The thunderous applause when she walks in, and when asked if her voice was so well known that it would be immediately recognizable, and if she sings and dances - well, it was 100% deserved. She was the greatest entertainer of the 20th Century, and even a perfunctory glance at her vinyl and celluloid legacy will confirm that bold statement. She was revered by people, and rightly so. Judy Forever...
Judy Garland will always be THE WORLD'S GREATEST ENTERTAINER. Her talent was GOD given. Just listen to her Carnegie Hall CD. The mere mention of her name still screams TALENT.Judy had the ability to touch the soul of every person who listens to her voice. Judy's unique gift was that she lived each song she sang. Millions of people on youtube alone, type in her name to hear this LEGEND's voice. Show Biz today, lacks real talent and new fans emerge every day when they hear Judy for the first time.
The greatest entertainer of all time. I love watching this. Judy Garland was sensational and so humble with it. O so what a great gift she had. I salute you Miss Garland.
I just love at the end when discussing her upcoming role in Valley of the Dolls that "I'm the only one in the film that doesn't take pills". She had a sense of humor and a sense of irony.
Drunk or not, she was, in my opinion, the greatest female performer of the 20th century. No one will ever approach her talent. Today's singers may have the vocal gymnastics but they do not have the 'clear as a bell' vocals that one hears from her in "Wizard of Oz" and the innumerable other movies that most young people are not even aware of. Watch her in "Meet Me in St. Louis" sometime. She was brilliant. May she rest in peace.
I love how a lot of whistling was coming from the audience as Judy was signing her name. That just shows that her fans still appreciated her and loved her no matter what struggles she was going through during that time period.
Incredible she mentions being in town for her daughter's wedding and adoring her new son-in-law. That was Liza's first marriage to Peter Allen. It's crazy to know how people lives have played out decades later when you watch these old clips.
*For those who don't know, Senator Dirksen was quite famous at the time and had a well known nickname: "The Wizard of Ooze". It was Tony Randall's witty way of saying he knew it was Judy.*
@@VesnaVK "The wizard of ooze" was a very inside political joke and hardly known to the general public. Tony was referring to Judy's low-pitched nicotine-infused voice. She had just spoken before Tony made that remark. Later she explained that she had the flu and so sounded like "Senator Somebody." Judy, who really had no interests outside of show business, had never heard of Dirksen.
@@VesnaVK Nope. She laughed because the audience laughed heartily at Tony pretending to mistake her for a man. Judy at least did know that Senators were men. (Of 100 senators, only 1 was female then.) Instead of getting Dirksen's name wrong- it's the first time she ever heard it- she called the Senate Minority Leader, a towering power broker who had been around forever, "Senator Somebody." Judy's furthest foray into politics was trying to get JFK in the sack. After all, she may have reasoned, Marlene Dietrich did.
I LOVE HER!!!!!! JUDY you're awesome!!!!! You are SO funny in this video!!!!!! RIP Judy Garland loved by many and missed by lots and lots, You will always be on our TVs and in our hearts
One of the greatest talents to ever exist, yet treated like dirt by her promoters, and actually living in poverty at times because she was constantly swindled.
madamerotten I wish I was alive at the time to help! She died shortly before my 10th birthday; I only knew her from seeing The Wizard Of Oz when it came on TV was a year, in January, I believe.
How cute she looked when Bennet Serf said " That voice can only belong to only one Lady in the world and that is Judy Garland" She derived so much pleasure entertaining and pleasing her audience and her Audience never left her side which is why she always was kind to her fans.. God Rest your soul Judy!
"I'm the only one in the book that doesn't take pills." ::sigh:: We've been watching reruns of The Judy Garland Show on GetTV. She was so gracious and easy going. Always happy to let costars have their moment in the spotlight. She made it look like they were having so much fun! When she made a mistake she just laughed it off and kept going. :)
I am one of the few who felt her singing was the least of her talents. She was above all a tremendous actress. Few give her the credit she deserved as an actress, but she was totally competent playing any part. I refer everyone to her performance in "Judgement at Nuremberg". It was strictly a dramatic role late in her life, and she nailed it.
@curb1510 Frances Gumm Talent was so amazing that she Had to be discovered. A pure/powerful voice was so unique & amazing & very few had the ability to touch people so deeply like Judy could.Her voice came from a diaphram that was so solid, & could keep her vibrato @ a low volume which is very difficult for a singer. Her mark on this world should be hailed as a blessing because so many of the ppl still are discovering her gaining more fans thankstechnology. Forget her personal problems & enjoy!
She was a MARVELOUS performer, totally used and abused by the studios. They literally drove her to addiction.. But I would challenge anyone to find a warmer, kinder heart in all of Hollywood.
