George Segal was so handsome!!
Rest in peace, George Segal.
Sue Cox had been a model and artist (as well as an art history major at U of Minnesota) when she married U of Minnesota quarterback Bobby Cox (not to be confused with the Hall of Fame baseball manager of the same name). He was good enough to make the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1957, but his pro career was brief. He passed away in 2003. He was divorced from Sue Cox decades earlier. Sue remarried in 1977 to Carl Platou.
Some men condescendingly attributed Sue's football picks to female intuition. In fact she painstakingly researched the teams by combing through news articles and injury reports. According to her daughter, Las Vegas bookmaker and sportscaster Jimmy the Greek would call Sue often for tips on upcoming games.
I can't definitively come up with the origin of her nickname, "Bronco". I suspect it might have been an acknowledgement of her relentless success and in honor of legendary Hall of Fame football player for the U of Minnesota Golden Gophers, Bronko Nagurski, who was one of the strongest, most versatile and most successful players ever. And lest the difference in spelling gives you pause, the nickname of his high school in International Falls is "Broncos".
Sue Cox was also a devoted supporter and board member of the world-renowned Minnesota Orchestra (nee Minnesota Symphony Orchestra). Over the years, its principal conductors and musical directors have included Eugene Ormandy, Dimitri Mitropolous, Antal Dorati, and Sir Neville Marriner.
Very interesting and she was so beautiful !!!
George Segal. Another one from the Modern Hollywood crowd. He had been nominated for an award for his performances in films such as "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and "A Touch of Class".
It amazes me that the show never had more than one chair for guests (for instance wife/husband duos, partner performers, father/son pairs, etc.)
It amazes me that so many people don't understand the reasons for only one chair.
John Daly most have been a big fan of Hogan's Heroes he spent most of the show calling Bob Crane by his character's name.
It was a very popular show, with Emmy nominations and wins as well.
Bob Crane's death in 1978 was nothing short of shocking, and it remains one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in Hollywood.
Have you seen the 2002 movie AUTO FOCUS, starring Greg Kinnear and Willem Dafoe? Interesting film about Bob Crane and his untimely demise. Worth watching once, anyway.....
As I understand it his roommate killed him. They were both swingers and the roommate used Crane to get women. Crane got tired of being used and was going to part ways. The roommate got mad and killed him. Crane had a sordid private life but that was his business and he never harmed anyone. His daughter loved him, she said he was a great father. I felt sorry for her because he was murdered.
@@jmccracken1963 A really good film. Kinnear was impressive, as Crane.
@@jmccracken1963 excellent movie!!!!!
And George Segal is still going strong today, 52-some years later, playing the cool granddad on the ABC sitcom "The Goldbergs"!!!
Marcus Oh-really-yes ......Really? We don't get that show over here in the UK. Not that I watch TV anymore anyway, I hasten to add. I just remember George Segal in 1970s comedy movies.
@@davidsanderson5918 ... I enjoy "The Goldbergs," mostly for the actress who plays the mom and the actor who plays the oldest son, Barry (who both are so over the top sometimes and really quite self-centered and often annoying. To me, the mom is not quite as comically annoying as Patricia Routledge as Hyacinth Bucket in "Keeping Up Appearances" ... but almost. :-) But then by the end of the episode, they realize their bad actions and apologize and swear to turn over a new leaf ... only to act the same self-indulgent way in the next episode. LOL). George Segal has a supporting role as the cool maternal granddad, whom the grandkids go to for advice, especially the younger brother, Adam. It's based on a real-life boy/man named Adam Goldberg, the writer-producer ... who bases his storylines on real-life events and people that he encountered in middle school and high school in the 1980s. And at the end of each episode, there's always a snippet of Adam's real-life 1980s-filmed camcorder footage that relates to that episode's plot. ... George was also really fun in the 1990s-2000s sitcom "Just Shoot Me," about a New York City fashion magazine.
He just recently passed away
Thank you so much for the upload !I love this show!
Kitty Carlisle and Tom Poston passed within two weeks of each other in 2007.
Pops! George Segal is very much alive and "80 years of pure awesomeness"
Not alive anymor3
RIP George Segal
RIP George.
RIP George Segal. You had that Touch Of Class.
I agree! One of my favorite films.
Now watching this is even sadder.
RIP Orson Bean.
Arlene looks EXHAUSTED here. Poor love. I think Dinner At Eight obviously leads to her getting home late!
