+vbacs22 That's Hungarian with a Jersey accent. Ernie was born and raised in Trenton, home to a Hungarian community at that time. Even as late at the 2000 census, 1% of the population of Trenton (about 850 people) were ethnically Hungarian.
Although I was only 5 years old when he died Ernie lived in my neighborhood which had a lot of Hungarian people. I am not Hungarian but I can still remember walking past the houses and the smell of that great food cooking.
By coincidence, I made chicken paprikash for dinner tonight (1/27/2021), not knowing that my nightly WML fix was going to be this Hungarian laden episode. I'm not Hungarian either, but my mother's family migrated from Germany to Hungary in the 1700s. Long story short, my mother's cooking was part German and part Hungarian, so I picked up some of both.
People always seemed to laugh at John Daly for his "long winded" answers but he certainly was a master of providing a great explanation without giving too much away.

I've got no idea how they did it but every woman who lived in the 50s seemed to be the classiest lady ever. They just had something about them,a je ne sais quoi.
Suzanna Kiraly I'm not sure about the smart part (I don't think intelligence was very important for a woman in the 50's america) but they sure knew how to be charming and poised. I mean, they even looked lady-like wearing pants and smoking cigarettes. They didn't even have to be pretty to look timeless and elegant.
TheLastProzacNation I disagree about intelligence...it was definitely needed for women back then in order to cut through the stereotypes of people who thought as you do. My mother worked her way up from secretary to bank loan officer in the early 50s because her boss recognized how smart she was, and fortunately still is. One of the woman mayors who appeared on WML? was quoted as saying that to be thought half as good as men, women had to be twice as smart as men. "Fortunately, this is not difficult."
@@neilmidkiff men or women it doesn't matter. It is just that people then received real educations. The nation's graduation level for seniors in high school is testing at a 5th or 6th grade level, depending on state. It was 8th or 9th but about 3 years in a row in my state, that was all it took to drop drop and drop again. Forget telling parents to eff off with their demanding schools let kids have fones and forbid them to take them away even if used during instruction, forget better educational methods or equipment...nah just keep lowering the standards till it meets their stupidity nowadays and embracing of ignorance. They don't care to learn. And society and all the pussies and political nonsense and racism cries and shit is the outcome of a bunch of adult 5th and 6th graders entering the real world. Back then though they had to get to a 12tg grade level of material across the bored to graduate from 12th grade. No longer.
Gosh, Ernie Kovacs was just gorgeous and his comedy was completely his own. i really did miss him. this only reminds me. one thing, i did not know was that he was Hungarian. huh! 🌼 🎭
Ernie: Tudsz beszélni magyarul? (You can speak Hungarian?) Hát érted mit beszélek? (So you understand what I say?) Zsazsa: Nem (No) Ernie: Hát hogy vagy? (So how are you?)
+Mark Richardson I guess she was a bit confused and embarrassed. She couldn't understand or speak English very well. You can see her confusion when Ernie says the word amphibian - she clearly didn't understand the meaning of that word. Actually it is not that easy for Hungarians to learn English since our language is quite different both grammatically and logically. Also Zsa Zsa arrived to the US only in her mid-twenties and I guess that was the first time when she started to learn English.
+Mark Richardson She could have answered "nem" (no) only if she did understand Hungarian. Since she was born and raised there, of course she understood it. She had two sisters and a mother to continue to speak the language to. Also, the Gabor women kept connected to the Hungarian community in L.A. It's comparable but the reverse of asking someone if they are asleep. If they answer "yes", you know they aren't. (I wish my mom was still alive and I could have shared this episode with her. She probably watched it on the original date and she would have loved to see it again. And she could have translated it for me, after laughing at the exchange. She used to get a kick out of construction workers of Hungarian background making fresh comments about her in Hungarian, thinking she didn't know what they were saying, and she knew every word.)
She was such a silly vacuous woman, a liar, she was older than Eva, and why did she carry a handkerchief both times on the show like she was high on something?
loving these shows. tis a little odd to think many of them are now dead. I must also give it to the girls. they do a much better job of deducing the roles of the guests most of the time.
There seemed to be a baseline of respect and class in those days. By that I mean that even the poorest contestants from the smallest backwoods villages knew how to dress and behave for the most part. Even if they seemed a bit uncomfortable. They knew how to be proper in public settings.
I swear I am watching these totally at random, not bothering anyone, not doin' nothin', just watching; BUT this is the SECOND cow washer I've seen in two days! When will the madness stop! By the way, I will continue watching 3 or 4 a day because I long ago became a junkie! But, one locksmith, huh?
What strikes me aside from the genuineness of the panel is how well dressed people wanted to be and how uncorrupted the shows were than from all the subtly of Occult influences such they are today. The people we wanted to like because they were nice people doing nice things. And that show really engaged us we wanted to share in guessing who these guests are. This episode year is the year I was born how times have changed and not necessarily for the better.😊😊
Very unusual for the panel not to clarify if the Cow Washer was giving her services to humans or animals.They usually get that out of the way when it gets a big laugh from the audience but this time they never picked up on it.
assuming an 8 hour day with 1 hour off for breaks, 236 cows per hour. 4 cows a minute. takes 15 seconds to wash 1 cow. it costs $0.31 to wash a cow. I rounded up.
Zsa Zsa was a lot more humble in her early years, but once stardom, and rich husbands came into the scene she became a raving snob! No reason to lie here, my grandmother back in the day was a chef for Zsa Zsa among many other stars of the day. The story goes, according to my grandma, Zsa Zsa would order her to prepare the lesser cuts of beef for the gathering, and save the best cuts for the family. Seems about right from what I have seen of this obstinate, privileged star. 😁👍✌
+scorneli1202 Kids used to learn and practice handwriting in schools. Now they don't need to because they just send text messages. They don't learn to tell time (get that from the cell phone), to spell (spell checker, which works as long as you've used the correct word to begin with), or do basic arithmetic (cell phone again).

