I have really been enjoying these old Password episodes! I agree, people seemed so much more polite and cordial in that era.

[@julievanderleest]

Carol and Alan are my favorite duo on this show. I have also noticed how well manners were back then. People stood when someone else came in the room. I’ve never seen that before!

[@johnfd0210]

They are great together. I was trying to remember if he ever appeared on her variety show; I think he did.

[@danieldawg100]

[@jacquelinebell6201]

😂😂😂😂 This was the funniest show today! Carol is funny in all of hers. Her personality comes to the fore!

[@voicetube]

First I'll say here that this is one of my favorite episodes of password that I can remember (and who else has been binge watching these on KZbin like me over the past week!) Next I'll say that in the lightning round two clues in particular were genius on the part of Carol Burnett: " don't" for "do" (DEW) and Gibraltar for rock

[@iamdebmiller]

I am loving all these Password episodes! Thank you so much for compiling and sharing them. Very enjoyable.

[@michaelwascom62]

This the era when TV game shows had unparralled class! The hosts, the panelists, the "stars" and the contestants were intelligent, polite, courtly and a pleasure to watch!

[@Maclaren415]

I was 12 back then, it was oh so simple...love watching two of the greats from my time in their beginning. Thanks for posting.

[@jacquelinebell6201]

I was 3 and a half! Only discovered them last year!

[@randysills4418]

Carol Burnett is one of those people who should never die! What a wonderful human being she is!

[@nancyhowell4505]

Loved these games pairing Carol and Alan King as the best in comedy, fun, sportsmanship, and enjoyment for all concerned! I hope there may be another episode having them. 😂😆🤣🤣🤣🥰

[@daisymay9203]

Carols reaction when she gets the answer whilst the other contestant is guessing 😅 love her she’s such a goofall 🧡👑🧡

[@googleyeyes5122]

Ham? Stop the clock. Stop the clock! STOP THE CLOCK!! 😂

[@jacquelinebell6201]

😂😂😂 They were so loud lol. Hilarious!

[@Norfolk250]

Amazed how many Vicky Laurence expressions Carol showed in her face. WooooEEEeeeeerrrrrrrd!!!

[@voicetube]

That was genius!… With a one-word clue Alan King basically was saying "ukulele is to guitar as a guitar is to a banjo"

[@bubbagreensmith7174]

Carol is always a Hoot! Fun show brings back good memories thank you for posting this...

[@phyllisarringtion5354]

she's funny

[@lawsonj39]

One of the best of these. Great games. Ludicrous to see Alan King smoking right in the middle of the show.

[@keithhyttinen8275]

Criminal.

[@lesliebrickey8357]

I know, isn't it funny to see people smoking!

[@balconi89]

"Me" "Ham" LOL

[@ginniekinz5401]

what did she mean by ham though? I didn't really get that.

[@balconi89]

Calling someone a Ham used to be another way of calling someone goofy.

[@justjohnney]

From Webster's: "a showy performer; especially : an actor performing in an exaggerated theatrical style"

[@jmiller297]

Alan King definitely fit that bill... LOL.

[@randysills4418]

That was classic!!!

[@genkatqltr8517]

Alan King has pulled out amazing answers from his partner and from himself. It would be easy to imagine he could contact a person's mind! 😄👏👍

[@randysills4418]

John Koskinen is an American businessman and government official of Finnish descent. He is now 81 years old. He served under President Obama and that later one...

[@nancyhowell4505]

April 17, 1967, Carol Burnett and Alan King meet again in a challenge match! Hooray!

[@randysills4418]

Carol Burnett is so bright!

[@jacobrichardson1952]

Me... ham 😂😂😂

[@MissPerriwinkle]

mr king is a brilliant and fun guy...

[@isitfunthere1]

Thanks for all the wonderful episodes you have already shared, by the way!

[@TRIChuckles]

This makes me happy!

[@ericsamuelson5656]

Aired one day after my dad's 25th Birthday

[@johnfd0210]

Progress is fine, but I love that Alan King can give a woman a little kiss (in fun) and there isn't a mass protest.

[@NotSoGoodGamer18]

I finally found it, I found the ham!

[@Orange9098ItsOrangewithContent]

21:01 Me - Ham moment

[@verity3616]

This is one of the greatest moments in the history of the show. He's also the one who did the 'marvelous' - 'me' exchange in a previous episode.