Arlene is as good on her last minute guesses (light bulb) as she is on the regular game, sometimes!
Happy 85th birthday to George Segal!
Notice how the whole panel didn’t move and just admired Sue Cox. Timeless beauty.
R.I.P George Segal
As of this writing-6-1-2017, Orson Bean is still with us at age 88.
Died recently; now with God!
Blessings to the GREAT Orson Bean !!!!!
@@benlujan288 Bean was hit by a car. Two people on the show killed by other people.
The last surviving member of the WML panel and TTTT panels on this show, Orson Bean, died in a pedestrian traffic accident on February 7, 2020. He was a third cousin twice removed of Calvin Coolidge.
Some suggestions are a command, apparently. After Goodson's comment about Phyllis's pant suit the night of Sinatra-Farrow. she appears tonight on WML "dress"-ed.
George Segal was great in Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolff especially considering how Elizabeth Taylor chewed the scenery.
Leave it to Arlene to guess lightbulbs. 😂❤
An extremely young George Segal can be seen in a dramatization of the crash and mystery of the Lady Be Good bomber that was found in the Libyan desert 17 years after it went missing.
13:25 *”That’s 27,000 down and no more to go!”* That game lasted an eon...
Why was Bennett getting so bitchy about the light bulbs? Jeez, he could be annoying at times.
*George Segal's movie at the time Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf. One of my favorite movies and Segal was very good in it.*
George Segal was a gem.
OMG...i feel im about to become obsessed with TTTT.....just like i am with WML!!
Ms sue cox has that hairstyle like in the movie VALLEY OF THE DOLLS like patty duke and sharon tate god rest her soul and so forth i liked that movie as a young boy and i still do in 2018 so far
Was her middle name ‘likes’?
"To Tell the Truth" must be the most successful of G-T's creation given that it appeared in various incarnations from 1956 clear into the 2000s. All of its panelists here appeared on Sunday night WML as guest panelists. Kitty, Orson, and Peggy played the game well and were witty; Tom Poston was just hilarious on the panel, particularly in the late 1950s. Poston is the one who famously asked Polly Bergen of all people questions to the effect if she were Jackie Gleason. Poston had a very long career in television; my personal favorite was George the Handyman in the Bob "Newhart" series set at the inn in Vermont.
Jerry Van Dyke, reportedly, almost got the role of George the Handyman in the "Bob Newhart" series.
Jerry would have been good. Poston was great. And if indeed Poston's finale appearance was in "Suite Life" -- well, he could have done worse.
One of the sweetest things was when he and Suzanne Pleshette married late in life, and then great sadness, when both died not too long after they married.
RIP George Segal 1934-2021
That's "Bronco" - she was predicting football scores on WCCO TV into the 1980's
Used to have a drinking game when she would say "Vikings by 3." Happened frequently in the 80's. Got a decent spread for the '66 NFL title game, too. Packers won by 7.
I think I was nine when I realized I had a crush on Phyllis. :)
'God never forgave me for Phyllis Newman'. Lol.
Ewwww....
I enjoyed George Seagal's banjo playing.
Yes. In a "Tonight Show" appearance in which he played his banjo (mid to late 70s, I guess), Johnny Carson remarked to George about his "fooling around on the banjo."
And George responded (pretending to be mildly offended): "John, I do not regard my work on the banjo as 'fooling around.' "
Orson Bean died February 07, 2020 at 91 years old.
George Segal very impressive
The football handicapper was a knocdkout, Unbelievable how beautiful she was.
In the event, Green Bay won by 7. So not too bad.
The next year, Dallas and Green Bay met again in the playoffs (the famed "Ice Bowl") and the Packers won, 21-17.
Here is yet another one of the few panels that had cultured, talented people on it: Tom Poston, Orson Bean, Kitty Carlisle & Peggy Cass.
Well... at least the first three anyway.
@@Walterwhiterocks True. Peggy Cass was an odd and seemingly stereotypical character. But, she was not stupid or uncultured. She just never wore off her rough edges to present herself in a more polished manner. In some ways, she was culturally a more abrasive, diehard version of Dorothy Kilgallen, though I do not know about her deductive abilities or her grit. In other ways she was a different version of Fran Drescher, who probably could have done something with her vocal tones and range to make it easier to listen to her and not ignore what she has to offer, share, inform us about. Possibly too easy to dismiss talents who remain rough-hewn forever. It would be my sad inclination to agree with you. Though we may both be quite wrong about her.
