What's My Line? - Raoul Levy; Julie London; Tony Randall [panel] (Apr 9, 1961)

MYSTERY GUEST: Raoul Levy; Julie London
PANEL: Dorothy Kilgallen, Tony Randall, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf

[@waynebrasler]

I met Julie's daughter at Universal Studios and asked her what her mother was really like and she said, "She loves being home, she reads a book a day, and she is a great mom."

[@noneomarxistactor2863]

[@tompaulcampbell]

Julie London was the mystery guest in 1957, 1959, and 1961 and stumped them every time!!!

[@rivaridge7211]

Julie London was absolutely lovely and was a wonderful singer! There are many of her recordings out here on KZbin and I listen to them often. Julie was once married to Jack Webb of "Dragnet" fame, though they would divorce in the mid-1950's. She and Jack would remain close (they had two children together) and in 1972, Jack (now an executive producer) offered Julie the role of Nurse Dixie McCall in his new show, "Emergency!" Jack also hired Julie's second husband, Bobby Troupe, who played Dr. Joe Early on the same show. RIP dear lady!

[@ecwiscott]

That was quite an ovation Julie London got when she entered.

[@mikejschin]

As a teenager later in the 1960s, I thought Brigitte Bardot was the most desirable woman in the world. In the 1990s, I stayed several times in a hotel in Cannes and was thrilled to find out that Brigitte used to stay there. Yes, my crush on her lasted all that time. By the way, the letter "B" is pronounced "bay" in French, and Brigitte was often called BB, or bay-bay. That is also the pronunciation of bébé, French for baby. Loosely speaking, this a French way of saying "babe". And she certainly was.

[@Frankcastlepunisher74]

[@mathewfullerton8577]

I am constantly amazed, especially when it's someone as intelligent as Tony Randall like it was on this episode, when a panelist says they can't tell if the answer was yes or no. If it's no, Mr. Daly indicates that it's "x" down and "x" to go.

[@salvatorecollura2692]

I’ve very often thought of that. After two decades plus all I’ve come to is that it was a combination of the bad acoustics and the tunnel vision that accompanies being on stage sometimes. I’d love to ask one of them that were any still living.

I was in school in the 1960s, and a teacher told us never to smoke, and said that if we did, it would be the equivalent of putting our heads in the oven. So I think some people were quite aware of the dangers in those days.

@Tally Koren. Another female with a great alto singing voice with the perfect pitch was the late Karen Carpenter. She had such a beautiful voice. Karen Carpenter was also an excellent 🥁 drummer!!

[@tomitstube]

julie london was way too cool for 1961.

[@d.jensen5153]

Julie London is a bit of an enigma. Sources indicate that she "was a withdrawn and introverted woman, and rarely granted media interviews." Lest one think this was just later in life, she was described by friends and family as "a shy child without much self-confidence." Yet she was a night club singer, a fashion model, a movie actress, and a television star. She appeared on WML four times and was even a pin-up girl in WWII. Those seem like strange vocations or predilections for a shy withdrawn introverted gal.

[@freeguy77]

Richard Nixon was another shy, introverted person, who forced himself to be in the public spotlight. So, it is not a contradiction of an introverted personality deliberately being in public for that person's job.

[@freeguy77]

I did not realize or know Julie was a real "pin up" girl, as she was only 17 when her pics were in Esquire magazine in its Nov. 1943 issue. She must have had her mom give permission to photograph and publish pics before.

Julie London had a fine bone structure and such a sultry voice. Cry me a River is a standard of smoky lounge sound.

[@freeguy77]

Sultry is another word to describe the lowest-level for women singers. Technically, it is contralto, with mezzo-soprano the most common middle-range, and soprano, the highest range.

[@nankerphelge3771]

@@freeguy77 Sultry is a description of delivery and style, not range. While it might be difficult for a soprano to be considered smokey, sexy, and experienced in the ways of the world, in other words: sultry, a mezzo-soprano can be sultry in every sense of the word.

[@freeguy77]

@@nankerphelge3771 "What does "experienced in the ways of the world" whatever that implies, have to do with sultry? Nothing at all. Incongruous. Her lower register corresponds to a deeper level of feeling, more than a mezzo-soprano could accomplish. It is not related to the style-delivery at all. It is the different feeling you get when hearing that deeper register from women. Sorry to disagree with your misdiagnosis.

Bobby Troup was Dr. Early on Emergency and Julie London's real-life husband. He also wrote the Nat King Cole hit song, Route 66.

[@jackkomisar458]

At 25:23, an announcer says, "Learn what you can do in the battle for freedom. Write for a free digest of the report of the President's Commission on National Goals." This may be related to a speech that President Kennedy gave to a joint session of Congress on May 25 on urgent national needs. It was billed as a kind of second State of the Union Address. Three days after the broadcast of this episode of What's my Line, on April 12, the Soviet Union sent the first man into space, Yuri Gagarin. The U.S. sent its first man, Alan Shepard, into space on May 5. But Kennedy wanted to set in motion a race that the United States could win. So in the May 25 speech (which dealt with many subjects), he said, "I believe this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth." Kennedy himself didn't get to see it, but his goal was achieved in July, 1969.

[@madelynkuehl1353]

[@loissimmons6558]

Miss Arnold declined to name her prediction for the Kentucky Derby which was held on May 6, 1961. The winning horse was Carry Back (the favorite), Johnny Sellers up, by 3/4 of a length. A popular horse because it usually won by coming from behind with dramatic stretch runs, he also won in the Preakness two weeks later. But he failed to win the Triple Crown when he finished 7th in the Belmont Stakes. It was later revealed that he had an injured ankle during the Belmont.

She did years later as nurse Dixie McCall in "Emergency" with husband (and songwriter of "Route 66") Bobby Troup (m. 1959-99 when he died). "Emergency" was produced by her ex-husband, Jack Webb (m. 1947-54), and also had Bobby as Dr. Joe Early. How's that for a triad of husband-wife-ex in a tv series! Age 74.

@@RonGerstein I've seen this happened in many episodes I've watched but it doesn't change the my question why. So women only get up for Mrs Roosevelt and that was the custom in those days?

First, as always seems to be case with the "semi-mystery" guests, the panel gets the "line", but the game continues for some reason. This is the third time I've seen Julie London on WML. I wonder why, given that I don't believe she was that big of a star back then.

"Cry Me a River" was a big hit in 1955, but she never really had another one. I have to agree with DisVids that her frequency on WML was a bit in excess of her general popularity.

Who the hell is this Raoul?!

He is the greatest French producer of his time. You could first GOOGLE a person before asking these trivial questions.

That was really painful to watch. Julie London was great though.
