Robert Young was a great actor and a real gentleman. He had a superb speaking voice and great presence on the screen.
Absolutely, the most natural Marcus Welby, one of a kind actor
Both Robert Young & Jimmy Stewart were excellent in the movie, Mortal Storm
Robert Young was excellent in Father Knows Best
This is one of my favorite episodes because of the way the last contestant was delt with.
I will not spoil it for anyone, but it is a great show of teamwork!
I’ll watch 😊
Robert Young was a wonderful man, a terrific actor and had impressive talent that you will never see again! Marcus Welby M.D. was one the greatest Medical Drama Television shows of all time !!!!!
He suffered from terrible depression, poor man. He put a brave face on.
@@saran3214 I know it was real sad and it's also said he had a severe drinking problem. But he was outstanding in many ways and a wonderful entertainer!
@@scottmiller6495 I liked him. He had energy. I wish he could have had modern help with his depression, maybe have gotten prescriptions to ease his pain. His wife was the same way, which did not help.
Absolutely, he played Mark so naturally no other actor could've played him better. Very undervalued a unique expressional actor
I like Robert Q. Lewis. Very intelligent, asked smart questions, took the game seriously but still had fun with it and wasn't a stiff.
telephotousa he only got stiff when the male guests were handsome 😉
@@ericmaine: Ha Ha. He was trying too hard to pass as straight.
lol I love John Daly's facial expression at 3:26 after Bennet Cerf calls her a brussel sprout!
Or even a Brussels sprout.
Bennet doesn't get too many laughs (maybe he thinks people don't like him), so when he CAN get a laugh, he probably goes for it
Ouch! Lol my reaction was simelar. Was this supposed to be a compliment?
I loved Robert Young as Marcus Welby. I didn't see Father Knows Best until much later in syndication. He was also good in "The Enchanted Cottage" as a wounded veteran.
Good to know. I'll have to watch that. Thank you.
wonderful, wonderful film ...
@@annakaminski4406 6yt h
i watched and got that enchanted cottage movie. its brilliant!!
I've seen TEC several times. Very moving film. So sweet.
I LOVE Robert Young.
The zoo keeper seemed upset that he messed up. I liked that Arlene kept them going and they the young man appeared much more relaxed at the end.
Arlene’s is very sweet to everyone!
I felt bad for him, although it wasn't really such a major blunder. It was all in good fun, and I thought he did quite well.
It is so sad Palisades Park no longer exists. I wanted to go there because of the song and a beautiful poster of it, only to find out it was torn down decades ago.
Also, Robert Young put on a brave face, but he suffered from severe depression.
and he had a problem with the drink but he carried on ... good actor ... very handsome fellow ...
It was replaced by a Co-Op Apartment Complex.
If you're wondering why it was so funny when Bennett asked if the mystery guest's regular TV show was on the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS), "Father Knows Best" did run on CBS from its premiere in 1950 through 1955. Then CBS canceled the program and NBC picked it up. So at the time of this episode of WML, "Father Knows Best" had been given the axe by CBS. Later on, NBC would cancel the show and CBS would take it back. (In sum, it ran on CBS from 1950-55, then on NBC from 1955-58, and after that on CBS gain from 1958-60.) I'm sure that's what Robert Q. was getting at when he talked about the show having gotten into trouble but was now sitting pretty.
ToddSF 94109 Thanks, Todd, for explaining this! I was too young (born 1956) to notice this at the time.
It was fun to hear Robert Young talk about his 1948 movie "Sitting Pretty" (John Daly brought it up); it's one of our favorite movies. It was meant to be a Robert Young/Maureen O'Hara vehicle, I've read, but it was taken over by Clifton Webb playing the role of Mr. Belvedere. It was followed by two sequels starring Clifton Webb as the title character. I would recommend all three of the movies highly. In fact, it strikes me as possible that an affinity for WML might also indicate an affinity for Mr. Belvedere.
John Daly was exceptionally petulant in this episode until Robert Young's set was almost over. I mean WOW! I have seen him pissy and moody before, but he was shooting daggers out of his eyes until Young got him in a better mood. Not a fun episode at all.
