Putting the word "miser" in the game with Jack in the game absolutely hilarious😆😆😆😆😆
I was expecting skinflint as a clue.
He certainly acts like one lol.
If Jack Benny was my father, I would have been smiling every minute of every day. From everything I read about him, he was a sweetheart.
Joan was super smart and pretty.
I agree with you, Susie. :).
Yes, but apparently his wife was quite difficult and argumentative. Their daughter, Joan, was adopted. Joan had good things to say about Jack, but not so much about Mary.
@@verity3616 The book Jack was working on (which he said was going to be called "I've Always Had Shoes") was finished by Joan and called "Sunday Nights at Seven" (referring to the start time of his radio show). She said that Mary was not the warmest person and that she was very jealous of Gracie Allen because of the gifts George Burns gave her
You can make The Almighty God your FATHER and be smiling as you stated. See and meditate on 2Corinthians 6:14-18. HE is my DADDYGOD-JESUS indeed!!!
I wished these people were still around. I sure enjoyed Jack Benny and his daughter. This game had me in stitches laughing!
Indeed. This was a particularly funny episode! Wonderful to see comedy icon Jack & his lovely & talented daughter as guest stars!
Jack's daughter was adopted. She wrote a great biography about growing up with this famous man.
I had forgotten about that.
@@annemccarron2281 I read her biography, titled "Sunday Nights at Seven" but its a little like an autobiography, Jack
added a few things to it.
"Sunday Nights At Seven" was the unfinished memoir of Jack Benny, written by Jack and Joan Benny. The Foreward was written by Benny's good friend George Burns.
@@bigsky1970 Nice! Thx 👍
Whew, thought it was going to be a book saying negativity…
Best Password ever. Love Jack and Joan.
I love Joan and Jack also. This segment was so entertaining 💕
My sentiments exactly!
Jack Benny was one of those old-school comedians who built so much of his comedy around a well-established persona, which he constantly and brilliantly played off of - the vain skinflint / cheapskate that sucked at violin. Notice, his quips are typically very short, expertly timed, and often punctuated by how well he used his voice in conjunction with his physical mannerisms and reactions. He always seemed very relaxed and as familiar as one's own dad.
When I was young I wished he was my grandpa.
You could not have described who he was as professional any better. His persona was quite the opposite. His tip was always much higher than most. He gave gracefully to his causes. He And his wife adopted Joan, I believe ,when she was three days old. Joan loved both her parents very much, but she said once in an interview that she was a daddy's girl. As you can tell, I believe they were good parents.
Jack Benny (nee Benjamin Kubelsky) was a master of the slow burn.
Wonderfully well said and well put! Thank you for a refreshingly articulate & thoughtful comment!
Jack Benny was hilarious! I had never seen his daughter before. Cool.
When Jack looked up at Allen ludden after getting the clue miser it's almost as if his face was saying are you kidding me? Lol
Yes! Priceless!
When Joan Benny said "Hoe", and there was no reaction from the audience, it hit me just how much America has changed.
and not for the better!
Exactly.
Absolutely
Exactly.. this is back when peoples minds werent always in the gutter
Joan was such a beauty. Sadly, she passed on June 10, 2021 -- just a week before her 87th birthday. RIP Joan.
RIP Joan Benny (June 10, 2021) She passed away days before her 87th birthday.
Aww, she was only 28 here.
Glad to learn she had a long life. ⌛
Thank you for leaving the commercials in. I feel like I've gone back in time.
I liked the ads too, especially the Lady Remington, with the "special" on-and-off switch! LOL
Yes, the ads were a lovely trip down memory lane.
Agree completely!
Miss Mr. BENNY.
First time seeing him outside his role on stage. To see him in the role was a surprise. He played it nicely. I chose "me" , so did he. Funnyman.
I usually do not like comedians on Password, because so often in trying wayyyy too hard to be funny, they often disrupt and sabotage the flow of the game. And they often wreck the game for their playing partners. However, because Jack Benny is my own personal favorite comedian of all time, and because he is just so loveable; I really enjoyed his little antics on this show!
"There isn't a day I don't say fabric!" lol
The lovely Joan Benny just passed this year, 2021. One week shy of her 87th birthday. Pancreatic cancer.
Same type of cancer the killer her beloved father back in Dec of 1974. He was 80 when he passed.
With original commercials like the NOOB. This ROCKS! Thanks for uploading!!
Love the cigar commercial!
"Why,I'm not a day over..........thirty-nine" LOL
Gotta love Jack Benny
As Snagglepuss would say, "Indubitably!"
The money doesn't sound like much in 2020 but after the first game + lightning round $500 would add up to $4,200 today.