Judy was a one of a kind who will never be matched again as an all around top female performer. She was the music and a total entertainer. It seems strange now that Judy was around the same age as Whitney when she died from an "accidental" overdose. RIP Judy, Whitney, and Amy Winehouse. Gone way too soon.....
Judy Garland only had two years left on this earth when she did this episode. Hard to imagine she would have turned 90 years old on June 10th 2012. One of the greatest entertainers this world has ever known. Happy Birthday Judy wherever you are!!
Judy's voice was extremely recognizable & even when i close my eyes and listen to her first response when the clicker didnt work. Judy was a good sport & very funny. Her face glowed hearing the audience go wild each time they applauded. On many occasions when she wasnt in great voice, she respected her audiences & she came alive as a show went on. Her 1st Hollywood Palace TV ahowin 1965 is proof that her voice got stronger. Watch her during the "palace medley" @ the end of the show, on RUclips.
She had such a great sense of humor, saying that she was the only one in the cast of "Valley" that didn't take pills. What a shame she didn't do the movie at the end.
God, it kills me that they cancelled the Judy Garland Show. You can tell how proud she was of it. When Tony Randall asks if she's equally known as a television performer, she hesitantly rings the bell because her show was only on for one season, but when the audience applauds, it looks like she wants to say thank you to the audience then she rests her head on John Dalys' shoulder to give him a hug. She was so great.
Garland was just such a one-of-a-kind person. See her early MGM films for simply incredible dancing! Her dance moves were without flaw in The Pirate and several other films. Considering the popular music of her day, her voice was kind of edgy in an interesting way. There were times that her voice, too, was without flaw. She got in trouble early on as a teenager while making The Wizard of Oz, cause of the ridiculous demands of long hours of film work-too much for a kid. Pills, & later, drink.
The ovation given Ms. Garland was truly outstanding. However, in my mind it pales slightly to the reception given to Jimmy Durante on the January 31, 1965 episode, both when he entered the stage and when he left. It was a total love fest. Also, the audience greeting for Liberace, on the June 3, 1956 show is almost as grand. Both spots are posted here on YT.
According to a memoir by one of the show's producers, Judy was indeed not only drunk, but was rude, belligerent, and so late that they were just about to put on a substitute. She pulled herself together at the last second and got the biggest ovation in the show's history.
@ayama06 THANK YOU for that comment. My thoughts exactly. Every comment talking about how high she is or how drunk or whatever will be removed, I am sick of this. Appreciate the talent, people.
I can remember seeing her in the late '60's on TV, maybe the Tonight Show, but my mom, who remembered her whole career, said.."She's sick." She wasn't singing well. She had her hair in the real short version, boy-like...and she looked more older than her years. I felt sorry for her...but, as with the rest of you, I rejoice in her talent and what she left to us to enjoy.
@NFitalianGuy You're right. One can't be stoned and be an effective entertainer--especially a singer where one has to be in unison with the orchestra/piano, what have you. "Uppers" just give extra energy and can't really be considered "high".
I was re-watching the final episode of WML when John Daly was the Special Guest. He explains how he never appeared before as he was the shows "last minute guest" 'just in case'. He nearly was, as they were down to one minute with one guest before they were going to appear on-air. It's widely said to be this episode with Judy Garland Daly was talking about.
Yes Judy had her share of down moments but &as a fan, I also understand she was a real person with flaws & troubles. Sadly, Being so famous, she made headlines for her Troubles as well as her Triumphs, but she had much more than the "sad/bad" times. I wish people could understand that. Why most people are fixated on re enforcing all the neg press she got @ the end of her life is beyond me?Give Judy the respect she deserves because had always gave that to her audiences & told us so many times.
@curb1510 yes, sometimes I wish that too. But I think Judy couldn't have been NOT discovered. She was on the stage from age 2 on, and her talent was bound to be recognized sooner or later.
She got the most applause of anyone who's been on the show.
And she deserved it.
ApocalypsePlough That’s what I said, and she definitely deserved it!
Hollywood chewed her up and spat her out she deserved better
Dont know about that. Anita Eckberg and Jayne Mansfield were close in the most applause rivaling Judy.
Actually, it was Liberace who got the most applause, but Judy's applause was very high.
Yes
Forget the bell, the audience answered for her.
Still love you, Judy.
The thunderous applause when she walks in, and when asked if her voice was so well known that it would be immediately recognizable, and if she sings and dances - well, it was 100% deserved.

