Vivian Vance would have been 56 here and I think that she looks wonderful...

[@vitothepizzaguy7475]

I always loved Vivian, she was always so formal and elegant but she never seemed to act like a big star, she was down to earth and simply funny

[@sdgakatbk]

The Great Race is a very funny movie. Jack Lemmon as Professor Fate was great. Vivian Vance played a suffragette and the wife of a newspaper editor and was very good.

[@Diana-wg1tm]

They announced her as Lucille Ball sidekick. I would be very upset about that

I'll always miss Ethel and Mr. Howell....

Whether the truth or not, Jim Backus told this story. He either got a mash note of phone call from Marilyn Monroe, she just had to meet him in person. He told his wife Henny about it, and she said, "If it were any other woman, I'd be jealous... but Marilyn Monroe! You've got to do this!" So Jim met her privately, and what Marilyn wanted was Jim to talk like Mr. Magoo.

That $50 consolation prize was equivalent to $450 in 2022. Not a bad payday just for appearing.

REST IN PEACE VIVIAN VANCE 💜🎗️

I was in kindergarten then! I remember when The Great Race was in the theaters, new.

Aw, Betty White and her beloved husband Alan have been happily reunited. I love Vivian as well - I treasure an early, 1974 playbill (from an off-Broadway play she did) with her autograph - along with an "I Love Lucy" heart which she drew in. Also loved Jim Backus - the delightful Mr. Magoo. Cheers to all!

I love how the celebrities seemed a little nervous and eager to do a good job!!

Viv and Mr. Howell...childhood flashback!!

[@dlou3264]

Hello, Ethel! You too, Vivian! You look. BEAUTIFUL! Hi to you, too, Mr. Howell! Jim, you look different off the island!

The word "Moose" I immediately thought of Bullwinkle would be a good clue.

[@MrJoeybabe25]

I like Alan's look of amazement or disapproval at some of the rather lame clues or answers given by the players. He's part of the show, more than an MC.

BEAUWINKLE THE MOOSE!!!

[@user-cq3ng3qp6k]

Interesting way the announcer pronounced "trough"

[@kurtmorris454]

when Alan says there goes your time, usually that means you have 28 seconds left.

[@teeniebeenie8774]

love ethel mertz!!!!! she made the lucy show....

[@victimofugliness]

"Trough" pronounced "trow"? I've never heard that one before.
