PASSWORD 1967-06-12 Betty White & Frank Gifford

[@anabel2345]

I have a smile plastered on my face the entire time I watch these videos. It’s just so wholesome and entertaining.

[@genkatqltr737]

The best of everything, Password, Betty White, Allan Ludden, and the championship games! Thanks for posting!

[@karabeaulieu4044]

Betty white was so beautiful inside and out, miss her!❤

[@dmotta2811]

Betty White was so smart and so good at game shows.

[@robendicott781]

She really wants to do well and not let the contestants down

[@karabeaulieu4044]

I love how Betty loves these games!

[@BPP808]

I love when Betty is on. She is funny during lighting round "Buzzer" 😂💕 love allen and betty

[@lindaharris6200]

Betty being on made it really fun to watch & her interaction w/Allen is cute

[@todddepue681]

Adore Betty. Always chatting away with her partner in between rounds....really putting them at ease

[@valleygirlgg]

I love these old shows and it's so funny how the meanings of some words have changed! Bootee today is something other than what it was then lol. Very fun vids thanks for posting!

[@martinbrodie8507]

Yes they have.

Betty’s dresses are always very pretty!

[@ajones2308]

Betty White & Elizabeth Montgomery where for sure BEAUTIES AND TALENTED.

[@kurtmorris454]

so was Donna Douglas and Barbara Eden.

[@er2206]

Congratulations Nancy for winning I hope you've had a great life 😊

[@winifredodonnell2196]

I like old shows

[@3lttlbrds]

I always thought these videos were Betty in her 20s. Had no idea she was already 40s, she looks so much younger. The old saying is true 😊 Lovely soul ❤️

[@hendrixtimestwo]

That clutch answer was super clutch

[@glendazentz4250]

Yes I too love Betty White & AllenLudden. But Frank Gifford is not only a really handsome guy but He’s smart !! Great Players

[@-Ready-Player-One-]

They were very lenient on the bonus round. They were practically telling them the word. Betty White was the GOAT of this game.

[@kentdean3882]

Seeing these shows on a well-adjusted color TV set was a jaw-dropping experience. We now take such technological miracles for granted, but not back then ...

[@nunosoares2329]

Rest In Peace, Allen Ludden, Frank Gifford and Betty White. Overdue condolences to the families for your loss. 😔💐💐💐

[@dlou3264]

Loved it! One of my favorite games! We used to play Password in the car with the Password game!

[@martinbrodie8507]

I did as well. My younger brother and I got the home game for Christmas in the Late 60s.

[@MissPerriwinkle]

i could watch these shows 4 hours.... betty musta loved playin with cute frank, they did a few shows together.. he is a doll ! (sour dean, lol)

[@MalcomMarshall-i7h]

Allen always cracks that whipcord on the microphone when he's introduced

[@rubberdc]

HOLY!!! mackerel .....lol ....what a corker of an answer.

[@Skyesoceaneyes]

I feel like Betty could've had some kind of funny comment when they had the passwords 'hump' and 'booty' back to back. 😁 Back then you had to be a little (ok a lot) more careful about what you said on tv. 😊

[@lindaryan5997]

Frank Gifford was really good

[@andytaylor5476]

Nancy said buzzer after the first bell!

I was yelling seashells!!

[@miklos.]

I've never heard the word beachcomber before today.

[@martinbrodie8507]

A 'beachcomber' is a person who walks the beach looking for valuable or interested things like coins, shells and shark's teeth.

[@marycook1644]

It was a common word back in the day. 🦜

[@RepentfollowJesus]

I've heard it all my life.

[@xthatwhiteguyx]

I'm pretty sure "Medallion" includes the word "medal" and would disqualify Frank Gifford 😡

[@kurtmorris454]

definitely, and it wasn't the lightning round

[@jenniferfrazierlpc7171]

The guy saying the password sounds so funny!!!😆

[@valentinr.dominguez2892]

Frank Gifford had a great complexion. He must have been very young.

[@andrewpadaetz5549]

37 at the time this show aired. He had already retired from the Giants and football after the '64 season.

[@jillv4006]

I say sardine exactly like Frank Gifford and my kids laugh at me!

[@grapplergirl10]

Sour-dine..? 🤔😂

[@Raminakai]

When your family mispronounces a word and you think it’s right;))

[@RepentfollowJesus]

@@Raminakai it was right for his time and part of the country

[@kurtmorris454]

that Norm is a perfect example of why soundalikes don't work. He tried them twice in 2 consecutive turns and both completely threw Frank off. Fizz for Quizz and Hazy for Lazy

[@lilysogs6965]

Allen makes a quirky entrance. Not really negative, just different. I suppose he had to stay clear of the 🎤 chord

[@deanstrand4260]

I think that's EXACTLY why Allem's entries onto the set were so odd. If you watch closely, he always took several loops of mic cable. Once he got to the podium, he tossed some of it back, but kept a decent length onstage.. He had that move down to a science!

[@RepentfollowJesus]

I think the way he walks out with his chest out makes him look confident and friendly. Especially when he extends his right hand out. He has a flair.

[@lilysogs6965]

Frank is very good looking

[@Necile2]

I would have given "clamdigger" as a clue for "beachcomber."

[@Norfolk250]

The bell ringer must have O.C.D.

[@lawsonj39]

Hey, it's a living...: )

[@Diana-wg1tm]

I'm sure that guy isn't happy with Frank Gifford. He was playing really good with Betty White

[@CaptainCapital8]

5:39 - Wow!!!!!!

[@valentinr.dominguez2892]

It seems that "booties" didn't have the additional meaning that it has now.

[@jeff__w]

14:46 Has anyone ever heard the pronunciation of “sourdine” for _sardine_ aside from here?

[@RepentfollowJesus]

It was probably from his younger years and a different part of the US. We still have unusual words between the north east and the south and the west coast. My grandma was born in 1918 and called a van a panel wagon all her life.

[@jeff__w]

2:01 Travel to Europe by airplane was still novel enough in 1967 that Allen Ludden could ask the contestant how many times she had been to Europe.

[@davidsmock8235]

Are you kidding? MOST people in the west still have never been to Europe, including myself.

[@randigerber1926]

The male contest, Norm Farrell, reminds me of the later actor John Mahoney, both in looks and voice.

[@RepentfollowJesus]

I can see a little similarity. I loved John on Frasier.

[@piscessun1253]

Frank was so handsome, how old is he here!!!???

[@martinbrodie8507]

Frank was 37 years-old in 1967. I was 9, and watched Password religiously and had the home version I wore out with friends and cousins.

[@lyndahammond8883]

I like the male contestant, Norman Ferall. He's funny and a cutie!!

[@kathyhansen9546]

Not fair. Betty was giving lots more than one word clues in order for her partner to squeeze out “buzzer”:at the last second.

[@donaldleroy6502]

I was wondering what the hell was up with sour dean. It's pretty funny how bootee had a completely different meaning back then. If kick didn't work for punt I'm sure fourth down would have

so glad to be rid of Eva Gabor. Charming as she was, she just didn't have a clue when it came to PW

[@garfieldharrison510]

They didn't have much diversity on their television shows back then. I saw only one celebrity guest Sammy Davis Jr. I guess they didn't think we liked Games back then. America the great. Rest Easy Betty White.

[@verity3616]

I think the stewardess was cheating. Her partners were giving her buildable clues and she would guess, correctly, far too soon. Her expression was quite smug and showed little concentration too.
