DebbieFaubion What's interesting is that Bancroft didn't attend the next night's Oscars, to collect her award for best actress. Joan Crawford accepted it on her behalf.
***** And Crawford reportedly made a big show out of brushing past Bette Davis on her way to pick up the award (who had been nominated for "Baby Jane" and lost),
And she was only 35 years old when she played Mrs. Robinson. She has always seemed to have a great talent for playing older and more experienced, going back to her film debut in 1952, as lounge singer Lyn Lesley in "Don't Bother To Knock."
I think (other than the 1968-75 syndicated version) there have been a few attempts at doing "Line" or something close to it over the years. Wally Bruner and Larry Blyden were excellent hosts in the 1968-75 version. But the show became more like other daily daytime game shows and much less like the class of of the 1950-1967 era. I attribute much of that to the absence of John Daly.
He definitely was a bright and well-educated man, as well as being a loving and caring person. My only objection to Mr Daly's performance on "What's My Line" was that he talked too much and didn't allow his guests to interject very much about WHO they were, and/or what was entailed in their often unique jobs. He did the speaking for his quests way too much. He just needed to shut his mouth more. It was just that simple.
Anne Bancroft was just 32 in this episode, meaning that she was 35 or 36 when she did "The Graduate" playing a woman at least 10 years older. Either that or she gave birth to Katherine Ross when she was 14. An amazing performer.
As I've said in a couple of other comments, her film debut as lounge singer Lyn Lesley in the 1952 film "Don't Bother To Knock" (co-starring with Richard Widmark and Marilyn Monroe, among others) is equally astounding. She was only 20 years old when she made that film, but she acts and seems to look at least 10 years older and more experienced.
It should also be noted that Anne Bancroft portrayed a much older woman than the one she played in "The Graduate" when she had the title role in "Mother Courage and Her Children" on Broadway. The play takes place over a period of 12 years and she has three adult children when the play begins. At some point in the production, she has gray hair. Here is a picture of Miss Bancroft in stage makeup (or at least partially made up) for the role as she receives her Oscar for "The Miracle Worker" from Joan Crawford: www.joancrawfordbest.com/63bancroftmatt.htm
I was greatly surprised at how beautiful Barbara Eden had 'suddenly' become when I viewed her on UA-cam after not having seen her on tv since I was a 4 year old, after about 38 years! Suddenly she went from a lady who was having fun with her Master to a knock-out beauty whom I'm sure that many women had wished to look like!!! "Jeannie, my one wish is to look and talk like you!"
Outstanding actress Ms. Anne Bancroft. In the same category as Bette Davis, Olivia De Havilland & other great ones. Love her in "The Miracle Worker," excellent performance!!
But no matter what she does even here all I can think of her is describing meeting her husband Mel Brooks. Cause she may be the only person that could knock some sense into him. And something about it is classic. She’s elegance. However when did she stop aging. Because I’ve seen pictures of her and she was older and it looks like the only difference is her hair
What a lovely dress of Ms. Francis on this episode. Over the years of this show, some of the dress styles were pretty wacky by today's standards. But, among them were also some that would still be considered quite classic. What is entertaining of this show is that everyone dresses as if they were going to a formal ball, with the men wearing tuxedo's usually, and the women in formal gowns. They had to have been on loan as no-one could afford weekly changes of such designer outfits, costing hundreds or thousands even then.
I remember when, as a child in the 70s, the San Diego Zoo used to admit kids age 16 and under in for free! I only got in twice for free! Wish I would've asked my Mom to take us more times! I would have if I had known how expensive it would be in the future! Just last summer, I went with my sister and my four children, whom we had to pay admission for, even for our 4 year old, and it was expensive! Well, if it helps to take better care of the animals, it's for a good cause. But its not a non-profit, as the ape baby-sitter claims.
The first thing that I noticed after he signed in was that he was chewing gum, because contestants on WML? generally did not chew gum, or even have a throat lozenge in their mouths. I wonder if that was deliberately set up by the production staff, as a way of getting the questioning on to his product sooner - and, sure enough, Phyllis Newman asked that question right at the start. That much said, I found his gum-chewing to be visually annoying.
Ms Newman died shortly after your comment. The only panelists up to 1963 that I recall are still alive are Harry Belafonte, Dick Van Dyke, and Jane Fonda.
I love Anne Bancroft and I think she’s a very attractive lady. And, in my opinion, she became more and more attractive as she got older. That being said, it’s interesting she played the “older” woman in “The Graduate” because, if I have my story right, she and Dustin Hoffman were very near the same age.
Yes, she was only less than 6 years older than Dustin Hoffman. And I couldn't agree more that she only got more beautiful as she got older-- like Arlene Francis. :)
@@WhatsMyLineThat's exactly right You put words to it that I hadn't formed. She was great in comedy. To Be or not to Be witth Mel Brooks is hilarious and she's great in it.
I don't think I've seen a contestant chew gum on the show before. The panel was not shy in picking up on it. He might have thought that it would help the panel and not chew.
I wonder if this guy popped in a stick just before he walked out and no staff member had time to get him to spit it out. Who knows? Maybe he arrived with bad anxiety and the gum chewing helped get him on TV without meltdown.
