Hey this was recorded on June 4, 1967. I was born that Sunday night after my beautiful mom had been in labor since Saturday night. I'm 53 yrs young and have recently come across this show and love it. I can't get enough of it. Thank you so much for posting.👍
It's interesting to see how people looked at the time of your birth, isn't it?
Welcome to the family! If you're on Facebook, check out the WML group linked in the video description above.
I saw Jack Jones perform for his 80th bday at the renowned Catalina Bar and Grill in Hollywood CA. His voice was incredibly beautiful with an amazing range.
Jean Shrimpton was stunning.
And quite shy,even moreso in later years 🎩❤️
She was like wow and her style was quite contemporary
I was in a jury pool with Pia Lindstrom about 20 years ago, and she was warm and friendly.
Pia Lindstrom : what a perfect pun for Bennett! "If I could choose any man at random..."
Jack Jones so handsome, classy, generational voice. For those who listened heard the very best, thank you mr. Jones.
The 1960's were easily the best decade when it came to British women of the entertainment industry. Not only was there Jean Shrimpton, but there was also Jane Asher, Jane Birkin, Honor Blackman, Jacqueline Bissett, Pattie Boyd, Julie Christie, Petula Clark, Barbara Ferris, Judy Geeson, Susan George, Suzy Kendall, Sarah Miles, Marianne Faithfull, Hayley Mills, Charlotte Rampling, Vanessa and Lynn Redgrave, Diana Rigg, Dusty Springfield, Rita Tushingham, Twiggy, and Susannah York, just to name a few.
Thumbs up if you agree with me.
I absolutely agree , but , please do not leave out Hayley's beautiful sister , the lovely Juliet , who I had a crush on , as a teen .
Can you name any recommendable *red-headed* ones among those British girls for me?; neither strawberry blonde nor auburn, but 100% redheads.
hugh0221 Lynn Redgrave and Diana Rigg were red-headed.
And also Anna Quayle, who played Evie et al. in both the original British production of and the original Broadway production of "Stop The World - I Want To Get Off." Also Eleanor Bron, lest I forget.
jmccracken1963 And I can't believe I forgot this one: Shani Wallis, who starred in "Oliver!".
Jack Jones is still with us (as of August 23, 2023) and is 85 years old.
I remember Jack Jones as the singer of the original rendition of The Love Boat theme.
Loved that theme song.
Jack Jones did an excellent imitation of Walter Brennan! He sounded just like him!
He was so handsome, too, and I loved his rendition of the Love Boat theme song.
I think this is the first episode where they acknowledge the show is ending.
And speaking of which...
...Jean Shrimpton. One of the leading British female models of Swinging Sixties Britain, along with Twiggy. Pretty much the one who put the miniskirt on the map, and also the first lady to be dubbed a "Supermodel" by the press.
Jean was so classically beautiful. Twiggy not so much
@VahanNisanian
Actually, the extraordinary Lisa Fonssagrives was the first to be widely known as a 'Supermodel' in the early 1950s.
th-cam.com/users/shortsOBThhmfPeb8?feature=share
She also had a good sense of humor, describing herself as a "good clothes hanger".
She modeled into her 40s and subsequently worked successfully as a photographer, clothing designer and sculptor.
I never realised Jack Jones was Allan Jones' son. No wonder he can sing! ❤🎤🎶
Mr Smith looked so naughty like he is a very funny grandfather hahahaha. Loved his handwriting.
You didn’t mention Jack Jones and amazing star ⭐️ both in the UK and USA plus all over the world, Jack has performed in almost every country in the world.
Beautiful Miss Jean Shrimpton is 81 yrs young.
Pia Lindstrom is still with us (as of August 23, 2023) and is 84 years old.
And so is Jean shrimpton and living in Cornwall not to forget David Bailey
Jack Jones was one of the celebrities playing "Password" around this same time (the week of 6/26-6/30/67 with Joan Fontaine).
What a nice dress on Arlene. She was the epitome of class and naughtiness!
She was on the board of dept store Bonwit-Teller. No doubt showcasing their evening wear.
