I realize that it's a little different 2020 hindsight being at home watching, but I was thinking for "Honk" he might say, "Car" and then "Horn" and if he needed to "Noise." Sometimes though, Mr. Perkins comes up with excellent clues. And my gosh what a legend as an actor!
@@joeambrose3260 you're probably right I might've been a bit disrespectful there; I'll edit my comment. I would say that your comment, though, may have been more than a touch more disrespectful.
Dina Merrill, worth 300 million dollars and she goes on Password and makes appearances promoting her films. Amazing and she is THE classic Old Money blond beauty.
@Liquid Eternity My mom and her Jewish friends all wore 'helmet hairdos lacqered with spray. The rich WASP mother of my best friend used to get her hair cut at the same barbershop as her sons! She was drop dead gorgeous too!
Courtship of Eddie's Father--watching it right now on the TCM app! Dina was a divine and lovely lady. I saw her home in VA years ago. What an exquisite collection of the Fabrage Eggs.
I noticed Anthony Perkins was the only gentleman who showed charisma towards women he would stand up when a woman answered and pull her chair out very very nice very distinguished I meant when a woman entered the room not answered the room
there should be a compilation of every stare of his, except when its intentionally scripted into a film, like Psycho. a compilation of just him staring at people.
Dina was that which is now practically extinct.... a LADY. Poised, elegant, polite, beautiful and, though she needn't have worked a day in her life, she endeavored tirelessly as not only an actress - always trying to expand her abilities in a variety of roles - but also as a charitable giver.
"Alone Together" was a very well known ballad written in 1932 for the Broadway show, Flying Colors. The greatest performance of it can be found on Judy Garland's 1961 landmark album, Judy at Carnegie Hall.
For "Straw" I kept waiting for her to say "Sipping." The 2 words you could use are "Sipping" and then… "Implement" (and then if you had to... add the word "Drink").
Was the announcer of the words the same person who was the regular announcer. I ask because Alan thanks "Jack" after the word "magnify" is announced and I was thinking maybe Jack Clark.
In that lightning round, the easy clue for "Monkey" would be "Ape" then if needed "Chimpanzee". Done. For "Orchard" I think using the words "Apple" (probably 1st) and then "Trees." If needed then "Many." A clue that many people miss in these lightning rounds (to include among others) for "String" is "Kite." For "Teeth" I was immediately thinking "Choppers,"
@@alanhumphrey4198 thanks; although it's easy to play "armchair quarterback" - with all the cameras in the audience etc. it might be a different story.
@@wynnssecret8882 - grew up in Ohio and never heard of it. The river that runs thru Columbus Ohio is the Scioto River, which flows into the larger Ohio River. There is no "Columbus" river in Columbus Ohio. Her response of "river" to a clue of "Columbus" was idiotic.
@@waldolydecker8118 its not idiotic if youre not thinking the answer through. some association could have made its way into the answer and you say the wrong thing or don't think properly. thats very possible on TV as well.
Wait but he was gay so that doesnt entirely make sense - although i know im just replying to this comment from a year ago, this has made me think, it would be interesting to actually psychologically analyse anthony perkins as a person/his behaviour. not as norman bates, because of course that is quite different, but this just made me think.
If *I* Ever Found myself across from her, when she was still with us; in this setting and circumstance or in another... ...I'd be a wagging, smiling, twitterpated MUSH .. 😌😐😶😬😶😐😐😐
The only person I remember who smoked on this show was Garry Moore. Was smoking frowned upon on Password? And was Garry given a special dispensation because he was an inveterate smoker?

I can’t believe I found this. This is my mother playing with Anthony Perkins. 1960 something.
That's awesome!!
Which one was she?? Is your mom still alive to see this?
1963
My mom was the second contestant. She never saw it.
It's amazing to see these old episodes. And it's great that family members can see their loved ones all these years later. I love watching them!
Tony had such a genuine smile!!
Dina Merrill and Anthony Perkins-- Two SUPER-sweet people. My most enjoyable people to watch play Password.
Anthony Perkins is SOOOO CUTE! HANDSOME! Kim :)
Somebody needs a cold shower
Cute, but you wouldn't have liked him...he had somewhat of a mother complex
Love watching these old Passwords, happy and sad at the same time.
Happy memories and sad current times we live.
Perkains and particularly Dina Merrill are SO nice! And so bright! What a pleasure!
05.34 - I may be dumb, but I'm romantic. LOL Perkins was hilarious. He should have done more comedies. Not that his dramas are not brilliant.
Perkins
Perkins, smerkins
Perkins get it right.
@@georgimihailov4906that Norman bates was a real cutup (nyuk nyuk)😂
"i'm dumb but i'm romantic" is the best and funniest thing that has ever been uttered
That could be a movie line lol
As sweet as Tony Perkins is, does anyone else see Norman Bates in his expressions?
Lolll
Anthony Perkins and Dina Merrill were the third cousins of actress Tuesday Weld, with whom both of them co-starred.
I wish all the old commercials were included

