I'm 62 years old and watched The Beverly Hillbillies every week when I was a kid and this is the first time I've seen Irene Ryan out of character! She was a very lovely lady!
Good Lord! I just looked her up on Wikipedia and she was about the same age then as I am now!
I feel so OLD, now! 😛
Yeah she was, she’s in a film with Kirk Douglas called my dear secretary Laraine Day was also in it.
Me Too, that show brings back memories.
Same
Loved how she argued that Santa Monica was 1 word!! Then she was slurping her lips for gravy!! 🤣
I got to meet Donna Douglas in NE Ohio about 18 yrs ago. She had a farm close to where I worked and the owner of our factory brought her around. She spent about 30 minutes with me and some co workers just talking. She was a joy and of course I was in love with her from the early 60s.
Where in Ohio ?
I turned 75 this weekend and to find this show has brought back so many great memories. This, the Match Game, the Tonite Show with Johnny Carson, so much nostalgia.. I was 2 years out of high school and in my first job, 19 years old. Gee, remembered so much just watching this one.
If you watch Pluto TV you can watch Johnny Carson and Carol Burnett shows all the time.
Irene Ryan had so little attention toward her non Beverly Hillbillies persona. It was nice to see Irene out of character. I’m 64 and remember Donna Douglass and Irene Ryan and Bob Crane on Password which is a game show that personifies the 1960’s.
I love when Alan Ludden says to Bob Crane (16:17) "You always were a little strange"--how true that was as it would be revealed a few years later
His first name was Allen- not Alan.
We lost a beauty queen when we lost Donna Douglas. She was very beautiful may she rest in peace....
Yes. She died on January 1, 2015. Max Baer, Jr was really heartbroken 💔.
Yes, I got to meet her years ago in Trenton, TN. She was selling jewlrey and she was the absolute sweetest most gracious lady! Beautiful inside and out..
Don't forget Irene Ryan.
Donna Douglas died ?
@@BadRonald1 You make it sound like you didn't know. Donna died New Year's Day 2015 .
Donna Douglas is a real southern belle ...every time she speaks she just oozes Southern Comfort ....
It's hard to believe she passed on a while back.
@@ghosty426 I remember these password shows well! Just about all of the celebrities are gone now! Time moves on! As the saying goes!
And complete idiocy
Love seeing Irene and Donna, its a rare treat to be able to see them out of their characters, Irene was so sweet not silly granny and Donna was quite intelligent as well as beautiful and Bob Crane was Bob Crane....lol
Knowing what we now know about Bob Crane, several of the words were hysterical!
It’s so strange to see Granny dressed like Mrs. Drysdale!
I'm 62 years old and watched Beverly Hillbillies every week when I was a kid and this is the first time I've seen Irene Ryan out of character! She was a very lovely lady!
LOL
@@lelandframe1029 and talented. Look up some of her songs.
I bet Bob either screwed Donna or at least tried to..
HAHAHA
Love Donna’s & Irene’s suits! What timeless class & style.
YES! I loved their outfits, too. It was really nice to see Irene Ryan without all that makeup on that she wore when she played Granny, too.
Women were classier back then.
@@peopleskarmasquad1042 A lot of women who go to Spirit filled churches are classy like myself.
@@lynettepalecek3141 👍🏻 Good to hear.
@@peopleskarmasquad1042 Women wanted to be women.. not men.. didnt run around tattooed up like a carnival freakshow or cussing every sentence.
The original PASSWORD is one of the best TV shows ever created!
Allen Ludden was an outstanding host.
@@michaelwascom62 Plus he saw Betty White naked!
I’ll always remember walking into our small town health food store and finding Donna Douglas graciously visiting with all the locals. She was just lovely and acted just like her TV personality. We have a large Bible college here and she is a student there. Who knew of her great faith?
Loved it!
Rhema Bible College in Broken Arrow, OK
I knew that Donna Douglas was definitely a born again Christian. I knew that before she died on January 1, 2015.
