I love how Betty White mentioned her son. She didn’t say my stepson she said my son. Just another reason to love this great lady.
She truly was an American treasure and her voice was easy to listen to. Bless you Kate .
I wonder what she would think of the kneelers when she sang??????
Seeing as she stood for social justice during her time (despite confusion over the intent of some of her more dated songs), she would probably be just fine with "the kneelers".
Betty White is precious
@@janeiwasduncan8463 Why throw politics upon a wonderful woman .
I really hate the fact that they disgraced her for the songs she but did not represent in life...she was a God fearing believing person...her heart would be broken for sure
You cannot help but LOVE Kate Smith.
I was pleased to see how warmly Kate Smith was received as she came out and as she departed.
I wonder if at a certain point NOT being guessed was a little disappointing to her. She was such a great star!
Kate Smith was one of the most beloved entertainers of the 20th century.
When the Moon Comes Over the Mountain.....
What an incredible singer Kate Smith was - she sung with so much passion - love it!
Your living a federal offence Supreme court justice Clarence Thomas.
@@cynthcorcor126 WTF?
A woman who helped the country survive W W II ...... people loved this woman. People adored this woman for her sincerity and sweetness and her untiring efforts to lift morale. The panel and Mr. Daley very fittingly remarked on their appreciation for Miss Smith. Hence, the wolf whistles !!!!!!!!!!!
A lot of us still do..I sure do and have an album on vinyl and another on mp3, both Christmas.(two different ones.). Even got the early 80s Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Ronald Reagan. A true class act.
The liberals have struck. Now Kate Smith is bad. Who's next? Mother Seton? These people are devisive haters. They're crazy!
@@danielukockis421 If you're going to comment, it would be nice if you could read. It would also be nice if you could think, but I guess that's just asking way too much.
Mr. D-a-l-y.
Kate Smith had a great laugh.
I like Tony Randall. His personality and demeanour contrasts to Arlene's and Bennett's in a way that actually works.
Steff2929again
I always love Tony Randall in everything I see him in. Perhaps I would even have liked UTBU! ;) As I mentioned in another comment on this page, I think the combination of Tony Randall and Betty White with the regular panelists and John helped to make this the best of the post-Dorothy episodes that I've seen so far.
He was an excellent player and funny too. Alan King was good too. It's unfortunate Carol Burnett was never on the panel.
@@ccbsnyc I would have sworn...but you're right. Carol was a mystery guest four times. Tony Randall is one of the people I wish I could have met. He was very good at comedy, and then turned to drama (_M. Butterfly_ on Broadway) and then founded the National Actors Theatre. One of the best interviews on the talk shows. Finally, he loved Chaplin's _City Lights_ and I love that film too. I miss seeing him on TV. Of course, he'd be 102 by now. Hard to believe he died 18 years ago.
"actually"
I like Tony and Steve Allen equally!❣️.
Kate Smith was my mother’s favorite singer. “America’s Songbird”
When my mother passed away at the age of 87, I had them play Kate Smith’s version of “Beautiful Dreamer” It is in my opinion, the most beautiful version of the timeless classic.
The Songbird Of The South!!
When Arlene asked the Christmas tree grower "Is it anything in the trunk family?", I was expecting John to be unsure how to respond because the tree has a trunk!
Kate Smith could really belt out a tune. A very powerful voice. It was great to see a young Betty White on the panel. Thanks for the video.
Kate had a great voice and was a great American! Thank you Kate for your beautiful music and God Bless your soul, You were loved by millions .
Kate Smith. I have many memories of my childhood of her Christmas music.
Loved Kate Smith! Very classy lady.
Arlene always a lady stood to shake hands with the great Kate Smith!
Maurea Williamson -- Arlene also stood for the elderly lady bus driver earlier in that episode. She was good about standing when it was called for.
And the elderly bus driver !
@@Walterwhiterocks Arlene was something else! How many women today of the same mindset?
