+moontheloon5 Thanks, Bill. The good news is that at this point, all the videos but one are cleared of any invalid copyright claims. I really didn't expect it to go this way! I appreciate your support.
Really fun episode. Not surprised that Jayne had to disqualify herself twice!! Sadly, both Duke Lloyd and David Andrews died very young of cerebral hemorrhages.
Organ music was quite popular from at least the '50s to the '70s. Besides church services it could be heard in supper clubs, dance halls, ballparks (which is somewhat still common), shopping malls, cruise ships, museums, et cetera. It's such a terrific instrument!
So I am happening upn WML and suddenly there is my old Contracts Professor in the 1960's- and 1970's which decidely was shocking enough.. then here is around age 10 or so..Wow. He does look more like his mother here, but as he ages, more like his father. It is remarkable to see the stages where the progressed personality has indications of itself showing through. He always presents as keenly aware of the social setting, its rules of decorum, and is both attentive and noticebly gifted with both sensitivity and an early sense of humor. What it must have been like to have such famous socialite parents and then to become a figure representing the counter culture. The whole sociology of WML and shows like I've Got a Secret are fascinating and one can see how one generation's standards and issues led to the development of the next generations standards and issues.
David X really does look like his father. Sadly he died in 1964 from a cerebral hemorrhage. Sadly Harold Loyd Jr died at age 40 in 1971. He had suffered a massive stroke in 1965.
Duke Lloyd was actually Harold Lloyd, Jr. He made a few "B" movies starting in the earlier 1950s through the mid-1960s and did some singing in them. He achieved minor success as a cabaret singer and apparently recorded one album of romantic songs. Sadly, he had a massive stroke in 1965 at age 34, from which he did not make a complete recovery. It led to his death in 1971 at age 40, just three months and one day after the death of his father.
Shame to read that David Andrews passed away 6 years after this, aged only 31. And Harold Clayton Lloyd, Jr. died aged only 40 in 1971. Both from a cerebral hemorrhage.
He's up there with Marty, Arlene, Uncle Bennett, Aunt Phyllis, Aunt Dorothy, Uncle Dick, Uncle Steve, Aunt Jayne, Uncle Fred, and Grandpa John. The gang is reuniting these days.
oh my goodness - no idea it such a pain in the you-know-what to post these wonderful, terrific, nostalgic shows. i just loooooove them. thank so very much - i've been having a great time for three days now. . . i wish we had these kinds of shows now. . . maybe Netflix can start one and a variety show - i really miss those. . . so thanks again and i have a wonderful life - (sorry couldn't help it) :}
TV today is nothing like it was in the 1950's and 1960's even the 1970's and 1980's. It is sad that I was born in the wrong generation I was born in 1984.
Phillis Cerf wasn't that famous; Jane Meadows was trying to be nice by saying that. I think Phyllis Cerf (Johnny's mother) was only well-known to certain groups of people, and perhaps to What's My Line fans, but not to general television viewers.
So sad: Son of Dana Andrews Dies; Was Radio Musical Director Feb. 16, 1964 SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Feb. 15 (AP)-David Andrews, 30 years old, son of the Hollywood Star Dana Andrews, died today after having been in a semicoma for the last month because of a cerebral hemorrhage. The hemorrhage caused extensive brain damage. His wife, Tracy, was at Marin General Hospital when he died. Mr. Andrews was a graduate of the University of California at Los Angeles. He became an associate program producer with the Columbia Broadcasting System in Los Angeles. He later worked as an announcer at KIDD in Monterey and came to KFRC in San Francisco as an announcer and musical director two years ago.
What a wonderful piece of history in those few precious moments. It made me think of all the people who have came here, and kept their music alive to stay connected with home.
Dorothy’s son does look like Johnny Ray. She admitted to her husband that Kerry was Johnny’s son, but he kept it quiet until after she died. Kerry knows his parentage now.
As far as I have seen, the rumors have just been unfounded unless you have seen otherwise. The one person I saw promoting the proof that the child was not his father's was because of his hair color. Which is bunk.
Ooops, Kerry Kolmar’s father was Johnny Ray, as we later found out. Richard Kolmar disowned Kerry after Dorothy’s death because she told him Johnny was the father and not Dick.
@@bookwoman53 Dick disowned him after Dorothy’s death because she’d told him he wasn’t the father. Dick took out his disdain for Dorothy on poor Kerry.
I am surprised . I did not think Mr Ray was capable of having children . While Mr Kollmar was a close friend of Desi Arnaz in his Broadway days before Lucille Ball . Ms Kilgallen must have been a very fertile woman .
‘Bill’ Bendix? Can you show me anything where he is listed as Bill! John Daly has a habit of changing names like this on What’s My Line. Pointless and irritating.
The only time I watched this show was a year or so ago when Arlene was on it. And then today I watched it only because to TTTT panel was on it, and right now just because Arlene and Bennet's sons were on it (I had no idea that Kerry Komel would be on it too). The show never did appeal to me so I just never bothered to watch it. But ever since I started watching What's My Line last year and Kerry Komel was born, I have always wondered about something. I heard a disgusting story once and I'm just wondering did Dorothy's husband get along with Kerry?
My God how things have changed ‼️ They gave away a carton of cigarettes to these young people as a prize. I hope none of them had started smoking by this time....
@@wholeNwon Most are deadly. There is no such thing as a side effect: there are only effects. Also, they are leaping over doctors. Most require prescriptions based on doctor's expertise..as well as examination and/or blood work.
This must been the year that Ms. Emerson had departed in favor of Betsy Palmer and the last year Jayne Meadows was on the panel before the arrival of Bess Myerson Garry Moore had that espsicially youthful look until about age 43 . It must have been all those Winstons .
Master Kollmar said the What's my Line panel would of guessed it. How wrong he turned out to be about 10 years later when Peter and John skunked them, al be it with the different form of questioning, and with the person who sent that letter.