2021 this is still fun to watch! Host Allen Ludden, Betty White's husband, was always great to see too!
This was a lot of fun to watch, loved this show. Donna and Irene both look lovely.
I agree completely!
Yes, Irene is drop dead gorgeous.
@@sharksport01 She looks lovely in her own way as an older woman.
@crystalheart9 She was a middle aged woman. She was much younger than her character in "The Beverly Hillbillies." She was in her late 40s here.
@@crystalheart9Irene Ryan was much younger than her character Granny in "The Beverly Hillbillies." She was in her late 40s here.
The outfits on Donna and Irene were way classy. Granny perhaps one of the greatest television characters ever.
Colonel Hogan's my hero...was big influence on me as kid.
Granny and Ellie, BEAUTIFUL LADIES!! I was a child when the show was on tv, and this is the first time I see them out of character.
Thanks for posting this video!! Love the affection between Donna Douglas and Irene Ryan♥️♥️♥️♥️
Hogan's Heroes was a great show, and John Banner (Sargent Schulz) always made me laugh
This is so good.
Allen Ludden, " You always were a little strange...." Huge understatement!!
Boy does that bring back memories, Granny was my favorite as a kid. Couldn't wait for for BHB to come on. Hogan Hero's was a great show as well.
Were it not for Granny and Jethro, then no BHB.
@lorimrasek I hated how the granny character was always trying to "wup" Jethro and treated him like a little kid. She ordered Ellie Mae and Jethro around like they were infants, when granny actually misunderstood her new Beverly Hills culture and surroundings the most. I guess that was part of the humor, but I hated watching all that child abuse!!
@@brigitteking969 I guess that's how the characters we're written into the show, I get what your saying, shows like The BHB wouldn't fly in 2023, there is enough child abuse in the world we don't need to watch it on tv.
@@brigitteking969THAT DEFINITELY WAS NOT CHILD ABUSE!! 😡👎
@@lorimrasek7611That definitely was NOT child abuse!! 😡👎
Those were the days of great tv shows.
Bob Crane had his faults but then so do A lot of the people who watched and enjoyed his acting.
The way he was murdered was horrific and the guilty Should have been caught and sentenced.
Those were the days, when there was great game shows. Will all miss Alex Trebeck, he's the best. So is Allen luden
Alex Trebek and Allen Ludden were great game show hosts.
@@ericdreizen1463 you're confusing real life with your imagination
@@ericdreizen1463
What the Hell ?
@@ericdreizen1463 what is wrong with you?!
Almost blasphemous to omit 'Wink Martindale' - the name alone qualified him.
Say what you will, but the "nickel" clue exchange between Bob Crane and his female contestant partner was hysterical! Easily one of the funniest back-and-forth clues dialog in the show's original run.
Dime
I think that girl wanted to be an actress. She had a natural quirkiness about her.
Agreed! Poor Bob Crane couldn't have given better clues.
@@scottroth9811 Odd how Allen Ludden didn't ask her what she did for a living.
When they had good television programs compared to now a days good funny shows
Television back then had to adhere to a certain moral code; remember, nothing considered "racy" was shown before 9pm (except, soap operas shown during times that children were in school). I gave up on television decades ago and have not had one since I took a hammer to it...
Yeah😋
I love seeing 2 (3) great guest stars on the original Password.
DONNA DOUGLAS WAS AS BEAUTIFUL AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE
Agreed. Equal if not surpassing Marilyn Monroe. Elvis Presley broke her heart.
And a good hearted lady.
Yes and i think unasuming .i was thinking
As i watched this there could be beauty pageant of truly beatiful women and she walks in and turns every head in the joint .
@@trissloan663 yeah , who and lost out in that deal .
@roger adams
And she had a huge butt.
To the PASSWORD youtube channel: how do you leave Donna Douglas out of the written intro?
