Floyd Patterson's signature is absolutely beautiful!
Speechless. I wish WML had gone color two years earlier. Dorothy's Goddess of Spring outfit must have been something to see live and in color.
yes but everybody's skin is less flattering in colour.
I loved the flowers in Dorothy's hair and liked the way they accented the flowery pattern of her dress, but I thought she looked like she was dressed for a summer lawn party. Odd garb for the beginning of February! Perhaps it was due to the "heat wave" of 42 degrees that John mentioned. I have noticed that in the middle of a very cold winter, as soon as the temperature goes above 40, some people have a tendency to go overboard by wearing shorts and such. Maybe this was Dorothy's much more elegant version of that kind of warm spell celebration.
Based on John's comments on the previous recent episodes, January 1965 had some brutal weather on Sundays in NYC. They had to brave snowstorms on three of them and bitter cold on another. A nice day with seasonal temperatures must have felt glorious.
It also happens that Feb. 7 is about the mid point of winter.
She looked great! And since it was Dorothy's last Spring, i hope it was a happy one for her.
Unfortunately the networks didn't go to full color until 1966. A year after she was murdered.
I always liked Patterson. He was a gentleman.
Thank you for the nice comment
@@floydpattersonii4996 I meant the real Floyd, my friend.
Victor Borge was such a treasure. One of the few whose humor spans all ages... I appreciated him as a child as much as I do today.
I like Victor's humour quite a bit. But I don't like it when he hams it up for the camera doing silly things, pausing for laughter, losing precious guest time. The panel has all this time but these poor guest are rushed like crazy from getting rushed through
He cheats all the time but he’s such a laugh, nobody cares! 😄
Incredibly talented man
@@El_Ophelia Borge was a silly buffoon. He was as funny as a parking ticket.
@blueduck5589 His audiences disagreed. Every appearance was packed and the laughter was non-stop. I saw him onstage around the time of this episode.
Now, like Groucho, he may not have been the best fit for this panel show but he was popular.
I suspect that this is the only time I will hear a surfboard classified in the broad category of boats.
The interplay between Victor and Dorothy on this episode is hysterical.
...Yup. Victor (to Dorothy): "Why don't we get our own show?" Arlene: "What makes you think you haven't?" :-D
"You can't AskThat ,!😐🤨😐😐"
"YesICan.!..🤨😐😐🤨🤨🤨"
😂😂😂
And that's the end of the Juggler opening, which began in on April 8, 1962.
A week later, the show would have its 15th anniversary, and with it, a brand new opening, a brand new opening theme, and a brand new logo. The brand new logo would carry over to the end of the original CBS run, and also be used for the Syndicated revival (1968-1975).
Yes, I know, but this was so superior. I really wish they never felt the need to change a wonderful intro that was working just fine. I miss these original intros so much. How sad to see it go.
Most accurate quote of the 20th century goes to Victor "Delay The Game" Borge, when he announced, "I'm not very good at this guessing"
Floyd Patterson...what a gentleman for being in such a brutal sport.
Heads up, folks. There's going to be an unexpected break in the normal posting schedule due to personal matters I need to attend to. I apologize for the delay, but it's unavoidable. Thank you for your continued support over the last 14 months or so. Regular daily postings of new shows will most likely resume on November 1st.
What's My Line? Gary, I have nothing to say other than that you gotta do what you gotta do. Just don't go quiet on us forever.
No need to apologize. Take care and welcome back! :-)
What's My Line? Calm and faithful, we will wait for your return. :)
I hope it's nothing too serious, Gary. We'll all be missing you until your return! :)
Iam here again
Cerf + bored, good one, John! Also loving Kilgallen's dress and hair decor; she is listed on a credit on a Torchy Blane movie as 'idea by Dorothy Kilgallen' which was lots of fun to watch last month on Turner Classic Movies.
Interesting sidebar: Floyd Paterson's manager (Cus Damato) never wanted Patterson to fight Sonny Liston because he ( Damato) knew Liston would mop up the floor with Patterson. But during a visit to the White House President Kennedy urged Patterson to fight Liston for the heavyweight championship. Liston defeated Patterson for the title in a little over 2 minutes in 1962 and then knocked him out in 1963 again in the first round.
I have read many comments about the various ways that the panelists and guests shake hands at the end of a segment. But I have never seen a comment on Dorothy's tendency to tilt her head to the left at the moment that she shakes hands.