[@Dharmon1]

@@verity3616 Actually, Jack Paar did the “marvelous…”me” exchange. This is Alan King in this episode.

[@verity3616]

@@Dharmon1 Oh heck, really? Now I have to find that episode again! It was an amazing exchange. Wasn't the contestant a psychology student or something like that too? Ha!

[@voicetube]

If that young dude knew about the painting "the Last Supper" I think if she had included "Last…" And if she needed to, add "Jesus" and "dinner"

[@googleyeyes5122]

8:10 watch my eyes and the clue speaker laughs while saying banjo. That's so funny. Normally the announcers are invisible and professional, but this one started laughing.

[@googleyeyes5122]

14:18 Stoop He did it again. 😂

[@voicetube]

Easy as a "Password armchair quarterback" but for "Pad" after "Launching," I might have said "Platform" (of course if I were actually there back when this was taped, I would've only been three years old, so I wouldn't have known the word platform yet :-)

[@Rose-in1nz]

Nostalgia. My favorite show from years ago.

[@MemphisTiger]

Interesting side note on that first boy on this episode. I did a google search for the name 'John Koskinen" and password and I think he is this man: www.wikiwand.com/en/John_Koskinen This person lived in Ashland, KY, like mentioned. If it is him, he went on to become the 48th Commissioner of the IRS (from 12-23-13 until 11-12-17). If this is the correct person, despite the fact he looks 12 here, he was actually 24 at the time this aired. Anyways, if this is the correct person, he is still alive (as of September 22, 2019) and is currently 80 years old.

[@LL-bl8hd]

Wow! Very accomplished man!

[@phyllisarringtion5354]

Carroll's 1st partner looks 12 years old

[@MemphisTiger]

That's what I just said! He looks 12...is married...and is clearly still having a voice change. Hard to think that same "boy" is now in his 70's...assuming he is still living.

[@matocarina]

john koskinen, born 39, had 25 in this video lol

[@voicetube]

I thought of perturb as at least a second clue (if not a first) for disturb.

[@marcvonborstel9940]

Glide, Spread, Ecstasy... Sounds like the X rated version of Password.

[@phyllisarringtion5354]

bahahaha

[@dparks3784]

This is back in the day when anyone could smoke anywhere.

[@MemphisTiger]

Ok...that John dude in the beginning is married? That boy looks like he is 12 and still going through puberty! Heck...his voice is still cracking! lol Hard to imagine that same boy, today, if he was still alive would be in his 70's.

[@techi3628]

I think this is the guy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Koskinen

[@randysills4418]

He is still alive...

[@shoe909]

oh...never mind. i watched the rest of the show and they explained his joke.

[@isitfunthere1]

Can you please find/post any of the episodes Lloyd Bridges was on in, I believe, 1966? My mum was his partner in one of his shows, and I've been looking for it for years, and it would mean the world to me -- and to her! -- to see it. Thanks for any help you can provide!

[@MemphisTiger]

If this helps any, Lloyd Bridges was only on the show during on week of appearances. These aired March 7-11 1966 and the other celebrity was Florence Henderson. I also did a search just now and was unable to find any clip of the time Lloyd Bridges was on. I did this search on 09-22-19.

[@voicetube]

I think even if the first clue (for "Mint") Carol might have made an "O" with her lips and breathed in that cool air kind of way… And said, maybe "Pepper……" And then sort of smacking the mouth/lips a little bit and breathing in with that cool air vibe.

[@marycook1644]

I thought also after a couple of clues that they could have said breath !? 🍬

[@voicetube]

@@marycook1644 Hey Mary, honestly, I don't remember now what word I was trying to help with a clue. What was the actual Password for this one?

C'mon Carol...let Alan win one game just so he won't be so grumpy.

[@techi3628]

Could this be Carol's first partner? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Koskinen

[@randysills4418]

Yes, that's him...

[@PV-pu5iu]

So strange to see Alan sitting there smoking.

[@howardkerr8174]

I think from watching this episode, and others when she was on, that Carroll Burnett would have been a pretty fair game show host. She does a very good job remembering and pronouncing the names of contestants. Her only drawback is she would be too "bouncey" to host a game show. I wonder if she ever had a skit on her show that depicted an overly enthusiastic game show host.