Jack Jones flew under the radar even with two Grammies, performing much of his time in Europe, San Francisco, and New York ....many say that JJ had the most gifted singing pipes in the business( frank Sinatra was quoted saying that) ....Jack performed middle of the road standards, later in life traveled the globe singing jazz and the American song book. Jack was considered a man of grace and elegance both in mannerism and in good looks. No one looked as stunning as JJ in a tuxedo and black bow tie . In his prime singing days 1966-1985 Jack stood alone as a straight up no nonsense singer, he touched peoples hearts in many ways, possessing a fabulous style and sound that always resembled his own person looks, stylish and grace, in many ways dreamy. I believe he is a legend in Europe, if not for the Beetles Jack would have won 7-9 Grammies ....he was sandwiched Between Elvis and the Beetles making it difficult to become a house hold name, nevertheless many consider Jack the purest soloist of our generation. His concerts and night club performances were notorious and spectacular. It was no secret famed Jerry Lewis was Jack’s favorite singer and even a Dean Martin and Sammy Davis we’re in somewhat awe of Jack’s brilliant pipes .
At the risk of being presumptuous, did you mean to say that Jack was Jerry Lewis's favorite singer rather than the other way around?
Paul Dance I agree wholeheartedly - I had the good fortune of meeting and interviewing Jack. His performance later was excellent. His voice was thrilling and he hit those notes with the utmost of ease! Judy Garland at one point considered him better than her main singing partner Mel Torme.
Jack Jones is truly one of the greatest singers ever. I recommend watching him perform ' Live for Life ' on Jerry Lewis ' s show in 1968 and ' Wives and Lovers ' in Vietnam, 1965, on tour with Bob Hope both found on youtube. But I warn you, it might be emotional for those of us who remember those times.
Without Dorothy this show was never the same.
No, it wasn't. It might have been better if the show had chosen a permanent replacement rather than rotating guests.
Dorothy was the best listener on the show. She asked perfect follow-up questions.
I think the program went along just fine
The times themselves were a-changing during 1966 and 67, and the original WML was running on fumes of the old era.
She definitely added her own special touch, that no one could duplicate.
What a drag is Henry Morgan. I thought they were rid of him LONG before and they bring him back.
poetcomic1 It's incredible isn't it? I have to be honest...I LOVE this show BUT, over the seventeen year span of programmes that I've watched, I've had to tolerate what seems like a LOT of awful guest panellists drawn from American television entertainment. I wish Steve Allen could've been on every week.
Jean looks shy here. But I can't really blame her 100%. She was from Britain, and she was not as used to her American fanbase, as she was to her British fanbase. American and British audiences tend to behave very differently.
The movie that Jean Shrimpton was about to co-star in but John failed to name was called Privilege (1967), the story of a British pop idol who becomes a victim of his escalating celebrity. Both Jean and British pop singer Paul Jones made their movie debuts. The film failed at the box office and is seldom.seen. Jean only made one other film after this.
" The Shrimp" was a dish. Jack Jones was what my mother referred to as "dreamy."
Jean became known in Australia for the shortness of her mini dress at the Melbourne Cup.
Beautiful
Jack Jones did a great job with the accents. He was very handsome and I love his version of The Love Boat. ❤🛥️
Jean Shrimpton now. From a few years ago. Her eyes look a tad scrunched (must have been the photographer constantly following her), but other than that, she looks really good. One of the most beautiful square-jawed women out there.
www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1386512/Sixties-star-Jean-Shrimpton-snapped-Cornwall.html
Recently, Karen Gillan portrayed her in the film "We'll Take Manhattan" (2012), and Jean Shrimpton herself actually congratulated her.
Jack Jones had many hits on the Adult Contemporary chart including three that hit #1. But his best showing on the Billboard 100 was "Wives and Lovers" which only reached #14. The song has fallen so out of favor now that there isn't even a Wikipedia article about it. The lyrics, quite normal for a romantic song in 1963, are totally politically incorrect now. He didn't write the song. He just sang it. It was written by the team of Burt Bacharach (music) and Hal David (lyrics). So you know the totality of his lyric writing, David was also the lyricist for such hits as "Alfie", "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head", "This Guy's in Love with You", "I'll Never Fall in Love Again", "Do You Know the Way to San Jose?", "Walk on By", "What the World Needs Now is Love", "I Say a Little Prayer", "(There's Always Something There to Remind Me", "One Less Bell to Answer", "Anyone Who Had a Heart", "What's New Pussycat?", "The Look of Love", "Don't Make Me Over", and "(They Long to Be) Close to You". Most of his biggest hits were sung by women, principally Dionne Warwick.