The very act of handshaking is a peaceful gesture. Since most people are right-handed (and thus the word "sinister" for left-handed developing a negative connotation), shaking hands was a way to show someone that you weren't holding a weapon in preparation to use it.
According to what I read, tilting the head in the manner that Dorothy did is a further sign of peace, friendship and submission. It exposes more of the neck and throat to the other person, areas of vulnerability (windpipe, major blood vessels).
Lois Simmons A tilt when shaking hands is quite common and natural I think. Peter Cook did it too. I can even feel myself doing it with certain company! To me it has a sense of extra focus or concern.
Bennett (once again) jumped on giving the answer. This time Arlene was having her turn and he piped in with Floyd Patterson. I hated when he did that.
That was Bennet's worse habits he had, always opening his big mouth out of turn and giving things away. I never
understood why the producers of the show continually let him get away with that.
Actually, when I watched it again, Bennet did not talk out of turn. Arlene could only ask one question anyway, so
it was his turn. But he was guilty of talking out of turn many times.
Thank you very much for posting these videos! I especially enjoyed this one and find it difficult not to think of Mr. Borge breaking out his punctuations!
Patterson fought for 7 1/2 more years and got several title shots, but he was never the same fighter after his bruising two one round KO's by Sonny Liston.
john daily and his stunning word salad gets them every single time, no exceptions!!
Our great Ingemar Johansson became World Heavyweight Champion when he defeated Floyd Patterson in 1959. Floyd was very popular in Sweden all of his life.
Johan Bengtsson
Have you seen the WML episodes featuring Ingemar Johansson as a guest? In the first one, from 1959, he was a "Mr. X," with the panel blindfolded, but not the official mystery guest, so the game was played with the rules for regular contestants. (I won't give away how that turned out, in case you haven't seen it yet.) In the second one, from June, 1960, he was a mystery guest, who was fully appreciated and applauded by the studio audience. Check them out through the links below, if you haven't already:
What's My Line? - Ingemar Johansson; Burl Ives; Martin Gabel & James Roosevelt [panel] (Feb 1, 1959)
What's My Line? - Ingemar Johansson; Eamonn Andrews [panel] (Jun 19, 1960).
I've always heard the two men were actually very good friends who would frequently visit each other.
Floyd defeated him in their next 2 fights, they were life long friends.
Floyd Patterson was so humble you would never know he was heavyweight champion
Floyd Patterson...............read the chapter about him "The reluctant champion" in the book "King of the world" about the early Ali career........an incredible read of a gentleman who never wanted to hurt another human in the ring but fought with dignity and class........the sport book by the way was written by a Pulitzer prize winning author and great read......
Which is exactly true. I'm his son and never understood how he survived in a business where the main objective is hurt. He always wanted to win fights but not at the expense of another person's well being. Never had a killer instinct
@@floydpattersonii4996 An honor.
Victor Borge's genius is a JOY!🎈🎈🌞
There was a set of twins in the Air Force and were probably still in at the time this was taped. One of them went by the first name, "Buck." They were both officers, both made it to at least Major General, and I think they were both original Thunderbirds pilots when they were based at Luke AFB. They flew the wind positions. They may not have been original pilots of the 'Birds, but they were both on the team at the same time soon after they formed after WWII.
Bill & Buck Pattillo. Cuthbert Augustus "Bill" Pattillo passed away in 2014 and Charles Curtis "Buck" Pattillo is still with us (I believe). I wonder how many twin brothers went into the military together and served together?
Baker Street would open for previews in a few days and have a regular run of 311 performances on Broadway.
I got a kick out of Victor's mini-conferences and teamwork with Dorothy! And John didn't even say a word to stop it! Maybe his cold was affecting his reactions as well as his voice.
I think it was that John and Dorothy (and the rest of the panel) knew that Borge was terrible at the game, was on the panel only for comic relief, and needed all the help he could get. Otherwise his turns would have taken forever.
It was good for the audience for the comedy
Arlene's quip about John talking so long the twins got "promoted in the meanwhile shows she had already figured out they were military officers but she prolonged the game to fill the time. "Getting promoted" had such a military connotation to it.
Wow! Marvin McNickle was the commander of the 13th Air Force which was HQ in the Philippines while I was there in '71-'72. He was a Lieutenant General by then. I never knew he had a twin brother among the General ranks (but then, how would I know? It's not like I hung out with him).
