Loved Robert Preston in Music Man!
Robert Preston is amazing! Love him in Victor/Victoria!
Classy American television. Please bring it back.
Class has to exist first for them to bring it back 😂
I automatically click on Carol Burnett on Password. So good! And so funny!
I never tire of this show. Fun and educational You can't beat that. Carol Burnett helarious as usual
The man playing with Carol Burnett (at the beginning) is the father of a former coworker of mine.
Allen Ludden was the classiest host, and Carol and Robert are put so at ease that they are having a ball!
I love watching Carol Burnett's obvious enjoyment of the game and the people on this show.
Oh how adorable Robert Preston was great player.
I always thought Robert Preston. Was fabulous in the movie The Music Man. That is one of my favorite musicals.
Ever see him in Victor, Victoria with Julie Andrews. It was hilarious.
Same here!
Robert Preston is a treasure! (And so is Carol!)
Having loads of fun but focused too. This is a blast to watch
Robert Preston was a national treasure
It is a sign of the times when Alan Ludden asks men contestants "what do you do?", but he asks the women "what does your husband do?" I am old enough to remember when these were logical questions that no one questioned.
Because the employees paid the husband enough to live on. The wife had no reason to work, financially. Then along came Reagan.
@@keithhyttinen8275 The change began long before Reagan. My Mom was a homemaker only and loved it. Then the Dems in NY tripled real estate taxes in the early 1970's and she had to find part time work to help pay the bills. The leftists are the criminal, greedy ones, especially those who destroyed New York.
Groucho would even ask the women their age.
He should have said, "Tell me about yourself". After all, SHE was the contestant, not HIM.
Allen was told in advance if a female contestant was a housewife, that's when he'd ask what her husband did. If he was told she worked, he'd say "So you're a working girl?"
For "Litter" I probably would've made a scowl/sour look on my face and said "Kittyyyy...."
Good one! 👍
I was thinking that too!!
Robert Preston is a handsome fella!
I remember Carol Burnett from the Gary Moore Show!!!
Big hugs to Danna !!!
“She gives wonderful clues” 😂😂😂😂
It’s always fun watching Carol, Robert Preston was very good.
I was born 20 days later than this aired!
In other words, don't listen to the "critics" - it's just their opinion...
Love these two! Great clue givers!
Much simpler times for sure!
As a longtime What's My Line watcher,with its urbane politeness, it looked odd when Robert Preston didn't stand as his first playing partner got up to leave.
Odder when they don't stand to welcome a lady, which I've seen 2 scoundrels do
To correct the show "Au revoir" is an example of a Farewell.
Farewell is a bad clue since it is too confusing.
If they want to say the leave taking expression, "Fare well" then that's two words in itself.
Everyone is so slim. No overweight or obese....
Indeed, I've noticed this too. What has happened to us?
Food became dishonest. You should read the book “Sugar Fat Salt: How the Food Giants Hooked Us”
@@cynn3367Today people spend too much watching TV game shows!
Hollywood/television generally chose only good-looking people to place before the camera. Not a hair out of place!
High fructose corn syrup added to food in coming years.
The guy's reaction at 20:19 is the best. 😄
The contestants can make some faces when the movie stars don't guess the answer. 😂
*What about 'Novacaine' for 'Numb?'* ( *It's a commonly accepted
'one word' clue even then* )
After a couple of clues went on where, "dentist" may have helped as well
How smart is Robert
Imagine Robert Preston and Carol Burnett.
Robert Preston is one of my top ten favorite actors 💕
I don't have to they are right there ❤
Password made its prime time debut on CBS on Tue. Jan. 2, 1962. It moved to different evenings and aired on Thurs. at 7:30pm during the 1963-1964 season. It competed against The Flintstones on ABC and Temple Houston on NBC.
Robert Preston in BEAU GESTE... GREAT GUEST.
Tim Conway and Jonathan Winters would have made funny celebrity guests.
No attention span. Tim Conway and Jonathan Winters.
@@karendeaton9297 - exactly...total disruption for Ludden to stay on schedule..not worth it.
You can really hear Carol's Texas drawl in this episode esp at about 15:18
Interesting, “come see our play before we are closed” in New York.
he actually said come see "some of the other plays before THEY close" then said, "if THEY close, then come see us," a call to support live Broadway, whomever you choose to see.
How about charcoal for grill.
Au revoir (two words) --- Carole: " BUT I SAID IT CLOSE TOGETHER." lololololoolololololoololol
Carol would've just had her daughter Carrie about a month earlier! She's a brand new mom here!
awww
Yeah, the late Carrie
The $500 she won is the equivalent to $4382.00 in 2021.
