 at age 101. They endured the Great Depression and World War II. My mother lost her 1st husband at Normandy. May they All REST IN PEACE. 🙏🏼🕊❤️

[@jeprice08]

As of April 29, 2017 (the date I made this comment), Olivia de Havilland is still alive and is 100 years young! Now some people may not care about that, but I do; otherwise, I wouldn't have made this comment. I don't want her to "go" yet.

[@ameliareaganwright2758]

How profound!

[@joeambrose3260]

As of now (5-18-20) still she breathes at 103

[@AussieTVMusic]

@@joeambrose3260 she just died 2020

[@poetcomic1]

What a gentlemen Doug was.! He was the gold standard. He talks about he and Olivia de Haviland doing a radio play many years before and describes her as 'a little girl'. She was NOT a 'little girl' at the time.

[@poetcomic1]

@RUFUS T. FIREFLY He was 6 years older.

[@GiftSparks]

He really is a lovely gentleman. When his partner says what she does (art direction), he actually shows interest and asks her about it.

[@jacquelinebell6201]

Interesting that the word "movies" was considered slang back then 😊! Mr Fairbanks definitely came from an earlier era. He was lovely though. I had never seen him in these shows before.

[@allendemas7866]

Back when we had real movie Stars 🤩

[@poetcomic1]

The most confusing maneuver is to switch clues on a word during the lightning round. Olivia started off with stagecoach idea for 'stage' then switched to theatre. It almost never works.when time is that short.

[@AussieTVMusic]

Olivia was born in Japan and died in France at 104 in 2020. A legend.

[@user-rh2io7gm1l]

And raised in California.

Miss de Havilland will be 104 years of age on July the first, 2020. God bless her!

[@waldolydecker8118]

4:05 Olivia: "We're gonna make money?" Ludden: "THEY'RE going to make money. YOU work free."

Thank you for uploading!

[@KristaBrewer-rq7mo]

5 seconds on this show REALLY goes a LONG way!

[@march149]

So sad to learn that D C Hyde died two years after this was filmed. I am guessing it may have been due to his Naval deployment.

[@guitargalsings]

According to newspaper archives, Deloss C. Hyde died in a car accident in 1964. Passed away at Bethesda Naval Hospital. Very tragic. Seemed like such a fine young man. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetery.

[@kaw8582]

Thanks for the upload

[@dbopdbop]

I feel like this is the equivalent of having Brad Pitt and Sandra Bullock play on a game show today. These are HUGE stars.

[@janeiwasduncan8463]

But would they do it?? The stars of that era were a lot more classy, dressed nicely and, for the most part, acted civily.

[@GiftSparks]

I get the impression that the Sunday night version of Password got the big stars. it was a pretty big show since Sunday night was the biggest TV watching night- Right up there with the Ed Sullivan show. The weekly day time version didn’t get the same stars.

[@sheristewart3940]

I couldn't take my eyes off Olivia's pearls ~ those are the real McCoy ~ and the size ~ at least 10 mm.

[@YoBoyMarcus]

@@sheristewart3940 You've got bionic eyes if you can inspect them from so far away.

[@josephpalermo4538]

Believe me there is no comparison between those celebrities mentioned....Miss DeHaviland and Mr. Fairbanks were the ultimate stars!!!

[@robbernath]

Olivia: "Do you mean we make money on this show?" Allen: "No, they do (meaning the contestants). You work for free." Considering she sued Warner Bros. not all that long beforehand (1940s, I believe), I wonder if anything went through her mind just then.

[@joeambrose3260]

Boulderdash. They were getting 250-500 a show depending on status

[@MaryAnnMsbl34]

Fairbanks DeHaviland Lordy.

[@m.e.d.7997]

Olivia keeps giving two word answers!

[@voicetube]

For "Ace" I might have said "card" and then stretched out the word Kiiiing" (Maybe while looking up to the ceiling for a moment or nudging my head upward slightly - technically are not supposed to gesture, but they usually let you get away with small things). Or after "Card" maybe "top" (or "highest").

