Gypsy Rose Lee tries to stump the panel in this 1953 episode of "The Name's the Same," including a vintage Swanson's beef pie commercial.

Kind of a strange premise for a show but -- ok - interesting just the same - nice rare appearance of GYPSY -

OMG that swanson beef pie had big slices of meat in it.

What a lady Gypsy was. So radiant and sophisticated. She was wasn't afraid to take the plunge, so to speak. Well ahead of her time, and greatly missed. Also, it was nice to see Music Man creator Meredith Wilson as a panelist.

Gypsy looks more like Rosalind Russell

Don't know why, but I guessed it before they showed it. Maybe because I knew enough about her.

This is a rare early 50s TV appearance by Lee, as she was essentially blacklisted during that time, not resurfacing regularly until 1956. But she obviously wasn't blacklisted from circuses!