I see that by 1957 the non-mystery guests are shaking hands with the panel and exiting the same way the celebrity guests do. It should have always been that way.
A rather dreadful later life of illness and on life support for five years, but Gabor did finally get back home. 'In July 2021, Prinz von Anhalt had them [the ashes] reinterred in the artists' section of Kerepesi Cemetery in Budapest in order to fulfil her wish to return to Hungary. He said that the remains were transported in their own first-class airline seat.' Way to go, girl.
I still wear dresses like the women on all these '50s shows. They're so flattering if you have a figure, even if you're overweight like I am. So I watch this and say "OMG, I want that!" I'm not wearing vintage clothes, BTW, you can get such clothes new.
not only is a footman involved in transportation, they are a guard. specifically a guard on coaches against highwaymen. although later they also became something more like an assistant butler
+Alex Daniel Boy, did you miss out on a classic! One of our finest moments in TV history; explains why so much of American culture can be found in a Petri dish. (Don't tell me you were robbed of "The Beverly Hillbillies", "Gomer Pyle, USMC", and "Petticoat Junction", too?)
+gcjerryusc +David Fritz True, but even we Yanks have limits. After all, "My Mother the Car" only lasted one season. That show is from the same era as the shows mentioned by David, but beats them on the Dumb-o-meter hands down.
Arlene, what a classy lady she had her heart necklace stolen in the 1980s. it was given to her from her husband martin gable and it was snatched off her neck walking down the streets of nyc, she never got it back. she was devasted.
I remember hearing about that as a kid. I knew it was sad for its own sake, but I didn't know who Arlene Francis was at the time or the significance. Now I can appreciate the true sadness that it happened. It was more than just jewelry for her.
Zsa Zsa Gabor wasn't much of a talent, but she sure as hell was entertaining on talk shows from the 1970s to the 1990s. Zsa Zsa: "I am a marvelous housekeeper. Whenever I get divorced, I keep the house." She was 40 in this episode.
What was Arlene's joke at 19:26? I heard Zsa Zsa say "I hope I dance" and Arlene reply, "That's what you do with Arthur Murray" but I think I missed a comment because that isn't very funny.
Katie;. Arthur Murray was not exactly Mr Handsome and his business manner was not particularly friendly...but I think the thing most obvious to the audience was his looks.
19:30 If Arthur was lucky he did more than dancing that night! It's Minerva, the last villain who ever appeared on Batman ua-cam.com/video/o7QmybO7j5c/v-deo.html
The $50 prize isn’t anything to sneeze at. The cow washing lady said she made $1.22 an hour. $50 is a week’s pay, so that’s somewhere between $500 and $1,000 these days.
Chris Clements You got the wrong idea ... he meant the if you had a cow you might ask the second contestant to WASH THE COW, not that she could, in sone cases, wash you...

Ernie and Zsa Zsa conversing in Hungarian.
Priceless!
Yes, it's a pleasure to Hungarian fans like me, although I can barely understand what's Ernie saying.
+vbacs22
That's Hungarian with a Jersey accent. Ernie was born and raised in Trenton, home to a Hungarian community at that time. Even as late at the 2000 census, 1% of the population of Trenton (about 850 people) were ethnically Hungarian.
Although I was only 5 years old when he died Ernie lived in my neighborhood which had a lot of Hungarian people. I am not Hungarian but I can still remember walking past the houses and the smell of that great food cooking.

This show aired on date of my birth.
And Zsa Zsa is still Zsa Zsa ...

