Elizabeth Montgomery v. Jim Backus on Password Day 3, part 2

Beautiful Elizabeth Montgomery on her third day playing "Password" with funny man Jim Backus which originally aired on Wednesday, December 14, 1966 on CBS.
Liz is best known as Samantha from "Bewitched". Jim is best known as Mr. Howell from "Gilligan's Island" and the voice of Mr. Magoo. The two appeared together in the feature film "Johnny Cool" where Liz met her third husband William Asher, who was the main director and co-producer of "Bewitched".
Many of the outfits Liz wore on "Password" she also wore on "Bewitched."

She is sharp as a tack!

Kevin Hendryx Yes she was!!!! Allen Ludden called Elizabeth the "Queen" of Password. She sooooo deserved that moniker! Practically every contestant that plays with her wins! I wish sooooo much that I could've played s game with her. Elizabeth was and is fabulous!!!! I love and miss her soooooo much!

GSN has made it very hard for celebs today..
It allows us to see how intelligent "celebrities" used to be.
Cultural context:
Elizabeth Montgomery and Jim Backus were concurrently on two extremely successful shows at this moment, she, on "Bewitched," (ABC) he, on "Gilligan's Island" (CBS).
This game show, hosted by Allen "Mr. Betty White" Ludden, started out on CBS, and ended up on ABC.

Elizabeth Montgomery was SO beautiful. She passed away way too young.

$300 was a lot in '66

[@kotapaka]

300 dollars back then must have been a lot of money.

Liz would get so excited at times that she'd use her hands. In giving clues for LOVE, she almost slipped. 🙂 On BEWITCHED, we can see her doing crossword puzzles on a couple of ocassions. That may be where she honed her word skills.

[@kerrykeene6471]

Icky as a clue for mud. Classic Liz, I think. She could always come with some word as a clue to go along with other clues. 🙂
Liz did use her hands a bit.

Elizabeth Montgomery: Beautiful, Brainy and FAST! :)

A couple of illegal clues not buzzed during the lightning rounds; 2 word clues were appearing unbuzzed.

ADODDLE DOOOOOO!

[@RavenGeorge]

LOL They tried to make her go to rehab but she said, "No, no, no!"

[@wmlfan9]

I wonder why Allen says "roughly a form of the word". It's not roughly a form of the word, it IS a form of the word.

[@turquoise770]

[@superbewitched]

[@m.e.d.7997]

I love Elizabeth Montgomery and she is a good player but she breaks the rules often. Not good.

[@m.oriley8260]

What a dunce Liz was paired with on the second round.

[@loge10]

The question is, would you do any better especially when sitting across from Elizabeth Montgomery? 🙄