Just three years before Carol first met Vicki... Crazy, right?
er, nope
Yes, a little over three years. "The Carol Burnett Show" began in the fall of 1967.
Um, word is gang….”Dana” is clue. Am I the only one gobsmacked at this, despite “the times”
I thought the same thing and am glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed it…totally not okay!
If you remember, Dana says she works as a social worker. Shaw says she works with female gangs. Replay the introduction.
@@Ethan77799if you replay the introduction she tells you that she's a social worker with female gangs.
@@OneAdam12Adam thank you!! I often skip the intros, so you've really helped me to understand this non-issue. Phew!
I'm not sure if they had kitty litter for sale as early as 1964 (I do remember it in the 70s as a kid) but if so, you could give the clue "Kitty……" In that Password-ian way that indicates you have another word following up the one you just spoke with a connection but do it as though you're closing off your nose with a scrunched up face as though something smells bad… If not a 1st clue I think that would've cinched it as a 2nd clue. If they didn't have kitty litter back then yet… Nevermind :-)
I totally agree. They didn’t have kitty litter back then. I’m old enough to know.
9:40. the perfect clue.
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!
This episode is a rarity. A Person Of Color contestant in the 60’s run.
A light skinned minority.
Sammy doesn’t count. He’s a celebrity player, not a contestant.
It was driven by what was going on outside the show...NAACP legal action, dozens of civil rights protests, including a massive march on washington five months before this show, and 1964 Civil Rights Act legislation that was being drafted to outlaw the blatant discrimination that deliberately kept black citizens locked out from being contestants and audience members on all of these shows and across society. Unfortunately without the legal action and protests, the exclusionary default position would have remained indefinitely. Today, different times, yet similar story in other areas of American society. And so it goes...
@@waldolydecker8118 nobody stopped any black person from doing anything they wanted. It's all in your own head what you do and what you don't with your own life.
You want something? Go get it.
What have you done with your life?
@@gwendolynkaren5933 - "nobody stopped any black person from doing anything they wanted." Really? lol Unfortunately mommy didn't teach you about keeping your mouth shut to avoid exposing your ignorance. I could slap you upside your empty head with my Graduate credentials and global financial work on three continents, but geez, why bother...you make 'Dumb and Dumber' look like a couple of Rhodes Scholars. Suggest you direct your 'life lecture' to a like-minded family member since they say the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. Fortunately they've proven it's not hereditary, its learned. Good Luck.
And then he used her as a clue for the word “gang”. “Dana”. Wow. This 64 year old white broad is horrified these were in MY times.
But in 2023, it seems like 98 per cent of advertisements and TV commercials are blacks, when they are less than 15 per cent of the American population. Not a very realistic representation.
She could certainly do it but I'm not sure she can get away with it (I think you can on the show) but for "Diploma" the clue "certificate" could've been stretched out and actually SUNG as that graduation March that you hear graduations "Cer-er-tif-i-i...cuu-uuut"
Wowsers !
"actually"
Sir Edward Elgar's 'Pomp and Circumstance" March #1 is the graduation melody to which you refer.
For the word “bank”, someone said “Chase” from off camera? Was that Carol?
Yes...she was vocally playing the lightning round, even when it wasn't her turn
Carol is just shy of 31 here.

Formation (? seconds; partial)

I can't believe no one said "Novocain" as a clue for "numb."
Did we have Novacain back then?
@@kristenkaz3080
Good question. According to Wikipedia, it was first used in 1905, but I don't know how quickly its use grew.
"Procaine was first synthesized in 1905, shortly after amylocaine. It was created by the chemist Alfred Einhorn who gave the chemical the trade name Novocaine, from the Latin nov- (meaning "new") and -caine, a common ending for alkaloids used as anesthetics. It was introduced into medical use by surgeon Heinrich Braun."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procaine
"Braun made important contributions in the development of general, local and regional anaesthesia. In 1901 he devised an apparatus for mixed-gas anaesthesia, and in 1903 recommended the addition of adrenalin as a vasoconstrictor to local anaesthetics. In 1905 he introduced procaine into clinical medicine, an anaesthetic that had previously been synthesized by Alfred Einhorn (1856-1917)."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_Braun
@@YY4Me133 Interesting. Thank you. My dad grew up in the 50’s & 60’s & recalled his dentist didn’t use ANYTHING. He just used a drill by pumping a pedal on the floor to control the speed of the drill. My dad said he just learned to grip the armrest harder as his dentist drilled. I cannot imagine that!!!
