    Haha, Louis Jourdan must be one of the best mystery guests! Although he didn't stump the panel, the fact that he kept going as long as he did (with his mouth going as long as it did inadvertently dropping hints), he was masterful at this. BRAVO!!!! Fantastic performance!

    As strange as it was to hear Louis Jourdan affect an American accent with certain things that gave his French origins away (such as the throaty French "r" and the occasional misaligned vowel), I found it quite fun and I think he did a good job stumping the panel for a good while. I think he also had fun doing it, which is part of what made it fun for the audience. He turned 33 years old on June 19, 1954, not quite six months before this appearance on WML. I note that he was 6 feet 1 inches tall (185 cm), which meant they didn't have to have him stand on a box when doing close up scenes with taller actresses in heels (or have the actress stand in a hole outdoors), and he was handsome the way movie stars were once assumed to be. I note he was married just once to Berthe Frédérique "Quique" Jourdan -- from 1946 until her death in 2014, 68 years. He died the following year, 2015, at age 93, about four months before his 94th birthday. He made his home in greater Los Angeles and died there.

      Apparently Louis and Quique were childhood sweethearts. But they had a tragedy in their marriage. Their only son, 3 y.o. at the time, died at age 29 of a narcotics overdose, Hopefully other than that they had a fulfilling marriage and a good life together.

      French. Bobby-soxers. Tall, dark and handsome. Has been on stage. Born in France, living in the States. Many motion pictures. Alain Delon wasn’t around at the time. Who else was there? Especially since the play he was in made a splash. James Dean was also in it.

      @@zzzut The REAL "drag" is that this game show producer millionaire with these media mogul panelists made almost every guest go home with about $20 in their pocket because four nationally renowned very very rich well-informed media experts (also getting hints) had almost inevitably skunked them. Those unpaid low middle class guests made everyone on that show a ton of money.

Granted, $500.00 is nowhere near what the panelists got paid or what the Producer earned, but back then it was closer to $6,000.00 today.