Love Bob Crane ❤ 🤟🌹🕯
Me too gwal 💅
Mrs Cox the Football score predictor looks like a dead ringer for the lovely actress who played a part in a Star Trek episode of this same era called “The Games Of Trixilon”. Same hairdo too!
+Gary Zerr
You are referring to Angelique Pettyjohn who played the part of Shahna in that episode of "Star Trek" from its second season. She also played Charlie Watkins in "Get Smart", a male agent who was supposedly cleverly disguised as a woman (all they did was overdub a male voice at times when she talked).
By coincidence, Angelique had some scenes with Bob Crane in a 1969 episode of "Love American Style".
There is some resemblance, helped by the similarity in hair style. Mrs. Cox was less voluptuous and had a stronger chin. I also think that Mrs. Cox had prettier eyes that sparkled. It seemed to me that Ms. Pettyjohn suffered from a bit of strabismus: her eyes sometimes looked like they weren't focused or looked in different directions.
By Doggies she was very close, Green Bay beat Dallas 34-27 and then went on to win the Super Bowl over Kansas City 35-10. She guessed 4 pt GB win, it was a 7 pt win.
she only missed by a year in 67 Green Bay beat Dallas 21-17 in the icebowl.
Thank you!
Saved me looking it up 😎
If only the Packers had missed one of the field goals.
I wonder what her prediction was for the Super Bowl.
Poor Bob...RIP
RIP but he creeps me out
@Bigbadwhitecracker Nah this is the only time he creeped me out 9:56
"The Quiller Memorandum" was/is an excellent film which, along with Mr. Segal, starred Senta Berger, Max von Sydow, and Alec Guinness.
Walter Allen (the light bulb man) was quite handsome.
December 31st 1967 at Lambeau Field, Wisconsin: Cowboys 17 and Packers 21 - Packers won by 4 points. So she was right, but a year out. In 1966 the Packers beat the Cowboys, but by 7 points. She wasn't far off.
Steve27775 She wasn't far off by looks either, but I didn't like "Colonel Hogan's" "funny" hints in his questions to her. Not more "funny" than Sinatra's fixation on alcohol in a previous episode.
SuperWinterborn Bob Crane was a pretty terrible panelist overall. Definitely in the lower tier of guest panelists over the years.
Given the things he was allegedly into, not surprising. A creepy guy all around. Don't like him.
Thank you
@@WhatsMyLine WOW
George Segal is 81 as of this writing, and is still going strong. He can currently be seen on the ABC Sitcom "The Goldbergs" (nothing to do with the vintage one with Gertrude Berg) as Albert "Pops" Solomon.
A great and versatile actor. I absolutely love the 1977 (original) version of "Fun With Dick and Jane".
I was scared when you wrote "The Goldbergs". I was thinking, "is nothing sacred" I'm glad it has nothing to do with Gertrude Berg.
Sue Cox, the second contestant, died on December 25th, 2018.
Rest In Peace Man
George reminds me of Ray Liotta here.
No. George Segal's facial complexion was clear and smooth and not like a gravel pit.
Bob Crane. The evidence against the person who was indicted for the June 1978 murder of Bob Crane was not convincing. The jury declared the defendant not guilty, so the Crane murder is still officially unsolved. It probability had something to do with Crane's . . . . how we say? --videotaping hobby activities.
Say no more! I can imagine what it was even though I have never heard of it... :)
Greg Kinnear portrayed Bob Crane in the 2002 film "Auto Focus", based on Crane's path to his ultimate demise.
Watch Crane on "Password" sometime when he is partnered with a pretty young girl. I can see his eye twirling as he think of how to ask her out. He was a fleshman.
But millions of Password viewers didn't know that in the 1960s. You are mixing up a fun game show with information that a murderer encouraged people to discover in 1978. People have done a very similar blurring of boundaries when they have commented on the January 8, 1961 episode of What's My Line? They say Joan Crawford's body language proves she physically abused her two adopted daughters who are seen with her on - camera during her mystery guest segment. Hogwash.
I remember that Crawford-daughter appearance: I do not remember much in the way of domestic hints. I have not seen Crane on Password.
A year had passed after the primetime panel replaced the daytime one. Orson Bean (age 86) is the only one still alive.