***** You don't really chew chewing tobacco that way, though. :) Yeah, I was pretty surprised to see the gum chewing, too, given the high class gloss of this show. And it ended up controlling the nature of the entire questioning round due simply to the first question having been about the gum, even though it really had nothing to do with the guy's job at ALL!
soulierinvestments honestly, i was gonna rip him a new one in the comments. second time i've seen someone chew gum on the show. but the 1st instance, as soon as a panel member mentioned the gum, he spit it out. this guy didn't so i began to think that maybe he had another problem and the gum was either a coping mechanism or distraction.
Speaking of great parties -- any party at the home of Anne Bancroft and Mel Brooks must have been a hoot and a quarter. In 1963, she dated Mel, got engaged to Mel, and married Mel. What a smart girl. As to Katharine Hepburn loosing to Anne Bancroft the best actress Oscar in 1962, as to Anne Bancroft loosing the best actress Oscar to Katharine Hepburn in 1967 -- I think AMPAS got it exactly backward. Hepburn should have won best actress in 1962 for "Long Days Journey into Night" and Bancroft should have won best actress in 1967 for "The Graduate."
Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft: a more superficially mismatched couple I've never seen. But what an inspiring marriage they had! The one film they did together, "To Be Or Not Be", was quite good, especially given it was a remake of a classic 1942 film (remakes rarely work). She also appeared in his TV special, "An Audience with Mel Brooks", invited onstage near the end to reprise the duet they did in that film, a version of "Sweet Georgia Brown" sung entirely in Polish. :) They were just a delightful couple. She had to have been one smart cookie indeed to have had the taste to pick Mel, considering she could have snared any of the most attractive men in the world if she'd wanted to go that route. She was truly one of the most stunningly beautiful women I've ever seen, and *what* an actress.
She did a cameo in Brooks' "Silent Movie" (you get to see her cross her eyes opposite Marty Feldman). Phyllis Newman must be a big fan of Anne Bancroft - that's pretty good guesswork.
I don't know if you've ever seen Anne Bancroft's movie debut, in the 1952 20th Century-Fox film "Don't Bother To Knock," but I was astounded after watching the film to learn that she was only 20 years old when she played Lyn Lesley. And she played the role of a "been around, seen a lot of things" lounge singer quite well! (She had appeared on TV for a couple of years before that, doing drama anthologies, using the name Anne (or Anna or Ann) Marno; "Don't Bother To Knock" was her first credit as Anne Bancroft.)
I've seen a lot of comments, both here and on FB from people who noted that their enjoyment of the show diminished after November 8, 1965. As I am watching the shows in order, I haven't experienced that yet, but I can believe it. I'm seeing this stretch of shows where Phyllis Newman has taken Dorothy's place as good preparation for it. I like Phyllis Newman, btw.
soulierinvestments has speculated, and I think with good cause, that Phyllis Newman was being groomed to replace her around this time in case Dorothy didn't get it together. I'm glad she bounced back (well, bounced back to some extent, anyway): As much as I like Phyllis Newman (and I really do), and as much as Dorothy frequently annoys me (she really does), the contrast between her and the rest of the panel is a lot more interesting than having another charming, beautiful, witty female panelist. They already had Arlene for that.
I agree, Phyllis was beautiful and charming and becoming rather good at the game. But Dorothy was an institution. She was as much WML as John Charles Daly. Sure, she could be annoying, but more often she was endearing in her quest for the game and her vulnerability (at least on the show...I know she was a tiger in print) and when she died, there was a terrible void that was never replaced. We already know what the show is like without Dorothy. She, as we know, kept the show and the game from becoming a chat fest or pun palace (with all respect to the lovely Arlene and the witty and urbane Bennett). And Dorothy's challenges to John kept him from becoming just a headmaster.
Joe Postove Well said. I recall that when these were airing on GSN, I sort drifted off watching them regularly when they got to the shows after Dorothy had died. Not that it wasn't still a great show, but I do feel a bit of the magic was lost, which is remarkable for me to say since she used to annoy me fairly regularly!
They were laughing about Arlene's chickenpox, but it can be a severe, even life-threatening disease in adults. There was no vaccine for chickenpox until 1995, too late for Arlene and too late for me (though I got chickenpox as a kid).
Arlene back from chicken pox. Too bad that gown is not preserved in color. It looks stunning. And all her witty-iness is unscripted. I bet her parties were memorable. 1963 was a challenging year for Martin [Children From their Games goes belly up], and for Dorothy [recovering from illness associated with drug abuses], and Arlene [chicken pox . . . . and stay tuned -- ]
***** Forgive me if you know all this, just thought it worth mentioning: I've read that a small number of the last season's episodes were broadcast in both color and black & white. I don't think the color ones were preserved. You can see Arlene and Bennett in color on the syndicated version of the show, though. :-) John did a few things in color as well.
Reluctant Dragon The last year of WML was, in fact, broadcast in color, and recorded on videotape. However, the only surviving copies we know of are B&W kinescopes just like the rest of the series. There was *just* a discussion about this on another video, can't remember where, speculating as to whether any of the color videos have been preserved by private collectors. It sounds like the best we can hope for is that a copy of the very last episode may have been preserved, but even that is doubtful. I think it's all lost for good, another victim of network tape wiping.