@@kristenkaz3080
Sounds like torture. I, too, grew up in the 50's and 60's, but don't recall the kind of drill you mentioned, although I do remember that, at some point, a high-speed drill came out. Did your father grow up in a small town? If so, that might account for the foot-pumped drill. Of course, my memory might have gaps, too.
@@YY4Me133 He did indeed grow up in a small town-like 800 people in northern Minnesota.
6:55 She would have appreciated that $500. Elementary school teachers earned less than $6,000 annually in 1964. 18:03 The contestant was about to say "black". 😆
Was Carol Burnett pregnant when she was doing Password. She had 3 daughters back in the day. It sad her oldest daughter did so young.
I specifically remember her wearing a maternity dress when she was pregnant with her first. Can't remember which show it was.
If not a 1st, at least for a 2nd or 3rd clue, for "Numb" I would've said "Anesthetic."
I would've said "elbow" but they probably wouldn't have gotten it.
I was thinking "Novocaine". They did around to "anesthetized" eventually, but I think they were too confused by the other clues.
Tingly for numb - can also go with unresponsive.
How embarrassing it must have been for Danna to say the word and then right after realize that she said it? I think she must have been highly nervous although she didn't appear to be because she probably felt like she stood out as one of the first people of color to perform on a game show like this. I felt so bad for her. And she said hurt twice. If it was wrong the first time, then it would be wrong the second time.
fair point...many of contestants repeat something they or somebody else has already said...it comes from being nervous, under time constraints, and/or not paying attention to what was previously said. In her case, her repeat didn't hurt her, since she won the word next time around.
Danna. She has a government job. She's a social worker. Big deal. I bet she knows how to spell her name though
@@gwendolynkaren5933 - get a load of Little Miss Scatterbrain insulting contestants for a desperate rush of supremacy. Comically pathetic..
She looked uncomfortable but she did well. I saw a celebeity guest blurt out the word twice. Can't recall who, though. 🤔
Was this show broadcast live?
No. Not sure if this was the night time version. At at that time the daily show had all the episodes taped on 1 day back to back. I imagine these were all done on a Monday because that was a “dark night” for Broadway Theaters.

Important!

I'm curious, did they not have Novocain yet back in 1964? I seem to remember the word when I was a kid at the dentist when I get cavities filled from the late 60s anyway. You may have guessed that I'm talking of course about a clue for the word "water" (just kidding, numb :-)
Yeah, Mom said she got it when she lived in Bklyn and she left there in '62
Charcoal for grill
Ted ‘Shat Again’ ???!?!
Numb:anesthetized; tooth, dentist
For the word at 17:55 only if they could foretell the future as regards the only rapper I actually like here in 2019, the clue would be " Hangoverrrr...." (Tom MacDonald reference :-)
Yeah, voicetube, that's a pretty good one, however, I suppose if they could foretell the future at least (just) into the 70s, a good clue might have been "Bloods..." (said in a menacing way :-)
Knowing now what we know about the marvelous Robert Preston’s personal life, his reaction to ‘Is it Dale or Doll?’ (Allen Ludden to the male contestant) was spontaneous, natural, and 100% human. (9:28)
Sad, there are still people who will clutch their pearls over it.
What??? If you're insinuating that Robert Preston was gay, he wasn't. Not even close. He was a womanizer and cheated on his wife with many women. There was NEVER a man who came forward then or now that was "with" him.
You know this from personal experience? I was saying his question was 100% natural, but that it would imply he was gay, to all the people clutching their pearls!
Rigid for tense
Interesting that Ludden asks the men what they do and the women what their husbands do. Times have changed!
not Ludden's fault. With many of the women being stay-at-home mothers, he can't ask them about a professional job that they don't have. Different times indeed.
🙃🤣. Mary Jane what does your husband do? Oh, brother.
Haha brawd for Preston --- directing that toward wrong team, girly
"And from White House, New Jersey, Mary Jane Herman! And Mary Jane what does your husband do?" ~ Wait! What? Did I just hear this right? Mary Jane does not have an occupation because..., because..., because she's a woman! And, therefore, it's (only) about what her husband does for a living? Oh, the agony of women's "expectations" and roles in the 1950s, moving into the 1960s. (And this unfortunate observation is being made by a 75-year-old man who has lived through the 1950s and '60s, where women were "expected" to be a housewife, a nurse, a secretary or a teacher; until a societal "Wake up Call" came that (helped) open up the door for women (to be "allowed") to broaden their collective involvement in society, and being given the necessary acceptance to do so.)
Au revoir
Bye
