I just adore Julie London, she is my favorite old jazz standard singer. Everytime I watch these old clips though I am impressed by the charm and charisma of Arlene Francis.
I'm also another one who agrees. Though this aired lint before me, it has this quality in how John and all the panellists comport themselves - funny, intelligent…. it’s like being at a make-believe ‘grown-ups’ party in your home, and even though you (the viewer) are ‘too young’, you can’t help but just want to listen.
Love Julie London for pulling the wool over their eyes so cunningly. They don’t like it when they’re fooled, they had no idea who she was & it drove them mad. Love these episodes when they are clueless......
Julie London was a very successful singer back in the 1950s early 60s maybe the late 40s she saying a lot of really good songs she had a big hit with the song called cry me a river leader covered by Joe Cocker in the med dogs and Englishmen and I think she was married to Jack Webb the guy that start on the TV show. Dragnet he was a very lucky man and our record collection we have a couple of her albums and yes she was a very good singer
@@davidarcudi230 No, I meant Julie, though I will freely admit that Dorothy Kilgallen was one of the most attractive and best dressed women on TV..and that I would not mind a piece of that either. There was a WML show where (not unusually) the cast was going out to a formal party afterwards. Dorothy had a gown on that must've had six crinolines under it, and she sat sidesaddle for that reason, smoking with a long cigarette holder...just savor that vision for a moment...
@@humdae6738 I wouldn’t say that at all but thin lips and no jaw did give her a disproportionate face. The cameras back then didn’t help any of them. All the men look older than their age and the greased hair looked very odd.
I love Arlene and Martin. Watching these shows makes me feel like I know them, and I find it oddly disconcerting that they are no longer with us. I miss them though I never knew them.
Julie London was a great pop singer and a fine actress as well. She cut many records for the Liberty label and started in the long-running Mark VII/Universal/NBC t.v. series "Emergency". Ms. London was one of the sultriest singers of all time. Rest in peace, Julie.
I used to have several of her records when I had a shoppe... I may still have 1 or 2 around here. Gotta get the record player working again do I can listen to them. She’s very beautiful!
@@horatiohornblower5626 I agree. Bennett and Dorothy seemed especially irritated. Bennett has made frequent comments about his dislike of rock-n-roll and some youth culture, and tonight you saw the way he practically sneered about “that jive talk.” Julie London seemed to delight in their reaction, though!
I’ve watched so many of these mystery guests now, and the ones who don’t disguise their voices well are guessed pretty quickly. They must do something to throw them off. Interesting how she used her real voice but still managed to fool them, and it did seem to irk the panel. But Julie came out the winner. 👍
Julie London - one of the smokiest and sexist female voices ever in popular music. I can pour myself a good stiff drink or glass of wine, a tall cold beer, or a good pipe load, put on my CD of "Julie is Her Name" Volumes 1 and 2, and I'm chillin for the night.
MisterMasterShafter1 That’s so true she’s know to say she has thimble full of a voice but oh what a thimble of a voice just dreamy !! And Beautiful to top it off !!
Thats because by that she was a socialite and no longer an entertainer in the industry. So, when asked if she'd done anything lately her answer would always be no no no.
no one ever sounded like her. Julie London had a way of really making any song that she sang (no matter if it was a song already strongly associated with another singer) sound as if it were written just for her to sing. Even though she has been noted as saying that she had a wee thimble of a voice and need to be close to the mic...I think she knew how to make what you heard sound like a powerhouse of a voice when either the whole song or just parts of it needed a big voice. But her delivery was not like a Judy, Ethel, Liza, or Etta...it still maintained that smokie and throaty softness from her not trying to sound big by being louder. Just as you stated, A FABULOUS SINGER and very unique. And I am also a huge Judy Garland fan as well. It is interesting that they recorded several of the same wonderful songs, but everything but the melody notes and the words is from two different (both amazingly wonderful) worlds.
I love how the panelists thought Julie London was black because of the way she spoke. Arlene mentioned Steppin Fetchit, Porgy and Bess was mentioned, the Apollo Theatre, Pearl Bailey, and Dorothy got really annoyed when Julie called her "man". "I'm a chick, not a man". Can you imagine if the panel was transplanted to today's stars? They'd be really annoyed with the mystery guests if they always spoke like that.
