Oh, how funny.

We had bread boxes back then, just the British sense of humour!

Fred was one of a kind. It's a shame he was taken from us too soon.

Most hilarious Wordsmith host on TV ever !! 😂😛

John laughing and hopping in his chair at his own antics is so adorable.

Great video.

Bobby Darin

You should have had the episode where she asked Yul Brenner if he had blond curley hair.

“John, we have enough trouble in this business without your starting that.” 😂

Arlene was very easily jealous when Martin would talk with beautiful women.

How absurd, making a point to enter a long list of guest hosts, yet, excluding Hal Block and all the others that were a pretty important part of the show at the inception of it. 🙄

That was so cute. “Are you my father?”

When Americans were so much smarter, so much cooler, and filled with so much promise.

She was soooooooo sweet! One of my favs :)

I wonder if this would work today?

My favourite Steve Allen moment was after his show, the audience got up and went home, apart from one member, a gentleman who was fast asleep.

Witty panel and witty guests AND no toilet humor. Those were the days.

When I don't want to think about any thing I put on WHAT'S MY LINE. I Puts a smile on my face.

Whoaa the real WML girl congratulations

John Charles Daly started as a newspaper reporter on ABC.

Well done

She was quite brilliant. She figured out more 'lines' than anyone. She also figured out who killed Kennedy and lost her life because of knowing.

A Delight!

RIP

That "Oh Dorothy" killed me 😂😂

I appeared on her radio show from Sardi's in 1989. She was very sweet and personable. I asked about the diamond heart necklace she always wore from her husband, Martin. Someone ripped it from her throat and ran off.

I wonder if John's 'circhmlocutions' began as a way of filling up time when the show looked like ending early

Today it might be considered a word salad, but he mostly did convey what he meant.

Thank you so much for compiling this!🙏 Fred Allen was hysterical as was Steve Allen. I would love to have seen a conversation with Fred Allen, Steve Allen, and Bennett Cerf. It would have been witty and intelligent.

I simply can’t listen to this enough times. I’m betting that he was a really kind man. 😂❤

I adore Dorothy Kilgallen.

Both Arlene and Dorothy are smart and classy women . Also , both are simply gorgeous.

Can anyone explain what is funny about Bennett Cerf asking about "wee ones" ? Where is the joke?

Who was the guy with glasses at 1:15?

Wonderful lady. May she rest in peace

No, he wasn't a Steve Allen or Fred Allen, but I enjoyed Martin's more cerebral and serious approach to the game which kept it on point and more entertaining for me.

She seemed a very nice woman and attractive. Hair style makes a lot of difference.

Love this era of What's My Line with John Daly as host. The panelists, Mystery Guests and guest panelists were always so wonderful and fun to see.

That was some great disguise of Edward G. Robinson using an English accent.

All ten of these are wonderful. I would add the moment when she asked Louis Armstrong to sing Hello Dolly.

I just imagine a fun evening of laughing and gaiety with Arlene, Dorothy, Bennett, John and my favorites Steve Allen and Jack Benny! Wow! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The wit, charm, and class of everyone was spectacular! Arlene and Dorothy were brilliant!! They don't make sharp entertaining ladies like them anymore... ❤❤❤❤❤

If John were in Yankee Stadium 10/05/58 he might not have enjoyed the game played earlier that day. Game 4 of the World Series was a 3 - 0 shutout of Yanks by Braves Warren Spahn.

Fun to watch the reactions by the contestants to John's epigrams... In pursuant to refer to a concise, witty, and often satirical verse, dealing pointedly and often satirically with a single thought or event. So there...

Best thing about John Daly, is that he named all of his sons John Daly.

11:47 What does she say?

she is one of my favorite women of all time

2:25 I know most of the Mystery Guests, but who was the kid?

2:57 Interesting that the sponsor was "Remington Rand Univac". Would the commercials have been about the technological marvel of the Univac computer? More likely that they would've been about Remington electric shavers, something the average viewer would be more likely to buy.
