@Karen Mallonee. 🍀❣️😀 I did, too, Karen!! This is my all time favorite episode, I'm sure❣️ We were all waiting for that "slam" of Jack Benny from Fred Allen, weren't we, and he didn't disappoint. Everyone had a blast that night and was on his/her "A" game! I couldn't believe the amazing number of voices Dennis used, as you said, to get Dorothy off his tail❣️ I'll definitely be revisiting this party again.🍀💜🍀
Such an honorable and delightful gentleman to watch, mister Dennis Day here. Genuine warmth flowing between him and Dorothy Kilgallen for a moment there. A privilege having this experience I dare say. Burned right into my memorybank.
I enjoyed Mlle. Germain -- nice personality, good sense of humor, fully fluent in English even if it is her second language. She went right along with everything -- even at the beginning with the wild guesses -- no problem with "She's is a hockey player!", raising her fist in a humorous sign of being victorious in hockey. Probably helped that she understood that such humor is part of what makes WML so entertaining and I'm guessing as a panelist on the francophone Canadian version of WML she probably says funny things along the same lines fairly often.
Yes I live in Montreal and she was (and still is) a respected actress of stage, film and television. She was also implicated in politics and news casting, wrote many books too. She died in 1994 aged 77.
I could immediately tell something was different about her, the way she bantered with John immediately after signing in. First she asks John if her spelling of her name was correct. Then she asks him if it matters whether she is single or married. What a set up! When John concedes not really, she comes back with "It matters to my husband!" Some of the non-celebrity challengers are comfortable. She was much more. She owned that stage the moment she spoke. And I found it interesting that Arlene Francis fairly quickly zeroed in on the correct answer, for they had very similar chemistry. While the other regular panelists in the U.S. version are professional, Arlene owns that stage more than any of the rest of them. No way WML should have ever replaced her, but if she had decided to leave, they could have done no better to replace her than with Mrs. Germain. However, she might not have wanted to come to NYC, as much of a promoter of the French language in Canada as she was. Even so, if I was Dorothy or Arlene, after seeing her it would have been quite a while before I would be comfortable taking even one week off in fear that WML might bring her down from Montreal to fill my seat. +ToddSF 94109 To your list of positive attributes, I will add that she was quite beautiful.

Check out Disney's delightful 1948 cartoon compilation "Melody Time". Dennis is the sole performer (doing various voices and singing, too) in the "Johnny Appleseed" segment. LR
Knew a woman who lived in Bailey's Harbor, Wisconsin back in the mid 70's. She had a Zenith 21 inch TV with a outdoor rotary antenna ,she picked up stations in Canada, Chicago all over the place,the Canadian version was a hoot. She learned to speak French from Quebec TV stations.
That "Dennis Day" is so gracious, so sweet and charming, so self-effacing, etc., etc,..as so many people on WML are, being of course from back in the day, that he might as well be a visitor from another planet, so little likely are you to find so admirable a person anywhere today...
1955 was the year Dennis Day's association with The Jack Benny Radio Program ended, with the cancellation of the program on CBS Radio. Day continued his association with The Jack Benny TV Program in varying regularity to the finale of the Benny program in 1965 and the end of the Benny specials in 1973. Day's radio program was "A Day in the Life of Dennis Day" (NBC 1946-1951). Fortunately a lot of it was recorded and preserved in OTRadio web sites. Great music and funny, too.
Fortunately a lot of the Jack Benny radio Program got recorded and preserved in OTRadio web sites. Day's singing voice and his impersonations are extraordinary, especially as preserved in the Benny aircheques 1939 to 1944, before he took leave to serve in the U S Navy. In 1965, he recorded "White Christmas" later retitled "Christmas is for the Family" that had two Jack Benny cameos in it. One of the best Christmas music albums I ever heard.
RE: The discussion of Jack Benny during the mystery guest sequence. Of course, the producers did not know they were working on a time limit here. However, it is sad that they did not get Benny on as a mystery guest during Fred Allen's tenure. The feud between them was an utter gimmick: they were good friends from way back.
Mrs. Germain, (quite known in Quebec in the 20th century), was just too at ease.... Miss Francis perhaps almost knew right way that something was fishy.
Fred was amazing even when no one got it...but I did! When he shakes hands with the first contestant he says "you haven't got a muff for the other hand...isn't that a sham"!
Not only did Jack Benny employ Dennis Day for decades, Mel Blanc was also a frequent contributor to Benny's radio and TV shows. It certainly stretched the casting possibilities with a relative small cast. There were no female counterparts in his cast over the years, however.
@@dovbarleib3256 @Teri Anne Beauchamp I didn't mean that there weren't any female cast members. I meant that there wasn't a female counterpart to Mel Blanc, i.e a woman like June Foray or Bea Benaderet who could do many different female (and children's) voices.
It might be from watching so much of this show but Nicole Germain gave some small hints with the way she was answering questions. And then she calls for a conference before John could say the words!
It would be a good idea , I think , if the WML videos would be numbered 1-2-3- etc... so we could watch them all without missing one from the beginning of them to the last one episodes. Thank you .
Considering how good Dennis Day was at doing voices, I was amazed anyone figured it out! Fred actually considered Dennis to join his show, but Jack Benny got to him first. Jack always had tenors as his singing talent because their voices fit the child-like characters they would play.
Well, this one was the Quebecois version of WML, Chacun son métier(To Each His Job), shown on Radio-Canada(Francophone CBC) from 1954-59. Anglophones watching the English-language CBC got to see the standard US version alongside their own legendary panel show, Front Page Challenge.
It is likely that the worms that contestant Alice Crisafulli raises are common earthworms. If so, then they are animals: "Oligochaeta is a subclass of animals in the phylum Annelida, which is made up of many types of aquatic and terrestrial worms, including all of the various earthworms." These would be classic "night crawlers" or "red wigglers" if they are to be used for fishing.
First game -- one Christmas Eve, if memory serves, a member of the Puerto Rico WML panel sat in on the New York panel for a while, so the second game was not completely unusual in its 5 members.
Dennis Day, Excellent mimic too. His sister-in-law is Ann Blyth. On radio he wouldn't have to hire any actors, he would do all the voices, which someone had a show like that years ago.
Apparently he didn't exercise any self-control. Shouldn't he have gone to phony baloney confession for that, or was he scared of the pædo priest in the box?