I could def see this translating into some SNL or MAD TV skit where the questions from the blindfolded panelists get exceedingly more and more racist as they become convinced they're taking to a black guest ("Have you ever been arrested for any drug related offenses" "Have you ever used the term Honky" "Have you ever done blaxploitation" yada yada)
For substantiation of this opinion those interested should download Julie sing- ing DAYS OF WINE & ROSES; MAD ABOUT THE BOY; & HERE COMES THAT RAINY DAY.
Thank you for sharing all these episodes with us. I can't get enough of WML. I may seem like newcomer at 40, but every episode is my treat. I'm quite possibly the least likely fan. Thank you again!
I wonder how old you must think I am if you think 40 makes you the least likely fan of WML! Believe it or not, about 20% of the viewership of these videos is under 35. Glad you're enjoying the shows. :)
+What's My Line? I feel silly after reading my post. I didn't think about your age or of your subscribers. I based my comment on my experience. One lovely friend and I watch the shows and she is it. I watch a show every morning. What I should have said is that I enjoy every WML episode. I Google the mystery guests, panelists, guest panelists and mystery guests I don't know (I've even googled one contestant). I apologize if I offended.
Elisa Ruiz Nothing offensive in the slightest! I just thought it was amusing that you considered 40 so young to be watching the program-- I'm only 43 myself. :)
+Jess4metoo You are correct. Her husband Bobby Troup played Dr. Joe Early (a takeoff on Joe Friday?) and her ex-husband Jack Webb launched the show as a spinoff from "Adam-12" (which was a spinoff from "Dragnet").
@@mezathome8162 And Streisand famously ripped the song a new one as the first track on her first album. It announced her arrival as a dynamic new album artist in a big way.
Lots to see in this episode. John Daly swatting at that pesky fly (12:16) was crazy; was he really a physical comedian beneath his sophisticated surface? His memory and control of the show (and panel) was amazing; check 17:57, where he reminds Dorothy of his exact words earlier in the interview. Sharp as a tack. Then there's Arlene's "You'e not listening, dad" (14:02) which stopped the show cold! LR
i have grown to love dorothy's wit and personality - she could be a handful, love it when she wants john to tell her why she couldn't buy a cow, "does he sell them directly to the cow?" i think she got john on that one. lol, daley wasn't having any of it tho, he knew dorothy was a penthouse new yorker and just couldn't picture her anywhere near a cow...
I won't take up too much space here, but I spent an afternoon and evening with Julie London in July, 1993. My father was a well-known Chicago radio host, and a good friend of Bobby Troup (Julie's husband). My dad and I were in Hollywood on other business, and we stopped in to see the famous couple. Fast-forward to the late evening, when Julie and I stood in one corner of the living room (close to the stereo) and played CD excerpts from Prokofiev's ballet "Romeo and Juliet", which she insisted we listen to. She loved the music and we stood there enraptured...me, mostly because I couldn't believe I was there in her presence. I mention this because in her "hip" jargon on this WML episode, she gives the impression that she doesn't "dig" Puccini, etc...which wasn't really true. LR
8:29 - «Если у вас клопы, вы должны поймать одного и залить ему в ухо кипяток». I never heard such an expression in my life and I failed to find it in dictionaries (though it was a quick look), all instances of it's ussage are linked to this particular exchange between Khrushchev and Nixon. If I was a translator, I would have been stunned speechless. It took me a few minutes to get what does it mean and I'm a native speaker. So, yes, it's a remarkable performance and demonstration of exceptional skill.
I just re-watched a favorite "Alfred Hitchcock Hour" episode (from early 1965) starring the beautiful Julie London, Peter Lawford and several other greats - entitled, "Crimson Witness." A very intriguing comedy/drama! Julie was a lovely singer who could well act besides. Cheers to her memory!
@@accomplice55 Didn't know that, but it "sounds" like him. Always puzzled me how she married both those guys. So opposite. Bet Bobbie was easier to live with.
Cluckin hysterical 😂 It was like watching Rebel With a Cause play out in real time, flustered by the Beatnik lingo. I could hear shades of James Dean, Dennis Hopper in Easy Rider, Joe Namath in CC & Company, to The Mod Squad. And the mooooving segment was udderly fun.🎉
panel was a little exposed as high brow new yorkers by miss london. as a school kid in the 1960's we said "man" all the time, i remember (just like dorothy) my mom scold me for saying "man" when talking to her. miss london would soon get married a few months after this show, she was known to be very reclusive, something you wouldn't guess by her profession or public persona.