***** Of course colorizing can be done. It's just that someone would have to spend the time and money to do it, so I'd say it's not going to happen. I honestly can't see the market for it. But colorizing has come a long way since the days of Ted Turner's abominations of the 1980s. I saw some colorizations done within the last few years, and I don't think I would have been able to tell the original film was B&W if I hadn't already known. It was that good. Anyhow, I don't think you were on that thread I was referring to, dylan. We were talking about the last year of videotaped, color shows, and wondering whether some private collector had it, because there had been a short clip of it (possibly) posted before. I'd refer you to the thread, but there's just no good way on YT or Google+ for me to find where it was, despite the fact that this thread was active as recently as YESTERDAY. I hate the new comments system so much. But the great comments you folks leave more than make up for that!
What's My Line? ***** I was going to suggest getting in touch with Ted, maybe he needs a hobby. ;-) I don't know if you saw the "I Love Lucy" Christmas show they had on CBS last year, but I thought the colorization was done quite well. They still have a clip of it here www.cbs.com/shows/holiday_central/video/lB4elRGG_LEWYx_Fo9NjkjOLsDNyUiDf/holiday-special-i-love-lucy/ (as a side note, I didn't realize CBS.com had full episodes of many of their classic series, including Lucy, Twilight Zone, etc!) But I'd have to agree, we're a ... niche market. Fun to dream, though. Thanks for the info on the color episodes. It's sad we'll probably never see them, but you never know. Sometimes a Monet turns up in somebody's granny's attic. :-)
Reluctant Dragon I generally point to the example of the complete version of Fritz Lang's Metropolis having been shockingly discovered in Argentina a few years back, after decades of folks searching for it and believing it to be lost forever. So yes, there's always hope on that level. The difference here is that I would expect that the network only had one copy of each show. Once they erased and reused the tapes (for short sighted economic reasons), the only copy was destroyed forever. So I'm not too optimistic. The best bet would be that a staff member squirreled away a copy illegally, I hope I'm wrong, but I really don't think we'll ever see a color episode of the CBS WML shows. I'm still very, very, very mad at CBS for issuing a *totally* unfair strike on my Vintage Comedy Vault channel. So CBS and I are no longer on speaking terms. ;)
Though Dorothy was going through a hard time she is still my favorite panelist and I think it is not fair for people to make remarks about her situation everyone goes through hard times. hers just happen to be harder than others she stills ends up pulling through and coming back. personally I don't see how people come up with the conclusion that she does drugs I get how she would be an alcoholic( it makes more sense if you know about her husband) and I think people say she is s drug-addicted because of how she died involving drugs, this is my personal opinion most people look past all the things she has accomplished to look at her faults. we all have faults but since she is not here it is easy to accuse without the whole story. RIP Dorothy, you are missed.
Dorothy Kilgallen was friendly with JFK of whom she was investigating his assination. She was found dead in a hotel room with her notes missing. Three letter organizations were not keen on any one questioning the official story of JFK's death.
She was murdered in her home..on the 3rd floor ( of 5 floors/ 13 000 sf) It is a travesty that her demise was not investigated. Anne Bancroft changed her name from an Italian one.
Worthy question, and my sentiment exactly, although I must confess that immediately after that thought, something much more dismal came to mind, as my mind does when attempting to lighten a heavy moment, by comparison: "Well, at least she doesn't take pleasure in, and have a power trip in butchering tiny, defenseless humans, as some abortionists undoubtedly do!" :(
@@deboraholsen2504 Abortions are a painful, private, personal matter and often necessary for various reasons. I respect a woman and her family enough to make their own decision. I suggest you stay out of it.
The very next night ANNE BANCROFT unexpectedly WON her one and only Oscar for THE MIRACLE WORKER. The Best Actress race of 1963 was one for the ages. The amazing line-up of nominees were: Miss Bancroft, Bette Davis, Katharine Hepburn, Geraldine Page and Lee Remick. Personally, I would have voted for Miss. Page for SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH (one of my all-time favorite films.) My close second choice would have been Miss. Davis for her terrifying performance in WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? Her co-star in that film JOAN CRAWFORD was furious at being snubbed for Best Actress that year and BEGGED all the nominees to allow her to accept the Oscar on their behalf if they were unable or UNwilling (in Miss. Hepburn's case) to attend. Miss. Bancroft was starring on Broadway to great acclaim in MOTHER COURAGE and didn't expect to win the Oscar so she remained in NYC. Sure enough, JOAN CRAWFORD had her moment in the sun, pushing her arch-rival BETTE DAVIS out of her way as she strode on-stage to great applause to accept the Oscar for ANNE BANCROFT. Meeeoooowwww!!!!
Anne Bancroft was a great talent. Sigh, what happened to Broadway and in general American theatre? (And, yes, that's the way that last word should actually be spelled). :)
@@martinwoyzeck2634 Yes, the American spelling is "theater". But, as with "glamour" and "honour", many Americans use the British spelling because they think it looks more classy.
Hey Tom did it ever cross your mind that you were about to go on a national TV show? Spit out you gum!! Arlene asks him if he had a throat problem.....maybe he just had a thinking problem...
Herb Klein? Nixon's future press secretary is referenced at the end of the first game..the San Diego Union editor! Wow, unexpected political reference.
When. sadly, it was necessary to find another lady for Dorothy's chair, WHY didnt they select the lovely, on the ball Miss Phyllis Newman? She was the first person I ever heard use the word " groovy" ( describing Mary Quant).
Anne Bancroft, in my opinion, and coming from a man's perspective, was one of the most beautiful women that graced "The Great Cinema Screen!" But Lauren Bacall, however, and again in my opinion, was THE absolutely most beautiful woman in the movies during the Golden Age of Hollywood!