An open letter to Gary at the What's My Line? editing station in California: Please take all the time you need to resume the "love job" you were doing. It was a job you were doing out of love because of course there is a zero chance that Fremantle Media will pay you to do it. If any contributor here feels desperate curious about episodes that he or she hasn't seen yet, you should feel glad you watched what you watched.
Cerf hates to be stumped. That's why he speaks out of turn. He has to be on.
I have been watching all the episodes ...thought I'd never get to 1965 :)
This is my third time around. Actually fourth, if you include watching it live when I was a kid.
Here we have one of legendary Cus D'amato's TWO heavyweight champions....Floyd Patterson and some guy named MIKE TYSON...

It always makes me laugh that when there are two guests, they always have to share that one chair. It seems so unprofessional.
I've wondered about that. I think Goodson-Todman could have afforded another chair.🥴
My grandfather is an acquaintance of Floyd’s younger brother Raymond who lives in Sweden.
I didn't knew thst Floyd Patterson Died
Arlene is so cute. She has this game down so pat that she's answering her own question before the surfboard lady can open her mouth.
Arlene was also adept at reading John''s body language as in when he was about to flip over a card. Sometimes she would change her question in mid-sentence to avoid a no.
Love Dorothy's flower dress. Had she lived past 1965, she probably would have fit in nicely with the San Francisco hippies.
Dorothy a hippy? Never. Too dirty. Now I can see Arlene smoking grass.
I can't see Dorothy as a hippie either. Too conservative and too ambitious. She might have gotten into some of the fashion elements that entered the mainstream as a result of the hippie movement, though. I can picture her with long, straight hair, love beads and/or a medallion, dangling earrings, and a fringed leather jacket over a brightly colored mini-dress, with go-go boots. Maybe a beaded headband and tinted glasses to complete the effect.
Kind of a dowager hippie, huh?
Joe Postove A Kilgallen column from 1965 indicated that she was familiar with the term "hippies." She evidently knew hippies were interested in much more than Bob Dylan. She cited their interest in extrasensory perception -- ESP. Therefore, Kilgallen wrote, they could enjoy the new Broadway musical On A Clear Day You Can See Forever. ESP is a plot point in it. Does anyone want to read her exact words in 1965?
If you do, you need to understand, as I'm sure you do, that the hippie concept of getting freebies ended a long time ago, therefore the Newspapers.com website has the right to charge money for you to read this particular Kilgallen column as it appeared in Kannapolis, North Carolina on September 9, 1965. If you click below, you barely can see the headline of the column and Kilgallen's "profile pic." Maybe newspaper columnists used that term back then.
www.newspapers.com/newspage/48712086/
They can charge whatever they want. They won't make anything from me. There is plenty of free content, including free archival newspaper copy on the internet. Probably free DK columns too.
The twins look old enough to have started out in the Army Air Force before the separate branch of the Air Force was formed after WWII. However, since they were not West Point Boys, it seems unusual that they would reach the rank of Major General. I wonder if they started out at the bottom?
They actually did start out in the Army Air Corps! Melvin is my grandfather and Marvin is my Great Uncle :). They graduated from The University of South Dakota in June 1936 and received their wings in October 1937. In 1943, Melvin, Lieutenant Colonel at this time, was shot down over the German border and became a POW at Stalag Luft III until it was liberated in January of 1945.
+Katie Grothaus
Always great to hear from a relative of a challenger on WML. Above all, thank you for your family's service to country.
@@kegrotha And I served with your Great Uncle when he was LTGEN. Well, not alongside him, but in the vicinity.
Notice that Floyd Patterson referred to the then-heavyweight champion as "Cassius Clay." Muhammad Ali always considered that a personal affront, and he punished Patterson when they fought nine months later in Las Vegas. Ali could have finished Patterson at any time, but he deliberately made him go 12 rounds until the fight was stopped.
HAHAHA..Wrong! Ali couldnt have finished him anytime he wanted..In their 2nd bout(research it) Patterson was actually ahead on 2 cards before they stopped it in 7rounds because of his eye injury! Don't comment your opinion on a factual sport event..You probably don't even know that Ali actually quoted that out of all his opponents.. Floyd Patterson he felt was his "most skilled opponent". You can look up that fact as well. :)
My, but that's a lovely Moo Moo y've got on Dorothy dear
Arlene is wearing that gown that I love again. And her brooch and earrings appear to be a matched set, which coordinates elegantly with her diamond heart pendant. Despite her cold, she looks especially lovely in this episode, imho.