She was originally married to the guy on dragnet, the lead guy, who really didn't want her to sing professionally and gave her all sorts of crap. So she divorced him and then later married Kevin who was really supportive. .
it was fresh and different from the noises and other trite special guest response's to the Panel's questions over the years. The frustration from the panel as the ''Jive talking'' Miss London made the whats my line Panel Uncomfortable and depreciating, as in previous condemnations of ''Rock and Roll''l in the fifties. The response from Dorothy I'm not a man definitive ! The guest did her thing man thanks for the historical observation of the birth of the 60's man!
My mother and I used to watch Emergency! It featured Robert Fuller Randolph Mantooth, Kevin Tige and my mother's favorite Julie London and "Troup" as my mother called him, Bobby Troup - Julie's real life 2nd husband. My mother didn't tell me Jack Webb was married to her first! Julie still had that sultry look and voice even as a senior.
I’d expect and hoped Dorothy to drop to the floor upon learning that he makes false teeth for cows!!!!! It would have been one of the most memorable moments in t.v. history!!!!
Absolutely. The Beatniks were reacting to the conformity of the Eisenhower era. They rejected values that they saw as inauthentic and stifling, choosing creating instead of consuming. They expressed themselves through music, especially jazz, and poetry. The Beat poets and writers like Ginsburg, Kerouac, Buroughs and Feringhetti were major talents in that era.
Well yeah, the mod scene grew from beatniks. Surfer culture existed in 1950s and bled into the early 1960s. There a lot of crossover, the decades don’t exist in a vacuum.
I like how John Daly mentions that the Russian official broadcaster was named "Romanov". I believe it was a reference to all the Romanovs that were killed by the Communists under Lenin's orders.
It's incredible, and a bit depressing, the level of expertise and poise of the era compared without our current time. (Aside from the fact that I can't imagine any show today featuring a reporter of Dorothy's brilliance AND an erudite book publisher!)
Arlene is wearing the beautiful heart-shaped diamond pendant given to her by her husband, Martin Gabel, on their first anniversary. She wore this necklace a lot on the show. It even started a heart-shaped diamond necklace fad in the 1950's. I read that in 1988, she was walking down a midtown Manhattan avenue when a mugger grabbed the heart, broke the chain, and ran off. She was so startled she didn't even yell out for help. So sad. Terri Johnson
@@baskervillebee6097 I read 3 mugger scenarios: AP News - walking down a midtown Manhattan avenue. Wikipedia - as she was leaving a NYC taxi. LA Times - walking down Lexington Ave. in NYC.
This was when there was a great deal of awareness of the Beat Generation or Beatniks. By the end of September, "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis" would make its debut on the small screen, featuring Bob Denver as Maynard G. Krebs, a hard core Beatnik down to the goatee, ratty clothes, bongo drums, patter and aversion to work. (WORK!)
Nixon's trip to the U.S.S.R., which is mentioned by Bennett Cerf as he introduces John Charles Daly, was the setting for the famous "Kitchen Debate", in which Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev debated Vice President Nixon in a model American kitchen at the American National Exhibition in Moscow. The Wikipedia article "Kitchen Debate" shows a photograph of Khrushchev with Nixon and several other men, including reporters. John Daly is seen standing on the left side of the photograph.
Julie London was a very popular singer in the 1960s and 1950s she had lotta big kids and she was a very good singer they were you shoot all of her records on 200 g vinyl which is really good vinyl and I did purchase her records that they were issued she had a really big hit called cry me a river and I think it was in a movie called the girl can’t help it I got a double check that. And James Mansfield was in that movie. The song cry me a river was done by Joe Cocker in the mad dogs and Englishmen in 1970. It was a really big hit for Joe Cocker but man she is just plain beautiful and she is very very sexy and if you check on her picture on her records she’s just plain awesome I like her a lot. I think she was married to Jack Webb Amanda with that was on the TV series dragnet. I don’t know if they were married or if they were just going out together on that oh man I’m glad I watched her❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
If anyone wants to see Julie in action, look at the movie "The Girl Can't Help It". It stars Jayne Mansfield (another really hot chick) but Julie makes a great appearance IN COLOR. The whole movie is an excellent "music video" of the most popular rock 'n roll stars of 1956.
