I am no prude BUT being in my 30s and born seeing as how things were before and after smartphones I have to say that with all that society is today, from dress to language, movies and TV to social media, rude and crude being how things are this day in age, I do love the 50's in etiquette, good grace and genuine goodness.
I'm old enough to have been around for _What's My Line_ in that era, and frankly it's what was the example to which we all aspired -- and it's no accident that our politicians of that day reflected that. People back then had Faith and self-respect, and so they carried themselves with aplomb and some class and treated others the way they wanted to be treated. Today, no one gives two shits -- because no one wants to put forth the effort to act worthy of themselves; everyone else is expected to go along with it and if we don't like it, who cares. Class has been replaced with crass, a truckload of pride and not an ounce of self-respect. I pine for the days when I could truly look up to people like these and aspire to their sense of dignity. As a child it made a big impression on me and still does.
I loved seeing Dr. Hubert, and what a fascinating career! Thank you Dr. Hubert for your dedication! Loved watching this so much, a piece of history! Thank you so much for airing this episode! ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍
Sir Hubert Wilkins was an extraordinary individual, often considered the last of the great explorers. He seemed in perfect health during this appearance, but died just a few months later on November 8, 1958, at the age of 70.
It's so true as Bennett Cerf said that John Daly is an aristocrat of television. I'm sure that the show would have died without him. Many game show hosts seem oily, shallow or robotic but Mr Daly is suave, funny and clever.
On the contrary with all due respect I thought John Daly was always a pompous egomaniac that was afraid of Johnny Carson and didn’t like Johnny Carson for competitive reasons, Johnny Carson would’ve stole that show, but instead he went on to be the king of talkshows as we all know!!!!
@@MrDetroitnews Carson's career almost died when he hosted _Who Do You Trust?_ I don't think it lasted one season. Carson was a much better late-night host because he was a comedian. John Daly was a journalist, and considering most journalists back then went to great lengths to groom their personas to be worthy of the Fourth Estate, I thought Daly was especially approachable as a game show host. HOWEVER....one thing Daly insisted on was that the show demonstrate some class, and they succeeded because he wouldn't compromise on that.
@@MrDetroitnews There is NOTHING pompous or egomaniacal about John Charles Daly. Are you high? Bennett Cerf fit that description perfectly. (and then some! If you only knew)
I just Googled Bennett Cerf, and I'am pleased that no one ever dug up any dirt on this wonderful man, it seemed he was always well respected thru his life..
Don't get me wrong, I like Bennett very much on the show, I believe fully he was a good, gentle guy in real life (from what little evidence I can find second hand), and I would love to have had an opportunity to meet him if he were still alive. BUT. . . frankly, there is *some* dirt on him, sorry. ;) Take a look at his association with the Famous Writers' School. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famous_Writers_School
***** I wasn't trying to convince you Bennett wasn't a nice person. I explicitly said that I feel the same way. I just thought this was interesting information to share since you said that "no one ever dug up any dirt on this wonderful man", and this was a fairly big scandal. Shades of gray. People aren't all good or bad. That's all this is.
Listening to the 1968 Notable Now Yorkers interview of Bennett is all anyone needs to remind them that he's as human as anyone else, complete with foibles and insecurities.
Hubert Wilkins sounds like quite a personality. Wish I had known him. This said only by his performance in front of the Panel, later I have googled him, and it did certainly not change my mind. Wow!
In his book about the show Gil Fates acknowledged his admiration for Sir Hubert Wilkins and said that one of his favorite books was about Wilkins' 1931 trip under the North Pole in a submarine. When he was invited to appear on the show there was some question as to if he should be a Mr. X; he said, "No one will recognize me; everybody thinks I'm dead."
It’s great that Peter and Mary were married for 58 years. So unusual for people in show business. And you can tell that they are truly comfortable with each other.
An old joke ... Red: What are you having for lunch? Fred: A tongue sandwich. Red: Ewww. I would never eat something that comes out of the mouth of a cow. Fred: So what are you having? Red: Eggs.
I loved that part too. Also in one segment the guest is an attorney and someone asked her if she passed the bar. Arlene answered "not many of us did." I think that was her answer. So hilarious.
