I've been crocheting for 50 years and there's no way I could crochet that doily in less than an hour. I'm totally impressed.
8:25 Thanks for your service. He's a pack of Marlboro for your efforts. Wow, how times have changed😂😂😂
My mothers 22nd birthday here. I was born in Oct the next year.😊
Ralph Bellamy, a great actor and director.
Great comments here~ thx everyone for the research ~ esp on Bob Phillips
One oddball thing about this ep. Game #3, I immediately eliminated Bob Phillips #1 because I knew that that man was an actor in many TV shows, westerns, etc... that I've seen, often as a hit man, villain, cop, etc... Turns out he's Bob Phillips, but also Robert Phillips who began acting in 1952 and continued to do so for a few decades in many projects up to 1997! I guess he honed his acting skills as an undercover man and then parlayed it into a paying screen career. Yet he didn't appear on "Tightrope!"
Very interesting.
I thought he looked familiar. Now that I read this I did a search and immediately recognized his small part in an episode of Star Trek.
Mike Connors played the starring role in "Tightrope".
Bud is so diplomatic and great at putting a positive spin on things. Polly was upset with the crochet champion for giving an answer to her made up question and asked him about it at the end. After the poor man, whom didn’t seem all that educated gave his reply, Bud said, “An honest attempt to tell the truth, sometimes it just comes out the wrong way.” Bud knew the man wasn’t intentionally trying to mislead and said the perfect thing to smooth the waters. Polly could understand that and the man didn’t have to feel bad about it.
She's a sore loser.
@@paulineschuurman4970 She was kidding. Her persona is mostly a bit.
One of the best answers in the history of the show at 2:46
SPOLIER: Based on name pronunciation alone, #2 is definitely not the Brazilian. She messed up the "lh" in Magalhães.
Yes. I guessed the right person based on her Brazilian accent.
Contestant 2 in game 2 had a nice face. Ralph Houk would go on to manage the Yankees to several World Series Championships. It helped that he had Maris and Mantle batting in his lineup and Whitey Ford in his rotation.
Ralph Houk also managed the Detroit Tigers.
@@davidfritz1331 Indeed he did.
The vet didn’t come across as knowing much. Could it have been a language barrier? I thought the real person had to tell the truth!
The vets had such thick accents, plus my cell is small so I couldn't hear enough to answer.
I'm surprised the undercover guy wasn't disguised to protect his identity.

Man #1 in Game #1
Lady #1 in Game #2
Man #1 in Game #3
I'm glad Polly's game one trick failed, even if the real guy screwed up his answer. That gambit is so tired, annoying and lame anyway. (As if Polly would have had the slightest clue who the World Champion Crocheter was 3 or 4 years prior...!)
Polly took that schtick from Hy Gardner.
It looks as if Kitty Carlisle was also upset with the way game #1 ended. I have noticed in other episodes, that the panel will "write off" the "slower" contestants. The question from Polly was a set up, glad it backfired.
You get a carton of cigarettes! You get a carton of cigarettes! You get a carton of cigarettes!
Mind blowing they didn't know of
"The Black Dahlia"
They may have. Remember the imposters do not have to tell the truth.
@@Walterwhiterocks Um ... the point of the game is to fool the panel.
@@63utuber Obviously.
The real man wasn't asked. The imposters were asked and must have lied about not knowing.
The third game: The real Bob Phillips escaped me (no pun intended) because he looked too much like a a hit-man...
Maria Ângela Magalhães de Oliveira
I’ve researched the series tightrope and there’s no mention of bob Phillips Maybe that’s why he could make sense of the questions. Was this a fraud contestant 🤔
I wonder if he gave a fake name on TTTT in case there was a chance that someone from the underworld might come after him.
Wikipedia: Actor Robert Phillips, a former Los Angeles undercover policeman and US Marine claimed the show was based on his exploits but was he was not chosen to portray himself.[2]
Yankees were 79-75 in 1959.
What am I suppose to do with that information ?
@@joeambrose3260 Who said you had to "do" anything with it ? Just take it for what it's worth. At least PensiveOwl didn't ramble on and on with information few care about ala Lois Simmons on these pages.
@@Walterwhiterocks The Cleveland Spiders were 20 - 134 in 1899.
Happy now ?
@@joeambrose3260 I was happy before, but thanks anyway.
And Ralph was rude and disrespectful to number 1 and she turned out to be the real veterinarian. Haha
Polly is sometimes delightful and other times quite annoying
Who on Gods green earth is Peter Donald ?
He was a west coast MC known for Masquerade Party.
Peter Donald is perhaps best remembered, if at all, for being one of the regulars on radio's FRED ALLEN SHOW. He played an Irish character called Ajax Cassidy, one of the denizens of Allen's Alley. His talent with dialects also served him well on CAN YOU TOP THIS? where he was resident joke teller. He did an immense amount of other radio work, starting in the late 20s and must have often crossed paths in those days with Bud (Superman) Collyer.
Did you notice that? He offers them a stupid gift of cigarettes (which I would be HIGHLY insulted if he did that to me); but he offers them cigarettes, and then he's like, "well back after an important message about your health."
Just doing his job
So wonderful to hear your virtue signalling. I don't smoke, but I would be highly insulted if you would impart your unilateral opinions to me. You would do it once.
Nobody cares about what offends or insults you.