I searched online and found a 1951 TV show "Lights Out." The episode was called "The Deal." free-classic-tv-shows.com/Sci-Fi-Horror/Lights-Out/1951-10-22-The-Deal/
stlmopoet Thank you. There was also at least one other mystery guest who worked together with Martin Gabel: Sean Connery (10/3/65). He worked with him on "Marnie".
***** Ah, yes! I completely forgot that Martin was in "Marnie", probably because it's not a Hitchcock film that I've wanted to rewatch much over the years (though it has its good points).
+Jeff Vaughn He also had an uncredited role in "Lord Love A Duck" (as the film producer), one of whose cast principals is previous Mystery Guest Tuesday Weld.
The second guest that sold sugar cut his own throat when he came out chewing that gum. It turns out he pretty well gave himself away even though he won the entire $50.00
I always want to smack gum chewers across the back of the head. I don't know why this irritates me so much. It isn't as if they were hurting anyone in any way besides looking aggressively moronic.
@@washoe4827 I don't think I'm easily irritated by most things. but I'm always at my most relaxed when visiting Singapore--where it is illegal to possess or use chewing gum.
I remember the hair helmet hairstyles women sported in the early 1960s, they were odd to say the least. The fashion styles for women weren't far behind on the goofy scale either.. lol
Can't trust celebrity challenge anymore since we found out Cerf cheated a couple episodes ago..danny kaye episode ..he read the board around his mask and shouted out alfred hitchcock that danny wrote on the board...it was actually kaye who was the mystery guest...he was CAUGHT !! Kaye set him up..I think everyone suspected Cerf of cheating..any way he could
Is there a reason why Phyllis Newman isn't listed as one of the guest panelists in the title listing of this episode? I know that you're generally very good about that, too. Fun episode - aside from Mr. Harkins' visually annoying gum-chewing.
And yet the syndicated version which resurrected WML soon after was not as good. Could we really rekindle the sophisticated fun of this show today really? I wonder.
1:00 Phyllis Newman may not have been the first girl to introduce John Daly -- but in the 1960s, she was definitely the first woman to sit in the first seat who was not Dorothy or Arlene. Again a hint that G-T might have been grooming her to replace Dorothy Kilgallen if she did not pull out of her problems. 1:17 -- Martin Gabel was not a smash in "Children From Their Games." A stinkeroo it was that did no one's reputations any good.
Phyllis was basically groomed to take Dorothy's place, Gil pretty much admitted. I just don't think Phyllis cared to actually have that obligation to the show.
I constantly read positive comments about Phyllis Newman that I have the feeling that I am the only one who can hardly stand her. Her voice and laugh are so annoying. She irritates me so much that even on the previous episode I got so aggressive when she said that she is the first woman to introduce John Daly, which is clearly not true, as both Dorothy and Arlene already had the chance to introduce him.
She was trying to peek through the space beside the mask and her nose. She often guessed the celebrity by cheating that way. Arlene often cheated the same way.
Manners dictate a man stands up when a woman walks into a room. Women can sit. Women however would extend their hand first when meeting somebody, not the man
Who are these people who keep disliking these videos? Shame on you! Too bad I can't dislike you, too. If you don't have anything nice to say, then get a life and go away.
I'm surprised the producers allowed the one guest (his occupation was selling sugar) to chew gum onset. It's tacky and unprofessional. I don't like watching people chew gum, as it partly reminds me of looking at cows in a field chewing their cud. And a lot of people can't just chew their gum quietly, discreetly; they need to draw attention to themselves by smacking their lips, or as with women, in particular, they literally love to "crack" their gum. But for me, that's like seeing and hearing fingernails going down a chalkboard! Totally disgusting behaviors!

I've seen this episode a few times and never realized how much Bennett talks about his friend Ted Giesel aka Dr. Susse.
That’s Seuss …
@@LANCSKID Thanks I knew it was wrong at the time I did this one, but I was focus on getting Giesel that I forgot about Seuss.
Gorgeous, and swimming in talent!
I'm surprised that Mr. Harkins the sugar guy was not told to spit out his gum before going on. That was bad form.
Must have been nerves.
It helped him give away his product to the panel.
Joe Postove he still won the full prize despite the clue
The first thing that I noticed after he signed in was that he was chewing gum, because contestants on WML? generally did not chew gum, or even have a throat lozenge in their mouths. I wonder if that was deliberately set up by the production staff, as a way of getting the questioning on to his product sooner - and, sure enough, Phyllis Newman asked that question right at the start.
That much said, I found his gum-chewing to be visually annoying.
Joe Postove;Yes I agree.I'm a business woman and I won't allow anyone to chew in my office.All the best!
Anne Bancroft was of course great, but I always had a "thing" for Phyllis Newman and thankfully she is still with us!
Ms Newman died shortly after your comment. The only panelists up to 1963 that I recall are still alive are Harry Belafonte, Dick Van Dyke, and Jane Fonda.
There are others. As the episodes go on, I try to list guest panelists up to that point who are still living in 2020.
Yeah only like 8% of the mystery guests are still alive, and all those are in the 60’s I think everyone in the 50s is gone.
I love Anne Bancroft and I think she’s a very attractive lady. And, in my opinion, she became more and more attractive as she got older. That being said, it’s interesting she played the “older” woman in “The Graduate” because, if I have my story right, she and Dustin Hoffman were very near the same age.
