Debra Battle I agree! I especially liked the way the panel (particularly Arlene and Bennett) had to guess their old friend Steve's "line" and were totally stumped by it! I also especially liked the skillful yet humorous way that Steve answered the panel's questions. It occurs to me that he might have made a pretty good guest moderator for WML -- better than any that they actually had. I wonder if G-T considered him as moderator for the syndicated WML at all.
Hey, John forgot to ask Mr. Allen if he was familiar with how the game was played! I have to say I love that everyone treated Steve like a normal guest.
I enjoy watching these to see what celebrity received the loudest applause. Jerry got high marks on this episode. I saw one episode with Jackie Gleason and was surprised he did not receive loud applause.
When I was a kid many of us held M.D. fairs to raise money because of him. And all of us in my neighborhood supported each others' fairs by spending money at all of them.
Loved his movies as a child growing up in the 1960s. He always managed to tickle my dunny bone! My father ran into him at the Chase in St. Louis many moons ago!
Jerry was a hell of a comedian but he became sour in his old age. Something tormented him from is past! He did a lot of good with the march of dimes! I use to watch it some times. He was a comedian but in his private life he was a very serious person!
Steve Allen flew from California to New York every other week to host two episodes of "I've Got a Secret". They would tape one episode at 7:00 pm on Monday and broadcast a second episode live at 8:00 pm. This would have facilitated Steve's presence in New York for this appearance on "What's My Line?".
Suzy Knickerbocker (real name: Arlene Mellie) was brought in as a possible replacement after Dorothy Kilgallen's death. Both were Broadway columnists but while Dorothy was an actual reporter Suzy just passed along gossip and sightings.
I was deeply saddened by the passing of Jerry Lewis. He was certainly one of the greats. A real dirty shame what they did to him concerning the MD telethon. I couldnt believe it. He didnt deserve that disrespect. I always watch his movies and never get tired of them. He was one of a kind.
@@plutoplutoan4734 They kept arguing with Jerry and they wanted to shorten time of the telethon and he disagreed, and a lot other stuff. I guess they just wanted him out, he was aging and he was on camera less and less, so I guess they dumped him. Now there isnt even a telethon anymore. Shameful.
He was a really handsome guy I used to love him when I was little girl. I still do I miss him he was funny you could be sad or upset or mad and watch one of his movies and you just automatically be happy again. That's the sign of a true star of somebody who can make you forget the problems of your life
@@fiona1750 Lewis subjected his 5 sons from his first marriage to years of abuse and cut all of them out of his $50,000,000 estate. His youngest boy, Joseph, died penniless and alone from a drug overdose in 2009. He treated his first wife horribly too, engaging in numerous affairs during their marriage. So yes, he was a monster with a capital M.
He is definitely Jewish. And that did appear to be signing himself with the Star of David. Hilarious! (It should be noted that there is no such custom in Judaism!)
Johan Bengtsson I was surprised by that too. It didn't look as if there were any bad feeling between them, but I was expecting a kiss on the cheek between Steve and Arlene.
