I loved when Jimmy and Gloria Stewart were guest celebrities on Password. I think they were on at least 3 times as I recall. And Jimmy is hilarious! I miss great stars that we used to have back in the 1950s and 60s.
Love Jimmy Stewart! Only he would describe the devil as 'hell'... 'you know, the fella'. Btw, madamerotten, his 'Burma' clue was referring to Burma Shave, you know, shaving cream, which makes 'lather'. And, of course, those fabulous ad signs along the road, the only one of which I can remember right now being: Way up North/Where the cold wind blowses/Eskimos kiss/Beneath their noses/Burma Shave. Thanx, BlackwoodCompany, for sharing!
It's amazing that so many episodes of "Password" and "To Tell the Truth" were saved on video tape while we only have kinescopes of "What's My Line?" and "I've Got a Secret". All were Mark Goodson/Bill Toddman shows.
This was a different day in history than what we are now accustomed. Isn't it obvious that the "liberation" movements have had a greater impact on social change than we are ready to admit? I remember those days, and there was good and bad in all of them. :)

Most WML's are available NO?
Aww, I so miss Jimmy Stewart; a true gentleman.
This truly made my day! Thank you so very much. Jimmy is the greatest.
She said "ownership" because she read it as "patent".
that was so funny!!!! thank you. Jimmy always cheers me up. :)
They weren't allowed to say words such as "hell" on television back then. That's why there was such a response when he said it.
OMG this is hilarious. Best Password episode ever.
Lol I think with rooster he thought the clue was "hen", not "hell", as in "the fella" with "the long tail". Kind of makes sense in a way, LOL
I'm taken back that a woman would be asked what her husband's occupation is. I guess the people assume that she must be a housewife.
That was ‘the norm’ back then.

You know, the fella........LOL!!
"ROOSTER?!"
Oh, Allen...
I like the sound effects better in these old ones. They seemed to use cheaper sounding effects in the remakes.
Lol I just saw a clip from 1962 where they DID discuss what the women did (Palamino Rancher!)
"Why did you say Burma?"
"I panicked. Besides, Myanmar is too hard to spell."
Wow, all those illegal clues and no buzzer.
+revinevan87 This show was infamous for giving a lot of flexibility during the bonus round, since it didn't hurt another contestant.
ROTF halarious hell... hell ... what?
Funny....at 0:25 he asks the woman "what does your husband do"...but asks the man what do YOU do."
She should of told Allen that he was a “Househusband”.
Good thing times have changed!
Except keep their house clean.
ROOSTER?!!
@Toltendo It was like that back. Just like womem were referred to as Mrs Steven Allen etc.
and now we know why gestures aren't allowed anymore
Allen Ludden said so at the end.
“The Fella” is TWO Words Jimmy! It shouldn’t of been allowed.
What the devil are you talking about?
What yr is this
3:25
Heh, her noise.
Gloria appears to have a slight moustache...
Why didn't he get buzzed on those two-word clues -- "The fella," "The manager," "Long tail"... all should be illegal clues! Wake up, Allen!!!!!!!!
wasn't she Old Rose in Titanic??
That's what I thought at first. But no, it's Jimmy Stewart's wife, Gloria
No, Gloris Stuart, the actress, was in Titanic. Gloria Stewart, Jimmy's wife was also an actress but not on Titanic.
Mahalo!
No.
The password is "LOL"
All Cheating and when I played with Paul Lynde was Much Funnier Trying to find it HELP
Two words!
I hate it when they put celebs on who don’t have a clue how to play.
Why was that considered as hysterical?
*LmFo*
How is this hysterical???????????
perhaps mr stewarts early Alzheimer?
Rather annoying
