This was in 1987. No one would have ever guessed that three and a half decades later, the fabulous Betty White would still be going strong. She's about to celebrate her 100th birthday!! (In Jan. 2022.). EDIT: I can't believe that the day after I typed this comment, Betty passed away. It breaks my heart, but happily she had a truly incredible, long life!
@@jnealah - I just found out and I'm so sad about it. I absolutely loved her. I sure wish she could have made it to 100...it was just a few weeks away. But what an amazing life she led. Take care and Happy New Year.
+Harry Engel Life with Lucy was supposed to go into 1987, the network canceled it way too quickly with several eps that were never telecast, it is possible this ep of the game show aired in 1987. Hoping Life with Lucy comes out on DVD sometime soon!!
The thing is when Estelle said she was too scared to say anything she probably meant it. Estelle Getty often suffered from terrible stage fright and horrible anxiety before she went on to perform. What an amazing soul to push forward and do her work anyway. 🙏🏻❤️
Al Jolson had that terror as well...During a scheduled performance he became hysterical and couldn't go out on the stage.... His brother SHOVED him out...he slowly got started and put on a great show...
When Julio Iglesias made a guest appearance on The Golden Girls, he was extremely nervous about singing and acting. He was appearing as Sophia’s mystery date and just felt intimidated being in such a huge hit show. It was Estelle who calmed him down and shortened the scene to make it work. Bless her!
Betty White making Lucille Ball laugh and say 'oh Betty, you haven't changed' has made my year! Two comedic legends together laughing a riot in the afterlife ❤❤🤣🤣💫💫✨✨
Only if they both believed in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, repented of their sins, and followed Jesus would they ever be in the afterlife of Heaven. If not, then they are in the afterlife of hell for eternity.
I was just talking about the history of TV with my 9 year old. Was telling him how Betty and Lucy started on radio and pretty much made TV what it is now.
Lucy gets a standing ovation as she's introduced. That's well earned over time. No celebrity will ever match her success on T.V. ever again. Same with Betty.
I think the only tv star to ever surpass Betty in love and popularity was Lucille Ball, and I'm saying that even now, after our beloved Betty White's passing. However, I'm sure Betty would agree.
I miss these old game shows. Nothing was computerised…it was either mechanical or some dude in the back pulling tabs 😂 I love this. Miss Betty! I always forget how young Estelle is bc she’s so amazing playing Sophia…she was actually a year younger than Bea…that’s great acting! And I love Lucy so much. I went to her museum in Jamestown and got to see her grave. It was a huge stone heart! Love and miss them all.
i've been watching some of the black and white early early episodes of Password, and I wonder if there is a person sitting under the table popping up the lightning-round words. lol.
You could tell Lucy was having fun. The laughing and joking around she was doing the whole show...she was having fun. One of the only times you’ll hear the full opening track, too - they gave her a long ovation to welcome her on stage. Lot of respect given to her, and very much well-deserved. She is a legend whose legacy will live on forever.
RIP Betty... thank you for all the smiles and laughs. Reunited with the love of your life, hubby Allen Ludden..you will be missed by so many...including the animals you gave your love & time to...
It's incredible to think Betty White thirty five years ago was already a seasoned TV veteran of 48 years, having made her first appearance on television at the age of 17 in an experimental program called "The Merry Widow" the same year Hitler invade Poland (1939). What's even more remarkable is how her popularity only grew as she became older, Betty becoming something of a national great-grandmother to the younger generation born well after the broadcast of this appearance. What an amazing and deservedly lauded career she had!
Bert Convy's best work was on "Tattle-Tales." Nothing he did after that show compared. LOL. He was a Great Host, Actor, Singer and a terrific Night Club Entertainer as well. Thanks for Sharing!
This was taped on December 2, 1986; the day Desi Arnaz passed. He and Lucy had their last conversation two days before, on what would have been their 46th anniversary. They said they loved each other and from I have heard, Lucy was hurting over his death.
So glad Lucy had the chance to laugh heartily that day. By then everyone knew that Life with Lucy had been canceled, but it was officially on hiatus, so they billed Lucy and Ann as starring on the show.
Lucy died the same day as my great-grandmother. Two amazing women that I admired. I wish I could have met Lucy. I was only 10 years old and I had grown up watching Lucy’s work. I knew what a gift she was and was sad about losing her and my Mammaw on the same day. 🙏🏻
Looking at Miss Ball here, it goes to show what a truly magnificent actress Lucy was in her fifties mega-hit show (granted, she needed great writing). The Lucille Ball of the 1950's was indeed a phenomenal performer
Betty and Estelle were playing for the Humane Society of the United States, while Lucille and Ann played for the National Committee for the Prevention of Child Abuse.
Crazy how some celebrities become such a special part of your life. It is so sad when they pass. Glad they have a home on TH-cam so we can continue to enjoy and remember these American treasures.
I loved this game, even more so when Alan Luden was host. I was a child when Luden hosted, so I could only watch it during summers and holiday vacations from school. Bert Convy was cute!!!
Such an amazing moment when Lucy was part of the category! I loved this so much! Estelle, Betty, Lucy are 3 of my favorite people! Thank you so much for posting this!
I absolutely love Lucy, Betty, and Estelle! All three of them were CLASSIC and PHENOMENAL actresses and women. Betty White is still going strong in 2015! I wonder if Lucy was a fan of The Golden Girls. It was in its third season here (1987)
I woke up from a sad sad dream to see this. Bless your soul Lucy. I will thank you one day. I truly laughed out loud aline in my room (my cats think I'm crazy) 😀
+Patryk Wieczorek (patwiecz22) i thought the world was..... "WACKY" so i would of said....... "TACKY" & "POOR" Miss. Ball (Lucy) shed died like 2 yrs. after this game show was aired....... Lucille Ball..... Aug 6, 1911---------- April 26, 1989 died at the age of...... 77 :(
@@missyrose2154 I read somewhere that Miss Ball attended a taping of The Golden Girls in 1987 and you could almost hear her laughing in the background. I would've loved to see her guest star though. They almost did have her play Rose's blind sister.