Without Arlene getting up, Steve would've had to bend down from a great height to reach her cheek which would've looked most undignified. It was practical and smoother just to do a little handshake and off.
Suzy Knickerbocker thought Jerry Lewis was under 35. He did look younger than he really was, but in fact he was 40 here, and hi son, Gary (of Gary Lewis and the Playboys fame) was almost 20.
Good job nobody asked the fireeater "is the product consumed?".....that would've been a real headache to answer!! "Do you mean it's used up or eaten?" "Eaten" "Ermmmmm, well....."
I discovered that movie when I was on Leslie Parrish website. the scene where Jerry (as Heather) was trying to get Leslie to date Rutherford. It was the first time in my adult life I realized JL was funny! I just watched the entire movie the other nite.
@@davidsanderson5918 you are right, this was over 3 years ago, when I first began watching this, like 5 episodes. Now I've seen over 400, and this has become my favorite game show to watch.
Steve Allen by this time was established in and lived in southern California. He was both in and of LA. The WML panelists were New Yorkers more than anything else. No surprise to me that this panel knew from nothing about his business interest.
I was very surprised that the panel did not know of Steve's line. I thought it must have been in the Newspapers and so, but no. Nice suit he wore by the way.
It was shocking and unexpected how Steve Allen died. In 2000, he was in a car accident, and looked to have been fine at first. But soon after, the injuries were too much for him, and he died. He could have lived much longer if it hadn't been for the car accident.
Vahan Nisanian I always try to find out how they died, including Steve Allen. Minutes after the accident, Steve still managed to say that people would do anything to get his autograph. He must be a wonderful man with golden heart.
Yes but even with the accident, he could have lived longer had he sought medical treatment. This is the lesson from the sad circumstances of his death.
Larry Blyden also died of injuries sustained in a car crash, in Morocco, on June 6, 1975. He was 17 days shy of 50. He was the jovial and personable host of What’s My Line from 1972 - 74. He died far too young.
Larry B. was good as the selfish crook who died and got everything he wanted until the thrill of getting it all became boring and tiresome and drove him batty because it was no longer a challenge to get it..on The TWILIGHT ZONE..
Time is just. People see past the glitz and glamour and truly see the individual behind the image, which is why Marilyn Monroe is beloved and power-hungry people like Jerry are criticized.
@@Kareragirl Marilyn Monroe was the biggest slut of all time with many, MANY affairs even DURING her marriages- including WITH Jerry Lewis. So people could love Jerry Lewis' incredible talent despite his grumpiness in later life.
In the few videos I've seen with both Arlene and Suzy, there doesn't seem to be any joviality between the two. I'm guessing that there's no lack of tension between the two.
People were allowed their vices years ago. Celebrities used to smoke like chimneys on The Dick Cavett Show and the Merv Griffin Show, Johnny Carson, etc. LOL.
People smoked in airplanes (on a transatlantic 11-hour flight to London I took once) and in office buildings. Jerry Lewis said he smoked 4 packs a day; he gave it up after his double by-pass heart surgery in 1982.
The conversation @23.05 -23.20 between Jerry and John Daly about Gary (“I’m very proud of him....”) is rather sad and ironic considering the controversy over Jerry’s Will when he died last year.