What's My Line? 1 year ago This wasn't so much of an issue on radio. Jeff Vaughn 1 year ago +What's My Line? Haha! So I guess he had a face made for radio? What's My Line? 1 year ago In a very real way, actually, yes-- since the character he played for JAck Benny and on his own series was that of a naive, dumb kid. He didn't look the part by 1950-- he was too old. By the end of the Benny series in 1965, it was almost laughable. It's a testament to his talent that the character still worked at all, because seeing a middle aged man pretend to be, essentially, a teenager, was quite jarring. Likewise, Don Wilson wasn't anywhere as overweight as he was supposed to be during the TV years, and it made the fat jokes feel, to me, even cheaper than they were on radio (possibly my least favorite aspect of the Benny radio/TV series, which I'm a gigantic fan of, are the fat jokes about Don Wilson.)

If John Daly would have looked on his cell phone and touch the big "W" and typed in worm, he would have found the answer. ToddSF 94109 4 months ago +mh K -- Invertebrates is a huge category of animals that includes anything that doesn't have a backbone. An insect is as much an invertebrate as an earthworm. Jellyfish, lobsters, oysters, snails are more examples of invertebrate. In fact, any given animal is either a vertebrate (mammals, fish, reptiles, amphibians and birds) or an Invertebrate (everything else). There are many different phyla of worms, too. An earthworm is an annelid as opposed to an insect -- annelids are the phylum that includes "segmented worms". ToddSF 94109 4 months ago The first contestant is the only one I've seen so far to bring a muff with her as part of her ensemble. Jill Gordon 5 months ago "Goodnight, you man who doesn't know what a worm is." I think John needed a biology book What's My Line? 5 months ago John was remarkably bad at biology, yes-- though this is the only time he really got called out in a major way for one his many, many, MANY errors on biological terms! ToddSF 94109 4 months ago (edited) +Jill Gordon -- If John had stopped talking and hadn't interjected that line about a worm being in the "larva" family at the very end of the show, I'd have defended him because, until then, he hadn't said anything wrong. Ye gods, though, the larva family? The man was truly ignorant when it came to biology. To borrow a phrase from Dorothy Parker, when it came to biology, John Daly's ignorance was a veritable Empire State Building of ignorance. If nothing else, you had to admire it for its size. Of course, many know that an earthworm is an annelid (ringed or segmented worm) rather than an insect, and that a larva is one of the stages of insect life that precedes, for many insects, its final, six-legged adult stage. I also have to criticize Arlene who suggested a worm might be in the snake family. Ye gods, Miss Francis! Rich Maz 1 month ago +Jill Gordon let he who has never made an error involving a life form cast the 1st stone..............the panelists are equally as guilty for not questioning it & I have seen other segments where type of life forms questioned were actually incorrect--in this case John was wrong Johan Bengtsson 9 months ago The Canadian version of WML was called "Chacun son métier" and ran from 1954 to 1959.