That's very disrespectful. I knew Betty White and you're no Betty White
@@joeambrose3260 you're probably right I might've been a bit disrespectful there; I'll edit my comment. I would say that your comment, though, may have been more than a touch more disrespectful.
@@voicetube That's because Mr. Ambrose spends all of his time being a Troll, and insulting everyone he comes in contact with. In short, he is an ASS!
He gave horrible clues for "monkey." Chimp, chimpanzee, ape+small=monkey, to name a few.
The first blonde lady practically crawled into Tony’s lap before giving him a clue.
And who could blame her?
@9:37 that Tony Perkins stare....
WOW!... That second contestant, Lynn Bergstrom, was just stunning! 👀
Dina Merrill, worth 300 million dollars and she goes on Password and makes appearances promoting her films. Amazing and she is THE classic Old Money blond beauty.
Sounds like unadulterated greed to me
@@joeambrose3260 Boy are YOU way off. the money she got from game shows wouldn't have kept her in hair spray.
@Liquid Eternity My mom and her Jewish friends all wore 'helmet hairdos lacqered with spray. The rich WASP mother of my best friend used to get her hair cut at the same barbershop as her sons! She was drop dead gorgeous too!
Those post toasties made her family 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
She died not too long ago and she was 94 or so...

He was friggin adorable. So sweet.
Charisma? Honey, check the dictionary. And he's not the only one showing such chivalry.
Watch Paul Anka on Password, he conducted himself in the same manner. Back then, that's how gentlemen treated ladies.
@@FigaroHey charisma is the word. thats how its spelled... check your eyesight.
All the men stand up for the women. I have watched tons of these
Love it!!!
What a stare 21:11
😍
I wonder what that meant when he did that!

Dina Merrill lived the Protestant Work Ethic!
She don't need a publicist, pal. She's dead
Luckily, there actually are a lot of ladies around still.
Omg he predicted the future when he said alone together sounded like a song title. FOB
"Alone Together" was a very well known ballad written in 1932 for the Broadway show, Flying Colors. The greatest performance of it can be found on Judy Garland's 1961 landmark album, Judy at Carnegie Hall.
@@chrisn7259 A matter of opinion pal. I prefer Oliver Hardys' version
Alone Together is also the name of an album by Dave Mason.
It was written in the early 30s, by Arthur Schwartz/Howard Dietz, one of the close to great songwriting partnerships.
Anthony Perkins reminds me a bit of a 1960’s era Michael Cera with how socially awkward and loveable he is…
I can think of 2 words that could've worked for "Straw." "Drinking" and "Tube."
Anthony was so intense, especially later on in the game, it made me scared because of the Psycho image I have of him lol
I used to watch The Courtship of Eddie's Father on T.V.
For "Sell" they could have done the Passwordian opposite thingy using the clue "Buuyyyy?…"
Dina can't quite keep up with Tony's intelligence and verbal skill. But she's lovely, just the same.
Alan was likable.
*Allen
For "Straw" I kept waiting for her to say "Sipping." The 2 words you could use are "Sipping" and then… "Implement" (and then if you had to... add the word "Drink").
This is 1 Very Cool Video. 👍
Never heard or used Giddy in any other form than "my giddy aunt". Is there another way to use it?
Idents:
Formation (5 seconds)
Formation (7 seconds; partial)
Dina Merrill got better looking with the years! Father was E.F. Hutton CEO! Married to Cliff Robertson.
With snuggle someone should have said 'up' after 'cuddle' because of the lyrics to Melancholy Baby. The soldier thought of it too late.
Was the announcer of the words the same person who was the regular announcer.
I ask because Alan thanks "Jack" after the word "magnify" is announced and I was thinking maybe Jack Clark.

For orchard - grove. For teeth - molars
You would have been a great Password contestant.
I was surprised he didn’t say chimpanzee for monkey ! It was like he froze !
@@joeambrose3260 Good ones!
@@alanhumphrey4198 thanks; although it's easy to play "armchair quarterback" - with all the cameras in the audience etc. it might be a different story.

"Dizzy Blonde" could be taken as a joke back in 1963.
Nowadays....watch it buster! (Are we allowed to say "buster")
Joe......No "sporty" your not allowed to say "buster" . Sorry, I couldn't help myself.😉
We are not allowed to say anything anymore
When they couldn’t get giddy, maybe horseback would help ?! As in giddy up ! 🐎

Dina Merrill was decent looking.
"rabid" Yankee's fan!!
Tony perkins IS his character in “psycho”. Even in this show he constantly touched the older ladies players ha ha

So...did Dina have her purse in her lap?
Maybe she kept her bank books with her. She did have a worth of five Billion dollars. 🍀