Donna cried like crazy at Irene’s funeral. She collapsed into Buddy Ebsen’s arms and Max Baer moved right in for support. He was clearly shaken over seeing Donna’s being so distraught. There they were, the three of them! Clustered together. Sad. It’s sealed in my memory!
9 years they worked together. During the summers Donna, Max and Irene toured. They made personal appearances. They had the same managers. They made pretty good money doing this.
When the series was over Max and Donna didn’t have much money. Each was paid, I believe, about $250 per show during the early years. It many have been Irene who was paid $350, but it may have been Max who was paid that. Irene never wanted to blow the gig by negotiating for more money.
Buddy was paid , if I remember, $1300 per show in the beginning. That was in 1962, 63.
When the series ended Max had a plan and he became a success with some work that he didn’t want to do.
I think Buddy got quite a bit more than the $1300 and the rest of the principles got $500 per show at the beginning. It became an issue. The money raked in by Filmways and CBS was obscene so the actors were pretty well screwed-over. The castmembers did get significant pay raises, but it was a pittance compared to what was paid to actors for #1 shows by the 80'and 90's. That says nothing of residuals, which were generally limited to 4 reruns back then. They all should have been multi-millionaires from that show- but that's the way it was back then. That's why they all did so many game shows and personal appearances back then.
Don Diego
~~On the Jerry Springer show in 1993, Max (Jethro) said, "I should have asked for more money", and Donna (Eli-May) right away said, "Yes".
~~I wonder if Max's (Jethro's) Beverly Hillbillies 'casino' (& entertainment park) ever really got built in Lake Tahoe, Nevada as he planned to do.??
@bruce t
~Look up:~>
Tuesday, April 1, 2008 interview on TV GUIDE
>The Beverly Hillbillies Max Baer Jr. on Being Jethro<
Interviewer: Tim Williams
~Max (Jethro) talks about "why" he hated Jethro mainly because of career reasons after the show in getting other acting jobs.
@bruce t I always thought Max reminded me of little Abner in the Sunday comics
@@mikewynne7131 wow they only made money in the hundreds while buddy Made $ 1300. God that's crappy. They're all equals to each other. Since when did Jed become the first one equals? It's like saying the bishop of Constantinople was the first among equals among the other large metropolises like Rome Antioch, Jerusalem, and Alexandria
Donna was beyond gorgeous when she starred in the twilight zone episode “the eye of the beholder”
This is such great footage....really actors that were so well known in the day
16:15 Allen to Bob: “Well, you always were a little strange”.
Bob's reputation may have always been suspect.
Nice guy (maybe), but a little odd.
I was wondering if anyone else picked up on this. Looking back this was a pretty eerie comment from the host considering what we later learned about Bob Crane. Makes me wonder if he actually meant it or it was just a throwaway comment?
@@nazmoking3171
Even my old grandma at the time picked up on it. I bet Ms. Ryan knew he was a freak too.
@@frankiebowie6174 nothing wrong with a little freaky!! Lol
These were days of swingers...even Ludden...
@@heyokaempath5802 You’re a lunatic… Allen Ludendorff NEVER cheated on Betty White.. He was truly a devoted husband…. Then he flirted with my Aunt… 😂😂😂😂😂
My God,they just don't create women as beautiful as Donna Douglas anymore
Yes she was attractive, but she wasn’t all that. And she had a huge butt.
They're all around you in real life, Don.
It's just that so many of the celebrity ones have been severely surgically-altered.
When I was in high school, she sent me an autographed pic. I'll always treasure it! Such a crush I had, along w/ every male in America! Also, I met Bob Crane. He had the #1 morning show in LA. For good reason. He was just the greatest ever!!
@@gz9520 KNOCK IT OFF! Donna Douglas did not have a huge butt when she played Elly May Clampett!!
@@PanhandleFrank Donna Douglas was a genuine born again Christian ✝️! She did not have any reconstructive surgery. Marilyn Monroe had everything reconstructive done and she bleached her hair. Donna Douglas was a great actress because she was a genuinely very sweet person. Just ask Max Baer, Jr.