Was that last guy Kenny Baker? joed596 6 months ago good episode Jeffrey Slott 1 year ago Obviously, Ms. Francis got the answer about the first contestant from the audience. It's bad enough when the obnoxiously macho male jerks in the audience start their childish whistling whenever an attractive female contestant comes on. It's too bad that there couldn't have been more of a separation between the audience and the panel, or perhaps a warning given to the rabble beforehand that anyone caught shouting out the answer would be thrown out of the theater. Or just doing away with an audience altogether ;) What's My Line? 1 year ago What's My Line without the audience really wouldn't be the same. There's an energy that comes from having the live audience that would have been lost. Honestly, I think If even one segment in 100 was actually spoiled by the audience, I'd be surprised. Jeffrey Slott 1 year ago +What's My Line? Based on what? The more episodes I see on this channel, the less convinced I am that the panelists do not have some kind of "help". Bennett Cerf especially gets down to the real nitty gritty too many times and too quickly, especially when it comes to "guessing" the identities of the "mystery guests". Perhaps the audience does add something sometimes, but for me their "participation" takes all the fun out of watching the game. Which is a shame because otherwise I would enjoy these episodes a lot more. What's My Line? 1 year ago +Jeffrey Slott The show is what the show is. Adam Robinson 7 months ago Really? This show would've been fairly dull without the audience. If What's My Line were made today they'd have to continue with a live audience. There's no secret that laughs bring on more laughs. ToddSF 94109 4 months ago +Jeffrey Slott -- Bennett Cerf was remarkably well informed as to which celebrities were in town when the shows were on. So was Dorothy Kilgallen, who wrote a daily newspaper column, "The Toast of Broadway", and, like Bennett, she was quite aware of who was in town or appearing in nightclubs or hotel venues or who was currently starring in Broadway plays and musicals or who had a movie recently released or about to be released. Arlene was good at those things, too. In fact, it was their job as panelists to be aware of who was doing what entertainment-wise in New York, and who was visiting. As to the audience, if all the whistling for an attractive mystery guest sometimes led the panel to conclude the guess was a woman, they had to confirm it with a question and sometimes certain male celebrities got whistles, too, resulting in a "No" if the panel asked if the guest were a woman. Besides, if the whistling did indicate a woman mystery guest, that eliminated about 50% of the possibilities. If the show were done without an audience, it would be quite dull. I note that every other game show ever made to this very day has a live audience present, even "Jeopardy!". I have to wonder, if you're not enjoying these classic episodes of WML, why do you continue to watch them? ToddSF 94109 4 months ago +Adam Robinson -- I agree. They'd have a live audience if they were doing WML nowadays. All current game shows on the tube have a live studio audience -- they'd would definitely be dull if they were conducted with no audience reaction. In fact, I can't think of a single TV game show I've ever seen in my nearly 63 years of existence that hasn't had a studio audience. George Alexander 1 year ago I just read Mr. Day died of ALS.