[@paacer]

The only annoying thing about this show is they have people in top jobs who are usually intelligent as contestants . I bet it would be a lot more entertaining if they had more ordinary people who wouldn't get the clues so quickly .

[@TheYellowTulips]

Requiescat in Pace, chere madame.

[@MaryAnnMsbl34]

ARMISTICE IS THE ONLY ONE YOU SHOULD NOT KNOW. THE REST WERE EASY.

[@gusloader123]

@@MaryAnnMsbl34 - Armistice is one that every one should know! An Armistice ended the fighting on the Western front in 1918. It is a terrible thing to sleep in History class.

[@gusloader123]

Get thee to a Library and check out a book and a couple / few of magazines ( NOT videos !) and start reading! Buy a inexpensive paperback dictionary and a Thesaurus and learn things! Words are what separate us from the four-legged creatures.

[@AlanTuringWannabe]

When I was a little kid I had a crush on her as Maid Marion.

[@519djw6]

I felt sorry for Rita. I don't think she played the game so badly, but some things just turn out that way.

[@GiftSparks]

Yes, I feel sorry for her too. The male contestant is excellent.

[@gusloader123]

She truly had NO clues and no answers. Painful to watch her sit there and do nothing. She answered: "Tired", A.L. said: "Roughly a form of the word, give me the exact word!" So, the daft woman says again: "Tired". argh! This was a horrible episode. She very much had the "Deer-in-the-headlights-stare". The horrible clues from the Celebrities did not help at all. Olivia d H. was slower than molasses in January. {I think her sister (J. Fontaine) had more "upstairs".} She and Fairbanks must have never owned a dog or a horse. I knew what a "Pedigree" was when I was in Elementary school. We had a Beagle (with a Pedigree) and next year we got a Horse with "No Papers", a "Horse-Horse". She and Fairbanks seemed to only know the scripts they recited in movies.

Was just thinking, when Ludden mentioned the encyclopedia dude how the Internet and maybe more specifically, Wikipedia turned the World Book Encyclopedia into a buggy whip! Amazing how the world has changed on a dime.

Olivia always seemed 2" away from crazy. But she was great in Lady in a Cage.

[@sheristewart3940]

The military service has been using passwords to gain, or deny access for ages, just like passwords allow or deny access to websites.

[@MaryAnnMsbl34]

I did not understand the weekly vs daily game.

[@gusloader123]

Mary Ann M - Hello. The daily game came on in the afternoons, as an alternative to the horrid "Soap Operas". iirc, it came on about 2pm (Mountain Time) about 1961, 1962. {So, 4pm Eastern Time because it was filmed in N.Y.C..} People that worked a Day shift job could not watch it, so the Network decided to have a game on Sunday Evening, called the "Weekly". Different procedures somewhat than the daily. Over the years the rules / regs changed on some things. A really good improvement was the idea of changing partners at the end of a game and getting a second chance. {Fact is, some Celebs were NOT very bright and the contestants suffered from that. Switching partners evened "the playing field".

[@gabe-po9yi]

The female contestant is one of the worst players I’ve seen. She wasn’t good at giving clues or guessing, but she always looked at her partner like it was their fault, lol. When you don’t do well regardless of who you’re with, you gotta look at the common denominator. That doesn’t just fit with games, either.

[@karendeaton9297]

I think Olivia had Rita's number

[@gabe-po9yi]

@@karendeaton9297 I bet you’re right.

[@gusloader123]

She was truly in the wrrooooong studio building. With that "Deer-in-the-headlights-stare" she must have been an out-of-town tourist who was looking for the Statue of Liberty tour or the "Radio City Music Hall" show. Daft and dizzy. She answered: "Tired". A.L. tells her: "You have given a form of the Password, now give me the actual word!" She stares around looking for a cue card it seemed and replied again: "Tired". ARGH! 😞🤯 I hope she never had children.