I just loved Irene Ryan. She was adorable!
Did I miss why it was 3 celebs and a civilian on this particular episode? Maybe Donna was playing for the Adopt a Possum Foundation or sumpin'???
It was a surprise guest appearance 🙂
I suspect a contestant didn’t show up or got sick and they called her in.
No matter what, so sad how Bob died. He could have had a great career too.
I love the jacket switch.......
Bob’s thinking “Which one of you ladies wanna check out my new camera equipment?”
i bet he nailed Ellie Mae, just saying
Illegal taping in an apt or hone means tanlawsuits
I can't unsee the image of poor bobs homicide 😢
@@muzikmonkeyman1 Donna was one of the nicest moral people. So quiet being a perve, just saying.
@@muzikmonkeyman1 I'm sure he nailed Ellie Mae - the question is whether he also nailed Granny.
I like both granny and Donna...seem like good people..
I love that gold color jacket and Alan's tie. Alan Ludden wore nice threads on this show.
Allen Ludden was always well dressed. Irene Ryan and Donna Douglas wore beautiful outfits on this show.
Ludden: "We want our tomatoes to walk in front." (after Donna Douglas went behind him when switching partners") Another era indeed.
Total nonsense exaggeration....the exact same thing (and MORE) could easily be said on any show today....hell, they curse or ever worse on TV today. Quit kidding yourself with nonsense observations.
@@waldolydecker8118 I call BS. Nobody could get away with that sort of sexist crap today.
@@waldolydecker8118 It's not the '50s anymore Waldo. The PC Police are out in full force, often to ridiculous excess.
@@waldolydecker8118 So my motivation in criticizing sexist language was to put down the PC Police for correcting sexist language? Your total freedom from logic is showing. Produce one example of anyone this century calling a woman a tomato in public. Take your time. I'll get back to you after, say, a year of your fruitless searching.
@@JLee-rt6ve - Chump, you wouldn't know "logic" if you tripped over it. Ludden was not being sexist; its not his personality on the show. He was making reference to the word "tomato" that Donna Douglas had just used in the previous word game. That's YOUR spin that he was making a "sexist"comment; Douglas didn't react as if she took it that way or was offended. You seem more offended than she or anyone else on the show.
Today, the term is archaic, so its not readily used THIS CENTURY - plenty of other words have taken its place with frequent use THIS CENTURY, such as "bitch" "hoe" and at least a dozen others your mother can educate you about if you want to claim you are too dumb to know them. Women are unfortunately referred to as "bitches" and many other names across today's popular culture and media, but according to your brain, if anyone today were to reach back and resurrect the archaic term "tomato," it would be more consequential than all the "bitches" that permeate across today's media, lol. OK, keep believing that "logic," Skippy. I say in scenarios where the term "bitch" is used in today's media where there are no consequences, then the use of what is widely regarded as a lessor offensive term "tomato" would clearly receive the same no consequences in the exact same scenario. Your "logic" disagrees. That's why Trump talks to you....he too knows all about your "logic." I'll get back to you after say, a year and $5 will get you $10, your "logic" on this issue will be unchanged and unimproved. Good news for Trump, now that he's running again. Keep the oath, brother.
Pause at 6:17 and behold. We have very few classy beauties like Donna Douglas in showbusiness these days.
I sure love these classic password shows!
Donna Douglas was originally from the same city where I've lived all my life: Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She graduated from Redemptorist High School in 1950, was married (for a few years) to a man whose last name was Bourgeois, and was known as Dot Bourgeois before she went to Hollywood and legally changed it to Donna Douglas. She visited my elementary school in the early 1960's; and, naturally, everyone was thrilled. In the mid-to-late 1950's, she dated my best friend's dad. She was a local celebrity.
Ludden "That's a Pretty Girl" Truer words have never been Spoken
It really was a different world, wasn’t it? I miss it. ❤️😢
So do I.
Absolutely agree
Normal
tears in my eyes i didnt know i could watch something like this...