SaveThe TPC In case you're not informed; Have a look at the top comment on this page. Sincerely yours, SW. What's My Line? - Floyd Patterson; Victor Borge [panel] (Feb 7, 1965)
SuperWinterborn
Thank you for letting me know. I had not seen that comment. I sent you a private message via RUclips. I hope you will be able to access it and reply.
SaveThe TPC ....and I have sent *you* a private message via RUclips! ;) (I can't receive messages through YT)
SuperWinterborn
Hmm... Well, I haven't gotten a notification about any other messages from you besides this one. I have previously gotten notifications about and access to private messages which were replies to private messages that I had sent, so I thought I could receive PMs, but I can't figure out how to access yours now. Since you and I both value our public anonymity, I don't know how to resolve this.
SaveThe TPC I'll try to send you my e-mail addr. once again, via your YT account. Then answer whether you have received it or not here. If you stay tuned in on this page after given me a negative reply, I'll post the addr. here. You write "Ok" when you have written my mail-addr. down, then we both delete our last messages.
August 2024......The twins reminded me of Mark and Scott Kelly, the twin ex-astronauts. Mark was on the shortlist for VP to Kamala Harris, the Presidential nominee.
8:32 "on the GWOUND." 😆
Victor Borge was a very talented man.
This just in: Look what I found on the WML Facebook Group.
s12.postimg.org/pqu0cowf0/092_March_02_1952.jpg
A faded color photo from a lost episode. This one comes from episode #092 (March 02, 1952). This might have been from game 2, which had a female contestant who sells Hosiery.
The male guest panelist filling in for Bennett Cerf is British actor Roland Young, who died a year later. This was his only WML appearance. The mystery guest that night was professional Boxer Joe Louis, also his only WML appearance.
*****
Thanks so much for sharing that photo with those of us who are not in the FB group! Get a load of Hal Block's face as he looks at the contestant -- classic! I don't think I've ever seen a full view of the panel base before. The hand squeezing the Stopette bottle looks very odd!
SaveThe TPC Hal Block looks like he is saying "Would you lean over a little closer"!
*****
Lol. Dorothy and Arlene don't look much like themselves in this photo, and I don't know what Roland Young usually looked like, but in this picture he looks a little bit like Jack Benny to me.
There is a FaceBook group?
The sharpness of the contrast, coupled with the brightness of the few different colors, suggests that this a colorized black and white photo. Very nice to see, either way. :-)
*_MAJOR GENERAL IN U.S. AIR FORCE_*
*_MAKES SURFBOARDS_*
If Victor Borge doesn't know how to play this game, why do they keep having him back?!
As somebody said about Groucho, you don't hire Borge not to be Borge. G-T knew what they were getting.
5 minute mark, I think it's some kind of a compulsion for John. He just truly wants to hear himself talk and in this case the twins said yes, to Arlene's question, and John is going to try to disagree with them about their own jobs. They're looking at him like, you're crazy dude.
Victor: "Hey every body, Look at me!"
Daly and Cerf act like a married couple. Daly favors Cerf more than the others. I think he clues Cerf. 🙄😁
They said that a surfboard cannot in any way be defined as an instrument. As far as I know there are not established rules on what constitutes an instrument on WML. So...is not a surfboard an instrument of locomotion (which is an act or the power of moving from place to place)? The waves propel the surfboard from place to place thereby making it an instrument of the waves. Is that not right?
This show is certainly tightly edited, Gary. And so many of the other shows are rather sloppy. Did someone tidy this up along the way?
My twin uncles are named Melvin & Marvin. I always thought those were goofy names. Maybe not so goofy in their generation.
Oh boy. Women were so much more like women back then. Carole Ridings almost makes me want to go back in time and age 15 years to ask her out.
Victor Borge was a real great Dane!
Dorothy was not on drugs or drunk she was just getting over a slight case of phnomina
Without reference to this particular show, there are certainly viewers who have convinced themselves that Dorothy never appeared drunk or high in any episode of WML That is their story and they are sticking to it.
preppy socks Yep I'm one of those viewers. Mark Shaw vouches for many who knew her in real life who said she was not an alcoholic or addicted to drugs....and of course they were asked because of how she met her death. In fact I reckon I drink more than she does....so what?!?