I am so surprised at how much I enjoy the really old tapes. Simple times with bare props and real fun.
Jonathan has his fathers sense of humor.
Talented family😊. Bennets nephew developed modern internet!
Notice how Peter watches out for Kerry both upon entering and as they are leaving. Very sweet
Kids were taught to be respectful polite human beings unlike today.
I noticed that, too.
Kerry was tossed out by Kollmar when he found out that he was not his son. Dorothy adored Kerry. Sad story

None one should be surprised that of the three boys, Jonathan Cerf had the smart alec remark. Really channeling his father there.
Jonathan Cerf was also the only one who shook Garry Moore's hand and thanked him.
Bennett Cerf may have given Christopher the line ahead of time.
I love the Levonson brothers at the end. Very talented and funny. Love their relationship with each other.
Thank you most sincerely for all you have done; loved it all!!

Yes, that was quite shocking to learn after I just looked them up. Very sad.
Organ music was quite popular from at least the '50s to the '70s. Besides church services it could be heard in supper clubs, dance halls, ballparks (which is somewhat still common), shopping malls, cruise ships, museums, et cetera. It's such a terrific instrument!
Roller skating rinks across the land featured organists as well.
An organ hit at about that time was The Happy Organ by Dave " Baby" Cortez .
And soap operas.
Long live the Mighty WurliTzer!
I never saw Peter looking more like his mom than in this episode.
I never thought he looked anything like Martin, not even a little.
You need to look at the young photos of Martin before he put on all that weight and lost a lot of his hair.
Love SamLevinson! So many brothers, and one sister! 🙏♥️
What a little cutie that Kerry Kollmar was. : )
Very cute ❤
He looked exactly like his sister Jill.
It is pretty funny the What’s my Line kiddos each got $26.66 apiece. In 1958 that was pretty good money for a kid.
Using an inflation calculator in 2022 USD $26.66 would be $259.36 (an 872.8% increase)!
What a great show ! It made me weep

David Andrews was the nephew of actor Steve Forrest, who was in the original TV show SWAT.
I love Dana Andrews. Especially in State Fair
How times have changed. They would never give out cigarettes as a prize today. Fun to see these old shows.
What can I say but Thank you and what fun!
So sad to hear that David Andrews, the pianist, died just 6 years after this episode.
Shame to read that David Andrews passed away 6 years after this, aged only 31. And Harold Clayton Lloyd, Jr. died aged only 40 in 1971. Both from a cerebral hemorrhage.

How cool - this was from the day I was born!
Just a great fun show. Only crap reality shows on tv today. This why I don’t watch free to air tv
I recognize Betsy Palmer! She played Jason’s mother, Pamela, in the original Friday the 13th film. ❤
Jason Vorhee's mother from Friday the 13th....she's so adorable!

Good grief - two of these lovely young gentlemen died wayyyy too young :(
Henry Morgan throwing out the word "homebody" way back when.
Sadly, Guest #2, David Andrews, passed away in 1964 at the age of just 30.

"That's $20 down - these kids are getting rich!"
David looks a lot like his father.
I wonder if all of them were backstage watching?!
Or in the audience.
Six years after this appearance he died a young man at age 31 of a cerebral hemorrhage.
Talented young man.
@jd_13 said the pianist David Andrews passed 6years after this performance, RIP and condolences to all his family and friends ❤️
Sadly cigarettes were advertised as a good thing back then. If people only knew then what they do now. I enjoy watching the old shows.
Cigarettes back then we're genuine pure tobacco Not after years later with All the additives...
Lorraine is so like her father 😱
Dorthy’s son looks like his father.
David looks his father, Dana.
Harold Lloyd is a Hollywood legend.
Sam Levinson stole the show.
Dorothy's son looks like whom? Dick Kollmar or Johnny Ray? There is some question ...
Dorothy’s son does look like Johnny Ray. She admitted to her husband that Kerry was Johnny’s son, but he kept it quiet until after she died. Kerry knows his parentage now.

Duke Lloyd died in his 30's.
I thought I was old, but I don't recognize any of the famous parents, outside of the What's My Line panel.
Amazing how everyone smoked.. and it was promoted on tv
Good looking kids. They did a great job.
David Andrews died in his 30's.
Jonathon was right, the WML panel didn’t get them when he and Peter were on the show 😂
harry morgan laughed LOL
You mean "Henry Morgan"
It figures that Benet Cerf's son was the one who said the What My Line panel would have guessed it. Chip off the ole bock.
Kids should have gotten candy cigarettes 😊😊
Awwwww Kerry Kollmar (Should be Kerry RAY) is soooo adorable. Poor baby lost his mommy way too soon.
David nephew & father are alive in after his death
