    Such a sad, untimely ending for such a beautiful and talented and criminally UNDER-rated actress since LEE REMICK passed away from terminal cancer only in her mid-50s. RIP.

    • @shuroom57

      You're right. I touched me too. Especially that one scene where her husband, played by Jack Lemmon, castigates her for not being up for partying with him since the birth of their child. There's one point where she's facing the camera in tears as he makes a childish, insensitive comment about her mother's milk, pointing maniacally towards her chest and she clutches her bosom in sad horror that she is receiving such a torrent of hate from her man, the father of their baby. God, you just want to jump into the screen and hold her in your arms, tell her it will be alright.

    The first movie I remember seeing Miss Remick in was in 'The Wheeler Dealers', at the drive-in, with my folks.
    I can still hear mama and daddy laughing and enjoying it. It was a fun movie.
    Miss Remick's co-star was James Garner. Their interaction was magic.
    Catch The Wheeler Dealers, if you can.
    I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Remick, when she was in our town, shooting 'Rear View Mirror', in the 1980s. She was a delightful, lovely, beautiful, person.

      I also noticed how young Orson Bean was in this episode. I'm not sure I've ever really seen him acting in anything, but he was one of those people who always seemed to be a celebrity guest or panelist/contestant on game shows and talk shows in the 60s and 70s. I see from IMDb that he has quite an impressive list of acting credits spanning over 50 years, though.

      I remember Orson quite well from "To Tell The Truth" where he was a regular panelist. With the questioning periods timed rather than until a person got a :no", he was much more in his element on that panel. Plus as one gets experience, they will be more comfortable on the panel.
      That show was on earlier in the evening and I watched it far more often than WML when it originally aired. Orson was one of my very favorites on the show. I enjoyed it when he and Peggy Cass (both New Englanders) would fuss at each other. And he was well-known for certain Orsonisms. Sometimes he would ramble on and then say, "Number two, make that into a question and answer it." If he couldn't think of another question to ask before his allotted time expired, he would start to ask one of the challengers about the income tax surcharge and that would immediately get him buzzed that his time was up. If the person they were trying to guess was involved in a dangerous interaction with nature, he would ask if they had ever encountered the "dreaded gaboon viper". (It actually does exist in sub-Saharan Africa, and its name is based on the same word as the country "Gabon".) In later years, if they were trying to guess someone younger, especially a musician, in an affected voice he would ask about a relatively obscure group "Garnet Mimms and the Enchanters" (known for one hit in 1963, their first song "Cry Baby". later covered by Janis Joplin). And sometimes he would be distracting to Kitty Carlisle and it would exasperate her. (And I didn't mind that because I was never a big fan of Miss Carlisle.)
      In short, Orson was delightfully witty on TTTT and he enlivened the show for me every time.

    As a fun trivia note, Orson Bean (while guest hosting for the Jack Parr Show, in April 1961) welcomed an unknown eighteen year-old singer, Barbra Streisand, for her first television appearance. Barbra's life-long friend, Phyllis Diller, was on this particular show as well. The rest, as they say, was history. P.S. How can someone live to be past 90 years of age, still in good physical and mental health, get run down by a careless driver? Ahhhh!! RIP Mr. Bean.

    Fairly audible tonight was the caviar general asking for his winnings to be donated and John not mentioning it. Perhaps John didn't get all of his request, or was running out of time or maybe that bit was edited out by those saving these broadcasts.

  • @519djw6
    @519djw6 9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    It's interesting to me how this show changed in format over the 17 years that it was on TV, I think it was a vast improvement over the early '50s version, when non-celebrity contestants were expected to troop in front of the panelists so that they could "inspect" them, as a bidder at a horse auction. inspects animals for age and other possible tell-tale signs. On a completely different subject, I am always happy to see Lee Remick. For my money, she was the most beautiful screen actress of her time. Unlike Monroe and Mansfield, et al,, she came across as a very intelligent woman, who just just happened to be incredibly gorgeous.

      John mentioned that the crowd had to brave a snowstorm to arrive at the show. Based on the amount of applause, it sounded like a smaller than usual audience. Perhaps the wolf whistlers either stayed home or were still thawing out and catching their breath. Listening to it again, I hear one or two faint whistles.
      Even the response to the very attractive Lee Remick was less robust than usual with one or two very faint whistles (just a little louder than what the first guest received) at best and much less applause. Or to ask the zen question: what is the sound of an empty seat clapping?
      Personally, I thought the first challenger had a pretty face but otherwise was rather average looking. She wasn't especially shapely and her dress didn't accentuate any shape she might have had. It didn't look like it fit her very well, maybe one size too big.

    Seems like the best strategy is to ask questions where the no is more specific than the yes.

    • @loissimmons6558
      @loissimmons6558 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The best strategy is to ask questions that whether the answer is yes or no, can effectively narrow down the playing field of possible jobs that the challenger might be engaged in. Dorothy's inside information questions (for example, "Did you lose your address book while riding in a helicopter?") were bad strategy until she already had a good idea of who it might be and had it narrowed down to a few possibilities. Why? Because a no answer only eliminated one person (and only she knew who it eliminated).
      But questions such as whether the person works for a profit making organization, or does the job take place on or near the water rule in or rule out large chunks of jobs. Hearing the answers, one can ask other questions that narrow it further.
      And sometimes there's an element of luck involved. Sometimes a yes answer was technically correct but sent the panel down a rabbit trail. In this episode, that occurred when they found out that one of the challengers (Miss Ash) had something to do with horses but it didn't get them much closer to her being a bugler at a racetrack. But once they did learn that a racetrack was involved, by luck someone might have thought of it, though no one did.
      The experienced panelists over the years learned how to match wits with the WML staff. Bennett in particular liked to rule out the obvious just to make sure that the staff wasn't pulling a double reverse. Chances are they weren't so he would get a yes answer and could keep asking questions. But if he got a no, it was a great setup for the next panelist. And since he sat in the anchor seat most of the time, that would usually mean a setup for another experienced panelist: Arlene or Dorothy. They knew what to do with a nice fat pitch over the heart of the plate. And that usually led to a home run for the panel and a short round for the challenger.

      Especially in the early years, the WML staff scouted for interesting occupations and the people who performed them. And at that time not as many people were knowledgeable about the show. Eventually John would ask the question in an off-hand way, expecting a yes answer. The exception would be if someone was from a foreign country that was less likely to have seen or heard about WML. Then he might ask in this manner: "Seeing that you are from Lower Slobbovia, are you familiar with how we play What's My Line?" And even as late as 1964, once or twice during the year he had to explain it.