c 18:00 == only time I can remember a mystery guest using a sticker to sign in. 19:00 RE painful memories of his TV. The 1963 ABC-TV Jerry Lewis variety show was the biggest, most-expensive disaster in TV of that era. If Lewis had a better attitude then, it might have worked. As it was, It sank so quickly ABC could not bail out fast enough. Interestingly enough, the wreckage and survivors of that program evolved in Jan 1964 into a big six-season hit of a variety show with guest hosts -- "The Hollywood Palace." Its producers had the presence of mind to save its record on color videotape, Mr. Goodson. This is another example that Daly could conduct a great interview when he put his mind to it.
Dean's 1965 variety show and Jerry's 1963 variety show make an interesting compare-contrast. Dean's writers and producers brought out the best in his personality and talent.
soulierinvestments Dean let the experts do their jobs, he showed up to shoot the show in his own inimitable style and made it seem like televised cruising. Jerry had to know the lens type on every camera, and so when it came time to be funny.... Was Hollywood Palace in color from the start?. Jerry's show may have had a better chance if it had the color gimmick. ABC was right on the cusp of getting back into color at this point.
What's My Line? Perhaps you Gary or someone else may know...did ABC ever access to color stage facilities for live or tape broadcasts before "Hollywood Palace"?
All the years I've been watching this (I mean, the years covered here), I can't believe I've never kept up with Arlene's changing hair from brunette to blonde and now back to brown. I'm surprised I never noticed her actually changing it while it was going on.
At the end of the show Bennett says to Suzy that he hopes to see her in the NY papers again soon. Was there another newspaper strike in NYC at this time?
EVERYBODY WALKED ON STAGE WITH A SMOKE IT WAS A BIG PART OF TV. CARSON SMOKED EVEN WHEN IT WAS PROHIBITED AS HE HAD AN ASH TRAY HIDDEN UNDER HIS DESK AND OCCASIONALY YOU COULD SEE THE SMOKE RISING...LOL
Mm, one of the few times (possibly the only time - please correct me if I'm wrong) that blindfolds weren't needed for a celebrity guest. (So to clear up any confusion, my observation refers to the first contestant, and not the Mystery Guest.)
Brendan Richards not really sure what you are implying. Jerry Lewis was one of the biggest stars in the world and top box office into the 60’s. if you look at the earlier ‘what’s my line’ episodes with him, all the panelists remark on his noisy welcomes by the crowd.
+Brendan Richards On 1/13/57, the panel was not blindfolded for the appearance of All-Star and future Baseball Hall of Fame member, Robin Roberts, a pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies. Bennett immediately knew who he was, but he wasn't on the show as a baseball player. Instead the line they had to guess was based on his association with the shrimp business.
Arlene and Larry. The WML shape of things to come in 1972. He plays very well, but either he didn't flip G-T's switches or G-T did not turn him on, for he appears on once in a while on WML 1966. Suzy. Wow all over. I like Phyllis Newman, but if I had been G-T I would have offered Suzy the 3rd chair permanently.
Michael Mantle No, I said that because some of them knew Steve personally and I guessed they could have known what he did on the side. So no it wasn't that obvious.
+Purple Capricorn I don't what "Mickey Mantle" said to you, but I can more or less tell from your response here, and from his past comments, that he was being his typically obnoxious self. I banned him from leaving comments on the RUclips channel AGES ago. Just figured I'd let you know that it's beyond a waste a time interacting with this person-- the only one who can see whatever his answer was to you is you! (Another aggravating situation caused directly by the stupid, stupid, stupid, STUPID integration of RUclips comments with Google+. Channel owners have no control whatsoever over the comments left on Google+, except to prevent them from showing up on RUclips.)
What's My Line? Thanks for letting me know. He left a smart remark about it was obvious how they weren't trying to guess who Steve was but what was his line. So I won't respond to him if he leaves another comment just to avoid any conflict on here.
Joe Postove I thought his voice was a give-away with that first answer, but apparently not, since the panel truly thought he was Milton Berle! His other answers disguised his voice better, and his obvious angst over his TV career understandably put the panel in mind of "Uncle Miltie."
Jesus Christ, that thumbnail photo of JERRY LEWIS looks really really evil! Jerry was not a happy man even though he was supposed to be a comedian. He even stiffed his own son in his will.
Downright rare by that time. Oscar Levant smoked in 1965 and talk about substance issues there. Digby Wolfe and Jerry in 1966. Jerry was one of the main definitions of compulsive personality in 1966.
soulierinvestments I can remember Jerry smoking on tv into the 60's, I think. One of the last inveterate smoldering talents. Johnny Carson also smoked on the Tonight Show...almost to the end in 1992, I think. Willing to be corrected here.
+Joe Postove Johnny Carson stopped smoking in front of the camera" in 1985 but continued smoking on the set during breaks. I remember a couple of times they cut back to him too soon and he was putting an ashtray under the desk.
soulierinvestments The worst of the smokers was Garry Moore. He was rarely without a cigarette in hand and mouth on IGAS. I don't know how much smoking he did on his 1958-64 nighttime variety show. I think he used his hands on that show. He retired from regular tv in 1977 (and he was the highest paid star in television in the early sixties...but after his break from 1964-66 and his failed comeback show in the fall of '66 (13 weeks), he was reduced to appearing on and hosting game shows, most notably TTTT) and died at the age of 78 in 1993 of the effects of throat cancer and emphysema. His last appearances are rather sad
Steve didn't sell enginecycles; he sold motorcycles. Steve's dealership was in California. Cars and motorcycles in California are registered with the Department of Motor Vehicles, not the Department of Engine Vehicles. "Motor" is a broad term that includes both internal combustion engines and electric motors. Check any dictionary.