@@nanaberry4120 andropause perhaps plus he did do a lot of govt work traveling the world in some cases. ****Andropause is basically male menopause without flow obviously****
Leave it to Arlene -- she ALWAYS noticed when a male contestant was attractive. Mr. Sourhada had a wonderful smile.
Mr Sohurda bullies hippopotamuses? +What's My Line, is that what was said?
+Joie Fulton I'm not WML, but, yes. 'Bullies, and cajoles.' I assume it's basically 'pushes in the appropriate direction, sometimes forcefully.'
@@joiefulton4015 I noticed that too
And Bennett noticed the attractive women
It’s weird that the company that the private detective worked for wanted her to change her name, but they allowed her to appear on national television. 🤔
Obfuscatory (from the verb obfuscate-to confuse, bewilder, stupidly). Thank you Bennet for the word of the day!
Robert Young was one of my favorite TV stars.
Definitely, only started watching Marcus Welby last year. A unique one of a kind expressional actor
I liked Robert Young in Marcus Welby MD.
I never knew that there were tunnels of love that wasn't ridden on water. Some of the panel didn't know either. Learn something knew every day.
Lois Simmons - The ones in Long Beach and Santa Monica were on land and were more scary than romance inducing.
8:55 John regarding the Private Detective first guest: "98% of her work is Industrial work..checking on money that may be disappearing in an office, etc..." Bennett: "Or husbands who get too industrious." lol
I got to go on the Universal Studios tour in 1969, and remember the guide telling us (...as the tram took us down one of the 'residential' streets...)..that house used by Marcus Welby.....USED to be the old home of Beaver Cleaver. The house just to the left of that.....was the home of the Munsters.
I went on that tour in 1967 and got the same info. It was fascinating. Did you get to see the Pyscho house up on the hill? Our tour guide generously pointed out that the path leading up to it was called the Psycho path. There were groans all around. Bennett would probably have laughed himself sick.
Yay! I googled Robert Young and he was only married to one woman. So rare in the entertainment field.
On what other show could you possibly be introduced to an operator of a Tunnel of Love and a hippopotamus trainer? So many elements make this such a classic and enjoyable show. I smile with each episode.
Love Robert Young
I think Robert Q was the best game player of all the guest panelists. He had a great night here--he figured out that the second guest worked in an Amusement Park and the fourth guest worked in a zoo. He also guessed Robert Young's identity.
Agree, but he laid a major bomb with the "drowning your date" joke. Ugh.
Young's final television series was Marcus Welby, M.D. (1969-76), co-starring a young James Brolin. This show earned Young an Emmy for best leading actor in a drama series.
He also did Sanka ad's into the 1980's. In 1984 and 1988 he returned in two Marcus Welby TV movies. He retired from acting in 1989. In 1991 he attempted suicide by inhaling car exhaust, but couldn't get the car started.The repair guy came out to the house to fix the car and saw the hose hooked to the tail pipe and called the police. Robert then was evaluated by a mental health facility for help with his life long depresssion. He died in 1998 at 91.
Robert Young became a star when he appeared with the previous week's MG, Helen Hayes, in her Oscar winning performance in The Sin of Madelon Claudet
Can't believe how much my grandfather looked like Robert Young when he was younger. To my dad, aunt, and uncle, it certainly was "Father Knows Best!"
Wow, Arlene looks stunning in that episode... well she always does but something with the hairdo, the flower and her smile. I've said it before and I say it again, Martin Gabel was a very lucky man.
Arlene looks lovely ... very flattering hat ...
Haha John Daly @3:24...my reaction to that joke exactly!!!
It was so funny seeing Mr. Daly say “eight down four to go” when you could see they only had two to go he really wanted to get the panel 😂
Messrs. Robert Q. Lewis and Steve Allen were my faves! Forget the other guest panelists!
I also enjoy the shows with Tony Randall.
