Jaye P. Morgan was 22 years old here. According to IMDb she was very popular on television variety shows around this time, having had a big hit with "Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries" in 1951, and she had been a regular vocalist on "Stop the Music" (1949-50). I never knew that, and I never watched "The Gong Show," either. Actually, I mainly know her from her memorable 1970s era appearance on "The Odd Couple" TV show, doing a way too slow rendition of Felix's "Happy and Peppy and Bursting With Love:" ua-cam.com/video/kz4ii0gbf3Q/v-deo.html. :)
Kathy Collins No, I don't have any plan to post IGAS, except for a few WML-related episodes coming up. The next series I plan on posting is To Tell the Truth (the night time series).
In answer to the question you asked in the video description, ("Did anyone *ever* win this game?"), I think that in the episodes you've posted so far, I've only seen a winner once -- in the "Nostradamus" one: ua-cam.com/video/Vjg3cLxRIpk/v-deo.html (winner announced around 23:40).
SaveThe TPC It was just meant as a joke, really. Five episodes, with 15 potentially winning contestants, and there's been a grand total of one winner so far!
This episode was originally broadcast on my birthday. I was 3 years old in 1954.
Good Show. Fred Allen was brilliant. Good performers. I met Bob Carroll about 20 years ago. Nice Man.
+bob rohde I'm sure, but he shouldn't be singing calypso. Ouch!!!
Please NEVER let me never hear the word TENNESSEE ever again. There was enough there to last a lifetime.
How close Fred always was to being a bit to free with his thoughts.
This would have been the end of the big band era before the introduction of electronic music instruments

Fred's last sponsor in radio was The Ford Motor Company. Too bad Ford did not sponsor this program and give away cars.
The best voice in the show belongs to the announcer, Don Pardo.
Do you have any I've Got a Secret? I'd love to see those the way you did the What's My Line episodes. It's all so great!