How brilliant is it that the audience ends up clapping for her yes' - they seem in complete and utter awe. That, right there, is a legend.
lol!
Bennett was so accurate when he said "THAT VOICE CAN BELONG TO ONLY ONE LADY IN THE WORLD" Judy was and still is a legend.
I just love at the end when discussing her upcoming role in Valley of the Dolls that "I'm the only one in the film that doesn't take pills". She had a sense of humor and a sense of irony.
The Greatest entertainer of all time.May God rest her soul!!!
Bennett Serf said it right, "That voice can belong to only one woman in the world, JUDY GARLAND" Imagine having that voice that is so recognizable? ;)
Judy would alwaysget standing ovations and crowds cheering easily!
Wow! Judy Garland!
The most incredible performer in our generation!Even after her death!
An icon and a true legend!
Love Love Judy❤🥰

polski1910 She was NOT drunk!
@@elspethcoogan1499 Read Fate's book, if you don't believe she was drunk.
Bill Gish Who is Fate?
@@elspethcoogan1499 Gil Fates was the creator and producer of What's My Line.
@@elspethcoogan1499 Well, she was definitely on something! She was higher than a kite.
I love how a lot of whistling was coming from the audience as Judy was signing her name. That just shows that her fans still appreciated her and loved her no matter what struggles she was going through during that time period.
One of the 5 GREATEST performers to every grace the planet.GOD bless her!!!
One of the most beloved performers of the last 100 years.
Incredible she mentions being in town for her daughter's wedding and adoring her new son-in-law. That was Liza's first marriage to Peter Allen. It's crazy to know how people lives have played out decades later when you watch these old clips.
Fascinating that Judy mentioned she was going to be in VALLEY OF THE DOLLS. Sad that never happened.
Biggest Reception I have ever heard from the audience at WML ...but again , there is only ONE, Judy Garland !! xo
Only a legend of that magnitude would get a thunderous & loving ovation like that!!!!
Her voice is so recognizable, he had to use a clicker. Unbelievable..... :)
*For those who don't know, Senator Dirksen was quite famous at the time and had a well known nickname: "The Wizard of Ooze". It was Tony Randall's witty way of saying he knew it was Judy.*