Robert Q gets off a fairly funny line with the private detective (oh man, even a stopped clock is right twice a day) "I'm ready for a pinch"...but I wonder if it was just not thought worth a giggle or was not understood?
Daylight saving time started in May in 1957.
Not before then?
At the end lately, it's been saying that guests were flown courtesy of American Airlines. Does that mean all those years in the beginning that contestants flew in on their own dime, and that as the show grew and evolved, they reached out to folks and actually paid for them to travel here? I wonder if they also started to put the guests up in hotels too?
Robert Young is perhaps best known for the TV-series "Father Knows Best" which ran for 203 episodes 1954-60.
*****
Yet, when he is guessed he sobers up completely, so maybe he was just playing....
His later series Windows on Main Street was a total flop and lasted only one season.
Yeah, I agree there. But he bounced back as Marcus Welby, M.D.
Johan Bengtsson i liked him in The Canterville Ghost with the great Charles Laughton
orgonko the wildly untamed I wish someone would make a remake of that movie.
"Do you do anything with your hands"...and then the hilarity ensues!
Loved Robert Young in "Bachelor Knows Best" selling his decaf coffee.
See, I told you that new girl at work was staring at me...
Arlene was not only smart and pretty talented but also kind - the same goes for Dorothy
One of several episodes where Dorothy made her hair up to look like Arlene's maybe subconsciously wishing she wasnt asked to be the "serious panelist"
I don't like Miss Arlene in hats. (this is the first I have seen her in one) They make her look old. She always looks young with flowing hair.
When it comes to women's hats, I hate the ones from the 1950's, including this one. They all look like hats for old ladies to me. No wonder, when Jacqueline Kennedy showed up in the public eye in 1960, people liked her pillbox hats so much -- all those 1950's hats were no hard act to follow.
At least it isn't the horrible lettuce hat.
You should see the video where she comes in wearing a hideous hat. She explained her husband bought it. Then he walks in to be beside her on the panel. He loves the hat, so all she do is say she loves it, but you can tell she hates it.
I like Robert Q. Lewis, But I wish he would quit trying so hard to seem like hes interrested in women. I've heard a lot of comments saying that he might be gay, that doesn't bother me but it bothers me when he over does all of the comments that he makes towards women. It's almost like every time a beautiful woman comes out as a contestant I expect him to make some kind of remark towards her and it's just really annoying and time consuming
There's a lot of casual comments in these 50's shows that would get a guy fired in today's atmosphere.
He tried a bit too hard.
@amborola1b: Why not? If you were an average John or Jane appearing for a few brief moments on a nationally televised show and a well known celebrity paid you a flattering comment how would you feel? What is wrong recognizing attractiveness? Arlene Francis made several comments directed toward some handsome male contestants but I've not seen any negative comments directed toward her in this matter.
@@jp0308 I agree. She was very observational about a good looking man or flirtatious. Bennett gets ripped apart not Arlene. I don't think either one should although once in awhile it's tiresome. And sometimes fun.
I think that back then they may have been just throwaway lines whereas these days you have to tread a lot more carefully.
Does an yone happen to know for how much longer, after thhis show, "Miss Matot" continue to live? I would LUV to know what the year of her death was.
Difficult to say since, I don't believe we know what her real name is. (As indicated by Daly that the detective agency did not want her name to be known.)
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas ❤
While it was a different spelling and not her real name, the first challenger evoked memories of one of the most memorable and important goals in New York Rangers history: the one scored by Stephane Matteau in double overtime of the 7th game against the NJ Devils. That goal propelled the Rangers into the 1994 Cup finals en route to their first Stanley Cup championship in 54 years. MATTEAU ... MATTEAU ... MATTEAU
ruclips.net/video/5ziarOEosIc/видео.html
@Lois Simmons: Ms. Simmons, you always amaze me with your knowledge of sports. I bet sitting with you at a ballgame would be great fun!
A friend said he was watching that Rangers game, but had lost the video feed before the winning goal was scored. At the time Matteau was a relatively unknown player, so when he heard the announcer he thought he had dropped something heavy in the booth on his foot....ma toe! ma toe! ma toe! Very droll.