Sometimes I'll look up what the weather was for these airings. Here it is for June 4, 1967:
High: 85°F / 30°C
Low: 61°F / 16°C
Rain: 0 in. / 0 cm.
At the age of 77, jack jones still has that dapper look!

Can't stand Henry Morgan's attitude on this show, but the presence of Pia Lindstrom and Jean Shrimpton do make up for that.
On his previous appearance, I think Henry Morgan was introduced humorously as a curmudgeon, and being a curmudgeon was definitely his shtick. I wouldn't mind if this were his final appearance on WML because I, too, couldn't stand him in this episode. I'll take Robert Q. Lewis any day of the week -- he may be unctuous, but I find his questioning less annoying than Henry Morgan's.
ToddSF 94109 I'm a staunch defender of Robert Q. I like him, and don't find his unctuousness all that unctuous, actually. And unlike Mr. Morgan, he at least attempted to be charming. Morgan's curmudgeonly behavior somehow worked well within the context of I've Got A Secret, and with the chemistry of that show's panel, but it struck a discordant note when he was shoehorned into WML as a guest panelist.
I find Mr Morgan to be like fingernails on a chalkboard. he makes a horrible joke and didnt seem to be at all interested in making any attempt at being effective.
I know I am in the minority but somehow I like Henry Morgan as a panelist, but on the other hand I liked Milton Berle too. :)
I actually hadn't minded Henry Morgan so much in his past appearances, but this time he really was obnoxious. I have noticed Robert Q. Lewis's unctuousness in the past, after people pointed it out. I never minded it as much as some apparently have. There was hardly any of that during Robert Q.'s most recent appearance on WML and I've always found him perfectly acceptable as a guest panelist -- which is one of the things he did on a lot of game shows back in the day. In fact, that's what I grew up knowing him as, a guest panelist.
Jean and Jack are still around.
Sadly, Bennet Cerf guessed the celebrities far too quickly which ruined the fun for the audience. Jean Shrimpton was a beautiful and modest model who never made it in films.
Boy, Pia was checking out Jack as he exited.
They would have made a good-looking couple.
So was I 😍
What in heaven's name went on between Henry, Pia, and John over that station ID? You would think it would be easy to get four letters correct, Henry.
thanx for info.
As Pia Lindstrom mentioned, her employer in 1967 was KGO-TV, the network-owned ABC affiliate in San Francisco. The erroneously stated KABC-TV is the ABC-owned affiliate in Los Angeles. To this day, when I watch the KGO news, they will often make reference to a story reported by "our sister station KABC in Los Angeles".
As an aside, I think I understand why some inanimate objects (e.g. ships) are assigned a gender. I wonder, however, why a radio or TV station would be assigned a female gender. I've never heard the term "our brother station". Not a complaint, just curiosity.
@@loissimmons6558 I'll be up half the night pondering this, Lois!
@@robbob1234 :-D
It's that I know more of the stars from the 40's and 50s than I do of the stars from the 60's on WML.
That is probably because stars of the 40s and 50s that were flash in the pan were not later on WML. Only the big stars from that era and remained stars tended to be on the show. In the 1960s they took chances on celebs who were starting out and had staying power like Michael Caine and Woody Allen and others who had no staying power.
I wonder if Walter Brennen (I think Steve McQueen did it best) was the most popular phony voice for MG? Jack Jones does a nice job.
Jack Jones was a pleasant surprise. Not that I thought he would do a poor job, but his impressions were good. Especially the Walter Brennan voice.
One of the best actors of the time, William Holden, failed miserably when he tried to do a Walter Brennan impersonation on WML.
Mr Paul Smith, the tent maker, was a wonderful, engaging contestant. A real gentleman.
Everyone was either a gentleman or woman during those times.
Not the rudeness you see today.

SuperWinterborn As we speak written downly. I am making canvas. It will be ready in 15 years. YEEHAW!
+Joe Postove
That is most unrealistic for all intents and purposes.
I would guess that the significance of a tent maker named Paul was better appreciated by the audience in 1967 than by people watching today. (St. Paul the apostle was a tent maker; I suspect that connection explains the level of applause at Mr. Smith's occupation.)