Thank you for these posts. I am magically projected back in time to my youth and as a result, my soul is uplifted. Thanks
Wonderful episode! Thanx for sharing with us! The male contestant ended up winning 900 bucks. That was a LOT of money in 1962!
Love Jack Benny!One of the Dutchmasters looks like the actor William Christopher who played Father Mulcahy on Mash the tv series.
“MISER” / “ME” is pretty classic.
That ranks #1. #2 was Alan King doing a bonus game where the word was "Comedian". He said "Me", partner said "Ham"
Third would be Bob Denver getting stumped on "Skipper"
Thank you so much !!!! These are so special and leaving the commercials in 😊❤️
I think it was no accident that "Miser" was one of the passwords used on this episode.
Probably the funniest episode of the original "Password".
When he said ME I almost died laughing !! So funny. 🎯
Thank you for posting this. I loved it! I'm a huge Jack Benny fan and it was delightful to watch! God Bless You.
Seems like they were giving more money to the contestants on the earlier shows? Jack Benny is a hoot.
Benny seemingly couldn't catch a break, but his remarks were a riot.
Jack, a riot as always
John Harlan, chuckling, as he reads the password, @ 6:40, is priceless, as is Jack's clue.
I believe Jack Clark was the announcer on the original CBS version. John Harlan announced the 1971-75 ABC version.
The Announcer was Jack Clark
He Was Also the Announcer on SPLIT SECOND, TATTLETALES, SECOND CHANCE, THE NEW $25,000 PYRAMID, and WHEEL OF FORTUNE
Jack was Also the Host of CROSSWITS
Jack Clark Passed Away from Bone Cancer in 1988
One of the Password writers was Dick DeBartolo of MAD Magazine and Match Game. He or the other writers will come up with some choice passwords appropriate with the guest celebrities appearing like "Miser".
Is that the same Dick DeBartalo that owned the LA Rams back in the 80s? ( In his wife's name?)
@@douglaslowe5 I think you mean Eddie DeBartolo Jr the owner of the San Francisco 49ers during the 1980s Super Bowl years. No relation to Dick D.
My God, the set looks like it cost $10. Jack was so funny...
it was very expensive in those days , for the time.
Look up how much the prize money is worth in now and you may understand why the set was more than $10
Jack Benny was so naturally funny…great 20th century icon😺
I remember watching the Jack Benny Show while laughing alot 😂
He was such a great actor, I thought he was really (truly) cheap.
When I was Grown I asked my mother is
Jack Benny really cheap, she said no he's very generous.
And your mother was quite right. In real life he was known as a very generous man.
Although the original "Password" was normally taped in New York, the show periodically taped episodes in Hollywood to allow big name Hollywood stars who might not have been able to travel to New York to appear as celebrity captains.
I grew up in Glendale, and was surprised contestant was from there. Later in the shows run it did move to LA permanently, around 65.
Thanks! That's a tantalizing bit o' trivia!
I like how the announcer whispers the password. Like the contestants might hear him. Ha.
They never show the full stage. I have photos of the entire set, and the announcer really was right next to them. He had to whisper.
He had a microphone with a wide/tall cone like thing over most of his face so that the voice went into the microphone and the people did see his lips. That was done for the blind people who were listening to the show. Very nice thing to do. That was decades before the "Americans with disabilities act was passed into law.
love this.. its entertaining as h*ll! Jack is marvelous!
Don't think h*LL will be anything near entertaining!
Just say it... HELL
Anytime I hear someone relate something to "Hell" I'm just wondering how they know.
I saw this episode posted on the Jack Benny fan page on Facebook. I was waiting with bated breath for the audience reaction to "miser." 😂
i guess Joan Benny learned from her mother Mary Livingston how to be posh and elegant .
As I do when I take off my hat, you make a good point!
They give the most obscure clues for every word. "Pension". How about "retirement"..."money"..."earned"
They did use strange clues.
have to love the classic mic Alan has!
"Now stay tuned for 'DOBIE GILLIS'....next, on the CBS Television Network."
I would like to have seen "Dobie Gillis" stars Dwayne Hickman & Bob Denver as the guest stars on "Password"!
Great game! The commercials were an absolute hoot!
Bullseye is one word. Great seeing Jack and daughter.
No it was originally bull’s eye, you think they made a mistake? Since then it’s now considered to be acceptable to spell it either way.
@@oo0Spyder0oo 🙂
Joan Benny was really smart.
Not that much. When the word was 'antler', she gave every clue but 'horns'.
I didn't like her.
indeed she was, she went to Stanford. I'm pretty sure they didn't have to get a school loan for her, but if her father was playing in character, she's probably still paying on it.