Donnas soooo sweet.
Good wholesome TV like I used to watch, Irene is so funny!
Thanks. I missed the original airing. Busy being born.
That's Betty White on the left when they first show the studio audience
She was married to Alan the host.
@@seeleygirl6178 Yep; they really loved each other a lot.
I liked this original Password with Allen Luden as host. I always liked that deep voice that said "the password is" and then would show the word onscreen. I watched this during summers and holidays when new, because otherwise it was on tv while I was in school. Popular TV stars of the era were on this. They must have made Irene Ryan look older to play Granny. Her hair is a pretty color on this, and she looks younger.
I know just what you mean Michelle, I was watching the reruns on my summer vacation as well. watching this now really takes me back to my youth.
@Michelle. Yes, Irene Ryan wore very heavy makeup and a gray wig when she played Granny. She was actually in her late 40s or early 50s when she died in the late 1960s. Wikipedia, Google, and UA-cam are completely wrong about her.
Legendary tv actor&actress
This was two months before I was born. It seems that Allen Ludden was a supporter of teachers and schools which is good. I would have loved to have played password with Granny.
I like this original Password Game vs the newer camouflaged version of the game 25 words or less.
This episode just aired today on Buzzr. Amazing!
Ms. Douglas is an absolute stunner
I watched a movie called "Auto Focus" the other day, it was based on Bob Crane's rise to fame and his unsolved murder. After seeing Bob Crane on this game show was a lot different from how he was portrayed in the movie. In this show, Bob appears to be happy go lucky whereas in the movie he seemed isolated and tormented. I enjoyed Hogans Heros, it was screened in my country, Australia in the 60s when I was a little kid, so was the Hillbillys. To this day I still watch reruns of both shows, thanks for showing Bob Crane in the fashion of how we should remember him.
Crane's behavior would be considered a bit more mainstream in today's Hollywood . Charlie Sheen was more wild than Crane .
Well of course he'll be on his best behavior on a tv show.
Wait, three celebrities are competing? And Donna Douglas won some prize money? Not for charity? Interesting.
This was a funny episode
Bob Crane was so personable and handsome too. He had his demons though...very dark demons. 🎥
The old 2" quad videotape looks amazing.
I watching this while eating my vittles by the ceement pond!
This was fun to watch!
Bob's death is still a cold case, alot of mystery involved.
Actually, he looked at a lot of children's pornography. The rumor was that someone got extremely angry at him when he or she found out about it and that person went to the Bob Crane's hotel room and bludgeoned him to death by beating him on the chest. His white tee shirt turned completely pink from the blood. He was killed in his sleep. He was killed on June 30, 1978. He was 49 years old.
@@lynettepalecek3141 Or he was with someone's wife, or he had an argument with his friend who got the cameras, or his wife hired a hitman (or men) to kill him because he was going to divorce her. A lot of theories, we'll never know.
He's death image still haunts me
His killer was probably somebody who didn't like his show on KNX!
Klink came up from Argentina and slew Hogan.
Iren Ryan and Donna Douglas were both lovely ladies.
Met Donna in Atlanta Airport, could not have been more approachable
Bob Crane sounds like he could have been a game show host too
Candid Camera could have used him, too.
@@robertsprouse9282 haha

Granny's Cookbook !!!
Donna could act. Watch her on a certain episode of "The Night Gallery". Quite a departure from her sweet country girl image.
You know darn good and well Bob was trying to work that!
Donna Dougals' squeal was very cute!
Irene Ryan said on the Virginia Graham Show that playing Granny was the easiest job she ever had in show business, working only 2 1/2 days a week.
Donna Douglas was beautiful inside and out. We saw her and fellowshipped with her every year for over 15 years. She wanted to find a match for our son. She was so genuine and loving. Such a wonderful Christian woman. A true blessing to know!
I got the impression Frita irritated Bob a little bit and he was trying to be polite. She was looking for every opportunity to touch him.
