The first guest was the most interesting one I have ever seen on this program. I wish there had been more time available, but what he displayed in the few minutes allotted to him was astounding.
Times change, phrases like 'gay' or 'fisticuffs' either transform or disappear (gay isn't "happy," and who says "drunk, the fisticuffs ensued" etc!) Similarly, i LOVED the hilarious moment here (with audience sweetly oblivious to OUR modern terms) as a guest impersonated ("did a") Bette Davis & Olivia de Havilland.. Host: "Miss de Havilland, has anyone ever done you before?" Olivia: "I have trouble doing mySELF..." ..lol..🤭 MANY reasons to love these old shows though. 💕 👥 📺 🍿
![What's My Line? - Olivia De Havilland; Martin Gabel & Carol Channing [panel] (Aug 8, 1965)](/img/n.gif)
Oliva de Havilland lived to be 104. Amazing. Born in July 1916 & passed away in July 2020. I loved both Olivia & Bette Davis. Two gems.
Barbara Heller is amazing. A great talent at mimicry.
So nice seeing Bette and Olivia together 💖
I just love how men would stand when a woman enters room and holds a chair
I agree wholeheartedly! ✓
And I love when some of them (as rare as it is..) do that still even today.

I never saw this show before and I love it. I was born at the wrong time.
Better late than never 😊
I corresponded with Olivia for years.
Nice.

Why does it say WATCH WITH SOUND at the beginning? Why would I watch it WITHOUT sound?
Bette Davis had an interesting career trajectory later in her life. She did a few horror movies, where she was truly terrifying.
Never heard of Barbara Heller. That's okay. She never heard of me, either.
Robert Jordan is my dad!
Both those lovely ladies died in Paris France
Buddy Hackett could not help but be slightly offensive. Just slightly. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

The impressionist was far from impressive. She did Davis like she wore three sets of dentures.