Henry Morgan in Pocatello Idaho sounds like the set up for "The Man Who Came to Dinner." I can picture his companion saying after the show [and this is from "Sweethearts"] "There is not a light on in his entire town." Yeah, Henry would say, "Most people sleep at night. It is so unresourceful of them."
WML as an institution has been in denial for months that CBS has cancelled it. Tonight seems to be the acceptance stage of the grief process what with Bennett announcing the end of John the moderator and the start of John the Voice of America Director. It was a job that did not pan out.
soulierinvestments Just to clarify for those who might not know-- the job did pan out to the extent that he did take the role of head of VOA after WML, but it only lasted about a year. John resigned when he learned that personnel changes were being made without his input, and was more or less out of the public entirely for the rest of his life with very few exceptions.
And it is hard to tell if John had hung on at VOA for the change of the Johnson Administration into the Nixon Administration if things would have been any better in The New Order.
***** I think I'm going to be posting it in two versions: one as originally broadcast, with the original commercials added back in to the high quality GSN rerun, and one without commercials where I'm going to edit out the horrible bits of black video between clips. The pacing of the clip sequences is all but ruined by this editing choice in 1975. I can't believe it played well to anyone then, but to today's eyes, it's beyond amateurish.
I figure I'll post two versions to circumvent the inevitable complaints if I only post a version I've tinkered around with. I've already seen at least a couple of people say they want to see it as it was originally broadcast. Though to be perfectly honest, the way it was originally edited for broadcast is just godawful.
Back in 1975, amateur and / or godawful editing would have actually been an improvement of probably two minutes.
soulierinvestments The special is a full 2 minutes shorter than the original just by virtue of removing the bits of black. 2 full minutes out of about 70 minutes of total video is bits of black between clips. That's how bad it is.
Jack Jones's father Allan Jones. Allan has one of the more amusing connection to the Marx Brothers: being featured in "A Night at the Opera" (MGM 1935) so that, in the immortal words of producer Irving Thalberg, regular people will have someone to identify with. [What People?!?] Allan's voice also came out of Dennis Morgan's face in the "A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody" production number of "The Great Ziegfeld" (MGM 1936) -- arguably the longest and most berserk dance number in 1930s musical film.
Don't forget his second Marx Bros. film, "A Day at the Races" (MGM, 1937), including the song "Tomorrow Is Another Day" whose title presumably riffs on the famous closing line of the novel "Gone With the Wind" (1936 book, 1939 movie).
Allan Jones had the unenviable task of replacing Zeppo in the male straight man role. But there was no way he could match the decades of comedic timing that Zeppo had developed with his brothers.
th-cam.com/video/_2LqmcjIeMU/w-d-xo.html
Henry Morgan had a rakish quality. He's not everyone's cup of tea.
Nahhhh he's just a git!
I always liked Henry, but I can see how some people didn't.
JACK & I WERE IN THE SERVICE..SF
Trying not to look at the contestant's "line" when flashed on the screen.
Fashion Model Jean Shrimpton: I vaguely remember Jean but she did look like a model or "mod" type woman. Of all people to figure her out it was Bennett Cerf.
P A U L H. S M I T H: He took his time writing that name of his. Before Arlene was done with her 1st round of questioning, I look at this man I thought he was some type of food man or some sort. What is with Henry Morgan being so long winded. At one point when they honed in on camping or hunting I thought he might be a descendant of "Smith" or "Smith & Wesson"!
Jack Jones: My favorite song of his; "With One More Look At You." His father is Actor/Singer Allan Jones and his mother is Irene Hervey. My favorite wife of his; Jill St. John!
Andrea Ritchie: The Motorcycle Saleswoman. Oh well, that's what she did for a living!
And, she, too, is a left-handed mystery guest.
This episode illustrates one of the most difficult and rarely-discussed aspects of John Daly's job: timing the show. Being a live program with fairly long segments that couldn't be interrupted (unlike, say, the usual talk show), he had only a few tools with which to control the flow: he could set a time limit for the panel if they were wandering, he could prematurely flip the cards, and he could choose how long to chat with a contestant after the game was finished. Here he flips all cards for the tentmaker; if he had wanted to stretch the segment, he could have forced the panel to be more specific after Bennett hit the general area. At the end of the second MG segment, he faced a common dilemma: should he keep Jack Jones talking for a couple more minutes, or should he move on for a very short final segment? His batting average on these calls was very good. In this case, given that Jones wasn't very talkative and the backup contestant had a fun occupation, he went for the fourth spot -- a good decision.