A much better era. This one sucks.
She was dumb, too.
Bob had to be careful. She looks very young.
But I can't help but thing he was interested.
You ever watch something and realize all these people are dead ☠👻
Praise God that Donna Douglas was a born again Christian and is heaven. My sister saw her at a church when she came to visit New Mexico about 10 years before our Lord took her home. She was so precious. 🙏🕊🙏💜👰
Yes,and she’s young and beautiful again…like we all will be…
Doesn't God like ugly people in heaven?
Amen!!! 🙏🙏🙏✝️
Amen! ❤
Bob Crane is great in this but nothing to lose your head over his performance.
From such a better time.
'Curve'...Donna 😂

"Werner Klemperer was the only one who supplied his own uniform." Love that...
Ironically, Werner was Jewish.
@@nicoleknight9412 Most of the main German characters on the show were Jewish, including Hochstetter, Burkhalter, Langenscheidt, Sontag (1 of over a dozen Germans played by Dave Morick) and others. Burkhalter's scar was real, a result of a Nazi who attacked Leon Askin for being Jewish. Ironically, Askin's given family name was Askenazi.
@Mark Andresen Klink's uniform included medals Klemperer genuinely earned as a US soldier in WWII. Those "Germans" on HH's were greater men than most of us will ever know.
@@nicoleknight9412 was not Jewish
@@jamesmccormick1156 Wrongo! The three men who played Col. Klink, General Burkhalter and Sergeant Schultz were all three of Jewish family origins. One German-Jewish, (W.K.) and the men that played Schultz and Burkhalter were Austrian-Jewish. Thankfully all three were able to get out of Hitler-ville before they were exterminated by the Nazi goons that ran the Concentration / death Camps.
All 3 men came to the U.S.A. and signed up and served in the U.S. Army Air Corps. After WW2 ended, they went back to their previous jobs as entertainers/musicians. W.K. was a good actor: He played the not-very-bright Col. Klink in a comedy show, and also, he was on an episode of "Perry Mason" and played a very serious character. Years later he was on an episode of Law & Order playing a serious character. {The father of a nutcase that stole women's clothing.}
As for the yelling Gestapo Major Hostetler(?) (Who wore an SS black uniform) on H.H. that man was/is also of a Jewish family, but he was born in the U.S., and was/is a guitar player/singer.
I bet that REALLY upset all the Jew-hating, pro-Nazis that watched the TV series.... Four Jewish guys playing Uniformed Nazis in a WW2 setting and always getting outsmarted by the Allied P.O.W.'s. 🙂
I used to watch this back in 1965.I was 11 years old and I didn't speak a English that well...
Three talented actors gone !!
"Australia" was a good clue by Granny, I was thinking "burning...?"
I was a week and a half old when this aired.
I was two months out 😂 still bakin in the oven.
Those were the days
I don’t understand why there‘s 3 celebrities and one civilian contestant
Me too. I thought that would be the prevalent comments.
They clearly said that Donna showed up as a surprise ,😲
@@justicebeginstoshine8069 Thanks. I didn't hear that part.
Dam Bob crane looked handsome
As you can clearly see they just don't make them like they use to.
elly may what a class act!
Love Bob Crane ❤
Granny cleans up nicely.
Unbelievable talent here! Current celebrities can't compare. Sick really.
It is worse than that..even the remakes of old films seem to insult the very movies that the newer directors to copy. Actors nowadays are not grateful for their fans..but are politically motivated.
Donna's voice Sounds a lot like (Loretta Lynn) voice are they from the Same Part or Area of the State Kentucky.
Bob's toupee almost fell off when he puts his head on his elbow.
You know Bob Crane had fun after the show.
Wow! I've never seen Granny not looking like Granny.
Can't believe it took so long for masculine to be used as the clue for feminine. Bob should have started with that immediately. So obvious.
I would have loved to be one of Ellie Mae's "critters."
I would be a constantly sick raccoon looking for a good hug.