Steve Allen selling motorcycles for a living is the best twist on WML yet. :)
Not for a living....just a side deal...people with $$ can do that
And it's bigger than a breadbox!!!!
I think this was a really fun show!!

I have to say I love that everyone treated Steve like a normal guest.
When Suzi asked Steve if the Product was used to touch people reminded me that the Harley Davidson is often called a Milwaukee vibrator.
Oh bring back these same and graciously days. Makes me sad as things have changed so much 😞
I haven't seen Steve Allen for so long he's so young here!
In 1966, Steve Allen turned 45.
I enjoy watching these to see what celebrity received the loudest applause. Jerry got high marks on this episode. I saw one episode with Jackie Gleason and was surprised he did not receive loud applause.
Larry Blyden became the host for the syndicated show 6 years later.
Steve's dealership building still stands, but it has since been re-purposed as the West Hollywood Animal Hospital.
I find i love jerry lewis, much more than I thought I did.
Gosh he's marvelous.
OMG Jerry was great and phenomenally gorgeous and sexy!
When I was a kid many of us held M.D. fairs to raise money because of him. And all of us in my neighborhood supported each others' fairs by spending money at all of them.
I really loved him for his Muscular Dystrophy work.

Suzy Knickerbocker died at her home in Manhattan on November 11, 2016, aged 98
Arlene Francis, Suzy Knickerbocker and Jerry Lewis made it to the millenium era.
Loved his movies as a child growing up in the 1960s. He always managed to tickle my dunny bone! My father ran into him at the Chase in St. Louis many moons ago!
I wouldn't call Steve Allen a mystery guest here in this episode as it does in the description box 😉

At the peak of his powers, Jerry Lewis, at the time of his appearance.
At the worst of the English language, this comment, at the time of its writing.
Jerry had a wonderful smile. Open and sincere. A child's smile.
Too bad he was a monster in his private life.

I was surprised by that too. It didn't look as if there were any bad feeling between them, but I was expecting a kiss on the cheek between Steve and Arlene.

1 of at least 4 mystery guest appearances by Jerry
In my best Jerry Lewis impersonation possible:
"Oh, Dean!"
Suzy Knickerbocker thought Jerry Lewis was under 35. He did look younger than he really was, but in fact he was 40 here, and hi son, Gary (of Gary Lewis and the Playboys fame) was almost 20.
Ele tinha cara de 32 anos, ou 33, ou 34, até mesmo 35, mas 40 não.
He was 39 not 40
Smokin' hot fire eater and smoking mystery guest - where there's smoke, there's fire!
I was very happy that he spoke so well of his son Gary.
He couldn’t have said otherwise, had to show a nice front. I’m talking in retrospect .
Good job nobody asked the fireeater "is the product consumed?".....that would've been a real headache to answer!! "Do you mean it's used up or eaten?" "Eaten" "Ermmmmm, well....."
Or if you could get heartburn with it..man, that was too easy..to be funny..
2:20 he looks like young Cary grant
vaguely, in "Bringing Up Baby"
It KILLS me when the panelists ask "Is that yes or no?" when John says something like, "One down and nine to go." Like yeah, it was a no.
Sure do miss Dorothy.
"Three on a couch" was HILARIOUS

Bennett immediately knew who he was, but he wasn't on the show as a baseball player. Instead the line they had to guess was based on his association with the shrimp business.
Arlene and Larry. The WML shape of things to come in 1972. He plays very well, but either he didn't flip G-T's switches or G-T did not turn him on, for he appears on once in a while on WML 1966.
Suzy. Wow all over. I like Phyllis Newman, but if I had been G-T I would have offered Suzy the 3rd chair permanently.
soulierinvestments I notice Larry's entrance had that rather distinct foot shuffle, as would be the case during his run as syndicated "WML?" host.
Oh lord no. Suzy was more wooden than my last house.