Also, a shame so few episodes of the daytime TTTT with Phyllis Newman on the panel exist!
RIP Orson Bean
You have a very successful TV series when a game show host keeps referring to you by your character's name on that series (Hogan's Heroes). Great show. Practically seen all episodes.
"Hogan's" had a run of six seasons. That's huge in prime time TV.
I like the part when Bob Crane said 9:56
I bet after the show he tried to get her to go to one of his pervert sex parties 😮😮😮
RIP George Segal. 😥
I lusted after Phyllis Newman when I was a kid
THANK YOU MR RUSSO
Greenbay won, also it wasn't 4 points but 7. So she called the correct winner and she was very close on the spread. Amazing to be sure.
Great to see the TTTT cast. I wonder why Bud Collyer didn't come. Was he ever on WML?
Joe Postove He made a Mystery Guest appearance as one of the Goodson-Todman hosts on July 16, 1967, and as a solo MG on the Syndicated revival in 1969 (the latter was his final television appearance before his death).
Considering how skinny Bud Collyer was, it's a bit of a disconnect to think of him as the radio voice of Superman. Of course the audience couldn't see him, but what about public appearances to promote the show?
And of course I'm prejudiced as to the best Superman ever, since Christopher Reeve was my classmate at Cornell (although I never met him, we undoubtedly passed by each other at some point since he lived one dorm away from me during freshman year).
Among the WML Mystery Guests who have been his co-stars in films include the likes of Ben Gazzara ("The Young Doctors"), Yul Brynner ("Invitation to a Gunfighter"), Richard Dawson ("King Rat"), Elizabeth Ashley ("Ship of Fools"), Elizabeth Taylor ("Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"), Jason Robards ("The St. Valentine's Day Massacre"), Phyllis Newman ("Bye Bye Braverman"; yes, he worked with Phyllis!), Lee Remick ("No Way to Treat a Lady"), Virna Lisi ("His Way of Doing"), Eva Marie Saint ("Loving"), Barbra Streisand ("The Owl and the Pussycat" and "The Mirror Has Two Faces"; the latter also starred Lauren Bacall), Paula Prentiss ("Born to Win"), Shelley Winters (Blume in Love"),Jane Fonda ("Fun With Dick & Jane"), Henry Fonda ("Rollercoaster"), Jacqueline Bissett ("Who Is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe?"), Natalie Wood ("The Last Married Couple in America"), and Candice Bergen ("Stick").
Some of them were only Mystery Guests on the Syndicated revival.
He was also with Ben Gazzara in the film, Bridge at Remagen.
Joking with the German accent was not funny back in the day when they were so many Holocaust survivors still alive, and presumably, watching this program.
On the other hand, it’s always brought me joy to watch episodes of Hogan’s Heroes where they made fools out of the Nazis. Robert Clary, the Frenchman, was actually a survivor.
There’s definitely a danger with lightbulbs. What if you touch it and it’s too hot..
Arlene, your boiler makers are showing.
Of the TTTT cast, I think Orson Bean now is the only member still alive.
RIP Phyllis Newman.
She was right. Green Bay won, but not against Dallas. Super Bowl I (01/15/1967) results were GBP 35, Kansas City Chiefs 10.
Before which, on Sunday, 1 January 1967, Green Bay beat Dallas for the NFL Championship. Final Score: Green Bay 34, Dallas 27. (The game was played at Dallas that year.) The following year's NFL Championship game was the famous "Ice Bowl" game played at Green Bay, which the Packers did win by 4 (21-17).
@kenp3L I thought he was asking about the NFL Championship game, for which @jmccracken1963 provided details above. Amazing and impressive how close she was with her prediction. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1966_NFL_Championship_Game
TTTT was added to the CBS schedule 12/12/66 after the demise of "The Jean Arthur Show". Did CBS intend to bring TTTT back to primetime as a mid-season replacement? 1966 was just when the networks really started the mid-season thing (Tammy Grimes was cancelled on ABC after fours shows!) and most shows, even losers still went for a season.
To Tell the Truth was on prime time starting in the late 50's / early 60's. Dick Van Dyke was a panelist on the original pilot episode and Mike Wallace hosted just the pilot. Then Bud Collyer became the host on prime time and he also hosted daytime.
I turned 10 yrs old on this day
A friend of my wife's from childhood is named Becky Cox and she played semi-pro football.
We live in a different world.