Yes, her passing surprised us all.
yeah that really sucks! She was so close to becoming a centenarian!
Lucille and Betty were neighbors and friends for 30 plus years. They held each other in the highest of love and respect
i didn't know that! Thanks for this comment.
I would give anything to see Betty and Estelle play Password as Rose and Sophia.
All of the Golden Girls playing in character would be amazing!
All four Golden Girls playing Super Password is life! It’s a gay man’s dream!!!
@@nathanbush6781 Why a gay man's dream? I found that to be an interesting comment. Not judging, just asking.
Just like Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence played password plus as Eunice and Mama!

It's quite surprising how shy she was in real life, given how well she played Sophia. It truly shows how talented she was.
@Darkangel81 Neither did I but it is so amazing and fascinating to learn more and more about each and every one of them, isn’t it?
They just don't make ladies like Lucy, Betty and Estelle..
Al Jolson had that terror as well...During a scheduled performance he became hysterical and couldn't go out on the stage....
His brother SHOVED him out...he slowly got started and put on a great show...

Betty outlived her cronies but she was no legend.
Only if they both believed in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, repented of their sins, and followed Jesus would they ever be in the afterlife of Heaven. If not, then they are in the afterlife of hell for eternity.
I can't believe Betty is still with us god bless her. Mis u lucy
Lucy had 12 years on Betty
@@chucksellers8422 yes but Betty has been alive 12 years longer than Lucy

Betty was absolutely funnier than Lucy here♥️♥️
Its one thing to hit stardom, but to build your own studio... That's amazing.

I love that Betty is always a proud voice for animals!
Betty and Lucy were two of the legendary ladies of Hollywood there comedic talents are immortal
Hi 👋 Lady, how are you doing ?
I’m sure all 4 ladies respected each other but Lucy and Betty had immense respect for each other and never forgot it.
I love how Lucy cracks up over pretty much everything Betty says lol she's adorable ❤
Lucy & Ann really stole it. Colored is not colors.
Betty white has always fought for the humane society. Still to this day. Anyone who fights for animals has a ❤️ of gold
RIP Betty... thank you for all the smiles and laughs. Reunited with the love of your life, hubby Allen Ludden..you will be missed by so many...including the animals you gave your love & time to...
Lucy’s laugh is absolutely infectious...Hearing her, you can’t help but smile.
Happy birthday 🎂
Piece out
Very sad we lost Betty New Years Eve 2021. Just short of her 100th birthday.❤️
Her birthday was January 17. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

When I saw Lucille Ball and Betty White on the same stage, I flipped out!
+Tycrum The Kid They had already known each other since 1956.
dude youtube them. you will find many more. they competed together many times.
We will miss 3 great legends with the pass of Betty white so real and sweet.