Real talent. Not like today....
Very bizarre here the panel faking not knowing the professional comedian Steeve Allan
Funny to think Jerry had to book his own son with his wife. 🧐
Great to humanity, bad to his sons!
Why do we have to die?
He was 40 there
Interesting that they didn't have the panel blindfold themselves with Steve Allen.
Michael Mantle
No, I said that because some of them knew Steve personally and I guessed they could have known what he did on the side. So no it wasn't that obvious.
+Purple Capricorn I don't what "Mickey Mantle" said to you, but I can more or less tell from your response here, and from his past comments, that he was being his typically obnoxious self. I banned him from leaving comments on the RUclips channel AGES ago. Just figured I'd let you know that it's beyond a waste a time interacting with this person-- the only one who can see whatever his answer was to you is you!
(Another aggravating situation caused directly by the stupid, stupid, stupid, STUPID integration of RUclips comments with Google+. Channel owners have no control whatsoever over the comments left on Google+, except to prevent them from showing up on RUclips.)
What's My Line?
Thanks for letting me know. He left a smart remark about it was obvious how they weren't trying to guess who Steve was but what was his line. So I won't respond to him if he leaves another comment just to avoid any conflict on here.
Why? It was for his business, and they didn't guess it.
Oh gee...from the very first, I think jerry gives himself away.
Joe Postove
I thought his voice was a give-away with that first answer, but apparently not, since the panel truly thought he was Milton Berle! His other answers disguised his voice better, and his obvious angst over his TV career understandably put the panel in mind of "Uncle Miltie."
Yup. I thought he was dead to rights after the first "uh-uh". In fact, if I had to guess, I think Bennett knew for sure but played along.

Jerry certainly doesn't suffer from too little self-esteem, does he?
...and he had every right to. He was a genius.

Steve Allen was a stitch
Really Steve Allen
Mrs Brooks doesnt look old enough to be a MRS.
Mid 20's plenty old enough
Suzy Knickerbocker made Arlene look rather homely
Jesus Christ, that thumbnail photo of JERRY LEWIS looks really really evil! Jerry was not a happy man even though he was supposed to be a comedian. He even stiffed his own son in his will.
It's so odd to see a very famous mystery guest smoking while on the show.
Downright rare by that time. Oscar Levant smoked in 1965 and talk about substance issues there. Digby Wolfe and Jerry in 1966. Jerry was one of the main definitions of compulsive personality in 1966.
soulierinvestments I can remember Jerry smoking on tv into the 60's, I think. One of the last inveterate smoldering talents. Johnny Carson also smoked on the Tonight Show...almost to the end in 1992, I think. Willing to be corrected here.
Carson smouldered a lot on TV and for decades, too.
+Joe Postove Johnny Carson stopped smoking in front of the camera" in 1985 but continued smoking on the set during breaks. I remember a couple of times they cut back to him too soon and he was putting an ashtray under the desk.
soulierinvestments The worst of the smokers was Garry Moore. He was rarely without a cigarette in hand and mouth on IGAS. I don't know how much smoking he did on his 1958-64 nighttime variety show. I think he used his hands on that show. He retired from regular tv in 1977 (and he was the highest paid star in television in the early sixties...but after his break from 1964-66 and his failed comeback show in the fall of '66 (13 weeks), he was reduced to appearing on and hosting game shows, most notably TTTT) and died at the age of 78 in 1993 of the effects of throat cancer and emphysema. His last appearances are rather sad
9:01 Steve gave incorrect answer a motorcycle uses an engine not a motor though i'm guessing it didnt mislead the panel
Steve didn't sell enginecycles; he sold motorcycles. Steve's dealership was in California. Cars and motorcycles in California are registered with the Department of Motor Vehicles, not the Department of Engine Vehicles. "Motor" is a broad term that includes both internal combustion engines and electric motors. Check any dictionary.
An engine is a form of motor.
Motors are electrical as opposed to internal combustion engines.
Everybody wanted to be Jerry Back in the days of 60s Lean Cut Wholesme Actor,
