PASSWORD 1967-08-30 Eve Arden & Ray Bolger

[@sharletteedwards4081]

I absolutely love Eve Arden! I watch her on Our Miss Brooks regularly and the Mothers in law was one of my favorite shows also.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Right On! You obviously have excellent taste!

[@bryanspindle4455]

Always loved Eve Arden.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Me too !!

[@pikemeredith5604]

Can't get over how well & good Ray Bolger looks here for 1967. He played the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz in 1939. I believe he could still dance just as good by this time & for years after this. He was simply amazing. Sadly, we lost Ray in 1987, he certainly lived Judy Garland out & Eve Arden was wonderful too & was great in Grease.

[@mckavitt13]

She was great in everything!

[@timothymckann9415]

Ray Bolger also played Barnaby in Babes in Toyland 1961.

[@jubalcalif9100]

For a man almost in his mid-60s, Mr Bolger indeed looks very good! I remember in the late 70s or early 80s when he did TV commercials for Safeway for a line of products they came out with called "Scotch Buy". Quite a dancer, even then !!

[@dunlap4info]

I bet the girl partner he had in the orange dress was probably born after 1939 😂

~Eve💕Arden~ What a lovely, funny, classy lady. Loved her in the show, “Mother’s-In-Law” ❤️

[@lawsonj39]

Mothers-in-Law.

[@alanhumphrey4198]

@@lawsonj39 Correct: it is plural, not possessive...

[@jubalcalif9100]

I heartily concur ! She was wonderful in everything she did !

[@malcolmmarshall5946]

The Mothers in Law was a good show.

[@christophergraves6725]

The show was very funny.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Eve & Kaye made a great team!

[@donaldleroy6502]

I'm absolutely flabbergasted that copper plate counted as one word

[@regissuchma5764]

This was aired the day after my 2nd birthday

[@MrMatteNWk]

16:20 & 16:28 GREAT clues!

[@elizabethmarielunacordoba9956]

Jajaja 😂 when bolger went fast was so funny 😅😅😅

[@kevinbutler1126]

During his appearance on the show..Mr.Ludden warned Ray"Ray..please..no hand gestures".

[@voicetube]

For "Fin" I guess an obvious clue would be "Huckleberryyyyy" (of course they don't care about spelling as long as phonetically the contestant gets it right)

[@zebookworm8086]

Trying to figure out the ‘Ambassador to the Hot Fund’ 😂

[@Nancie680]

I kinda wish the commercials weren't cut out

[@kurtmorris454]

WHY????

[@Nancie680]

@@kurtmorris454 I love seeing the old commercials from the 60s and 70s

[@kurtmorris454]

@@Nancie680 most of them were cigarette adds. You know, the things that killed so many of these celebrities? I'm sure You can google them if you like. probably here on youtube

[@randilevson9547]

I agree. The commercials give a sense of where the world was at, during a particular time. A real indication of the culture of the time.

[@randilevson9547]

​​@@kurtmorris454 Cigarette ads on t.v. were stopped some time in the 1970's, as more and more medical evidence came to light about the severe health dangers of smoking cigarettes. Lung cancer, emphysema, respiratory problems, and lots more. Second-hand smoke was also found to be detrimental to health. The U.S. tobacco industry was very powerful, and lobbied hard to keep cigarette ads on t.v., and in print. They did all end up disappearing, finally.

[@adrianharies9849]

I wonder if these celebraties got paid to be on games shows.

[@jmiller297]

Yup! :-)

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

of course

[@howardkerr8174]

It's like any appearance on any show, they usually got paid per appearance and I seem to remember that back in the 60s there was an actor/actress that made the comment they were paid about $250 an appearance...or basic, "scale" for an actor. IOW, I don't think it made a difference how big a star you were, you got paid the same fee.

[@rockaway2k]

Adrian Haries Roughly $1000 for a week’s worth of these Password episodes.

[@jencastro]

Of course.

[@voicetube]

For "Appeal" I might have tried the word "Law" (at least far down the list). I think with enough prior clues, it could be the linchpin/key :-)

[@christophergraves6725]

Instead of Ray Bolger, the Heart Fund should have gotten Jack Haley to be their Good Will Ambassador.

[@voicetube]

At least for a 2nd clue for the word "Meant" I might have gone with "Menthol."

[@hifijohn]

"ive got" is two words

[@kurtmorris454]

yeah, it would never go in regular game play.

[@kurtmorris454]

some of the worst PW players I've ever seen. Ray Bolger got 1 word in the first lightning round and had to cheat to get that, and 3 in the second round after saying 2 of them back to back which I've never seen before.

[@aileen694]

OMG who or what is responsible for that excessive blasting slamming bell!? SO annoying and distracting from the game! 😡

[@jubalcalif9100]

Yes....way too loud !!

[@lawsonj39]

Ray sucked at the lightning round.

[@randilevson9547]

Yes he did. He could not think quickly enough, and he got impatient and flustered.