OK, I don't know if this is fate or not, but I just saw a taped interview with Randolph Mantooth from a few short years ago when he was in Tucson, AZ for a for an event for fallen firefighters. He tours the country and does around 20 appearances a year.

Arlene was much too charming for Gabel.
Gabel is charming, also!
Gabel is a moron.
Gabel is a dork.
I think Mr Gabel must have qualities that made him a good husband. (That's not vulgar.) She was always complementary of him during introductions.
This show relaxes me. Never mind it has all these awesome famous people and time capsules.
And the famous people looked like their famous selves, not old antiques.

Especially if they thought she was in “Porgie and Bess”😂
Another Bennett pronunciation strikes!: "I'm thinking of a burro or a donkey" (he calls it a "bow-row"). I love this man!
+Jolar70
Good catch. Makes me wonder how Bennett described New York City's five bow-rows. For example, I was born in the bow-row of Queens.
I must say I am surprised and amused that John Daly picked up so much of the jive talk!
Never would have thunk it!
Julie is speaking beatnik and the panal does not understand it, dig it?
did you catch her (opposite her real-life husband Bobby Troup) Saturday nights, 8:00 on EMERGENCY?
She was originally married to the guy on dragnet, the lead guy, who really didn't want her to sing professionally and gave her all sorts of crap. So she divorced him and then later married Kevin who was really supportive. .
You'd think music lover Dorothy would have known.
@@latsnojokelee6434 who is Kevin? She was married to Jack Webb and then to Bobby troupe. Did she remarry again?
it was fresh and different from the noises and other trite special guest response's to the Panel's questions
over the years. The frustration from the panel as the ''Jive talking'' Miss London made the whats my line Panel Uncomfortable and depreciating, as in previous condemnations of ''Rock and Roll''l in the fifties.
The response from Dorothy I'm not a man definitive !
The guest did her thing man thanks for the historical observation of the birth of the 60's man!
Brilliant Bennett, Sultry Julie.
My mother and I used to watch Emergency! It featured Robert Fuller Randolph Mantooth, Kevin Tige and my mother's favorite Julie London and "Troup" as my mother called him, Bobby Troup - Julie's real life 2nd husband. My mother didn't tell me Jack Webb was married to her first!
Julie still had that sultry look and voice even as a senior.
I’d expect and hoped Dorothy to drop to the floor upon learning that he makes false teeth for cows!!!!! It would have been one of the most memorable moments in t.v. history!!!!
Julie London would be seen weekly on TV in the 70s as Nurse Dixie McCall on Emergency!
Great Show! Классная программа!
Wow, Rood Menter is just breathtaking. He should have been a model.
He somewhat resembles Charlton Heston
He’s still nice looking.
Julie proves how all that hip talk from the '60s: "yeah, man, I made that scene, dig?" -- already existed in the 1950s, man!
Absolutely. The Beatniks were reacting to the conformity of the Eisenhower era. They rejected values that they saw as inauthentic and stifling, choosing creating instead of consuming. They expressed themselves through music, especially jazz, and poetry. The Beat poets and writers like Ginsburg, Kerouac, Buroughs and Feringhetti were major talents in that era.
@@Tracymmo Yeah, 'groovy' was from the '50s too. It just came back later, as with Paul Simon 'feelin' groovy'.
Well yeah, the mod scene grew from beatniks. Surfer culture existed in 1950s and bled into the early 1960s. There a lot of crossover, the decades don’t exist in a vacuum.
@@Jocelyn_Jade Far out. I can dig it.
Maynard Krebs on "Dobie Gillis."
I like how John Daly mentions that the Russian official broadcaster was named "Romanov". I believe it was a reference to all the Romanovs that were killed by the Communists under Lenin's orders.
Dorothy getting miffed !
It's incredible, and a bit depressing, the level of expertise and poise of the era compared without our current time. (Aside from the fact that I can't imagine any show today featuring a reporter of Dorothy's brilliance AND an erudite book publisher!)