Maurea Williamson - And she stood for the great grandmother who drove a bus.
I love Arlene Francis's dress (she always dressed well), such a classy l lady. And to prove my point, standing for the bus driver lady. Wonderful show of respect
What a distinguished lady and marvelous entertainer and a superb voice as well!!!!!
What a powerful voice she was... Before my time but I love her voice.. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
The panelists' fondness for Kate Smith was evident immediately as soon as they removed their masks.
Not only has Betty White's appearance not changed (disregarding grey hair) her voice hasn't changed in 56 years. 🤯
May she RIP.
They all had such wonderful voices. It sounds like a radio show.
I know my mom is 86 and she still sounds like she did when she was really young. People always comment on how her voice sound so young.😊
Kate Smith....one common thread in all the TH-cam videos you can watch of her....everyone admired and respected the lady...quite apparent from all the reactions of the professionals...
she earned & deserved all the respect she got.
@@nelsonbanning8190 Not according to the nutty liberals who have now tried to destroy her by calling her a racist. It's the "Twilight Zone."
@@mmjhcb Kate was a victim of her cruel, insensitive time and does not deserve the treatment she has received lately although the ill-advised songs she chose to record were indeed blatantly and disgustingly racist. She did, after all, preach racial tolerance in years to come. It is all the more ironic that, 90 years later, NUTTY white party radical conservatives have brought racism proudly back into their mainstream especially by nominating a white nationalist for president and enabling his attacks on all minorities. The White Party has learned nothing about tolerance and equality. Back.to.square one.. And the racially sensitive environment they have deliberately foisted on this country of late is exactly why Kate has been called out now and not before. You can share some of the blame for Kate's recent character downfall.
@@gbrumburgh Why do I get all the nutsos?
@@gbrumburgh I hadn't read all of your comment (most of it too ludicrous for words); however, I just read your last line. You have some nerve, Mr. Brumburgh, but then that's a liberal's greatest character trait (right behind asinine thoughts, arrogance and condescension). Spread it to your liberal choir, not to me, who has retained common sense and a sensible world view.
Kate Smith did SO MUCH for her country especially during WWII. A national treasure! Where are the people like this today!
A national treasure liberals decided to attack and try to destroy, but you can never destroy greatness and certainly not with lies.
kitty3863 ~ Dead.
everyone will be dead. only memories live. cherish life. you are,dust in the wind.
People of today are too caught up in themselves - oh, how society has gone to the pits!
Kate is my America. The United State's of OUR Nation.AMERICA.,, fu*k brandon. 🗽🗽🗽😎
Kate Smith seemed like a lovely woman. I love how she threw a kiss to the audience.
Love this show. Smart, civil, witty. Gosh, I miss them!
ME TOO! I've never STOPPED missing them since they finally went off the air. That entire ERA was so lovely cmpared to the rude, shallpow, peevish, slovenly, self-indulgent, loutish, sluttish, ill-spoken, disrespectful personalities we have to put up with today.
Kate Smith was an American treasure. Her singing was beautiful .
Kate Smith... a Star! Would have been about 58 here. So full of fun!
And still with us, the lovely Ms. Betty White - on Jan. 17, 2021, will be 99 years young. Truly, a national treasure.
Died
She just missed her 100th birthday passing early this year! Indeed what a treasure she was sharing her talent with us for so many decades!
As she said in interviews regarding passing from this life, she now knows "The Secret", bless your spirit Betty RIP!!!
What a singer she was. I love to hear her sign God Bless America.
She was very gracious and seemed to enjoy herself.
Kate's voice does not need music - It Is that good !!!
Kate Smith was a great and classy lady, and her singing GOD BLESS ANERICA will always make patriotism for The United States be strong in every person's heart to be strong and committed to defending this country.