At 21:05 does Daly call Victor Borge 'Richard'?
Victor Borge was useless on this show, painful....
About Floyd Patterson vs. Muhammed Ali ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Ali_vs._Floyd_Patterson
Yeah, Patterson would hope to fight Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali) until the end of the first round!
What Carole did was tum surfboarding into
an international business operating out of the
back of her father's automotive garage.
"Three years after she first tried surfing here,
she is president, vice-president, and sales manager
of United States Surf Board Sales, her own surf
board manufacturing company.
"The University of Miami graduate started out
building the boards for friends. ('I've always
made things, but not out of fiber glass.') Now
she sub-contracts the boards to be custom-made
by another firm, according to her design and
adaptations to the Florida surf.''
The article continues, " 'Surfing will be even
bigger here than it is in California,' she predicted. 'Not because of the surf but because of
the easy access to the ocean. No one is more
than 20 minutes from a beach and people in
Broward are recreation-minded. Extract KKG_THE_KEY_VOL_82_NO_3_AUTUMN_1965
Victor Borge is ANNOYING! I apologize for shouting, but feel it necessary...
imsixftsix This is nothing compared to previous appearances he made. I tell you....you'd be climbing up the wall watching those.
Did anyone else notice that all the panelist except Dorthy stood up to shake hands out of respect for the Generals???
Flaaustin Considering the menfolk always get up anyway to shake hands, all that happened there was one lady got up for a change and one lady didn't. I don't think that implies an agenda,
Why should she stand up? They did nothing extraordinary.
So ?
I usually like Borge, but here he is just really annoying.
Number 750
Victor was the most clueless panelist ever. One thing that sometimes bothers me about this show is the fuss they make about donating the small amounts of money to charity, when the were paying celebrities performance fees of around $1000 a visit, I heard somewhere.
His schtick probably didn't seem so predictable at the time, given that his appearances were spaced out over several years. We see them all on RUclips in a compressed period and so the regular clueless bits, the "I can't see" bits and the forgetting to remove the blindfold bits seems more annoying than they probably did at the time.
Victor was terrible at the game, which he freely acknowledged, but many people found him extremely entertaining and funny, including yours truly.
Todd Brandt I agree, his hesitance and dragging questions out could be daunting but I find him terribly endearing and sweet, much less intrusive than some of the other guest panelists
Victor Borge guesting on a variety show of the day or on Seseme Street when I was growing up was brilliant but here he's absolutely painful. This is the second one I've seen with him and I HOPE there's no more. I do have to admit that the McDime joke was good and Dorothy feeding him the questions was spectacularly cute and funny, still a groaner.
Bye idiot Victor...GOING TO ANOTHER EPISODE WITHOUT YOU!!!
I've always thought Daly's stupid nonsense talk was not funny & just slows down the show & wastes time.
It isn't nonsense, at least not that I've ever heard. It is wordy, deliberately so, but it is always responsive to the situation. If you make the effort to follow it, there's almost always a surprising amount of information.
Borga is NOT funny.
What the heck, Just kindly asking how u were ,no worries won't bother you again. So sorry for caring. P.S. to show good faith, am not following or subscribed to ur channel.
borge was not a good panelist
Good Lord, Dorothy never had very good taste in hair styles...this one is particularly foolish looking. Reading the prior comments it looks like I am in the minority
It was a not-uncommon look then. During the early-to-mid sixties women often adorned their hair...with ribbons, flowers, even broaches.
I think her look tonight is appropriate for a teen...not a 50 year old woman but the styles of the day were particularly youngish and she was in style.
The second contestant looked a bit anorexic, huh? Cute but no meat.
So...because she has a thin build, she therefore must have an eating disorder? Honestly and with all due respect, Joe, sometimes I wonder about these comments you leave!
Elsie M. I was genuinely concerned. I was not making a joke. Whenever, from now on, I tell a funny, I will preface it by JOKE ALERT...WARNING: JOKE COMMENTARY COMING! I thought she was beyond thin, Elsie. She looked sunken in to me.
Joe Postove Oh, I never assumed you were joking. I did realize it was a semi-serious comment, but I seemed to easily interpret it as one of those "too skinny for my tastes, so automatically = anorexia!" types of comments. My mistake. I figured the lady probably surfed herself, so that attributed to her physique. Eh, who knows?!