He did a great Ronald Coleman, and Winston Churchill, a lot of others I'm blanking on at the moment. bigred997 1 year ago it was so good to see john get his come uppance when he asked the first guest if she was married. that really should not be "germaine". What's My Line? 1 year ago Yes, good catch-- it was refreshingly modern of the first contestant to question John on why he was asking if she was married ("Does it make a lot of difference very much?"). I think he gave a terrible, rambling answer-- much simpler, and less convoluted, would have been to simply say that they asked about a female contestant's marital status so they would know whether to refer to her as Miss or Mrs.!
At 16:40, John Charles Daly equates bacteria with "non-filterable viruses." This phrase dates back to the experiments of Dmitri Ivanovsky in 1892 and Martinus Beijerinck in 1898. At the time, all infectious agents were called "viruses", but Ivanovsky and Beijerinck showed that some of these agents could pass through a porcelain filter, the "filterable viruses", and some could not, the "non-filterable viruses." The term "filterable viruses" includes what we now call simply "viruses", while the term "non-filterable viruses" includes what we now call "bacteria", which are too big to pass through such a filter.
Bacteria are at least an order of magnitude larger than viruses. Bacteria can be seen with an optical microscope; viruses are too small to be seen by optical microscope. Bacteria were first seen by (optical) microscope by Leeuwenhoek in the 17th Century. Viruses were “seen” by electron microscope in the 20th Century. To the extent the terms filterable and no filter able may have been used, the definitions given are inverted
@@stevekru6518 "THE FILTERABLE VIRUSES by CHARLES E. SIMON, School of Hygiene and Public Health, Johns Hopkins University. The term 'filterable viruses' was introduced in the late nineties of the preceding [nineteenth] century, to denote a group of disease producing agents, which seemed to differ from other forms of living matter in their ability to pass through earthenware filters having a pore diameter smaller than the smallest bacteria then known." Physiological Reviews Vol. 3, No. 4, 1923
Whenever I hear Dennis Day now, I only think of this: "The Lord is good to me, and so I thank the Lord for giving me the things I need: the sun and rain and an appleseed. Yes, He's been good to me!"
This first panelist is probably someone who would be known by sight in a more television-focused era. (Like, post-70s.) Also, I believe Mrs. Crisafulli died in 2000. (But I'm not at all positive.)
I liked Nicole Germain. Very charming. Wish they had brought her on as a guest panelist for an episode. Would have been fun. I kept getting a vibe tho that Fred Allen didn't like her. He seemed kind of grumpy when she joined the panel for the game.
That was just Fred being Fred. His humor was black or white....you either liked it or you didn't. I've tried many times to try and see what the people in the late 50s saw in him, but I constantly fail. Fred Allen turns me off completely.
+John Carper (Responding to your question posted on the prior version.) The mystery guest was Dennis Day. His relationship to Kenny Baker was that he replaced Baker as the tenor vocalist on Jack Benny's radio show in 1939.
Re: the second contestant, I don't think the panel actually asked if the animal was a bug at any point, but they thought they did. Daly didn't do anything wrong!
Celebrities like the first contestant who are very lively and flamboyant kind of give too much of a clue to start out the panel. I mean they will already know she is in the arts. Jeepers.
I also noticed that she wore it more than once. It looks quite lovely nonetheless. And I so wish I could see the episodes in color for nothing else than the outfits (usually a gown) worn by the female panelists, many of the female mystery guests and some of the female challengers.
As Peggy Draper said, in this case John's "admonition" about how much time was left wasn't to get them to speed things up but to fill some time since there wouldn't be time for another guest.
Dorothy was unbelievably competitive. She knew full well the guest was Dennis Day but decided to drag things out to ensure she would guess him. Also, in other episodes notice if the guest or mystery guest got down to 9 down and one to go. If it came to Dorothy, she would always say "I pass". The only thing that frustrated her more than not guessing the person would be to be the one who's question it was when the panel lost the game.
@@galileocan She dragged things out when she knew there wasn't time for a fourth guess and therefore there was time to fill. She was helping Daly that way.
Worms are not insects..they're invertebrate annelids, or segmented backboneless creatures with no exoskeletons. Some do have spines, but not in the mammalian sense..more akin to dendritic "switchboards" communicating neuron receiving 'messages', but not entwined with any backbones. Mammalian spines tend to be neuron senders and receivers, entwined into bony vertebrates.
Several countries had their own version of the show. Only one episode of the UK version has been preserved, and one episode of the French language Canadian version. Both are available on UA-cam. In later years of the US WML, at least two contestants were panelists on the show from other countries.
Wikipedia lists 12 countries other than the U.S. that have had versions of "What's My Line": Australia, Brazil, Canada (French), Denmark, Germany, Indonesia, Lithuania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, and Venezuela.
I wonder what Mrs. Germaine said to Bennett when she did the walk in front of the panel. He seemed struck. For some reason, I think that Arlene was furious with Dorothy’s dragging at the end with the questioning of the mystery guest.
Jihn Daly, during Dorothy's questioning of Dennis Day, informs the panel that there are "only three and a half minutes left" which is code for them that they need to fill in the time. Therefore, Dorothy starts drawing out her questions. It's all about the timing of the show.
The episode with the Brazilian lady who was the John-Daly of Brazil was hilarious, especially Cerf reaction! There the show was called "Adivinhe o que ele Faz?" This means "guess what he does". If I translate this in French, "Devinez ce qu'il fait", it does not as sound, in French, as good as "Chacun son métier". But I am not a Brazilian..... Here is the clip ua-cam.com/video/GkLjebyizyk/v-deo.html but Mrs. Germain was not there. The young lady speaks in accented Canadian French while the others speak in "International French". Also the older lady Mrs. Jannette Bertrand, 32 years old on this clip, is still alive and kicking at 99. (here at 99, unbelievable mental acuity : ua-cam.com/video/F2CkuuQtie8/v-deo.html and she still has a "young" 80 years old boyfriend!!!). Watching What's my line and also watching Cerf replacing Daly, and doing poorly, one realizes the perfect mix the American show had. It was a better show than the Canadian one. It makes us nostalgic of a more civilized, proper and in the non-political sense of the word, if that is possible, more conservative America.
John gave him a qualified answer by bascally suggesting it is kept in a domicile of some sort, and is not wild in behavior. Also, Arlene said insect, and insects specifically have six legs, she only said bug after it was over. A bug is usually any arthropod, worms are annelids, though worms are usually also considered bugs.
you have to remember, answers are yes or no. a no would mean it is not raised by humans. it would be wild. the correct answer, if you didnt have the yes/no limit, would be, not like a pet cat or dog, more like a farm animal. but not wild.
Such class. Mr, Mrs or Miss. Sir or Mam. Men standing when a lady approaches. Good handwriting. We need more of this today.
we certainly do.
Dennis Day did a wonderful job, changing his voice every time. Really loved him on the Jack Benny Program. Loved seeing him here!😊

Check out Disney's delightful 1948 cartoon compilation "Melody Time". Dennis is the sole performer (doing various voices and singing, too) in the "Johnny Appleseed" segment. LR
First one was obvious by her outgoing attitude
Arlene and Dorothy always looked so elegant.