I asked my 85 year old father who his favorite singer was.Kate Smith was his. He was an eagle scout. Served army as a chaplain. She was a great patriot. My mom liked mainstream music. Doris DAY was her favorite
Beautiful Kate! God Bless and Rest In Peace🌹
There will never be another Kate Smith. The joy of the love of others flows through her and she is an icon in American history. Her and Judy Garland that's entertainment!
Wonderful to see Arlene stand up to greet Kate.
Yes, she did that from time to time; she had a lot of class. Dorothy Kilgallen hardly ever stood up for anyone; I think she stood up for a nun and/or a priest.
Love Kate Smith--the most American of female singers.
What fun to see Kate on this famous and fun show! Love the the audience reaction when she appeared. And Bennett Cerf's comment at the end.!
How wonderful to see John Daly truly enjoy his guests. Kate Smith, wow.
Kate Smith, what a class act. You don't see them like that anymore...
begs54 -- Yes, indeed - "a class act" sums her up nicely. When she entertained the troops in WWII, I'd wager that she was more warmly received than just about anybody. What a nice gal. And that voice!!!
Kate Smith. "God Bless America". Need I say more?
Surprised it took her this long to appear on the program.
She still sounded good singing it for a number of years. For a while, the Philadelphia Flyers of the NHL played it before their games. There were times when Kate herself arrived at The Spectrum (where the Flyers played) to sing her tune.
Kate Smith was a national treasure.
I am fairly certain that they play her version of GBA at Yankee Stadium during the seventh inning stretch to this very day.
Cert said "again", so it looks like an earlier appearnance was unfortunately lost.
The Flyers had a great winning record when Kate appeared in person. I recall seeing a playoff game and they surprised everybody when they rolled the red carpet out and Kate appeared,the crowd went wild! It is elsewhere on youtube, and fun to watch.
Kate Smith's Voice was Amazing!!! I miss her so much!!!
Kate Smith is an American Treasure. It sounds corny but they DO NOT make people like this anymore.
how true. one of the finest voices of the 20 th century.
She is so remembered by "God Bless America" which is a standard or standards, but she could sing anything, and was really contemporary pop all through her career.
we should all say "God bless America" for Kate.
God Bless America For Kate
You are certainly correct on that one!
Lovely, lovely Kate! People sure loved her! Listen to that audience when she signs in! As for her weight in 1965, she lost two beloved people:
Her mother in 1962, and her dear friend and manager, Ted Collins in 1964. By 1967, she slimmed down very much and just looked gorgeous.
Check out the clip with Dean Martin singing childhood songs. She is dressed in hot pink brocade dress with chinchilla collar. Beautiful!
Kate Smith was an awesome singer!👍
the show was a class act and greatly entertaining!
Mr Daly beat me to it: I don’t know why people would be so surprised that an elderly lady would drive a bus at that time when you consider the socioeconomic events she’d have been through during her lifetime.
Women didn’t work other than very specific jobs like being a teacher or secretary, and a senior woman working, especially in a job that was essentially only performed by men would have been very unusual in the 1950s.
One of the few celebrities to stump the panel.
How lovely to see Arlene Francis rise to say goodbye to the elder woman at the start of the show and to Kate Smith at the end. She showed respect for the elderly as well as for an iconic American entertainer.
back in the day when people used their brains and had manners. Did you notice that the men (gentlemen) on the panel stood to shake hands with each guest. Those were the days!!!
Yes, this octegenarian noticed this with pleasure. And, of course, a joy to see Kate Smith, and all these videos from my youth, when TV was such a pleasure to watch.
Women don't want that anymore. They can buy themselves flowers haven't you heard?
Thanks for posting this gem!
Hello, Everybody: Kate Smith! My pleasure-- your channel is a wonderful tribute to Kate Smith. Always great to see folks trying to keep the memory of these great performers alive!
What's My Line? Thank you! Your channel is fantastic, too - a fascinating peek at these legendary stars just being themselves, without a script. Thanks again for posting the Kate Smith show, and for your comment.