I think his constant need to keep an eye on the clock is part (though only part) of the reason John so disliked allowing contestants to demonstrate their specialties. Once they start, who knows how long it will take? The few cases where he agreed to allow demonstrations were cases (e.g. the Salvation Army Band, the calypso group) where the length of the performance could be known in advance so he could take that into account.
dizzyology I agree with you in this. John had a lot of dilemmas regarding time and value to fight with. Not an easy task. His innate diplomatic skills and clear mind helped a lot to the long run of the show. I remember another occasion, when two students, working as garbage collectors, were given time to perform their own song. I suspect he had already heard them backstage because they did it quite well. :)
SuperWinterborn
Yes, the singing garbage collectors are another example. Their song was brief, they sang well, and (most important) John knew in advance exactly low long it would take, and could plan on using that time. Even so, if time had been tight he might not have allowed the song.
John had to work against two strong forces to keep demonstrations under control: Arlene (who frequently requested them), and Gil Fates, who would have liked to run the show along the lines of IGAS or the syndicated version of WML. John's judgment about when to hold the line and when to relax the restrictions was excellent, IMO.
dizzyology Besides WML 1950-67 being an excellent show and our TH-cam "Host of Honour" Gary's talent as monitor on these pages, John Daly was my main reason to get hooked on this series. Steve Allen became the next favourite, although I like them all. :)
SuperWinterborn
Agreed on both counts. The CBS WML was very much John's show. Gil Fates grumbles about that in his book, while our own host Gary celebrates the fact. I join the celebration -- I sadly admit that I'm old enough to have watched some of these programs when they were first broadcasst, and I admired John even back then. Steve was an excellent panelist -- even quicker with snappy comebacks than Arlene (and that's saying quite a lot). I think G-T would have been happy to keep Steve as a permanent panelist, but he had ambitions of his own that didn't fit that script very well. Still, he was a welcome guest panelist, and it's significant that he was pulled in for both "In Memoriam" shows (for Fred A and for Dorothy) as well as for the final broadcast episode. And the night when Steve was a MG and John blew it and gave away his identity was one of WML's classic moments.
dizzyology Steve was, in any sense of the word, a good man. :)
Bennett , Jean is much more lovely than Twiggy !!!
Twiggy was built like a boy. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
+Barry G
I believe that Bennett was expressing the same opinion.
Imagine she wasn't thin enough for everyone, Twiggy skeleton that she was. I'll take Jean anytime👍
Was Twiggy the one who ushered in the anorexic models?
What Bennett is referring to is pia lindstroms mom is Ingrid Bergman
Jean's similar-looking sister, Chrissie, once dated Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger.

I gots a crush on Mr Jones.
And i have for Pia
Had what's my line stayed on air in 1967 they would be looking for a new host
That presumes that Daly would have taken that government job even if WML had not been canceled. Dubious.
JCD was always so busy with ABC and other ventures in the past. I think he would have been able to take on the new position without surrendering his Sunday nights?
I miss Dorothy
Does John Daley get financial kickbacks or some type of benefits every time he mentions going to Tilton school in NH? He finds a way to bring them up so often, it's not at all natural. He's pushing it too hard.
Second segment "will you enter after you have signed in please on the blackboard with the white chalk" PLEASE! If he does that on the last show, I'm afraid (and I hate to say this) that I'll have grab John out of the computer and pummel him a little.
Joe Postove Well he said the same thing for seventeen years. Can't he have fun with it up a bit?
I'd like to pummel Henry Moron. He's such an obnoxious arse.
The thing is people complained at the time that he said it the same way so many years....... I personally loved that and don't care for that specific change
I think Ms. Shrimpton resembles the younger Julie London.
There is no lack of people who channel Jack E. Leonard. Henry Morgan starts to do his routine at about 13:20!
Not very well though haha
Jean attended the 1965 Melbourne Cup and created a controversy. The scandals made all the news headlines on TV and in the Newspapers.
She was described as being provocatively attired because she was wearing a dress that was about 3 inches longer the the one she's wearing on WML.
John Daly quit the Voice of America.