@@jasonhurd4379 - Because horns are NOT antlers. Try using an encyclopedia or a dictionary! Antlers are solid. Horns are hollow. Deer, Moose. Elk, Caribou have antlers. Cattle have horns.
Indeed. A lovely lady with intelligence, charm & poise to match!
- Interesting; according to the "internets"… "Bull's-eye" can be all one word or two words. Mr. Benny should have been able to use that as a clue! :-)
If you look in 1960's dictionaries you would find only hyphenated words-- which are not accepted on Password.
@@MikkoHere okay, times change. Thanks.
Never thought of Pension as Charity
I computed retirement benefits and would have probably used retirement or annuity.
A pension then was not a retirement pension as it it is now.
I do. tax burdened hard working private sector would see it that way.
Agreed. None of the four people on stage had ever actually worked for living in a hot outdoors job or a cold/freezer job on the midnight shift or spent 20 or 30 years in the military sleeping on cots or in foxholes.
They never have/had broke a sweat, unless it was at a Golf Course in the Palm Springs area. They never had their back so racked with pain that they could only walk one step at a time.
Pension is NOT charity! I worked for many, many years and am now getting my Social Security money ---- which was taken out of my paycheck since I was teenager. I also get an annuity pension because I worked at a Grocery company that had a Teamster's Union Contract.
People need to look through a dictionary before they get on a game show about words.
I laughed out loud when Allen said men don't use the word fabric, I don't think he could get away with that today without being excoriated for it. Was a pension really considered welfare or charity back in those days? Because my father worked hard for his all his life
Alan Luden explained a pension certainly isn’t welfare although today they try to say social security is (not realizing we worked & paid in many years for it.)
Yes.
Did you hear Allen's remarks to Social Security "Not being secure "? Ahead of his time, for that remarks. But oh so true from my grandmother 's view.
He certainly could not get away with it today. And isn’t it strange that today people are so uncivilized and foul yet mandate constant virtue signaling and political correctness? In one of the Password episodes (it must have been pulled from a modern day game show channel) the juxtaposition between the impeccable behavior on this show and the commercials (one of which depicted a modern dating show where women were saying, “You don’t have the BALLS to do it!” while another said, “try me bitch!” was startling.
@@kittylady6946 agreed
Jacky Benny is stll funny!!
Right On! My all time favorite comedian!
I watched this, Andy Griffin and Dick Van Dyke before going to kindergarten.
It was an interesting time.
Thank you, as always, for sharing!
I agree 100 percent!
Sure do miss Jack Benny.
It can be difficult to think up the right word to give as a clue in the studio under hot lights and the actors and contestants could be a little nervous( even actors used to the spotlight can get nervous sometimes) so that could account for them not using a better word to describe the password.
You make an excellent point.
Joan died earlier this year just days shorn of her 87th birthday.
Originally seen on Tuesdays at 8pm(et).
Thanks for this! I have Joan's book that she wrote about her father and his show.
The clue for Stein, I would have said, "Franken"
I would have said 'Tankard'.
That was the clue I gave my wife! Lol. Franken..., that is.
I don’t believe “Franken” is actually a valid word for a clue, so would not have been allowed.
@@elspethcoogan1499 I disagree. Contestants often "made up" words, and as long as they were one word, they were accepted. E.G. Jane Fonda used the word "spitted" for the password "spat."
Love the hairdo, the flip hairstyle. My sister and I tried to do our style the same way in the '60's.
As only Jack could do, he held off saying anything to let the laughs roll.
I haven't laughed all day but Benny has me cracking up bigtime. He's brilliantly clever!
Thanks for keeping the ads in. Loved the singing cigar ad lol.
Right On! I too love seeing vintage TV commercials!
RIP Joan Benny… June 10, 2021 at age 86
At 1:49 what are those spots on Jack Benny's left hand? I'm curious because I didn't know if it was from an ailment he was suffering at this time, perhaps it was a glove? Thanks in advance!
Just his hand. Maybe some liver spots from aging. The black and white does seem to exaggerate certain things and this, I think is one of them.
Like that you show the
original commercials .
Bullseye is only one word!!!
Christine McIntyre
Sure is. Jack ought to get on them about that.
Announcer while saying the password: 🤭 Allen Ludden, Joan Benny, the contestants and the studio audience: 🤣😂 Jack Benny: 😒😏
I was born in Jack Benny’s hometown, Waukegan
Cool! Acclaimed author Ray Bradbury was born there too!
They make a really good couple Jack Benny's daughter and the young good looking Tech Guy I wish they would be married
Jack Benny reminds me so much of my Dad.
Jack Benny had a dry sense of humor as did Carol Channing.
You speak the truth, Kemo Sabe!
Thank you ...