Lucille Ball was so beautiful her entire life. Her bone structure etc.
Bob Lowney she started out as a model and transitioned to a comedienne
Betty was right, wickie is a word, it's a light house keepers assistant, he trims the wicks. Rest in peace Betty, Estee and Lucy xxx
Hi 👋 Lorna, how are you doing?
And Lucy broke the rules more times than they flagged them for.. I think they were trying to set up Lucy to win or something

Betty's and Estelles smile! And Lucy's and Betty's jokes ❤❤❤ I wish I was born during their era 🤗
Wow it’s amazing I was alive in Lucy’s lifetime. I was 4 when she died . What an incredible lady. Rip and thank you for all the laughs !
Lucy died the same day as my great-grandmother. Two amazing women that I admired. I wish I could have met Lucy. I was only 10 years old and I had grown up watching Lucy’s work. I knew what a gift she was and was sad about losing her and my Mammaw on the same day. 🙏🏻
That was so awesome that Lucy guessed herself with the hint "wacky"!!! How amazing!
Hi 👋 Sheila, how are you doing?
I smiled from ear to ear during this entire episode 😁
Me too!😊
Her laugh.. her smile.. her presence.. LUCILLE BALL!!!💜

Lucille Ball is smart she's a very smart woman I enjoyed watching this
Lucy was just months away from her passing. April 26 1989 77 years old Abdominal aortic aneurysm. Smoking
No, this was filmed in December 1986 and aired in 1987, so it was roughly two and a half years later that Lucy passed away
Thank you for this. 3 comedic queens that we all miss.
I had just started nursing school. One of the hardest and one of the most rewarding time in my life.
Betty and Estelle were playing for the Humane Society of the United States, while Lucille and Ann played for the National Committee for the Prevention of Child Abuse.
2 GREAT CHARITIES and it speaks volumes of these women.
Awww, two years later we would loose our beloved red head...RIP

I love how Lucy is running the show hahahaha amazing! Thanks for this
At the 8:00 minute mark , Bert Convy gets a two helpings of love in before the buzzer !! Good for him , Betty & Estelle !! 😁
They made Lucy laugh Soo much. SoOo good for her soul.
Lucy 😂 gotta love her. Just naturally funny as is Betty white. Something that can’t be created. You either have it or you don’t.
Betty has that sweet delivery of saying something bitchy.
foxibot Lucy loved that!!
"And that was legal that time!"
Well , let’s be real....the judge seemed partial to Lucy

This literally caused me to roll on the floor laughing and crying. I'm so happy right now. 😂😂😂

"Wicky" really is a word. From Webster's Dictionary: "any of various low-growing laurels (genus Kalmia)"
I am assuming my golden girls were trying to say the phrase “Whicky Whacky” like Lucille had said “_____ Rock”
Wicky
lmao I've been on a marathon of these and this one is gold.
What a thrill! :) I've never seen this before!
I've found also on TH-cam Betty White's "Happy Hour" LOL

RIP Lucy, Estelle & Bert.

The whole blank rock controversy then the next password is "rock" killed me lol
I dieeeeeed!!!!!!!

Betty White has outlived all of these people seen in this episode except Ann Dusenberry. She's an American treasure... she just turned 99.
So it's just Ann Dusenberry who is still around now. The rest are up in Heaven playing Password.
This was the show where Betty met her late husband now they are together again RIP
I believe this was right before Lucille passed away. I think she passed away in ‘89. R.I.P. Estelle Getty & Lucille Ball.
And Bert Convy!!!
@@aceisagodkiss3872 And Betty White.
Betty is always brilliant on this show!

"Oh... non word rock" Lucy you witty old bird
Love Lucy's laugh! 😆
I love those ladies!!!
Beautiful grand dames!
Thank you. This was extremely well edited.

I can’t believe Betty White knew about wiki all the way back in 1987
Thanks to Burt convy for being a gentleman and great host!
Thanks for posting!
They don't make them like this anymore!
This a rare beginning, you get to hear the bottom half of the Super Password theme in its entirety
RIP Estelle Getty, Betty White, Lucille Ball, Bert Convy, and Gene Wood. At least we still have Ann Dusenberry.
2019 I sure was enjoying watching.
Love this you can see the favoritism here. You cant outshine a legend.

8:10 LOL Betty, Lucy, Bert, Estelle and the buzzer!
That puzzle about Lucy!! 🥰📽📺
Bert was such a funny, cool and really likeable guy
I miss lovely Lucy 😍.
with that trio, Ann Dusenberry has to feel like George Goebel's "pair of brown shoes"