This was by far the best panel. Steve Allen rounded it out.
Fred.
Steve was shy that day, to the point of being invisible..and not likely anywhere in the building.
Nice to see Dennis Day!
That "Dennis Day" is so gracious, so sweet and charming, so self-effacing, etc., etc,..as so many people on WML are, being of course from back in the day, that he might as well be a visitor from another planet, so little likely are you to find so admirable a person anywhere today...
Dennis Day sang "Home Is The Sailor" at Errol Flynn's funeral just over 4 and a half years later.
Nicole Germain had definite charisma. The panel was getting a little nervous that one of them might be getting a pink slip.
I just ADORED Dennis Day, just loved him, and he was sooo funny & talented!!!❤
Dennis Day is Awesome!!!
I enjoyed the Canadian WML panellist. And Fred Allen was funny!
Wow, 1955 has been hysterical so far
Dorothy had to have known Dennis Day right away. I recognized his old man voice right away!
All these people are no longer with us...but I like to think they'd get a kick out of knowing the show is still being watched 70 years later.
Dennis was terrific!
Great episode of WML. Top 10.
Wow-Denis Day was great with accents!
“A bissel is a sweeper”. Arlene was always so on the ball.

Dennis Day was great fun 🥇
1955 was the year Dennis Day's association with The Jack Benny Radio Program ended, with the cancellation of the program on CBS Radio. Day continued his association with The Jack Benny TV Program in varying regularity to the finale of the Benny program in 1965 and the end of the Benny specials in 1973. Day's radio program was "A Day in the Life of Dennis Day" (NBC 1946-1951). Fortunately a lot of it was recorded and preserved in OTRadio web sites. Great music and funny, too.
Fortunately a lot of the Jack Benny radio Program got recorded and preserved in OTRadio web sites. Day's singing voice and his impersonations are extraordinary, especially as preserved in the Benny aircheques 1939 to 1944, before he took leave to serve in the U S Navy.
In 1965, he recorded "White Christmas" later retitled "Christmas is for the Family" that had two Jack Benny cameos in it. One of the best Christmas music albums I ever heard.
I grew up with this Christmas Album. I still can sing every song
I loved that crack Fred made about the legendary concert and radio singer Jessica Dragonette!
RE: The discussion of Jack Benny during the mystery guest sequence. Of course, the producers did not know they were working on a time limit here. However, it is sad that they did not get Benny on as a mystery guest during Fred Allen's tenure. The feud between them was an utter gimmick: they were good friends from way back.
soulierinvestments i agree, it would have been a real hoot. Their made up feud was one of my favorite parts of their radio shows
@@amberola1ba2
Dennis Day impersonated both Rochester and Mel Blanc who was doing his own voice impersonation with Jack Benny in the Si, Sy, Sue skits.
Mrs. Germain, (quite known in Quebec in the 20th century), was just too at ease.... Miss Francis perhaps almost knew right way that something was fishy.
Fred was amazing even when no one got it...but I did! When he shakes hands with the first contestant he says "you haven't got a muff for the other hand...isn't that a sham"!
Not only did Jack Benny employ Dennis Day for decades, Mel Blanc was also a frequent contributor to Benny's radio and TV shows. It certainly stretched the casting possibilities with a relative small cast. There were no female counterparts in his cast over the years, however.
what about Mary Livingston (sp?)
Mary Livingstone, I presume.
@@dovbarleib3256 @Teri Anne Beauchamp I didn't mean that there weren't any female cast members. I meant that there wasn't a female counterpart to Mel Blanc, i.e a woman like June Foray or Bea Benaderet who could do many different female (and children's) voices.
It was just genuinely sweet the way Dorothy revealed it was Dennis.
truly entertaining guy
"MY SHOES!"
Truly one of the most random answers to a panelist's question. Even Dorothy was caught totally off guard by it.
It might be from watching so much of this show but Nicole Germain gave some small hints with the way she was answering questions. And then she calls for a conference before John could say the words!
I thought the same thing... she answered the questions in a manner that revealed a level of insight into the show that is not typically shown.
It would be a good idea , I think , if the WML videos would be numbered 1-2-3- etc... so we could watch them all without missing one from the beginning of them to the last one episodes. Thank you .
If you search for a year, it shows them all in order. That's how I've been watching them.
Considering how good Dennis Day was at doing voices, I was amazed anyone figured it out! Fred actually considered Dennis to join his show, but Jack Benny got to him first. Jack always had tenors as his singing talent because their voices fit the child-like characters they would play.
How many countries had a version of WML? Goodson-Toddman must have really cleaned up in this business!
Well, this one was the Quebecois version of WML, Chacun son métier(To Each His Job), shown on Radio-Canada(Francophone CBC) from 1954-59. Anglophones watching the English-language CBC got to see the standard US version alongside their own legendary panel show, Front Page Challenge.
It is likely that the worms that contestant Alice Crisafulli raises are common earthworms. If so, then they are animals: "Oligochaeta is a subclass of animals in the phylum Annelida, which is made up of many types of aquatic and terrestrial worms, including all of the various earthworms." These would be classic "night crawlers" or "red wigglers" if they are to be used for fishing.
John calls that building a theater on many episodes... I know because I just binge watched about 200 episodes.
It was a theatre, the Mansfield. Later renamed the Brooks Atkinson. The show was filmed there from 1951 to 1960.
First game -- one Christmas Eve, if memory serves, a member of the Puerto Rico WML panel sat in on the New York panel for a while, so the second game was not completely unusual in its 5 members.
Interesting, who was the MG?
In an earlier epsiode, the panel was joined by a woman who was on the English version of WML
Dennis Day, Excellent mimic too. His sister-in-law is Ann Blyth. On radio he wouldn't have to hire any actors, he would do all the voices, which someone had a show like that years ago.
I was 3 days old when this aired!
On radio Dennis was on The Jack Benny Show but had his own show with Mary Jane Croft.
The cameramen in this TV series were great, too.
Dennis Day had 10 kids....Wow!
Apparently he didn't exercise any self-control. Shouldn't he have gone to phony baloney confession for that, or was he scared of the pædo priest in the box?
Good throw off by John to ask the Canadian WML panelist if she knew the scoring system.
Mel Blanc did most of the "voices" on Jack Benny.... including Si, Si, and Sy.