Tony Randall is very much in his 1950s Harvey Weskit/E.K. Hornbeck persona on the most recent couple or three episodes on which he is a guest panelist. (That refers to his characters in the TV show "Mr. Peepers" and in the original Broadway production of the Jerome Lawrence/Robert E. Lee play "Inherit The Wind.")
And when he said, "I wish I may, and I wish I might," that reminded me that, 12 and a half years later (1978), he would tour in a summer-stock production of "The Music Man," playing Harold Hill very, very well - including a 5-week run at the Arie Crown Theater. I still feel privileged to have worked many performances of that show's run (as an Andy Frain usher) during my summer vacation. Tony Randall personally was outstanding - and the production of the show was absolutely first-rate in every respect! (Barney Martin, who would play Jerry Seinfeld's father on "Seinfeld" a decade and a half later, played Marcellus Washburn in that production.)
Noted fact ! Kate gave all proceeds from her hit song God Bless America to the Boy Scouts ! All life long !
I didn't know that! I did know that Irving Berlin gave all of his royalties from the song to the Boy Scouts...
She should have supported the Girl Scouts instead.
@@donnawoodford6641 Says you !
Stu Stewart Yes, I was a co-leader for my son's Cub Scout troop and a membership volunteer for BS of America, giving time to fundraising and coordinating the collection and delivery of school supplies to children in Afghanistan. My friend was the President of the troop. Some of the activities were outdoors, but primarily the males participated in the camps and summer camp trips. Any organization is honorable to the extent that the leaders are upright, respectful, and transparent. Unfortunately, the Boy Scout organization has had to file bankruptcy for reasons of which the public is well aware. I have yet to hear damning information about the Girl Scout organization.
I can remember as a kid, my folks loving Kate Smith and even I as a rock and roll fiend was taken in by her heavenly voice and sweet demeanor.
Oh, how we could use talent with the class of Miss Kate Smith today!
As a fellow rock and roller I concur
What a true lady Kate Smith was. How she thanked John Daly before leaving, and told him, "God bless you" . And how she acknowledged the audience upon her departure
Kate Smith....what a delightful guest
Wow -Kate's show was on for 12 years -started when I was about three years old
The greatest lady singer ever.
Kate Smith's duet with Dean Martin of Let Me Call You Sweetheart was one of the greatest duets in TV history.
The panel really seemed to enjoy this game.
It was a fun game. A fun show.
Not only the panel but the mystery guest as well. They really did seem to enjoy it.
They were putting on a brave face
What a great and gracious lady. An American icon. God bless her.
Kate Smith always brought the sunshine and the rainbow with her wherever she appeared.
Back to a time when the scariest thing in Juarez was a bullfight!
Kate Smith the women with the patriotic voice and the voice of songs that filled our hearts with love
Betty how could this happen how could you pass away and leave us on the last day of this year. We wanted so much to see you reach the hundred-year mark. Nonetheless throughout all these years you were first class performer and a first-class human being. You were definitely a bright and shining star in Hollywood. Oh how we love you and how we shall miss you you were one of a kind a person who seemed truly good and real and unassuming. May you rest in peace
The ELEGANTLY DRESSED Mrs. Kate Smith!! Love this show!! Thanks TH-cam,!! 💅💅💅
Ahahahaha, Tony Randall's face when they announce the guy is a Christmas Tree grower....!
Aaron Sakulich
15:25 -- I hadn't specifically noticed it before, and when I read your comment and went looking for Tony's reaction, I expected to see some kind of comical look of surprise. Instead, his face is so deadpan it's almost as if he's having trouble believing what he's hearing!
@@savethetpc6406 I thought he was trying to figure out the food it could hold. Bennett looked equally dubious.
(Candy Canes)
@@Sylvander1911 You may be right!
@@Sylvander1911 Garlands of popcorn. Baked holiday cookies with the children's names on them or decorations. Garlands of cranberries. And also gingerbread men strung perhaps along with those candy canes.