Jimmy Wallington speaks for Dentu-Creme.
And he does it very well....
Thinking… For "Theater" even as a first clue I would have (in a theatrical manner) said… STAAGE!
Interesting that neither Jack Benny or his daughter even know what a pension is.
I would have said 'Retirement'.
I have prepared tax returns for a retired actor. He received a pension from SAG. As a young actor, he was in a very famous movie in 1961, the same year that the SAG (Screen Actors Guild) pension fund was created as a result of negotiations between SAG and producers in the motion picture and television industry. So in May 1962, Jack Benny should have been aware of the existence of the union pension fund that was created.
The president of SAG who helped successfully negotiate that benefit for SAG members? Ronald Reagan.
I did not get that impression. Certainly the daughter had a clue, she said aged.
@@loissimmons6558
Interesting comment --
Thank you!
were game shows scrambling to get jack benny on them. he was very entertaining and popular
That's for sure!
Thank you for posting this entertainment!
Bullseye is actually one word.
Love and miss Jack
Benny kisses that young girl!!!
Roy Jiminez
He'd be arrested for that now! 💋
Creepy!!!
Adorably funny.
He had good taste !
Was that William Christopher and Ernie Kovacs SINGING in the Dutch Masters commercial?
Couldn’t have been Ernie Kovacs, as he passed away earlier that year. A few years later, some more singing Dutch Masters ads aired featuring the legendary Thurl Ravenscroft.
@@davehire1433 Good ol' Thurl! The longtime voice of Tony the Tiger in those "Sugar Frosted Flakes" commercials. And he sang the song "You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch" in the 1966 animated TV classic "How the Grinch Stole Christmas".
Does anyone know how much guest stars were paid to appear, which usually was for 1 week?
not the $ -- but this ep was from the nighttime edition, so the Benny's only did the 1 ep
It would have been union scale. Don't know what the amount was back then.
The Dutch Masters commercial, that is NOT how I barely
remember them, on the "Ernie Kovacs Show" in the early 1960s those Dutch Masters commercials, does anyone
remember them? What happened to them, were they erased?
There were four Dutch guys on the box, one of them was shorter than the others and they were always picking on him?
But at the end he always won out. They were funny. Will
I ever see them again?
Lady Remington what amazing technology a special switch to turn it on and off.
RIP Joan
Lots of fun!
Yes, this was a particularly enjoyable episode !
Clearly Jack Benny was "king" in 1962, the audience laughs loudly at anything he says. They were hanging on his every word.
It was interesting... I decided to disregard the announcer and tried using Dentu Cream on my regular teeth… umm, after which I needed dentures :-( [ :-)
Jack is very smart
And his daughter was too!
Miser knowing Jack Benny so true. FUN TIMES ❤
All-in-all not a bad episode. Joan Benny was smart and attractive. I never cared for her Dad or his show or his "shtick". When my parents had his show on, I would go to my room and read a library book.
I CANNOT understand how badly J.B. fouled up the word "Pension". At his age (with liver spots on his hands) he should have been thinking about retiring and getting a "Pension".
A Pension is NOT a "charity". I earned every penny. Military folks who spend 20 or 30 years in service get a Pension. That is NOT charity. We earned every penny. Sadly, the lunatic government taxes our benefits.
Makes me think that he was too miserly to join the entertainers Union and contribute to his own "Pension". Pensions are paid into by the employee and employer, unless you are Self-Employed, which J.B. might have been on his own TV show. {I do not know.}
Social Security deductions are taken from your paycheck before you ever see the $. When you turn 62 you can decide to retire and collect Social Security Administration Payments, which many of us have paid into since our teenage years. When this episode was filmed / aired in 1962 many people were already drawing their S.S. pension. How did nobody get this "Password"?!?
The most idiotic diatribe I've ever read. Benny was much beloved and talented and in real life was anything but a miser, as is well known.
Maybe it was different in 1962, but seems like "bullseye" should have been accepted? Jack was robbed!!!
The sexism is so refreshing.
I have to speak out against it -that lady in the Remington ad, sure had nice gams!!!!
@17:43 Holy cannoli!!! 🤣 Times DEFINITELY have changed! lol The man would be arrested from that these days! 😆 (but good onya, Jack, you old scoundrel you 😘)
I take it this one never aired on GSN since I don't see the watermark...........
Thank goodness for that. Classic TV should be free for you and me.
"Bullseye" was ruled out. Back then it really was written as two words.
Joan left us last June 10th, a week short of her 87th birthday.
Announcer: "This is the lovely lady who made a 39 year old man a Grandfather, Twice!"
Joan: 🙂 😐 😳😳
As seen on Tuesday nights at 8pm(et).
