PASSWORD 1965-02-25 Carol Lawrence & Steve Lawrence

[@nylanelson5212]

I love the Southern accent the woman from Virginia has as it’s very enduring. Accents are nice & it’s wonderful to hear people all speak in different tones

[@waldolydecker8118]

Steve Lawrence was discovered by Steve Allen and he began his national career as a regular (along with his future wife, Eydie Gorme) on Allen's original NBC Tonight Show. Lawrence's wit is superb and is very consistent with the Allen school of humor.

[@ericmccarty65]

they all seemed to have a lot of fun on this episode - made me smile

[@Rose-in1nz]

My favorite game show of all time.

[@lydiakraeuter4935]

nice to see pleasant people

[@donaldleroy6502]

Thankfully they gave future contestants another shot at winning by switching partners. Wow another 25 second 🌩 round, outstanding

[@waldolydecker8118]

4:10 Steve wasn't sure if his airline stewardess partner from San Antonio would be able to guess the word "dizzy" from a clue of "Gillespie." He initially assumed the clue would be too esoteric for her tastes. You could tell the audience wanted him to say "Gillespie" and they mildly groaned when he didn't. Glad to see on the second go 'round he tried it, and she immediately got it and seemed to indicate she would have gotten it the first time if he had said it. Lesson learned.

Carol Lawrence is amazing at this game

[@joeambrose3260]

And Steve Lawrence is amazingly annoying

@@waldolydecker8118 I'll say this for Steve, he's nowhere near as unstomachable as Robert Goulet

@@joeambrose3260 lol, on that note, I would agree with you. Never could understand how the delightful Carol Lawrence latch on to Mr. Goulet.

[@joecaroselli5858]

The celebrities here named "Lawrence" (of course stage names for both) are both still alive. This is one of the few examples of that, since most of the time, both (or at least one of them) have usually passed away.

[@ellengutknecht4994]

Steve sadly passed away on March 7, 2024

[@ellengutknecht3149]

I wish Eydie Gorme Lawrence could have been on the show. I love Carol Lawrence.

[@XXthekingofyouXX]

Carol is the epitome of a classy woman.

[@MrJoeybabe25]

As of 1-15-22 Carol Lawrence is still alive. She's 89!

[@ellengutknecht4994]

Steve passed away on March 7, 2024. We loss a great one.

[@audreymai2773]

Love how they made fun of the southern girl, but she ended up being better at the game then the "city girl". Lol! I am from Tennessee, so it made me happy. :)

[@waldolydecker8118]

Nonsense. They were rightfully laughing at her thick accent that made it difficult to understand some of her words - not how she played the game. The "city girl" demonstrated over multiple episodes that she was a superb player of the game, so the claim that the southern girl "ended up being better at the game" is a sophomoric stretch at best. They didn't even have sufficient time to finish the round. For all you know the contestant who was leading could have lost when they resumed on the next show.

[@TheSaltydog07]

I've watched many of these, and Southerners consistently play well.

[@TheSaltydog07]

@@waldolydecker8118 So, it's OK to laugh at someone's accent? Would you laugh at an Italian accent?

[@waldolydecker8118]

@@TheSaltydog07 - you are mixing apples and oranges - an Italian accent implies that the individual is a foreigner or relatively new to America; someone who is a southerner has been in America all their life and is just from another region. On Sesame Street they would tell you those two things are NOT the same, so don't try to equate them.

[@TheSaltydog07]

"Je t'attendrai" is the French song-- "I will wait for you." The Rina Ketty version is the best. It's on KZbin.

[@karenix1]

Años después Steve Lawrence personificaría al padre de la niñera Fran Fine en “The Nany”

[@FashonbugWA]

Since they are bringing back old game shows, wonder why not this one? If they could do it without making it raunchy, that is!

[@XXthekingofyouXX]

Lol, that would be impossible. People are proud of their perversions nowadays.

[@waldolydecker8118]

@@XXthekingofyouXX - exactly. raunchy not only will not be avoided; it is now a requirement.

[@kentdean3882]

They did bring it back, and it's a lot of fun!

[@KatieColekatielovesbaseball]

Do Edyie and Steve ever appear on the same show? It seems like they are always a week apart!?

[@marycook1644]

I noticed that often ! She tells everyone about his latest project ! I really enjoy her on Password ! 🌹🎶

[@ellengutknecht4994]

@@marycook1644 I agree. They never appeared together on variety shows or the Carol Burnett show. Just the ones they produced like Cole Porter, Irving Berlin.

[@marycook1644]

They are together again. Steve passed away recently. ❣️❣️

[@randilevson9547]

"Working Girl" took on a more negative meaning later on. Allen Ludden was merely asking if female contestants were employed.

[@engineerpat5290]

Is that Gene wood as announcer?

[@robbernath]

Yes - that's Gene Wood as a fill-in announcer.

I'm hoping for a contestant named "Larry".

[@phyllisadams4182]

Please refrain from making fun of regional accents. Some of us consider them attractive. Thanks.

[@karendeaton9297]

Please refrain from chastising. Most appreciate the accents, thank you.

[@KristaBrewer-rq7mo]

I've seen the word Diaper used lots of times on here. Why doesn't anyone EVER say Pamper

[@bryanspindle4455]

Pampers weren't invented yet. People still used cloth diapers in 1965.

[@kentetalman9008]

Ludden never heard of a hoagie.

[@randysills4418]

I believe that Steve Lawrence is still alive but I read someplace that he has Alzheimer's. Very sad...

[@ellengutknecht4994]

He is as of 08-18-23

[@ellengutknecht4994]

Sadly Steve died on March 7, 2024 from complications of Alzheimer. I thought he was doing well in the early stages.

Carol Lawrence just had a baby? And already she's going off to perform. She should give up her career like any decent Christian woman and stay home with her baby and be in the kitchen cooking a nice meal when her husband arrives home from work.