The first and only time that a mystery guest was questioned in Hungarian.
So glad I found this episode. Patricia Howard, the policewoman, was my Mother ❤.
That’s wonderful and so was she x
It's absolutely wonderful when the Mystery Guest acknowledges the audience as the depart.
It's funny how elegant this show is, everyone is in some kind of tux or evening gown.
I've got no idea how they did it but every woman who lived in the 50s seemed to be the classiest lady ever. They just had something about them,a je ne sais quoi.

I wish they brought back this show. I think it would be a huge hit.
+Marcus Divine Maybe, but people really do not have these individual occupations anymore due to the computerized world.
I wish they'd bring back women acting like ladies.
No it wouldn’t... people aren’t classy enough it would be turned into some gossip bullshit
I agree! It would be great fun and a great success!
It would all depend on who you could get for the panel and the host.
Say what you will about them...the Gabors were a hell of a lot of fun.
Arlene looks stunning for her age here.
Ernie Kovacs was such a gem. Very funny man and a good actor too. The film 'Our Man in Havana' owed a lot to him.
I really like the idea of every one saying good night to the panel. I know this has been happening for a while.
RIP Zsa Zsa. True class.

Arlene's crack when it was said the Zsa Zsa would dance with Arthur Murray "that's what you do with Arthur Murray" was a hoot!".
He was old...see? 😀😀
Thanks for the upload. This was a great episode.
Liked it when Ernie spoke Hungarian to Zsa Zsa
The lass who washes the cows could pass for Miss Jane Hathaway's younger sister. Cute.
'Charming' is a better appraisal.
I thought the same thing
Ernie Kovacs was a great fit for this show. Steve Allen was my favorite as the 4th panelist.
Steve Allen and Tony Randell
Is it just me, or does Mr.John Daly enjoy his conferences with "glamour girls" especially much?
Creepy.
Ahhh, the days when people said ravishing and were in fact ravishing.

My thoughts exactly. And all three regulars were on the panel! Very unusual.
assuming an 8 hour day with 1 hour off for breaks,
236 cows per hour.
4 cows a minute.
takes 15 seconds to wash 1 cow.
it costs $0.31 to wash a cow.
I rounded up.
She earned $1.22 an hour, not each minute, so the labor cost for washing was about half a penny per cow, if we use your other assumptions.
Interesting that the police woman was referred to then, as a policeman.
Many times I have wished I could have lived back in that era as a young adult.
Often, though I was born in '56, I thought it should have been in '46.

16:00 $1.22 an hour in 1957 would be the equivalent of around $13.00 in 2023. A decent living wage for that period. Not so much now.

Is Ernie Kovacs smoking that cigar? Or is he just chomping on it like a prop?
I don't understand how Ernie Kovaks got a "NO" answer when he asked if "soap was involved" when they had the lady who washed cows?
Apparently she just sprayed water on them with a hose. Instead of no soap, radio, this was no soap, bovine.
I assume the cows were on their way to be milked, so you wouldn't want to have soap residue on their udders.
not only is a footman involved in transportation, they are a guard. specifically a guard on coaches against highwaymen. although later they also became something more like an assistant butler

Katie Jergens I am a little older and I know all about Arthur Murray, and I still don't get the line. Missing something.
Katie;. Arthur Murray was not exactly Mr Handsome and his business manner was not particularly friendly...but I think the thing most obvious to the audience was his looks.
With Arthur Murray, you hope that what you will be doing will be dancing.
"Classic"
$1.22 per hour... so its minimum wage..
I got a raise in 1963 to 1.25. I think that was the new minimum.
19:30 If Arthur was lucky he did more than dancing that night! It's Minerva, the last villain who ever appeared on Batman ua-cam.com/video/o7QmybO7j5c/v-deo.html
what did she do?
The only problem was let the secret guest talk...
The $50 prize isn’t anything to sneeze at. The cow washing lady said she made $1.22 an hour. $50 is a week’s pay, so that’s somewhere between $500 and $1,000 these days.
Why didn’t they explain the keeping track to the contestants before the came out?
Everybody was laughing in min. 19:27. But I could not understand what they say. Could someone explain it please.
They said “We are a bunch of overpaid phonies on a totally rigged show.” So, ha ha, eh?
Can anyone explain the Arthur Murray joke Arlene made when Zsa Zsa had been revealed?
that second contestant has some set of choppers
And the men also 😇😇
$1.22 per hour!!
That's inflation!
SOAP NO . IF SERVICE WAS PERFORMED ON A PERSON IT WOULD BE SOAP.. SO IT WAS MISLEADING
Chris Clements You got the wrong idea ... he meant the if you had a cow you might ask the second contestant to WASH THE COW, not that she could, in sone cases, wash you...
The 2nd guest's job paid $1.22 a hour, wow. Makes you wonder if that would sustain a person's life back then. :)
The dudes in the audience really needed to not do the wolf calls. It gives away too much.
$1.22 an hour!!!!
$1.00
In the year 1957, the United States minimum wage was $1.00.
Good old days, strong American dollar 💵