Such a great talent with no gimmicks of today. Sang song after song live with no breaks. The greatest.
Simply put, Judy wasn't a Star, she was THE STAR!!!
I have watch many many What's My Line video's and NO ONE has EVER had that reaction from the audience when they came out !! Love you Judy !! xoxo
I've never heard such adulation and applause for any Star on this show like Judy received here ...Beloved above all others !! xoxo
Judy Garland Forever an icon RIP
The greatest voice in entertainment!
Judy is immortal, a true miracle... Each time I hear her so unique voice, it gives me a thrill.
I LOVE HER!!!!!! JUDY you're awesome!!!!! You are SO funny in this video!!!!!! RIP Judy Garland loved by many and missed by lots and lots, You will always be on our TVs and in our hearts
Love Tony's erudite, distinctive voice. A treasure.
Wow!! Ms Garland....so good to see these Mega stars on here and listening to them chat at the end...
There were voices in those days. Now there are just record producers.
Sad Sad Sd,,such a talent,,,yet so lost and wounded by the Hollywood treadmill.
One of the greatest talents to ever exist, yet treated like dirt by her promoters, and actually living in poverty at times because she was constantly swindled.
madamerotten I wish I was alive at the time to help! She died shortly before my 10th birthday; I only knew her from seeing The Wizard Of Oz when it came on TV was a year, in January, I believe.
A real legend.
You're right.
She wasn't 'acting drunk', she was just drunk.
Or overly medicated. But still the greatest multitalented entertainer of all time.
Of all the great mystery guests on this show there was never an audience reaction like this.
For those alive in this period, was Judy considered a legend the way she is now at this time?
Eternal Queen
How cute she looked when Bennet Serf said " That voice can only belong to only one Lady in the world and that is Judy Garland" She derived so much pleasure entertaining and pleasing her audience and her Audience never left her side which is why she always was kind to her fans..

I truly adore Judy. And whether she had the flu or not, her voice sounds amazing!
The greatest audience reaction of any guest star!
This was my absolute favorite episode of WML. "Is your voice so unique that one would recognize it instantly?"
Heavily influenced or not, her humour is still intact. God i love this woman:)
Moments like these I realize JG. left us far too early. (47)
even though she died 17 years before i was born, i can't help missing her.
The marvellously fabulous Judy Garland. Our beloved star! XD
"I'm the only one in the book (Valley of the Dolls) who doesn't take pills." Oh my, the irony.
I loved this show when it was on! They should bring this back.
don't know why but i never get sick of watching it!
When Judy sings The Man that got Away (A Star is Born) it blows my mind - absolutely amazing - the best!
She was so Kinesthetic. She greeted people with an embrace.
I loved that she Judy made several appearances on television and other mediums. Not just out of sight out of mind.
I am one of the few who felt her singing was the least of her talents. She was above all a tremendous actress.

I tested up when I heard the rounds of applause. She was loved by the world ❤️

Judy Garland is wonderful at anything and everything she did. The Lady was TALENT.I just loved Judy.
I was eight years old when when my family and I heard on our radio that the great Judy Garland had died. We were heartbroken.
Judy had that quality that you could be her friend and just shoot the breeze with her...a treasure! >3
The audience goes wild! And why shouldn’t they?! It’s Judy Garland, The world’s greatest entertainer!
I love how she was lefthanded like I am. I just love everything about her, she was amazing and I admire her so.
Very talented star. The ride up was good for her but the ride down,yes,very tragic. We all love her. She entertained the world.
Two years later she was lost to her children and the millions of people she touched :(
Amazing! Probably the most important entertainer
ever to appear on the show, even if she was
well over the rainbow.
Love you Judy!
Unparalleled Beauty abd TALENT
She had such a great sense of humor, saying that she was the only one in the cast of "Valley" that didn't take pills. What a shame she didn't do the movie at the end.
"Do you sing and dance?" Almost made want to answer: Like no one else!
Robusta Capp Amen

yrs, I'm surprised Arlene didn't get it right away. When Judy spoke I thought they all wld get it immediately.
bon1042 So did I!
I first saw this video when it first was on You Tube ! She made me laugh with her answers ! Judy had so much humor !
My favourite entertainer by a country mile.
Adrian Connew Mine also!
I love Judy.... she is very funny... and the best singer lady on the world :-)
A Legend on an EPIC scale ... hence the applause ...xoxo
Judy Garland was a talented performer. I think she’s intoxicated on this show.
Judy as a young woman sang "You made me love you" to Clark Gable. I think that I could speak for many that Judy made us love her.
I can remember seeing her in the late '60's on TV, maybe the Tonight Show, but my mom, who remembered her whole career, said.."She's sick." She wasn't singing well.

My favorite lady. Singer, acress, just love this woman.
Judy Garland was simply unbelievable, but what is so astounding is that Judy's daughter LIZA, turned out to be an even bigger star!
'Ill sweep up the floor 2' lol good old Judy cant resist making a crack!
Judy was very kind and sweet!
