[@moonlightray8493]

I love Joey Bishop's quick wit and dry humour... The way he said "excitement" with a total deadpan was hilarious, and "I was just talking to him - hi!" was such a brilliant quip, haha! He even had the announcer in stitches at the beginning. When the contestant got stuck on "ball", I would've said "Lucille..." For "polo", I'm surprised no one ever tried "Marco...", haha

[@danieldawg100]

Allen Ludden is not serious about telling all the contestants not to use hand gestures,they continue to use them and he continues to warn them.

[@christopherdunne7848]

It was early on, and the feelers were out as far as formatting. I remember another 1962 one (should be on YT) with Betsy Palmer. The password was “snore”, and Betsy went up to Allen’s ear and whispered something, probably “can I make the snoring noise as a clue?”

[@voicetube]

No guarantee how this would work, but for "Stagger" I might have said the word "Swagger" but in a little bit of a drunken way stretching out the "W"

[@kathymendoza9958]

Is it my imagination or is there a laugh track on this episode? I really enjoy Joey Bishop but each time he spoke there was canned laughter. Very typical for tv shows during this era. Also noticed that people in the audience were telling Abby to say "ice" at 12:37.

[@christopherdunne7848]

It’s quite possible that any laughter was “sweetened” as they say in the biz, making it louder than it really was. The pithy comments of Pat Sajak on Wheel of Fortune seem to get that treatment too.

[@joecaroselli5858]

I like Joey Bishop...I do, but the problem with most comedians (not all) is that they just try too hard to be funny, often at the expense of their playing partners. By being the "clown" they sometimes make their partners lose the game! If they do, by some chance, win the game, often they do poorly in the "Lightning Round" causing their partners to lose money! Their mugging and wasting time to get laughs sometimes messes up their partners. However, there are a few comics who get laughs, entertain the audience, and also play well for their partners.

Joe, the celebs don't care that contestants would like to win some money. Their egos are all they care about.

For the word "Mighty" I was thinking of "Mouse" too, but absolutely spoken with my arm a little in the air (and/or making a muscle) spoken with a deeper voice stretching out the "M" a little in a way that indicates you are talking about the second in a two word title, etc.

[@lynnturman8157]

no gestures

[@ambientrelaxingandhealingm7552]

@@lynnturman8157 I totally understand and agree that the RULES state "no gestures," but I can count on many hands the times that subtle gestures were either allowed without a word... or admonished with a little finger-wagging... but allowed to slip by. I think that's what would've happened… Ludden would have given that classic admonishing look and cautioned against gestures ... but at least as far as how long I've been watching this, I don't recall a time when a gesture was ACTUALLY grounds for disqualification on a winning answer :-)

[@ambientrelaxingandhealingm7552]

@@lynnturman8157 PS I would say that the gestures that are most admonished would be closer to DIRECT indications of an answer. Like maybe drawing a circle in the air or even making a circle with your hands for the word "circular." Or making a winding motion with your hands for the word "Winding." more fuzzy would be things like making a muscle for "Mighty" or indeed making a winding motion with your hands and saying the word "reptile" for snake.

[@eyextacy8412]

Hilarious episode. Smoking was widely accepted in this Era. Seems like everything is so disneyfied these days.

[@ChrisHansonCanada]

I played Abby's reaction at 11:18 in slow motion five times. Very amusing. The prominent part in Joey's hair looked weird. They should have allowed the players to guess as many words as possible in the lightning round instead of just five words because in the second lightning round they easily could have guessed five more words.

I'm a Joey fan in his natural setting, but wouldn't claim Joey "elevated" anything here. To the contrary. The purpose of this show is win a specific word contest, not to conduct nonstop standup and wisecracks, while losing every game.

[@alanhumphrey4198]

Abby Dalton and Peter Marshall of Hollywood Squares would have made a great couple (both with overbites)....

The word is 'Passion'. They go back and forth several times. Nobody mentions 'Lust' or 'Joy, but when he finally gives the clue 'Crime' the guy answers 'Passion'. Seems like an odd equation. Also: XD LOL @ 24:08-24:14 That's the way commercials were meant originally.

I think where they might've gotten thrown off with "Excellent" is that, to my understanding, it doesn't necessarily mean the top or pinnacle. Something can be excellent but not necessarily the top winner or the best. It means very good, certainly (and I suppose the clues should have stayed in that realm).

Right. Normally, if the word is contained within the password, then it is not allowed to be used. Maybe they added that rule later on? (I think at some point, opposites were not allowed to be used, either. That may have been Password Plus.)

Some folks don't fit this game setting well. Joey is just one of many who don't value the contestant's desire to win...they are too preoccupied doing their act.
