I remember one day my grandmother said as she got in the car, she needed some Geritol. My young cousin leaned over the front seat with a worried look on his face and asked her “Grandma, do you have “tired blood”? For those who don’t know that was part of the commercial years ago.
I guessed lifeguard #2 to be the real one by how quickly and correctly he answered Stillwell Ave as to where the Coney Island subway station is. Anyone from New York City could answer it, but to do it without taking a moment to remember meant going there a lot.
The Lifeguard in round 1 was a quick-pick; had the legs and over-all package to be a head Lifeguard, ''COLT STUDIOS', in California could have used him.
Wonder what the secret was with the marathon talker that her voice did not give out even with a few minutes off from time to time. I was hoping someone would have asked her this question. Polly is too much. I guess after all this time, it is not an act and she was how she really was. But she is still likable. Thanks for the video.
The one good thing about these being on you-tube is that I can skip over Polly Bergens questions which are going to be ludicrous at best. I don't understand how she lasted as long as she did on this show.
That was quite a bathing costume in round 1! XD
11:25: “How many prisoners are in your prison right now?” ... “I hope they all are!” ~~Perfect. :D
That's an old joke (only you substitute prisoners for people and prison for gaveyard)
@@kristabrewer9363 Then there's "How many people work here?" "About half."
@@karltiedemann9329 LOL, if I'm taking that right, that's funny
I love game #3, if #1 isn't an actress (i haven't watched the rest of it yet, watching it now), she should be!
That's exactly what I thought. I was convinced she was actually the talking champion because it seemed so natural coming from her.
Hy Gardner misspoke when he said Ft Hood was near Fayetteville, SC. FT Bragg is near by. Ft Hood is next to Killeen, Tx

Spoken by Ted Mack.
More specifically, it was iron-poor tired blood.
*In round Number 3, contestant #1 was a real hoot!*

That #1 marathon talker should have gotten into acting. She would have been good on a TV sitcom.
Wasn't she great?
She should have. It makes me wonder if maybe she did? She was fantastic.
Game #3: don’t invite this lady to your tea party: she will steal the show.
18:47 “I’m glad you finally got my kind of woman on the show!”
What's up with Kitty's hair piece !!!!????
I never heard tell of a TALKING marathon before (I had to go back and read it, I thought it said walking marathon)
Ladies and gentlemen, Hy Gardner was a personal friend of the former Chief somebody at San Quentin Prison.
#1 Marathon talker looks like Irene Dunne.
Polly's back from her gig in LAS VEGAS !!!!
Polly is such a ditz, right up there with the host oh what’s my line!
Hear is a fact. Country Music Legend, Merle Haggard once served time there.
The sexism of these old shows is stunning!
Who rings that bell !!!!????
Bud Collyer rings the bell.
Quasimodo
I LUV KITTY !
Was anybody else annoyed by the 3rd group of contestants
Why
Could any of those ladies beat John Moschitta, Jr. 1980's pitchman for Micro Machines?
***** What about the guy who was the pitchman for Federal Express. Was it the same guy
mh K Yes, it was.
Mr. Moschitta, I believe, went for speed, not duration.
Wow, prize money AND and an apothecary jar of Geritol.
Better than cigarettes!!🎈🎈
@@janeiwasduncan8463 d
at the end of Game 1, it sounded like Bud said a suppository jar of Geritol.
Man #2 in Game #1
Man #1 in Game #2
Lady #2 in Game #3
11:28 Line of the day.

No number 1 is not responsible for 25 million people ot even close
Why DON'T they get a years supply of Geritol !!!!????
Oh my god , Budd in ski , you can't say that !!!!
Jar of Geritol tablets !!!! OMG
Nice bathing suits. I was so busy looking elsewhere, I didn’t check for muscular legs. Sad 👵🏻
Contestant 1 yummy!!! Contestant 2 my next choice. Awesome bodies n tight swimsuits back in the day. 😘
the real lifeguard had great legs
I noticed immediately! I'm a leg and bicep girl! @@fanorama1
I get annoyed by Bud constantly interrupting Polly.
Polly often needs to be interrupted.
The one good thing about these being on you-tube is that I can skip over Polly Bergens questions which are going to be
ludicrous at best. I don't understand how she lasted as long as she did on this show.
She seemed almost indignant (!) when the poor contestant didn't know where the "azalea festival was held!
Hy was so rude to lifeguard no. 3. I would let him drown if he ever needed help.
