They still do, but you probably are constantly around the wrong people. The average European might look at Americans and see that ALL of the men wear what I call "The Uniform", where men dress exactly like little kids ALL of the time. Baseball cap, t shirt, and shorts. These "Average American Guys" not only see dressing in a way that shows that you care as bad, but they also have no respect toward women. The demented lies of Women's lib makes women see it as a badge of greatness to talk with a foul mouth and have as many "Sexual Conquests" as men do. They no longer demand respect from men, so they never get it.
If you're a Frank Gorshin fan you should check out his career on Hollywood squares very cool. Speaking of cool, I'm just old enough to remember those skinny ties.

Wonder if Darryl Meyer's wife gave him that daughter by Christmas! Had to laugh when he said that he was expecting a girl by then, as that technology wasn't around then.

I was married to Darell (second wife). The baby was a boy born January 3, 1967. I too wondered why he said expecting a girl.

Those nasty commercials about the Newlyweds game show make a mockery out of True Marriage.Not one decent husband and wife would ever participate in that show.
Allen's "Hi Doll" wasn't directed to Betty. It was to Betty's mother. I remember hearing Allen answer that question in an interview. As to why he stopped saying it, I have no idea.
It's called 'print through'. It's caused by the 2" video master being stored on a reel for decades. The exact spot on the tape where the bell is was recorded actually 'prints through' to the adjacent layer of tape on the reel (if stored long enough). Video tape of that era had magnetic oxide as a component; therefore sudden LOUD sounds would magnetize other magnetic oxide nearby simply because the tape layers were spooled next to each other. 'Print through' could be reduced somewhat back then if reels of recordings were stored on the shelf 'tails out'; meaning, on the righthand take-up real. This practice, however, was more common with audio-only masters, not video masters, Hope this helps!

The one thing that Allen Ludden did that I didn't like was during the "lightning round" when he keeps jumping in and telling them what they should do. The players know what to do and I think him jumping in like that would make it worse. Also, I always thought that in the "lightning rould" if they had to skip a word and go to the next one, when they got the last one had still had time left, they could go back to the one they skipped. I think they used to play it like that.
Ludden did not even ask him to do the laugh because PASSWORD before it moved to ABC, was on CBS and they did not want to plug ABC's BATMAN too much, never saying the name of the redhot two-night show.. By far, the best RIDDLER was GORSHIN.. JOHN ASTIN just did not cut it for me.

His Burt Lancaster impression was so spot on
At what point did he make the impression?
Wonderful !!
I have never seen Angie or Frank this young!
Rumor has it that they were both even younger, once.
Cant believe as many times that Rio Bravo (1959) has been on cable tv over the years that you didn't see her.