Yes, she was only less than 6 years older than Dustin Hoffman. And I couldn't agree more that she only got more beautiful as she got older-- like Arlene Francis. :)
What's My Line? ~ Thank you for responding. I totally agree about Arlene!!! And, she appears to have been just as beautiful on the inside as well.
@@WhatsMyLineThat's exactly right
You put words to it that I hadn't formed. She was great in comedy. To Be or not to Be witth Mel Brooks is hilarious and she's great in it.
Annie is Class, Grace, Elegance and Beauty personified.
Martin Gabel always looks to me as if he has just climbed out of the ventriloquist’s suitcase.
I don't think I've seen a contestant chew gum on the show before. The panel was not shy in picking up on it. He might have thought that it would help the panel and not chew.
I wonder if this guy popped in a stick just before he walked out and no staff member had time to get him to spit it out. Who knows? Maybe he arrived with bad anxiety and the gum chewing helped get him on TV without meltdown.
***** You don't really chew chewing tobacco that way, though. :)
Yeah, I was pretty surprised to see the gum chewing, too, given the high class gloss of this show. And it ended up controlling the nature of the entire questioning round due simply to the first question having been about the gum, even though it really had nothing to do with the guy's job at ALL!
***** Ha! Dylan do you think WML kept a spittoon for just such occasions?
soulierinvestments honestly, i was gonna rip him a new one in the comments. second time i've seen someone chew gum on the show. but the 1st instance, as soon as a panel member mentioned the gum, he spit it out. this guy didn't so i began to think that maybe he had another problem and the gum was either a coping mechanism or distraction.
That was the 60's Dylan, sex, drugs, and gum!
Speaking of great parties -- any party at the home of Anne Bancroft and Mel Brooks must have been a hoot and a quarter. In 1963, she dated Mel, got engaged to Mel, and married Mel. What a smart girl.
As to Katharine Hepburn loosing to Anne Bancroft the best actress Oscar in 1962, as to Anne Bancroft loosing the best actress Oscar to Katharine Hepburn in 1967 -- I think AMPAS got it exactly backward. Hepburn should have won best actress in 1962 for "Long Days Journey into Night" and Bancroft should have won best actress in 1967 for "The Graduate."
Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft: a more superficially mismatched couple I've never seen. But what an inspiring marriage they had!
The one film they did together, "To Be Or Not Be", was quite good, especially given it was a remake of a classic 1942 film (remakes rarely work). She also appeared in his TV special, "An Audience with Mel Brooks", invited onstage near the end to reprise the duet they did in that film, a version of "Sweet Georgia Brown" sung entirely in Polish. :)
They were just a delightful couple. She had to have been one smart cookie indeed to have had the taste to pick Mel, considering she could have snared any of the most attractive men in the world if she'd wanted to go that route. She was truly one of the most stunningly beautiful women I've ever seen, and *what* an actress.
She did a cameo in Brooks' "Silent Movie" (you get to see her cross her eyes opposite Marty Feldman).
Phyllis Newman must be a big fan of Anne Bancroft - that's pretty good guesswork.
I don't know if you've ever seen Anne Bancroft's movie debut, in the 1952 20th Century-Fox film "Don't Bother To Knock," but I was astounded after watching the film to learn that she was only 20 years old when she played Lyn Lesley. And she played the role of a "been around, seen a lot of things" lounge singer quite well! (She had appeared on TV for a couple of years before that, doing drama anthologies, using the name Anne (or Anna or Ann) Marno; "Don't Bother To Knock" was her first credit as Anne Bancroft.)
soulierinvestments They were all let loose, but you mean "losing, I think. 🤓
@soulierinvestments I completely agree.
I've seen a lot of comments, both here and on FB from people who noted that their enjoyment of the show diminished after November 8, 1965. As I am watching the shows in order, I haven't experienced that yet, but I can believe it. I'm seeing this stretch of shows where Phyllis Newman has taken Dorothy's place as good preparation for it. I like Phyllis Newman, btw.
Phyllis was good but it was not the same after Dorothy died. But she was a bit like Marmite - you either love it or hate it! I love it!! 🤪
When Dorothy was murdered, the show declined
Incredibly classy and beautiful woman.
Dorothy absent again. I wonder if the show ever considered asking her to leave, or perhaps Dorothy considered it herself.
soulierinvestments has speculated, and I think with good cause, that Phyllis Newman was being groomed to replace her around this time in case Dorothy didn't get it together. I'm glad she bounced back (well, bounced back to some extent, anyway): As much as I like Phyllis Newman (and I really do), and as much as Dorothy frequently annoys me (she really does), the contrast between her and the rest of the panel is a lot more interesting than having another charming, beautiful, witty female panelist. They already had Arlene for that.
I agree, Phyllis was beautiful and charming and becoming rather good at the game. But Dorothy was an institution. She was as much WML as John Charles Daly. Sure, she could be annoying, but more often she was endearing in her quest for the game and her vulnerability (at least on the show...I know she was a tiger in print) and when she died, there was a terrible void that was never replaced. We already know what the show is like without Dorothy. She, as we know, kept the show and the game from becoming a chat fest or pun palace (with all respect to the lovely Arlene and the witty and urbane Bennett). And Dorothy's challenges to John kept him from becoming just a headmaster.