In a very real way, actually, yes-- since the character he played for JAck Benny and on his own series was that of a naive, dumb kid. He didn't look the part by 1950-- he was too old. By the end of the Benny series in 1965, it was almost laughable. It's a testament to his talent that the character still worked at all, because seeing a middle aged man pretend to be, essentially, a teenager, was quite jarring. Likewise, Don Wilson wasn't anywhere as overweight as he was supposed to be during the TV years, and it made the fat jokes feel, to me, even cheaper than they were on radio (possibly my least favorite aspect of the Benny radio/TV series, which I'm a gigantic fan of, are the fat jokes about Don Wilson.)

Worms are invertebrates. If John Daly would have looked on his cell phone and touch the big "W" and typed in worm, he would have found the answer.
ToddSF 94109 4 months ago
+mh K -- Invertebrates is a huge category of animals that includes anything that doesn't have a backbone. An insect is as much an invertebrate as an earthworm. Jellyfish, lobsters, oysters, snails are more examples of invertebrate. In fact, any given animal is either a vertebrate (mammals, fish, reptiles, amphibians and birds) or an Invertebrate (everything else). There are many different phyla of worms, too. An earthworm is an annelid as opposed to an insect -- annelids are the phylum that includes "segmented worms".

+Jill Gordon -- If John had stopped talking and hadn't interjected that line about a worm being in the "larva" family at the very end of the show, I'd have defended him because, until then, he hadn't said anything wrong. Ye gods, though, the larva family? The man was truly ignorant when it came to biology. To borrow a phrase from Dorothy Parker, when it came to biology, John Daly's ignorance was a veritable Empire State Building of ignorance. If nothing else, you had to admire it for its size. Of course, many know that an earthworm is an annelid (ringed or segmented worm) rather than an insect, and that a larva is one of the stages of insect life that precedes, for many insects, its final, six-legged adult stage. I also have to criticize Arlene who suggested a worm might be in the snake family. Ye gods, Miss Francis!

Obviously, Ms. Francis got the answer about the first contestant from the audience. It's bad enough when the obnoxiously macho male jerks in the audience start their childish whistling whenever an attractive female contestant comes on. It's too bad that there couldn't have been more of a separation between the audience and the panel, or perhaps a warning given to the rabble beforehand that anyone caught shouting out the answer would be thrown out of the theater. Or just doing away with an audience altogether ;)

What's My Line without the audience really wouldn't be the same. There's an energy that comes from having the live audience that would have been lost. Honestly, I think If even one segment in 100 was actually spoiled by the audience, I'd be surprised.
Jeffrey Slott 1 year ago
+What's My Line? Based on what? The more episodes I see on this channel, the less convinced I am that the panelists do not have some kind of "help". Bennett Cerf especially gets down to the real nitty gritty too many times and too quickly, especially when it comes to "guessing" the identities of the "mystery guests". Perhaps the audience does add something sometimes, but for me their "participation" takes all the fun out of watching the game. Which is a shame because otherwise I would enjoy these episodes a lot more.

Really? This show would've been fairly dull without the audience. If What's My Line were made today they'd have to continue with a live audience. There's no secret that laughs bring on more laughs.
ToddSF 94109 4 months ago
+Jeffrey Slott -- Bennett Cerf was remarkably well informed as to which celebrities were in town when the shows were on. So was Dorothy Kilgallen, who wrote a daily newspaper column, "The Toast of Broadway", and, like Bennett, she was quite aware of who was in town or appearing in nightclubs or hotel venues or who was currently starring in Broadway plays and musicals or who had a movie recently released or about to be released. Arlene was good at those things, too. In fact, it was their job as panelists to be aware of who was doing what entertainment-wise in New York, and who was visiting. As to the audience, if all the whistling for an attractive mystery guest sometimes led the panel to conclude the guess was a woman, they had to confirm it with a question and sometimes certain male celebrities got whistles, too, resulting in a "No" if the panel asked if the guest were a woman. Besides, if the whistling did indicate a woman mystery guest, that eliminated about 50% of the possibilities. If the show were done without an audience, it would be quite dull. I note that every other game show ever made to this very day has a live audience present, even "Jeopardy!". I have to wonder, if you're not enjoying these classic episodes of WML, why do you continue to watch them?
ToddSF 94109 4 months ago
+Adam Robinson -- I agree. They'd have a live audience if they were doing WML nowadays. All current game shows on the tube have a live studio audience -- they'd would definitely be dull if they were conducted with no audience reaction. In fact, I can't think of a single TV game show I've ever seen in my nearly 63 years of existence that hasn't had a studio audience.