Arlene is wearing the beautiful heart-shaped diamond pendant given to her by her husband, Martin Gabel, on their first anniversary. She wore this necklace a lot on the show. It even started a heart-shaped diamond necklace fad in the 1950's. I read that in 1988, she was walking down a midtown Manhattan avenue when a mugger grabbed the heart, broke the chain, and ran off. She was so startled she didn't even yell out for help. So sad. Terri Johnson
True. She was elderly and entering a taxi.
@@baskervillebee6097 I read 3 mugger scenarios: AP News - walking down a midtown Manhattan avenue. Wikipedia - as she was leaving a NYC taxi. LA Times - walking down Lexington Ave. in NYC.

Ok
I'm a chick I'm not a man
Always learning from WML, I had no idea that type of lingo was spoken then.
This was when there was a great deal of awareness of the Beat Generation or Beatniks. By the end of September, "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis" would make its debut on the small screen, featuring Bob Denver as Maynard G. Krebs, a hard core Beatnik down to the goatee, ratty clothes, bongo drums, patter and aversion to work. (WORK!)
Nixon's trip to the U.S.S.R., which is mentioned by Bennett Cerf as he introduces John Charles Daly, was the setting for the famous "Kitchen Debate", in which Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev debated Vice President Nixon in a model American kitchen at the American National Exhibition in Moscow. The Wikipedia article "Kitchen Debate" shows a photograph of Khrushchev with Nixon and several other men, including reporters. John Daly is seen standing on the left side of the photograph.
What a gorgeous woman!
This is the second time that I know of where Julie London was the mystery guest and they didn't get her either time.
I thought Dorothy was very funny...I LIKED her Beatnik Chick with an attitude!
"...like...from PUCCINI, man!"
Julie London was sensational!
My God she was beautiful just stunning
Julie London was my first celebrity crush
My fave velvet voice!
She was too cool for these L7s, maaaan. They kept assuming she was black, because they were not hip to her lingo. I dug her answers, man.
Julie London was a very popular singer in the 1960s and 1950s she had lotta big kids and she was a very good singer they were you shoot all of her records on 200 g vinyl which is really good vinyl and I did purchase her records that they were issued she had a really big hit called cry me a river and I think it was in a movie called the girl can’t help it I got a double check that. And James Mansfield was in that movie. The song cry me a river was done by Joe Cocker in the mad dogs and Englishmen in 1970. It was a really big hit for Joe Cocker but man she is just plain beautiful and she is very very sexy and if you check on her picture on her records she’s just plain awesome I like her a lot. I think she was married to Jack Webb Amanda with that was on the TV series dragnet. I don’t know if they were married or if they were just going out together on that oh man I’m glad I watched her❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The first two contestants were great...very handsome , too
I just love her
Rood... What a cool name.
It is normally a surname of Dutch origin, so he was likely given the name of some ancestor (or perhaps his mother's maiden name)
Julie was stunningly beautiful
The singer with the sultry voice
Julie London was on emergency .
In the 1970.
If anyone wants to see Julie in action, look at the movie "The Girl Can't Help It". It stars Jayne Mansfield (another really hot chick) but Julie makes a great appearance IN COLOR. The whole movie is an excellent "music video" of the most popular rock 'n roll stars of 1956.
Jayne Mansfield looks like a cartoon next to the fabulous and naturally
sexy Julie London.!!!
The only really great Rock & Roll picture. And the only one in color.
Beautiful woman
So interesting the interpreter was
Julie London - They don't make women like this anymore!
That was far out man ‼️
John:"Chain of concatenation". Chain is redundant! Concatenation by itself is sufficient!
Handsome man that interpreter. ❤️
Love this show! When tv was good. Julie London was hot 🔥
OK, I don't know if this is fate or not, but I just saw a taped interview with Randolph Mantooth from a few short years ago when he was in Tucson, AZ for a for an event for fallen firefighters. He tours the country and does around 20 appearances a year.
First mention of the show now being videotaped. Kinescope era was ended.
I love Dorothy no matter what LOL
Dorothy Kilgallen , beautiful , gone too soon
Julie London was 32 years old here, born in September, 1926.
Nice voice disguise. Julie's is the sexiest voice of any woman.
Julie's voice was very sexy indeed, and so is Kim Novak's.
