It was an interesting experience imagining my parents at that age, and potentially sitting in their little apartment together, watching this program. Although maybe they found other ways to celebrate their anniversary! ;) I've always loved media from this era in American history, and I'm so glad these video classics have been uploaded for new generations to enjoy!

+Brooke Hanley In at least one interview, Shirley stated that she was warned if she would take the role of the mother in "The Partridge Family", it would typecast her and kill the success of her career. She took the part anyway and although the prediction proved correct, she had no regrets that she did it.
@secondstring5 жыл бұрын
peter henry - Part of the reason is because the role she won the award for is not what she is most known for. In Elmer Gantry, she played a very different role for her, that of a prostitute, and every other role she played had been a sweet, innocent babe. So knowing that the mystery guest had won an Academy Award would not readily evoke thoughts of that kind of role when thinking of Shirley. When she vied for the part in the movie, the director originally didn't even think she could play such a role.

I assumed that technicians did the kinescoping from a feed in the studio as it happened. Apparently CBS itself did the kinescope off the broadcast feed whether live or videotaped. Maybe this is a glitch or fault in the videotape itself not discovered until taping was all finished. Or something happend in the broadcast transmission.

19:17 - 20:45 This is what happened when videotape playback would be compromised by any number of factors in the early days of that technology. Think of a more complicated need to adjust the tracking on VCRs. It was not unusual to see a slide pop up on the air while technicians were fiddling with the video settings on the tape even as the audio played back cleanly. Networks would eventually come to making a dub if entire shows onto another reel of tape to play back on a separate machine - sometimes in a separate city - so that if the first one failed, a relatively clean switch could be made to the backup. All part of the growing pains of early television.

@@fmtalks1543 - I had no idea Shirley Jones won an Oscar. Thank you for your response. I hope Turner Classic Movies shows Elmer Gantry soon, but there are no guarantees. Or maybe I can find it on the internet somewhere. I'd really like to see the movie.

Admittedly, I like the authenticity of the disruption messages during the Mystery Guest round!

This was just a little over 3 years before Dorothy was 'silenced' for asking too many questions......

The White House dance band leader seemed so pleasant, not to mention intelligent and educated.

He said he studied at the Eastman School of Music and Columbia Univ, two of the finest schools in the country - or anywhere else, for that matter. White House military assignments traditionally are prestigious and usually only given to creme of the crop personnel. This guy fits the bill precisely.

Loved her in The Courtship of Eddie’s Father’ movie with Glenn Ford and Ronnie Howard. They were all superb actors.

Just to think, Bennett Cerf would’ve been about 120yrs old in 2019..

Shirley Jones was such a hottie. I had a crush on her when I was a kid. (and Dawn Wells and Gene Tierney and Hedy Lamar and Solidad Miranda and Raquel Welch and Ann Blythe and Virna Lisi and...). Her husband Jack Cassidy was a great actor and Shawn Cassidy had produced some great stuff. She will always be "Julie" to me. How could a cowboy have not been smitten by such a girlish beauty!

I've always thought that after the mystery guest they should have just talked with the star and not bring out another average person

The first time I saw Shirley was on the Partridge family, since I was only about 12 I had a huge crush on her. In fact I still think she and Donna Reed were the two finest 📺 moms of all time

They got close with the first guest guessing food and prison. Shirley Jones fooled them. That is unusual with this panel. Even her signature is pretty like she is. She is 89 years old now. What a spectacular life she has had. I have never heard anybody say one bad thing about Shirley either.

When Kilgallen asked about Marilyn Monroe impersonations, Marilyn was still alive. When this tape was broadcasted, Marilyn had been dead for a week.

I would guess that Dorothy had in mind Ernie Kovacs's widow, Edie Adams. Once she said that, I realized that the disguised voice could very well have been that of Edie Adams. When Abe Burrows guessed Celeste Holm, he was on a fruitful line of inquiry but didn't know it, as both women starred in Oklahoma!.

romeman01 I thought of Edie Adams immediately, probably since I saw her appearance as a mystery guest (which was well after Kovacs' death) previously, since I'm not being sequential in my viewing of WML videos.

I notice that, at the end of the show, Daly didn't thank Burrows for being on the panel.

there must be a long gag reel of bennett cerf getting tongue tied over his own porous palate of pontifications and puns.