Yes, good catch-- it was refreshingly modern of the first contestant to question John on why he was asking if she was married ("Does it make a lot of difference very much?"). I think he gave a terrible, rambling answer-- much simpler, and less convoluted, would have been to simply say that they asked about a female contestant's marital status so they would know whether to refer to her as Miss or Mrs.!

Bennett to John: goodnight larva boy! Bennett could make a pun out of anything.
At 16:40, John Charles Daly equates bacteria with "non-filterable viruses." This phrase dates back to the experiments of Dmitri Ivanovsky in 1892 and Martinus Beijerinck in 1898. At the time, all infectious agents were called "viruses", but Ivanovsky and Beijerinck showed that some of these agents could pass through a porcelain filter, the "filterable viruses", and some could not, the "non-filterable viruses." The term "filterable viruses" includes what we now call simply "viruses", while the term "non-filterable viruses" includes what we now call "bacteria", which are too big to pass through such a filter.
Bacteria are at least an order of magnitude larger than viruses. Bacteria can be seen with an optical microscope; viruses are too small to be seen by optical microscope. Bacteria were first seen by (optical) microscope by Leeuwenhoek in the 17th Century. Viruses were “seen” by electron microscope in the 20th Century. To the extent the terms filterable and no filter able may have been used, the definitions given are inverted
@@stevekru6518 "THE FILTERABLE VIRUSES by CHARLES E. SIMON, School of Hygiene and Public Health, Johns Hopkins University.
The term 'filterable viruses' was introduced in the late nineties of the preceding [nineteenth] century, to denote a group of disease producing agents, which seemed to differ from other forms of living matter in their ability to pass through earthenware filters having a pore diameter smaller than the smallest bacteria then known." Physiological Reviews Vol. 3, No. 4, 1923
Wonderful brain fodder. Thanks!
Whenever I hear Dennis Day now, I only think of this:
"The Lord is good to me, and so I thank the Lord for giving me the things I need: the sun and rain and an appleseed. Yes, He's been good to me!"
I remember Dennis as a pitch man for Kelloggs Corn Flakes on, I believe, the Gary Moore Show.
This first panelist is probably someone who would be known by sight in a more television-focused era. (Like, post-70s.)
Also, I believe Mrs. Crisafulli died in 2000. (But I'm not at all positive.)
Who from The Jack Benny Show was on WML? I know there was Eddie Anderson and here's Dennis Day.
Who else?
Ironically, Theda Bara was still alive when the show aired although she passed away in April of '55.
Dennis does a pretty good Jimmy Stewart impression.
I liked Nicole Germain. Very charming. Wish they had brought her on as a guest panelist for an episode. Would have been fun. I kept getting a vibe tho that Fred Allen didn't like her. He seemed kind of grumpy when she joined the panel for the game.
That was just Fred being Fred. His humor was black or white....you either liked it or you didn't. I've tried many times to try and see what the people in the late 50s saw in him, but I constantly fail. Fred Allen turns me off completely.
@@TheCometHunter Fred is my favorite panelist. He's so witty. I hate that he didn't live longer and appear on more WML shows.
+John Carper
(Responding to your question posted on the prior version.)
The mystery guest was Dennis Day. His relationship to Kenny Baker was that he replaced Baker as the tenor vocalist on Jack Benny's radio show in 1939.
I figured that Fred Allen would've been the one to get it.
I think Dorothy's questioning of Dennis Day may be an example of her milking camera time, which irked Arlene and Bennett.
Was this the only time-temporarily-tgere were 5 panellists 🎩
No😊
A worm is an invertebrate
Re: the second contestant, I don't think the panel actually asked if the animal was a bug at any point, but they thought they did. Daly didn't do anything wrong!
Actually, it's Johannes Charles Daly.
Dorothy always weasels extra questions!
Of course. She was a journalist.
A worm is an invertebrate Animalia
The worm has turned money cards on many WML shows, yet strangely, no bookworm pun from publisher Cerf. #SinofOmission
Fred Allen would die 13 months later. He knew. He does mention “ I’d like to know now please. I may be gone later”
Celebrities like the first contestant who are very lively and flamboyant kind of give too much of a clue to start out the panel.
I mean they will already know she is in the arts.
Jeepers.
This aired the day I was born.
Interesting...this is the third or fourth episode Dorothy has worn that same dress.
I also noticed that she wore it more than once. It looks quite lovely nonetheless. And I so wish I could see the episodes in color for nothing else than the outfits (usually a gown) worn by the female panelists, many of the female mystery guests and some of the female challengers.
So, do you supposed she may have washed it between shows?
What is it this show has with worms??!! I’ve seen this subject come up a hundred times!
Worms, wrestlers, bull fighters, girdle makers...too many times. There's more but I can't think of them right now.
worm is a wide variety of "animal". john was right.