When I heard John Daly mention that Sue Cox was married to a pro football player and was prognosticating in Minneapolis, I immediately thought of Minnesota Vikings kicker Fred Cox.
By the way: The Minnesota Vikings, coached by Norm Van Brocklin, finished 4-9-1, in a two-way tie for 6th place in the NFL Western Division with the Detroit Lions (whom the Vikings beat 28-16, at Detroit, on the afternoon of the day that this show aired). This was the last year of a 2-division NFL; the following year, the league split into 4 divisions (Capitol, Century, Central, and Coastal). And the Vikings would begin to string together winning seasons the following season (1968).
+jmccracken1963
Great minds think alike! I also immediately thought of Fred Cox, but then I wondered how she could predict games that her husband was playing in.
Fred Cox (still alive as of 7/1/2019) is known for two things outside of his playing career: becoming a chiropractor and inventing the Nerf football. He played 15 seasons, all for the Vikings and is the second leading scorer for a career in NFL history behind George Blanda, which means he is #1 for players who scored all their points as a kicker. He was one of the last to kick straight on rather than soccer style.
it was nice of john to keep calling bob crane colonel hogan. he really became the character like adam west owned batman. kind of funny that the character of robert hogan was taken from a real robert hogen who was an actor friend of the creator of the show and was in a handful of episodes including the premiere.
I hear that not much in the way of kinescopes survive of daytime 1962-65 "To Tell the Truth" when it featured a young and perky Phyllis Newman.
Green Bay did play Dallas. GB won by 7 and not by 4 as predicted by Sue.
GEORGE SEGAL (1934 - 2021)
2021
Phyllis knew in advance about George Segal. I'm convinced of that.
As of Aug 2, 2020 George Segal is still alive .
He passed just a couple of days ago.
bennett is SO obvious in his LUST.....
Rip
Good etiquette and manners i like that
What is the name of the movie George Segal was in , in the 70's , in the new " sensurround" presentation , in theaters . It was in an era of movies , when theaters had several huge , 10 foot speakers in the front of the theaters , to literally shake the seats , when the director wanted to " thrill " the moviegoers .?

More thoughts about "Mame" after seeing the great Peggy Cass. It is hard to imagine anyone else in the role of Agnes Gooch. I wonder if she didn't have a Hollywood career because of mis-steps along the way (I am aware that in the 1961-1962 season, Cass and Jack Weston costarred in an ABC sitcom, The Hathaways, along with the Marquis Chimps, a chimpanzee showbiz troupe which served as her "children" on the show). Or maybe she was a devoted New Yorker.
One of Peggy Cass's last screen roles was in the pilot episode of "Major Dad" playing the civilian receptionist/office assistant to the Major. But she didn't continue in the role once the show was picked up by CBS.
How is it possible that, after 17 years of doing this, Daly still has trouble with the names of the guests?
Shameless Goodson Toddman cross promotion
FYI try and find Where's Poppa one of the best comedies ever made....
No doubt that WML was the best Game Show ever! :) But which one was #2 and why?
To Tell The Truth?
I've Got a Secret?
The Name's the Same?
I've Got a Secret because of Betsy Palmer and To Tell the Truth because of Polly Bergen. I have a crush on both. I have never heard of The Name's the Same.
+Johan Bengtsson
Funny you should ask the question on this particular episode because my answer is "none of the above". I would pick "Family Feud" (also a Goodson-Todman production) when it was hosted by Richard Dawson, Bob Crane's co-star on "Hogan's Heroes". Dawson is the only person I would rate higher than John Daly as a host of a game show. He was personality plus and he had great rapport with both the contestants and the announcer, Gene Woods. And as far as kissing the female contestants, I never saw one object and I saw episodes where he didn't kiss a female contestant. So I think it was safe to presume that they were asked beforehand whether they would object. (Alas, I will never have the opportunity to be kissed by Richard Dawson.)
Number 3 would be "Password". The classic version of the game is the best of all of them, in part because it is much easier to play at home or a party. But on TV it can get repetitive and it suffers badly when there is a poor player, especially a celebrity who either isn't very good or who's humor destroys the pace of the game, or both. Some celebrities knew how to inject humor without breaking the flow, others did not. And while Allen Ludden was a very warm and likable personality, he also made a lot of errors pronouncing the names of contestants, keeping score, etc.
