@@shirleyrombough8173: I don't think so. I think it shows her versatility to disguise her voice and identity as an actress which also proves her talent and greatness in her field.
Cattle photographer and square manhole maker. 2 back to back of rare and unusual occupations that I have seen on this show, since its start. No wonder the panel had trouble.
Introducing John Daly at 1:53, Bennett correctly uses "tortuous" to describe the garden paths that Daly leads the panel up, meaning "twisty, winding, devious" rather than the similar word "torturous" with which it's often confused, meaning "involving torture, painful."
Shelley (a great actress) was an absolute hoot! I loved watching her on Merv's show - as well as the Carson Show. I recall her telling Johnny that she spent more than $100,000 on "psychiatric analysis" to discover why she liked Latin men. (A huge sum of money at the time). Shelley seemed distracted, as she said this (while straightening her dress) and the audience grew very quiet - after a few seconds, Johnny Carson asked her if she ever "learned why" - and Shelley (in her great Brooklyn voice!) replied, "Yes, it was because I LIKED THEM!" Needless to say, the audience roared. No one ever laughed at this great lady - everyone loved her fun humor and down to earth honesty.
Bennett compared the cattle photographer to Richard Avedon, who therefore must have been well known by 1960 for his photos. Avedon had an extraordinarily long career then at the top of his field.

I'm not sure square manhole covers are a good idea. There's a reason for the round ones -- you can't accidentally drop a round manhole cover and kill someone working down below. A rectangular or square cover will easily fit through the manhole because the diagonal dimension is longer than either side of a square or a rectangle, and manhole covers weight a great deal.
From another post (below): "The sides of the lid were longer than the diameter of the manhole so the lid could not fall through the manhole". He apparently won an award for his design.
I knew there was something going on there! Bennett's reference to The Valley of Decision at 1:50 was, in fact, the show WML was pre-empted by the previous week.

I feel like both of the regular contestants' lines were a bit too obscure/difficult to guess... The panel usually laughs or goes "ohhhh" after the reveal, but here they just continued to look puzzled. In fact, this is probably my first time seeing an episode where the panel fails to guess on every single round, and even Arlene seems rather frustrated by it.
Jennifer Yorgan Whereabouts? Shelley answers the questions occasionally with an answer other than yes or no but I think the questions were all yes-or-no-able ones.
This is Absolutely Not meant in a mean manner but if there were (ever) awards for Most (Seemingly) Random Question, Dorothy Would Sweep. Every Time. Lol
Shelley had started out as a svelte actress. Even during her last appearance on WML with her then husband Tony Franciosa she was fairly fit. In that relatively short amount of time, she gained quite a bit of weight.
Was it for "The Poseidon Adventure" that Shelley first gained weight? Some actors/actresses can lose such weight, like Renee Zellweger. They seem to just turn around and lose those pounds, though Shelley never did. She was still gorgeous anyway.
@@diananutt1517 No, she was heavy before that but in that movie her character remarked on how she had once been a swimming champ in her youth, but no longer. In "Lolita," around 1960, as James Mason loses interest in her, he ungentlemanly refers to Shelley's character as a "cow."
@@preppysocks209 I didn't see "Lolita," but I remember in "Poseiden" as the ship filled with water, Shelley's character performed some sort of heroic swim hoping to save their group's lives, didn't she? Surely she wouldn't have been expected to gain for either movie's plot! I would tell them that would cost them another $3 million.. and the services of a gorgeous trainer to drop the lbs! 😉
John Daly said that William Taylor's square manhole cover company was known as the "Silent Knight Company." Arlene said "Holey Night." When I looked up the company to find the correct spelling, I learned that in 1960 Mr. Taylor won the Achievement Award from the National Noise Abatement Council. I also learned that the sides of the lid were longer than the diameter of the manhole so the lid could not fall through the manhole.
Its always a killjoy when the contestant can't even answer simple yes/no questions about their own product or service. Contestant #1, a "Cattle Photographer, couldn't accurately answer multiple questions, including, is your product associated with "a dairy farm-type animal?" Her answer, "no." Geez.

I REALLY LOVED Szhelley Winters portraying Sue Lyons's mother in the great m ovie "Lolita", also starring James Mason and directed by Stanley Kubrick.
And she won a second one in 1966.
@@steveburrus9347 - She was very talented. And seemed like a decent human being. Too bad the panel couldn't guess her identity.

I love Shelley Winters.She has a heart of gold.
I discovered Shelley Winters when I was 12 years old in a movie called who slew Auntie Roo. Loved her work ever since.
"I feel it but I can't put it anyplace"...lol! Gotta love Arlene!
Classic!
Haaaa! Arlene always with the naughties :)
Very good video, nice and clear....
glad to see Dorothy back
yeah, her front ain't that bad either

Dorothy's face is priceless XD
Thank you for these they have saved my life

The Panel struck out. Very rare indeed.
Another episode where Arlene mimics a voice of the mystery guest. She was quite good at that too. She would make a gerat impressionist. ;-)

Neil Midkiff Don't forget Serf has trouble pronouncing his R's though. :)
I remember Shelley Winters being on the Merv Griffin show decrying her daughter leaving home. When asked her daughters age she said 28!
🤣

Nobody seems to get Arlene's joke ("cattle-log") at 10:38
Lars Rye Jeppesen We did. But it was super quiet for the audience to pick up on.....thankfully! :)
Yes! Arlene was always so very quickly clever.
Shelley Winters, who played everything imaginable in her very long career, somehow managed to fool the panel while barely disguising her voice.

Strange that they didn't go for the second guest's product sooner, after John's heavy hinting.

We’re working on smaller people let’s leave the cars alone. Sorry Mort that didn’t work out 🤣
John Daly allowed questions, that couldn't be answered yes or no, in the mystery guest segment.
Jennifer Yorgan Whereabouts? Shelley answers the questions occasionally with an answer other than yes or no but I think the questions were all yes-or-no-able ones.
Was this the first time the panel struck out on every guest?
very rare but I do recall this happening at least once before
Would the cattle photographers pictures be put in a cattle-log? 😃
John Daly may have made a mistake about Shelley Winter's movie. "Reach for Tomorrow" should be "Odds Against Tomorrow".
One of the great noir films of all time
@@rtflone I agree.
Yet another episode in which there is no visible sign of Arlene's heart necklace.
SaveThe TPC It's under that lot somewhere I'm sure.
Arlene Francis: "I feel it but I can't put it any place." Well...that one got by the 1950s' censors!

Yes, if you look at each of her appearances, she's larger than the previous one.

Safety devuse is needed in case of bad rain, human removing if manhole.
The panel didn't get one thing, right.
There is a Man has a vlog called Daze with Jordan the lion that got to spend time with shelly winters and she taught him acting
What was the joke made about the manhole 🕳
John Daly said that William Taylor's square manhole cover company was known as the "Silent Knight Company." Arlene said "Holey Night." When I looked up the company to find the correct spelling, I learned that in 1960 Mr. Taylor won the Achievement Award from the National Noise Abatement Council.

Aren't ALL products useful? Who wants to sell a product that is NOT useful???
the "My Pillow" guy.
Mr. Taylor and Nr. Cerf look like they could be cousins.
Cattle have never been alive?
Indeed no
not the photographs though
The pictures
no, not in Kansas...technically, nothing is alive in Kansas.
That first guest was a disaster lol

Is it just me, or is the font they used for Shelley Winters' name different?
It has got to be the innate nature if the profession - Mystery Guests just can't seem to shut up.
Sadly, the great Shelly Winters spent her later acting years guest starring on the tv series of the horrible bigot Roseanne Barr.