Joe Postove Well said. I recall that when these were airing on GSN, I sort drifted off watching them regularly when they got to the shows after Dorothy had died. Not that it wasn't still a great show, but I do feel a bit of the magic was lost, which is remarkable for me to say since she used to annoy me fairly regularly!
What's My Line? What happened with Dorothy not getting what together? I’m not caught up on everything and I was curious about this
@gcjerryusc she was NOT homophobic..not in the least
Anne Bancroft = Anna Maria Italiano from the Bronx.
What's interesting is that her real name sounds like the stage name or alias, rather than her taken name for the theater and the cinema.
They were laughing about Arlene's chickenpox, but it can be a severe, even life-threatening disease in adults. There was no vaccine for chickenpox until 1995, too late for Arlene and too late for me (though I got chickenpox as a kid).
She was actually on twice in one year. She appeared in 1962 after the movie opened.
Arlene back from chicken pox. Too bad that gown is not preserved in color. It looks stunning. And all her witty-iness is unscripted. I bet her parties were memorable. 1963 was a challenging year for Martin [Children From their Games goes belly up], and for Dorothy [recovering from illness associated with drug abuses], and Arlene [chicken pox . . . . and stay tuned -- ]
***** Forgive me if you know all this, just thought it worth mentioning:
I've read that a small number of the last season's episodes were broadcast in both color and black & white. I don't think the color ones were preserved. You can see Arlene and Bennett in color on the syndicated version of the show, though. :-) John did a few things in color as well.
Reluctant Dragon The last year of WML was, in fact, broadcast in color, and recorded on videotape. However, the only surviving copies we know of are B&W kinescopes just like the rest of the series. There was *just* a discussion about this on another video, can't remember where, speculating as to whether any of the color videos have been preserved by private collectors. It sounds like the best we can hope for is that a copy of the very last episode may have been preserved, but even that is doubtful. I think it's all lost for good, another victim of network tape wiping.
***** Of course colorizing can be done. It's just that someone would have to spend the time and money to do it, so I'd say it's not going to happen. I honestly can't see the market for it. But colorizing has come a long way since the days of Ted Turner's abominations of the 1980s. I saw some colorizations done within the last few years, and I don't think I would have been able to tell the original film was B&W if I hadn't already known. It was that good.
Anyhow, I don't think you were on that thread I was referring to, dylan. We were talking about the last year of videotaped, color shows, and wondering whether some private collector had it, because there had been a short clip of it (possibly) posted before.
I'd refer you to the thread, but there's just no good way on YT or Google+ for me to find where it was, despite the fact that this thread was active as recently as YESTERDAY. I hate the new comments system so much. But the great comments you folks leave more than make up for that!
What's My Line? ***** I was going to suggest getting in touch with Ted, maybe he needs a hobby. ;-)
I don't know if you saw the "I Love Lucy" Christmas show they had on CBS last year, but I thought the colorization was done quite well. They still have a clip of it here www.cbs.com/shows/holiday_central/video/lB4elRGG_LEWYx_Fo9NjkjOLsDNyUiDf/holiday-special-i-love-lucy/ (as a side note, I didn't realize CBS.com had full episodes of many of their classic series, including Lucy, Twilight Zone, etc!)
But I'd have to agree, we're a ... niche market. Fun to dream, though.
Thanks for the info on the color episodes. It's sad we'll probably never see them, but you never know. Sometimes a Monet turns up in somebody's granny's attic. :-)
Reluctant Dragon I generally point to the example of the complete version of Fritz Lang's Metropolis having been shockingly discovered in Argentina a few years back, after decades of folks searching for it and believing it to be lost forever. So yes, there's always hope on that level.
The difference here is that I would expect that the network only had one copy of each show. Once they erased and reused the tapes (for short sighted economic reasons), the only copy was destroyed forever. So I'm not too optimistic. The best bet would be that a staff member squirreled away a copy illegally,
I hope I'm wrong, but I really don't think we'll ever see a color episode of the CBS WML shows.
I'm still very, very, very mad at CBS for issuing a *totally* unfair strike on my Vintage Comedy Vault channel. So CBS and I are no longer on speaking terms. ;)
Though Dorothy was going through a hard time she is still my favorite panelist and I think it is not fair for people to make remarks about her situation everyone goes through hard times. hers just happen to be harder than others she stills ends up pulling through and coming back. personally I don't see how people come up with the conclusion that she does drugs I get how she would be an alcoholic( it makes more sense if you know about her husband) and I think people say she is s drug-addicted because of how she died involving drugs, this is my personal opinion most people look past all the things she has accomplished to look at her faults. we all have faults but since she is not here it is easy to accuse without the whole story. RIP Dorothy, you are missed.
Dorothy Kilgallen was friendly with JFK of whom she was investigating his assination. She was found dead in a hotel room with her notes missing. Three letter organizations were not keen on any one questioning the official story of JFK's death.
She was murdered in her home..on the 3rd floor ( of 5 floors/ 13 000 sf)
It is a travesty that her demise was not investigated.
Anne Bancroft changed her name from an Italian one.
@@johnnyfivejmc Wrong. Died in her home.
She knew too much@@janetmarletto6667
I can't help but think of the SNL skit where Dan Akkroyd, as President Carter, says God could not forgive him for lusting after Phyllis Newman!
She was so gorgeous
I was beginning to think I was the only one who remembered that. Great bit.
