Wow to think Arlene started the show in 1950, she sure witness many changes during her time on the show -in style and music and many things going on in the eras
What the heck, Wally Bruner, the host is answering the questions for the guests! "Are you a soul singer?" Bruner: "YES!" How about letting the mystery guest answer? No one will ever replace John Daly as WML-host :/
Well, Brown's voice is QUITE recognizable...even with him trying to disguise it. And he DID answer most of the questions. Daly used to do this too. Give the guy a break, man.
the production staff must have been out of their minds to book the fire-wielding hair stylist. Fates reported in his book that the production staff also booked a fire demonstrator on wheels who managed to accidentally set himself alight during the demonstration. That mistake did not get past the editing room.
This syndicated game show always was distributed by Viacom, which always was a division of CBS. In July 1968, Viacom paid to videorecord the first "What's My Line?" syndicated episodes. They spent an entire day creating five episodes so one could be telecast on each weekday in a given American city. That was July. James Brown visited the Ed Sullivan Theater (a theater used for television not theater) three months later: October 1968. Viewers in many cities saw this in late '68 & '69.
Oh Soupy. Oh Phyllis. Most irritating laughing fits on WML since that incident when Dorothy and Shelley Berman got the hysterics during that game involving President Kennedy's rocking chair maker.
1) Dorothy is dead 2) Bennett works during the day when the syndicated episodes are recorded. The original WML was broadcasted LIVE on Sunday night at 10:30 PM, so Bennett was available. 3) Fred Allen is dead 4) Steve Allen hosts his own show(s).
Phyllis Newman should have been the replacement for Kilgallen. She's the best hands down. What's with this use of fire when cutting hair. NYC consumer affairs MUST have shut this nonsense down pronto after this aired, no???? Unbelievably dangerous and stunt-like. I see Mole died in the early 70's, not long after, but the shop still exists.
Oh they had a mask maker on the original one too and they had to blindfold themselves too. That tongue twister was delicious! ❤ I wonder if Martin Gable made an appearance in this version too..... I haven't seen him yet ❤
Only the MG requires one question at a time. There have been numerous occasions when the panelists wore blindfolded for many reasons, like contestant's name or how they look.
I like how white audiences started sweatin JB after King's passing when he stopped riots, told black people to not riot, steal etc. They were scared to death. Then "black and proud" came out then they abandoned him then came back again then abandoned him again when he was in prison then liked him again after he got out ha.

Bambi Harris She still very beautiful too.
I'm amazed, and also glad, that she lived until the year 2001, and died age 93.

I liked Larry blyden also!
Agreed - John Daley was a darling, and the best - he did though at times answer for/with the mystery guest if they needed a little help
I agree. Wally was out of place here. He was great as the host of Wally's Workshop.
Arlene looks beautiful here in color.

It's so 😎 to see such a unique vocation as the man that cuts hair with 🔥
Whoever that person was that was screaming outloud even at the end of the show for James Brown is so annoying. I just wanna slap her.
She probably dead by now
??????? Someone is excited to see their musical hero !
When Soupy Sales pretends to give Gawn a manicure... that cracked me up!
Soupy and Phyllis are ZOOTED!
James Brown looks like Cuba Gooding Jr. here goddamn.
I Remember The Syndicated What's My Line, When It First On Here In The New York City Area, Was On WOR-TV Channel 9.
16:42 - I think the disguised voice would still give it away :)
Never knew James Brown was left-handed! Like me. :)
How interesting that James Brown and Soupy met again. Read about the James Brown concert incident in Soupy's book.
the production staff must have been out of their minds to book the fire-wielding hair stylist. Fates reported in his book that the production staff also booked a fire demonstrator on wheels who managed to accidentally set himself alight during the demonstration.

Phyllis Newman was so gorgeous 😍. I wish she wouldn't have worn those shades though, for she had such captivating eyes.

Wth you could tell it’s James Brown from the first No lol
James brown was fine back in the 70s
This was 1968.
That is correct. That's why this was taped in the Ed Sullivan Theater.
Brown just cut off his trademark processed do. Black and I'm Proud Movement
Is it me or did the panel seem a little tipsy?
IT IS YOU.
WoW ... what a let-down from the 'old days'.
Oh Soupy. Oh Phyllis. Most irritating laughing fits on WML since that incident when Dorothy and Shelley Berman got the hysterics during that game involving President Kennedy's rocking chair maker.
Dorothy would be so proud of them.
Soupy Sales did the voice of Donkey Kong in Saturday Supercade in the 80s
What's My Line was history by the 80s.
It's obvious that Soupy and Phyllis (and maybe Gawn) smoked or snorted something just before taping.
everybody seemed a little tipsy in the 60s
It was the decade of acid maaan
What had Arlene Francis in common with Cher, Charles Aznavour and the Kardashian family? They are/were of Armenian descent.
As were Mike Connors, opera star Lorrine Amara, camshaft manufacturer Ed Iskerderian and auto racing promoter A.C. Agajanian.
Jump to 15:55 for the GODFATHER OF SOUL.
why did they cut the older commentator out of this show?
Jayson Williams he was asked to host but declined.
The hair cutting by fire is as old as the stone age...
what is arlene wearing ?? glitter hospital pjs ??
This was not in 1968 it was in 1969 i could tell because his hair got cut in 1969 not in 1968
Wrong. This was TAPED on November 12, 1968.
No you’re wrong he got the Afro in 1968.
The original lineup was much better
1) Dorothy is dead
2) Bennett works during the day when the syndicated episodes are recorded. The original WML was broadcasted LIVE on Sunday night at 10:30 PM, so Bennett was available.
3) Fred Allen is dead
4) Steve Allen hosts his own show(s).
@@RonGerstein Bennett died soon after his few appearances on the panel.
@@PREGO1966 Obviously

shhhhhhh he did and so did Peter Gabel
@@PREGO1966 OK I NEED A LINK NOW! ❤️😂 Jk lol thanks for letting me know.... Hopefully I can spot them
Does poppa have a brand new bag ?
For the first round, they should have done it one question at a time in turn moving clockwise.
Only the MG requires one question at a time. There have been numerous occasions when the panelists wore blindfolded for many reasons, like contestant's name or how they look.
@@RonGerstein But it would have been a challenge if they did one question at a time for the blindfolds maker.
This is the period when James gave up his famous "conk" (his term) for black pride. He started straightening his hair again in the mid-1970's.
Evidence how tired the show became.
I like how white audiences started sweatin JB after King's passing when he stopped riots, told black people to not riot, steal etc. They were scared to death. Then "black and proud" came out then they abandoned him then came back again then abandoned him again when he was in prison then liked him again after he got out ha.
As soon as I saw that “ha” I knew who this was! 😂
Phyllis gets drunk in this one.
Phillis is marred to Adolf? 21:13