"Father Knows Best" was cancelled by CBS after one season. The show was picked up by NBC for the next three seasons and cancelled by NBC. CBS picked it up again for its final two seasons.
I knew Robert Q. Lewis was a panelist, because there's no mention of him in the top line. He's the only guest panelist who is never mentioned.
The zoo contestant would have won the full prize if Bennett, as usual, hadn’t opened big mouth out of turn.
in 1969 -I and my father saw a hippopotamus in the mississippi river- Red Wing minn.
Such class from everone.
Robert Q, I was born 30 years too late or he was born 30 years too soon. He has a great sense of humor and is one of the more intelligent guest panelists.
Louise Matot is so beautiful.
Did Robert Q have a big time radio variety show on CBS late in the 50's? I seem to remember that from someplace, but I don't remember where.
Joe Postove He was a game show host himself in the early 1950s with "The Name's the Same".
I love Q going for dark humor of drowning his date. Ahead of his time
Daughter: Mummy, will the cash prize on this game show ever increase after being on the air over 5 years?
Mummy: Well, your father says it will, and your Father Knows Best.
+Mark Cooper No, they will not.
PRIVATE DETECTIVE
OPERATES TUNNEL OF LOVE
HIPPOPOTAMUS KEEPER, BRONX ZOO
Arlene's hair was a bit messy under her hat. It would have looked better more contained. Dorothy's was lovely.
How do you drown your date, Robert Q Lewis would be cancelled today
Cancelled only by useless little babies.
Private detective, hmmm? That's sort of like a spy. Should we call her "Mattot Hari", then?
I wonder how do you test seasick pills. I guess you go on boat rides and see if they work. Lol!
BELGIUM! :D
Funy how Daly referred to the weight of the animal of the last contestant as "weighing over a tonne".. did anyone in the US know what that meant at all, given the Imperial weight they use?
Lars Rye Jeppesen In the USA we use a modified form of weight units, not the same as the British Imperial ones. An American ton is simply 2,000 pounds (907.03 kg), sometimes called a short ton. The long ton in Britain is 2,240 pounds (1,016.05 kg) which is 20 hundredweight of 112 pounds each, and those are equal to eight stone of 14 lb each. When we split from Britain, we kept the same pounds and ounces, but at least we went more or less decimal on larger quantities.
Oh, and we call 1,000 kg a "metric ton" rather than a tonne.
The metric tonne is ~2204 lb. A friend of mine yrs. ago worked for Westinghouse Nuclear Power near Charlotte, NC. A huge part had been brought in & the British rep had told them how much it weighed. They were lowering it onto a steel "table" with a guy underneath with attachments to measure table deflection. They heard him screaming "Pick it up! Pick it up!" The British dude had given the weight in metric tonnes...
Daly referred to a ton, in the US that is 2240 lbs. A tonne is 2204 lbs. He is South African and could have meant either term. And yes we know what a ton is, it is a common expression. Why wouldn't we? Hippos can weigh a lot more than a ton. The males never stop growing.
I hear sirens at 9:10.
What did Arlene say at 23:20?
is it an animal who spits lol
Lorna Badeo Thanks : ) I don't know why I couldn't distinguish what she said at the time I commented to be honest. lol!
haha perhaps distracted at the time :)
yes ,what did she say ,please?
Was Robert Q sick at this time? He looks awfully skinny
No he wasn't. OK?
Who put that had on Arlene, Not a good look
voice too recognizable. kills the game
,
Didn't Mr. Young commit suicide?
Attempted much later in life, but he recovered and reached for medical support and lived out the remaining of his life outliving his wife to 91
No
Gig Young did
So sexist, so stereotypical of the times.
Don't be so silly
The audience is really starting to bug me (even though they're probably all dead by now). I've noticed this on MANY episodes. Every time someone says, "Can I avail myself to your services?" even when it's a normal job; not funny at all, they HAVE to laugh. They can't NOT laugh on this show, whether something is funny or not