What, may I ask, is "pleasurable" about butchering animals?
Worthy question, and my sentiment exactly, although I must confess that immediately after that thought, something much more dismal came to mind, as my mind does when attempting to lighten a heavy moment, by comparison: "Well, at least she doesn't take pleasure in, and have a power trip in butchering tiny, defenseless humans, as some abortionists undoubtedly do!" :(
@gcjerryusc perhaps the males perpetrating that act should have had their lives equally ruined.
ModMokkaMatti perhaps they did have their lives ruined too
Since viewing a slaughterhouse video in 2015, I've subsisted on beans, cheese, pasta and peanuts
@@deboraholsen2504 Abortions are a painful, private, personal matter and often necessary for various reasons. I respect a woman and her family enough to make their own decision. I suggest you stay out of it.
The very next night ANNE BANCROFT unexpectedly WON her one and only Oscar for THE MIRACLE WORKER. The Best Actress race of 1963 was one for the ages. The amazing line-up of nominees were: Miss Bancroft, Bette Davis, Katharine Hepburn, Geraldine Page and Lee Remick. Personally, I would have voted for Miss. Page for SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH (one of my all-time favorite films.) My close second choice would have been Miss. Davis for her terrifying performance in WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? Her co-star in that film JOAN CRAWFORD was furious at being snubbed for Best Actress that year and BEGGED all the nominees to allow her to accept the Oscar on their behalf if they were unable or UNwilling (in Miss. Hepburn's case) to attend. Miss. Bancroft was starring on Broadway to great acclaim in MOTHER COURAGE and didn't expect to win the Oscar so she remained in NYC. Sure enough, JOAN CRAWFORD had her moment in the sun, pushing her arch-rival BETTE DAVIS out of her way as she strode on-stage to great applause to accept the Oscar for ANNE BANCROFT. Meeeoooowwww!!!!
Anne Bancroft was a great talent. Sigh, what happened to Broadway and in general American theatre? (And, yes, that's the way that last word should actually be spelled). :)
Wrong! Theatre is the British spelling, and theater is the American spelling. So no, there is no one correct way
@@martinwoyzeck2634 Yes, the American spelling is "theater". But, as with "glamour" and "honour", many Americans use the British spelling because they think it looks more classy.
They were starring in Broadway AND doing this show! What professionals!
As classy as she was, she'd not have flinched if people called her a "beautiful broad". No snob was she. What a class act!
I forgot
Just once, i would have liked to have seen what happened if they had a mortician on.
They could have even asked the onetime MG Sal Mineo to let his parents come on. They sold caskets.
Hey Tom did it ever cross your mind that you were about to go on a national TV show? Spit out you gum!! Arlene asks him if he had a throat problem.....maybe he just had a thinking problem...
Maybe chewing the gum calmed his nerves.
he probably chewed gum cause he was nervous
@gcjerryusc no they do not :(
@gcjerryusc so do people making snide comments like this.
Ny feelings exactly..it also helped them figure out his line ...he helped them
Herb Klein? Nixon's future press secretary is referenced at the end of the first game..the San Diego Union editor! Wow, unexpected political reference.
When. sadly, it was necessary to find another lady for Dorothy's chair, WHY didnt they select the lovely, on the ball Miss Phyllis Newman? She was the first person I ever heard use the word " groovy" ( describing Mary Quant).
Anne Bancroft is a genius!
Man, she was a knockout. And classy. Wow.
What a beautiful looking women she was, a natural beauty.
Anne Bancroft, in my opinion, and coming from a man's perspective, was one of the most beautiful women that graced "The Great Cinema Screen!" But Lauren Bacall, however, and again in my opinion, was THE absolutely most beautiful woman in the movies during the Golden Age of Hollywood!
The San Diego Zoo is Fauna Animal Beautiful Living Ambrosia.

What was the name of the production Anne Bancroft and Martin Gabel worked on together?
Anyone here know?
I searched online and found a 1951 TV show "Lights Out." The episode was called "The Deal." free-classic-tv-shows.com/Sci-Fi-Horror/Lights-Out/1951-10-22-The-Deal/
stlmopoet Thank you.
There was also at least one other mystery guest who worked together with Martin Gabel: Sean Connery (10/3/65). He worked with him on "Marnie".
***** Ah, yes! I completely forgot that Martin was in "Marnie", probably because it's not a Hitchcock film that I've wanted to rewatch much over the years (though it has its good points).
***** Martin also worked on the film "Lady in Cement" with Frank Sinatra who was another WML participant.
+Jeff Vaughn He also had an uncredited role in "Lord Love A Duck" (as the film producer), one of whose cast principals is previous Mystery Guest Tuesday Weld.
B4 she ''became'' Mrs.Robinson
The second guest that sold sugar cut his own throat when he came out chewing that gum. It turns out he pretty well gave himself away even though he won the entire
$50.00
The sugar salesman looks like bossy the cow gnawing on cud.
I always want to smack gum chewers across the back of the head. I don't know why this irritates me so much. It isn't as if they were hurting anyone in any way besides looking aggressively moronic.
@@slaytonp you're easily irritated...?!
@@washoe4827 I don't think I'm easily irritated by most things. but I'm always at my most relaxed when visiting Singapore--where it is illegal to possess or use chewing gum.