It’s a shame we never had any clips of the français langue version of WML.😥
ua-cam.com/video/GkLjebyizyk/v-deo.html
Worms are not amphibious.
John was not as educated as he wanted us to believe.
one of the reasons i found dorothy annoying is on display in this episode where she knew it was dennis day and kept on dragging it out.
I never found fault w/Dorothy on any level. Loved her investigative techniques. She had a fine mind.
As Peggy Draper said, in this case John's "admonition" about how much time was left wasn't to get them to speed things up but to fill some time since there wouldn't be time for another guest.
Dorothy was unbelievably competitive. She knew full well the guest was Dennis Day but decided to drag things out to ensure she would guess him. Also, in other episodes notice if the guest or mystery guest got down to 9 down and one to go. If it came to Dorothy, she would always say "I pass". The only thing that frustrated her more than not guessing the person would be to be the one who's question it was when the panel lost the game.
@@galileocan She dragged things out when she knew there wasn't time for a fourth guess and therefore there was time to fill. She was helping Daly that way.
Bennett your jokes are still funny '70 years later..
John rather actively misled the panel on several occasions here -- something he didn't usually do.
Worms are not insects..they're invertebrate annelids, or segmented backboneless creatures with no exoskeletons.
Some do have spines, but not in the mammalian sense..more akin to dendritic "switchboards" communicating neuron receiving 'messages', but not entwined with any backbones.
Mammalian spines tend to be neuron senders and receivers, entwined into bony vertebrates.
Thank you!
You saved me having to Google it. Thank you.
@@nsnopper , that'll be $169.95 and I'll wave the taxes..
Dennis Day looks like Mr Daly s younger brother
You mean there's another "What's My Line' game show?
Several countries had their own version of the show. Only one episode of the UK version has been preserved, and one episode of the French language Canadian version. Both are available on UA-cam. In later years of the US WML, at least two contestants were panelists on the show from other countries.
Wikipedia lists 12 countries other than the U.S. that have had versions of "What's My Line": Australia, Brazil, Canada (French), Denmark, Germany, Indonesia, Lithuania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, and Venezuela.
I wonder what Mrs. Germaine said to Bennett when she did the walk in front of the panel. He seemed struck.
For some reason, I think that Arlene was furious with Dorothy’s dragging at the end with the questioning of the mystery guest.
She said "it's a secret"
Jihn Daly, during Dorothy's questioning of Dennis Day, informs the panel that there are "only three and a half minutes left" which is code for them that they need to fill in the time. Therefore, Dorothy starts drawing out her questions. It's all about the timing of the show.
The episode with the Brazilian lady who was the John-Daly of Brazil was hilarious, especially Cerf reaction! There the show was called "Adivinhe o que ele Faz?" This means "guess what he does". If I translate this in French, "Devinez ce qu'il fait", it does not as sound, in French, as good as "Chacun son métier". But I am not a Brazilian.....
Here is the clip ua-cam.com/video/GkLjebyizyk/v-deo.html but Mrs. Germain was not there. The young lady speaks in accented Canadian French while the others speak in "International French". Also the older lady Mrs. Jannette Bertrand, 32 years old on this clip, is still alive and kicking at 99. (here at 99, unbelievable mental acuity : ua-cam.com/video/F2CkuuQtie8/v-deo.html and she still has a "young" 80 years old boyfriend!!!).
Watching What's my line and also watching Cerf replacing Daly, and doing poorly, one realizes the perfect mix the American show had. It was a better show than the Canadian one. It makes us nostalgic of a more civilized, proper and in the non-political sense of the word, if that is possible, more conservative America.
Worms are NOT insects. :)
I think I saw a Dateline program where Dennis Day was murdered.
He died of ALS.
And in one of the Jack Benny's programs as well when he was shot while acting as a thug.
2:17 woah even back then she was challenging norms
Alice Chrisafulli was beautiful..
Since when is a worm a "domesticated animal?"
And Arlene thinks they're bugs...she's even a bit self-righteous about it!
+Gary Zerr
I presume when they are raised on a worm farm as the second challenger did for her occupation.
Lois Simmons Hahaha! =D
John gave him a qualified answer by bascally suggesting it is kept in a domicile of some sort, and is not wild in behavior. Also, Arlene said insect, and insects specifically have six legs, she only said bug after it was over. A bug is usually any arthropod, worms are annelids, though worms are usually also considered bugs.
you have to remember, answers are yes or no.
a no would mean it is not raised by humans. it would be wild.
the correct answer, if you didnt have the yes/no limit, would be, not like a pet cat or dog, more like a farm animal. but not wild.
When people showed some manners and class. Today?
I know. Had to call someone out at WM the other day. They tried to go ahead of me even tho it was obvious I was ahead of them.