Two national treasures at one time ! What a treat ! The likes of this calibre shall never happen again!
Kate Smith Song Bird of The South R.I.P. you are loved and missed forever!!
Kate Smith wasn't so much a singer as a force of nature. She had an incredible voice in the 1930s and in the 1970s. It is interesting to watch her sense of her audience in action both at the beginning and at the end of her appearance.
For a time during the game itself, I thought she was getting a bit annoyed that she was not being guessed, but during the interview and exit after the game, it was clear that she had thoroughly enjoyed herself, and she seemed pleased to have fooled the panel. To use one of Arlene's frequent exclamations -- I'm glad! ;) Perhaps it was just the difficulty of using such a high and squeaky voice that made her face look strained at times during the game play.
I loved Kate Smith. She had such a booming speaking and singing voice
What a woman Kate Smith was! And singer!
Kate Smith was a living American icon. She introduced the song, "God Bless America," to this country in a way that compelled you to stand up when she sang the song.
No words are more relevant than for today: "God bless America, land that I love
Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with the light from above..."
And Betty White is still with us to this day 56 years later :)
KATE SMITH HAD A WONDERFUL VOICE......
Came for Kate Smith. Stayed for Betty White.
English Countryside, what a great comment! Totally agree. Both Kate and Betty are beloved icons.

Kate Smith was one of America's great popular singers!
I saw her perform on the Smothers Brothers show--with the Brothers and the Byrds...quite a performer...
I can remember my mother introducing me to her at the grocery store. What a wonderful lady she was.
Miss Dorothy Kilgallen....
Mrs. Dick Kolmar
Wonderful programme.😊
Kate Smith was ALL class!!!
I love how Benett used to sit straight with a serious face to observe the contestant if he got a "No!" For his question.
Everybody loves the GREAT Kate Smith !!! :-)
One of the few mystery stars they didn’t guess!
One of the great singers. The Philadelphia Flyers, she always sang God Bless America before they started. They won more games when she sang. She had a powerful voice and a beautiful one too. Miss you.
what are your thoughts now that they've disowned her?
@@brich2929 Deeply disappointed in a society that turns it's back on it's honored citizens. It's a fact of history that morality changes from time to time and from culture to culture, so I abhor the fact that we are applying our values on people and culture long dead. Slavery and racism were never OK, but virtually every civilization and empire has had it. The classical Greeks had slaves from everywhere, treated women horribly and condoned pederasty. Shall we now ban Plato and Euripides from libraries? George Washington owned slaves--- do we strike him from the history books? How do we learn from history if we strike the imperfect from our past and pretend it never existed?
Very rare to see the panel stumped by a celebrity guest, especially Arlene Francis, who was very sharp-witted!
I crave times like this
Love Kate Smith God Rest Her
it was nice of arlene to stand for the bus driver lady
Bennett's Weekly Pun: He makes a joke that John's sideline is owning a shipyard and calls him "Sir Launch-a-lot"! :) 1:30
Johan Bengtsson - Great pun.
Great to see Kate Smith and also the mention of Cornell.
contestant # 1: bless her heart! :-)
So gracious
Kate Smith - great singer
how can you not love Kate Smith? such grace. not my era, but know enough about her to have mad respect for her contribution and her place in people's hearts...
Interesting that despite her visits to WML and her attempts at a singing career during the 50s, the mention of Margaret Truman's name in 1965 was met by raucous laughter.
Kate Smith Was One of The Very Few Great Celebrities to EVER Fool This Brilliant Panel !!!.....The Voice She Chose to Use was INGENIOUS !!!!!.....
Good old Betty White! 😍😘🙆👏
Other than Color, Betty Whites Hair do is the same Now as it was then.
SHE HAS THE MOST WONDERFUL VOICE , WHEN SHE SINGS THE ANGELIC HOST SINGS ALONE
