    After nearly 52 years since the airing of this episode, we thought the footage had been lost or was buried too deep in the archives of storage to be found, but someone did find it and THANK YOU !! A video history of my mother's event as a guest on this show HAS been saved and now I can watch it as if it was live My mother's portion (Donna Fultz) starts at about the 10 min 30 second portion of the clip. Thank you for finding this very special moment in her life for us to share with other family members and friends.

      It's great to hear from a relative of one of the contestants-- but I don't want to take credit where it's really not due. This was recorded off the Game Show Network reruns, so it's never been considered a lost show.
      In any event, I'd love to hear any memories your mother shared about being on the show.

    I started watching the WML episodes on this channel in chronological order a couple of years ago. Early on, when I revealed that I grew up in the NYC metro area, someone asked me if I ever knew anyone who appeared on WML as a challenger. My answer was no and since then, I have only come across one person that I knew for sure was related to someone I knew (a boy a year older than me in middle school).
    This episode connected me to someone I knew, but in a different way. When I was working as a stockbroker, one of my co-workers was a member of the famed Duveen family. Charles Boyer was playing Lord Duveen from that family in the play "Lord Pengo".
    What was not mentioned during this program was that the Duveen family was Jewish and lost all their European art holdings to the Nazis when they overran The Netherlands and Belgium. My friend and co-worker was one of the more fortunate ones. He survived the horrors of that time period while still in childhood, taking from it a number tattooed on his arm and life-altering memories of things he witnessed and people who never returned. He knew Anne Frank personally.

    Whenever I see someone sign in as "Mr. X", I think of the American foreign service officer, George Kennan. In 1947, he wrote an article in the magazine Foreign Affairs, under the byline "Mr. X", outlining what became the U.S. policy of containment of the Soviet Union.

    • @rtflone
      @rtflone 2 роки тому

      A policy that in many respects Kennan would reject a few short yrs later. His assessment of Mao's victory in the China civil war was pragmatic and spot on in retrospect, but further eroded his influence in US foreign policy. Kennan was accused of treason by Sen McCarthy in the anti communist hysteria for his view that Stalin was not interested in world domination. He was even investigated by FBI which horrified him. The more things change the more they don't..

    "Altoona" was a name that George Burns would use many times to get a laugh, just by saying it with the right timing. For example, some fetching and breathy-voiced young starlet would ask George naively, "Where's Vaudeville?" George would reply, "Just this side of Altoona."

    Last contestant first: The group which Paul Winter was fronting then was The Paul Winter Sextet, which he had formed while a student at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. (I wonder if he studied saxophone with Fred Hemke or Burl Lane while a student at NU?) The sextet had been signed by Columbia Records the previous year, after winning the 1961 Intercollegiate Jazz Festival.
    "Lord Pengo," by S.N. Behrman (suggested by Behrman's "The Days of Duveen"), had opened at the Royale Theatre the previous Monday, 19 November 1962, and closed on Saturday, 20 April 1963, after a run of only 175 performances. The production was staged by Vincent J. Donehue, with sets designed by Oliver Smith, costumes designed by Lucinda Ballard, and lighting designed by Jean Rosenthal. In the cast were Charles Boyer, Brian Bedford (only 27 years old then), Agnes Moorehead, Henry Daniell, Reynolds Evans, Cliff Hall, Laurie Main, Lee Richardson, Edmon Ryan, Betty Sinclair, and Ruth White. (Constance Carpenter later replaced Agnes Moorehead as Miss Swanson.)
    During 1962, Charles Boyer had also starred in two films ("The Four Horseman of the Apocalypse" and "Julia, du bist zauberhaft" (aka "Adorable Julia")) and in two teleplays on "The Dick Powell Theatre" ("The Prison" and "Days of Glory") - speaking of another recent Mystery Guest.....
    This is the third of Charles Boyer's four appearances as Mystery Guest on WML? (he never appeared as a guest panelist). His fourth and final appearance would be on Sunday, 17 November 1963. Because of a prominent murder in Dallas, WML? would be pre-empted the following Sunday.......

    It would have been interesting to hear J.T. Winter's story about his musical talents; instead, we hear Mr. Daily, once again, speaking for his guests and yapping away to the panel about what he knows about them. And this was a time when I would have enjoyed hearing a couple of more things from Mr. Winter himself in the short time that was allotted for his visit. Unfortunately, Mr Winter was not able to say no more than about 10 words. Does anyone know if Mr. Winter is still with us, and if so, what has evolved out of his musical interests? ~drs (08/13/24)

Martin was amazing at deducing his "line" from the way he dressed -- but perhaps there was also something about his name that rang a bell, even if subconsciously.

    Sometimes Dorothy killgallon can be somewhat annoying to watch, or to "engage with"--as a viewer, when she feels that she's "Right" but has been told "No" (in so many words from Mr. Daley), and then that causes her to get her knots in a short. Butt, she adds a wonderful, colorful piece to this entertainment tapestry of interesting people ebbing and flowing on the show's stage. And it is her varying attitudes that do contribute to some of the luster, to some of the repartee (Ohhh...,I get to say "repartee" here) that provides this show with its wonderful entertainment value. (And now I'm just thinking that perhaps Dorothy was never told "No!" as a child? Hum... We need to analyze this now. No we don't. We just need to enjoy the show.) (08/12/24)

  • @adamcoates2890
    @adamcoates2890 6 місяців тому

    For real John please be quiet for a change. The panel guessed the identity of this famous band leader immediately, providing all of this extra airtime to talk to him, and that was a great opportunity to let THE GUEST talk. It's this guy's chance to be on camera for 5 minutes and for the audience/his fans, to hear him talk! But poor John just can't keep his mouth shut. It's really annoying because he takes this moment as his own, to just hear himself talk! And the majority of the time his jokes fall flat because no one laughs, and he speaks over, and for, the guests instead of letting the guests speak for themselves! You can read the frustration on their faces sometimes. Thankfully there are legendary guests like Bette Davis and Sammy Davis Jr., for example, who will just talk right over John. For most celebrity guests, John crams in as many words as possible while shaking the celebrities hands at the end, so they have no ability to speak. Some of the legends will however turn the tables and speak over John the whole time. They watch the timer and get up when they want to and exit the stage. They know the people tune in to see them! It's funny because you can tell John just sits there like a tornado just came through, as if to say, what just happend? If this show was not in black and white, I bet John's face was bright red in some of these instances. The celebrity guests are always more interesting to hear speak, than John droning on and name dropping!! Haha haha