I never sawa "The Name's the Same". I grew up watching IGAS and TTTT because for much of the time they were on earlier in the evening during my childhood. I preferred IGAS back them because I liked Betsy Palmer and Henry Morgan. Watching them now, I prefer TTTT when Orson Bean and Peggy Cass are on the panel because I liked the way they sparred and I also like the game better. The object of the secret for IGAS seems too vague to me now. The biggest drawbacks for me with TTTT are that I was never a big fan of Bud Collyer and Kitty Carlisle was someone I simply didn't like. I have no idea what type of person she was IRL. That was just my reaction to her.
Beat the Clock
John must have a very short memory. Before the last contestant came on he said "Well you've done very very well panel, we haven't fooled you a bit." Nonsense. They didn't come close to getting Mrs.Cox's profession.
Creepy old Bob Crane was scoping out that blonde.
George Segal. Again the production staff thought it was tapping into youth appeal. Instead it showed a long career as a young man. In a few months, he was nominated for the best support actor Oscar in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" That practically started modern mod cinema and was as much joy as taking a whipping.
soulierinvestments. Is he any relation to Steven Seagal?
To Putin's sycophant? No, thank God.
@@chaset16 Not in a million lifetimes.
I wonder if they were running out of ideas for mystery guests around these years.
I wonder if it would have been easier for lefties to write from the right of the board rather than like everyone else, the left hand side?
The Hebrew Bible is written from right to left.... do you think that God and/or the author(s) was/were lefties?
Johan Bengtsson God had the world's biggest dicta-belt recording device. It records to small records for the girl to play the next day and from which she can type his letters.
Joe Postove How do you know all this?
Johan Bengtsson Gary told me.
Joe Postove Haha! :) Another unexpected answer! You are incredible. :)
Hollywood is really B.V.W. and A.V.W. before Virginia Woolf and after. This landmark movie launched Americans into film as a thoroughly adult art form.
Sue Cox was off by 3 points.
And she passed away in late 2018
What year did Phyllis Newman died?
Mike Vanriel Phyllis Newman is still very much alive.
She died in September 2019 age 86.
Fluffy :>(
Fifty years later, I still don't know how to react to "Hogan's Heroes." In fairness, I will admit I have never liked any TV comedy about prisons.
What fascinates me about "Hogan's Heroes" is that the part of Colonel Klink was played by Werner Klemperer, the son of the great conductor Otto Klemperer. Another acting son to a famous conductor was Karl-Heinz Böhm (son of Karl Böhm),
Gee, how many comedies are there about prisons?
Johan Bengtsson When "Hogan" premiered in 1965 it got a fair amount of criticism from the Jewish community and it's supporters for making light of a time when Jews and millions of others were being killed by the Nazis. My cousin, who is a survivor, and many Jews were appeased some when the program showed the Nazis as ridiculous bumblers and the humor was at their expense. Also several of the top cast were Jews who also went out of their way to explain that Hogan's Heroes was an example of American heroism and Nazi nincompoopsy (new word, already copyrighted, but you little fellers, go get a stick and I'll put some gravy on it for you).
Otto should have appeared on W
"Hogan's Heroes" was hilarious and when it aired originally, I thought it was very cool. I still do. I used to love it when Colonel Klink would threaten "I'll have you shot and sent to the Russian front!"
Is it just my imagination or did I kind of get the impression that George and Phyllis might have been rather attracted to each other?
Phyllis gives me a boh-ner!
Why is Orson Bean acting so rude/short tempered to Tom Poston in the beginning. Not a good look.
Wonder why Orson Bean acted so stupid? He acted like he was on Radio and could not be seen. Strange character.
Phyllis Newman on this show was Dorothy reincarnate, but not as good....
+Purple Capricorn Miss Phyllis was a great host on the panel. I loved her too Pretty, funny, smart all on her own.... No one on Earth will ever take the place of Miss Dorothy. She was What's My Line? Mr. Cerf, Miss Arlene and Mr. Daly are the resound this show was, is and will be (thanks to You Tube) going on for ever.
Edwin Rivera
I was just saying the way Phyllis played the game was similar to Dorothy and I didn't like Dorothys gameplay.
Why? And please tell me why.
Edwin Rivera
Dorothy was too serious and wasted a lot of time asking questions (usually the same question more than once) when she knows or has an idea of what the product or job was. It was annoying to me.
When something is annoying to me... I just stop looking at it and not complain
