Although this is 2 years late, the YT channel known as SHUDDER has a person who looks a whole lot like a younger version of Guy with a beard. ( he looks a bit like Guy in that Greek Based story that was made into a film in the early 60's) I don't know who that person is but, his small speaking part even sounded like Guy's voice!

Armando Catalano (aka Guy Williams) was always the Super Spaniard: Catalano is an Italian name betraying the man's origins: Catalonia, Spain. Between the 11th & 13th centuries, there was a huge MIGRATION of Catalonians (Spaniards) to Italy. Those who adopted the name "Catalano" was to ALWAYS remind themselves of their origins. Pity Armando's family never told him about his past! Pity that he called himself "Italian" when he had 0 Italy DNA: migrants back then stuck together when in a foreign country and typically married within their own culture. In this sense, Guy really had a lot more in common with Zorro than first thought. Your bit of trivia for today.

This seems like something the producers (or maybe even Allen) were willing to try in an effort to boost the show's ratings. I believe it was cancelled not long afterward (original run ended in 1967).

[@loissimmons6558]

It became known as "jumping the shark" after an episode of "Happy Days" with Fonzie literally doing that. These things rarely work. This one didn't. But if it gave Goodson-Todman the idea for "Family Feud", it was worth it.

[@howardkerr8174]

@@loissimmons6558 If you watch the show from beginning to end (I don't mean just this episode), but if you watch Password from its very beginning to its end you can see it was " tweaked " quite a bit over the years. In the beginning the show was kind of slow and clunky, but as it stayed on they managed to make it better and better...and then kind of screw it up. In my opinion, most game shows blow it when they try to be too folksy. The folksiness has a tendency to slow down the action.

[@loissimmons6558]

@@howardkerr8174 I know exactly what you mean. I am old enough to have watched Password when it was first run. It was one of my favorite game shows. Therefore, I also saw a lot of the rules changes. In the beginning a lot of the changes focused on how long the contestants could appear on the show. And of course like all game shows, once it had been around for a while, the host didn't have to spend so much time explaining the rules. The biggest change to keep the show from dragging that I can recall was when they no longer would play a word past five points. I had mixed feelings about that. When the people giving the clues kept giving the same clues over and over, it got frustrating for everyone. OTOH, sometimes it would be more interesting if they were able to keep coming up with new clue words, even if someone finally guessed it for only a point or two. And sometimes that point or two was the margin of victory. I don't know if the problem with Password was that it got "too folksy". Rather I think the problem was that it got too gimmicky in trying to keep the show fresh. In particular the all-celebrity version proved to be very unpopular. It was okay for a change of pace week under the old format, but it would appear that the viewers preferred the celebrity/non-celebrity pairing. They could see some of their favorite stars while also imagining themselves up there, competing for and possibly winning some money.

Why the rush?" and spent a full two minutes riffing on that. Ludden just wants to rush to the game and missed the opportunity.

Still, I wish he would have continued on in greater roles! He was a great actor, IMO, and would have had a better end than Lost in Space!

He had 0 charm, 0 charisma & 0 appeal there, just a dumb costume in a silly, unwatchable show!

He didn't get blacklisted: he was unhappy with the direction LIS took and was reluctant to do anything after that. He ended up being invited to Argentina in 1973 because Zorro was so popular there.

Sadly, the Argentinians were only interested in Zorro. Watch Lost in Space. Where is Diego/Zorro? Nowhere to be found. Even his million dollar watt smile is GONE. He has different teeth. Much like Marilyn Monroe, Guy/Armado repeatedly told people they were adoring someone who doesn't exist, a fictional character. In the end, he decided to portray himself as Don Diego, to keep the Argentinians happy. He indeed had it rough. It's good that they adored him, but deep down, he knew that he had to be f (a) k (e) to receive that adulation. Sad but true.