Two episodes done that night, with the first one they did airing on August 20, 1967, with twice the Henry Morgan, before that episode where he acted so rudely to Bennett (July 9).
So tonight sets up bad attitude between Henry and John. The episode broadcast on 20 August featured something between Henry and Bennett that indicated bad attitude as well. It is now all in place for 9 July.
Was that 20 August 1967 episode the first time (and, as it turned out, the only time) that a black woman was a guest panelist on the CBS "What's My Line"?
jmccracken1963 Yes.
+jmccracken1963
You've received a "yes" and a "no", so I will add a "maybe". There are times when it sounded like Carol Channing admitted having a parent with black ancestry and there are times when she was dismissing the idea. And of course she did not identify as black at the point in her life when she was a panelist on the original run of WML.
Morgan had a real edge about him.
Cerf was such a lech
I think Bennet Cerf should have disqualified himself in the first round because he knew Jean Shrimpton was 'in town' and didn't need to ask questions. By naming her so quickly, this episode had to fill in time at the end by bringing on the motorbike saleswoman for just 2 minutes. Mr Cerf was a good panellist but sometimes tried to show off his knowledge about places and what they were famous for as well as setting up laborious puns which today sound lame. He is funniest to me when he gets something wrong and looks annoyed or when John Daly outwits him and gets to an insult first.

Thanks! I'll be posting it with the original ABC commercials added back in.
lol u mean cbs? ;0)
vintagetvandexciting No, I meant ABC. The special aired on ABC, not CBS.
ohhh thought u meant the series finale, i didnt know u meant "whats my line at 25"
vintagetvandexciting Darnit, that's cause I misinterpreted you. You did say "finale" not the "WML at 25" special. . . ! In any event, the finale, too, will have the original commercials added back in-- from CBS. :) Sorry about misunderstanding. Answering too many comments too quickly!
Quite a long introduction by Henry Morgan who made an ass of himself in a later show by interrupting Bennett. He upset John Daly too. Kinda sad to have that in the final season of the show but what a show it was.
I hate him
Goodness, it's just so frustrating to see John dilly dally with some of the contestants in jibber jabber taking up valuable time, and then that poor last contestant often has around sixty seconds. Some of these people have traveled hundreds or thousands of miles (like the chiropractor in Alaska that time). I'm so surprised the producers didn't budget their time more constructively.
I agree 100%. I hated when they would rush the final contestant. I don’t think it was at all appropriate or considerate.
Jean could pass for a young Ozzy Osbourne
U can really see its a wig ...
See Wikipedia re jJohn Daly
I've seen every episode so far. The show has become so predictable it stopped being interesting a good while ago. "...Have you appeared in the paper this week...?" All week, the panelists scan the entertainment pages to see who is in town that week. They memorize a list of names, and all they do is go down that list. Then comes the frozen-smile fest. omg how did they know it was me...?
And there used to be a much more interesting range of guests with different backgrounds, from scientists to military persons to writers etc. Now it's nothing but show biz personalities.
And what is up with Daly? He has been tripping over his words for months. "...please sign in, after you've entered, come in now, use the chalk, mumble mumble..." He got a guest's name wrong a few weeks earlier. He has gotten information incorrect about guests and their 'lines', products, company names, etc. And, almost every time, he has to ask, tediously, the guest if he has their name correct. Seriously? What's up with him?
Ummm why watch? Don't answer that..... It's a free country 😂
Henry Morgan. He makes me laugh sometimes. If G-T wanted questioning that generates laughs, they got their money's worth tonight. But we also see the foundation being laid for the nastiness between Henry, John, and Bennett in the future. also taking into account that the episode videotaped on this night which showed up on 20 August indicated some preliminary attitude between Henry and Bennett -- everything for 9 July is now in place
soulierinvestments Can't wait!! (I've seen the segment I think you're referring to in an 'awkward WML moments' compilation but I'm nearly at the end if watching them all chronologically....so I can't rush forward to it).
Has there ever been a contestant who shoveled manure for a living?
Henry Morgan wasted time with foolishness! How sad..
Hated him
Jack Jones is a nice looking man but he's no me.
😂
If what's my line had not been cancelled I am sure John Daly would been replaced by someone else
We will never know and I am not sure why you say that. But if the show had not been canceled and John had been replaced, the show probably would have been canceled.