I remember the hair helmet hairstyles women sported in the early 1960s, they were odd to say the least. The fashion styles for women weren't far behind on the goofy scale either.. lol
Can't trust celebrity challenge anymore since we found out Cerf cheated a couple episodes ago..danny kaye episode ..he read the board around his mask and shouted out alfred hitchcock that danny wrote on the board...it was actually kaye who was the mystery guest...he was CAUGHT !! Kaye set him up..I think everyone suspected Cerf of cheating..any way he could
Is there a reason why Phyllis Newman isn't listed as one of the guest panelists in the title listing of this episode? I know that you're generally very good about that, too.
Fun episode - aside from Mr. Harkins' visually annoying gum-chewing.
Just an oversight. I've corrected it-- thanks!
@@WhatsMyLine Then why not correct all of Robert Q. Lewis' titles as well?
BANCROFT ALWAYS KISSES CERF.
This show has to come back with the actors and actresses we have today
definately
Joseph Hernandez That would be nice.
Jade Shannon Definitely. Your friendly YT Professor 🤓
...but if the host says something like "Thank you for being on the show," the guests might say "No problem."!!
And yet the syndicated version which resurrected WML soon after was not as good. Could we really rekindle the sophisticated fun of this show today really? I wonder.
1:00 Phyllis Newman may not have been the first girl to introduce John Daly -- but in the 1960s, she was definitely the first woman to sit in the first seat who was not Dorothy or Arlene. Again a hint that G-T might have been grooming her to replace Dorothy Kilgallen if she did not pull out of her problems.
1:17 -- Martin Gabel was not a smash in "Children From Their Games." A stinkeroo it was that did no one's reputations any good.
Phyllis was basically groomed to take Dorothy's place, Gil pretty much admitted. I just don't think Phyllis cared to actually have that obligation to the show.
Three days, four performances, and bye, bye, Irwin Shaw and cast of "Children From Their Games."
Can't bear Phyllis
How did Mel Brooks get to know and marry Anne? Much love to them both tho! They had a great son, Max. He wrote World War Z!
Phyllis Newman always has a weird posture when she is blindfolded.
hopicard She looks like she's doing a Stevie Wonder impression.
It's because she's near sighted. Even though she's blindfolded it's her body's attempt to "see" so she tips her head
Oh my gosh....they should have told him to get rid of the gum....just because it looks horrible. And i bet he is mad he went on with it.
*_TAKES CARE OF BABY APES AT SAN DIEGO ZOO_*
*_SELLS SUGAR_*
*_BUTCHER_*
THE THINKING MAN'S MARILYN MONROE IS ANNE BANCROFT.
She was so cute...I wish she had tried harder to fool them
I hate the way Phyllis Newman always twists her head and “looks” up when wearing that mask. Very annoying.
I constantly read positive comments about Phyllis Newman that I have the feeling that I am the only one who can hardly stand her. Her voice and laugh are so annoying. She irritates me so much that even on the previous episode I got so aggressive when she said that she is the first woman to introduce John Daly, which is clearly not true, as both Dorothy and Arlene already had the chance to introduce him.
Her theatrics are impish, churlish and repulsive
three losers for the price of one...!
She was trying to peek through the space beside the mask and her nose. She often guessed the celebrity by cheating that way. Arlene often cheated the same way.
"Children From Their Games" was a major dud in the history of Martin Gabel. 6 performances and down went the curtain.
Has anyone else noticed how many female guests were single?
no
I think, back then, a lot of women quit their jobs when they got married.
Yes, ol’ Cerf noticed for sure!
I think it's rude of the women not to stand when shaking the guests hand.
Manners dictate a man stands up when a woman walks into a room. Women can sit. Women however would extend their hand first when meeting somebody, not the man
Mr Harkins should have swallowed his chewing gum before appearing before the cameras.
24:17
Who are these people who keep disliking these videos? Shame on you! Too bad I can't dislike you, too. If you don't have anything nice to say, then get a life and go away.
And the next day, Julian Lennon was born.
So, that’s alright, then. Completely irrelevant, but …
His gum chewing is distracting.
you're easily distracted...?!
MG was Mel Brooks' main squeeze.
Bennett is always deaf
I'm surprised the producers allowed the one guest (his occupation was selling sugar) to chew gum onset. It's tacky and unprofessional. I don't like watching people chew gum, as it partly reminds me of looking at cows in a field chewing their cud. And a lot of people can't just chew their gum quietly, discreetly; they need to draw attention to themselves by smacking their lips, or as with women, in particular, they literally love to "crack" their gum. But for me, that's like seeing and hearing fingernails going down a chalkboard! Totally disgusting behaviors!
Was that Mr. Hawkins or Harkins chomping on gum? How tacky.
This I think I've seen anyone chew gum on tv other than a movie.
Could we have that again … this time in English, please?
Sugar man; strikes me as a bit of a lout.
Ok. Y'all be having yourself a great day y'all
But it is OK to wolf-whistle and jeer at women?
Ny Mom always felt Phyllis Newman cheated the way she held her head such that she might see under the mask.
Just Imagine;catcalls from dudes in d audience today? I'd b so gauche;as It's just notAcustom anymore;put aside just how not cool it is. 4d Anti/PC-cops;it's not abt censoriousness,it's abt reasonable decorum. Mores evolve...hopefully.
Not to mention that most of the time the recipients of the whistles were not particularly attractive…as was the case of the butcher.
If only we could loosen up a bit in 2022. most people are offended by people just being people. Sad