[@rayizard5687]

what's the "special prize?"

[@phyllisarringtion5354]

idk

[@MemphisTiger]

If I had to guess, the special prize was probably going to be an actual ham in honor of her hilarious response to "me" which I think she thought he said "meat." lol

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

I was thinking that too! Maybe Allen gave her a signed autograph or Mr Ham did, or extra cash.

[@mmjhcb]

"Lozenger?" Wow!

[@anthonyhubert8922]

All the pda, one doesnt see that too much anymore

[@felicitybrach5770]

Carol and Allan are so much fun together! I so enjoy them! I wish Allan hadn’t smoked during these episodes!

[@teresaloudon3009]

It's cracks me up that they could smoke on the game! Wow!

[@keithhyttinen8275]

Yes. Amazing. Back when Americans were actually free, before the smoking Nazis showed up.

[@bobrustigian4637]

Really? FYI, Alan King died from lung cancer.

[@jacquelinebell6201]

They could do it on all the shows in the 50s and early 60s it seems.

[@kristabrewer9363]

Alan King is getting on my last NERVE grrrr. I am so SICK of hearing him say, "Watch the eyes." Sheesh!!

[@elspethcoogan1499]

I wouldn’t have classed Part as being a form of the word Apartment 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@teeniebeenie8774]

she was frequently on with alan, did she have the hots for him? he cute

[@orbitalsatellite]

Classic moment! 😂

[@moonlightray8493]

10:16 I've watched so much What's My Line recently that I was genuinely expecting to hear "Arlene Francis", hahaha 21:03 So *that's* where the legendary "Me" "Ham" exchange is from!!

[@sandrakenslow9540]

What is Carol's clue for ecstasy??

[@bt10ant]

19:00 - panelist smoking (King). Won't see that on game shows anymore.

[@howardkerr8174]

Someone made the same comment on another show, you don't see it unless you really look, but quite a few celebrities smoked on this show. I saw Gary Moore when he paired with Carroll and Peter Lawford. And that was from watching about a dozen shows. What is more interesting is the clothing worn by contestants, especially on the night time shows....borders on formal.

[@acsintealecsandra9228]

I.ve been watching almost 100 episodes so far ... no fat people ...

[@shoe909]

What did Alan King say? Sounds like "Why don't you try some ice scraper?", but i doubt that was it.

[@phyllisarringtion5354]

why didn't you try sky scraper

[@diannekhan5199]

Seems strange to see the stars smoking while playing lol

[@kurtmorris454]

Alan's a great guy but I've gotten waaaay sick of his " watch the eyes". It was funny the first time he said it episodes ago but only because the first word that followed happened to be stare. It wasn't funny the 2nd time, the 7th time or the 83rd time. I could also do without his smoking while playing.

[@safepethaven]

Wow, the nicotine addict cannot even get through a twenty minute game show segment without lighting up a smoke in such close quarters with others; how rude, and unhealthy. The cigarette waring labels had already been on the packs for years by 1964.

[@GiftSparks]

Oh yeah. Folks used to smoke in front of children. In was insane.

[@safepethaven]

@@GiftSparks I know; all my relatives smoked and as a child, even in the car on long trips. I had lung/respiratory issues since birth and if I coughed, gagged or complained that I was having trouble breathing about the smoke in the closed car, I would be severely punished for being disrespectful.

[@GiftSparks]

@@safepethaven I am so sorry. It's so sad that people can't look beyond their stupid addictions for the needs of a CHILD. My father used to smoke at the dinner table all the time. When I would go to his office-- EVERYONE was smoking. It was just the thing to do.

[@safepethaven]

@@GiftSparks Yes, and even sadly well after the warnings placed on the packs after years of undeniable proof of harm and death. An addixt is an addict is an addict. And why I never started anything that would require "kicking" later on. Plus I never had the $ to spend or waste.

[@GiftSparks]

@@safepethaven Exactly.. This is a question that I tell young people to ask themselves-- "How will this make my life better?" It is a simple question- but few people ask themselves it before engaging in potentially harmful behavior. I never smoked or did drugs, because it would not make my life better. That being said, I do have drink every so often, but only in a social occasion. With the pandemic, I haven't had a drink in MONTHS.