Do people still go to libraries? Back in the day, I used them a lot since a lot of reference material was there and that was all there was. Mr. Wilkins was great. Thanks for the video.
Mr. Farrar appears to have been 23 at this point; he died in 1992. And this episode has caused me to finally find out what egg candling is. Also, I am on Team No Cream In Scrambled Eggs. (Water, yes. Occasionally a bit of milk, yes. Cream, no.)
There are lots of good ways to scramble eggs, and a number of bad ones, mostly involving high heat. I like them best cooked very slowly, and also well mixed before cooking. So I add a teaspoon of water to two eggs before scrambling them, and also melt about a teaspoon of butter in the pan while the eggs are warming. This gives the most consistently fluffy and tasty eggs of any method I've tried.
When I was a kid I used to add a little water to the eggs before scrambling and I used to cook them fast. They were good, but not spectacular. But then as I got older I stopped that. I finally discovered one of the secrets to really creamy eggs is to cook them on the lowest flame possible, for the longest time before the flame goes out. There is a restaurant I go to and they have really delicious creamy eggs, the best I have ever eaten, so I asked them what they add to the eggs to make them so creamy and they said BUTTERMILK.

Had ro pause the video to comment. John just said that good television, like good books, is here to stay. At the moment, Celebrity Big Brother is on the screen....Make of that what you wil.
cbalducc Well younger people like me don't really know who they are, but I learn more abut the people from my this era because I grew up watching TVLand (When they actually showed the old show commercials included) and PBS would show older movies. I like the movies and shows of the Era and I Love Lucy got me started with all of that when I happened to see it on night at about age 10 or 11. Every since then I've watched older movies and Tv shows when available. Now with the internet Its easier to watch more from this era because a lot of tv and movies today suck.
Mr. James Roosevelt was incredibly bright, and had a great political and business career - that said, his success at marriage was not all that good. In May 1969, his third wife "Gladys," (whom he left his second wife for - in the mid-1950's) stabbed him eight times in Geneva, Switzerland. The third Mrs. James Roosevelt was extremely depressed/agitated over her knowledge that her husband would be soon leaving her for another woman. (They had a son together named "Hall"). This story made front page headlines, all over the world, at the time. Mr. Roosevelt was hospitalized in critical condition, but happily recovered Mr. Roosevelt was soon granted a divorce (September 1969) from Gladys Irene. Sadly, the former Mrs. James Roosevelt would eventually die in a house fire (along with her cat). At the time of her 1987 passing, Gladys was now living light- years away from the glittering parties of New York City, Washington, DC, and even Geneva. She was largely forgotten. Mr. Roosevelt would marry again in this same year (1969). His fourth marriage would bring another child - and apparently this final nuptial was successful, as it lasted until his 1991 passing. There are so many "historical figures" who showed up on WML during its long run - I do not mean to tarnish the memory of anyone - and I have certainly praised many dozens of WML panelists/contestants. In many ways, several of these shows are a grand point in American cultural history (though who really knew it when these were first aired?) Cheers to all! (RIP to all concerned!)
yeah, but a lot of people do not know ray walston by name, he was my favorite martian, and many years later, he was mr hand on fast times at ridgemont high. aloha mr. hand aloha spicoli
I can remember a game show years ago, possibly "I've Got A Secret" where eggs were involved and the panel took umbrage when "Is it a dairy product?" got a no and they learned the truth. But, honestly, John Daly is right when he says, if it doesn't come out of a cow, it's not a dairy product. Dairies keep cows for milk production, and milk products vary, but eggs come from hens and dairies don't keep chickens.
+ToddSF 94109 I agree that John Daly is right. The confusion comes in because many grocery stores put their eggs in the dairy case. Anyway, Bennett missed a golden opportunity at the end of the show. He could have told John that he is no longer an aristocrat, but he might still become a butter and egg man.
Now, Bennett -- mixing cream with scrambled eggs is *not* the sames as pouring cream onto the breakfast food to consume it, which is what you asked. Most people don't have cream on hand, so they add milk to scrambled eggs. At least my mother did and I do. (Not for omelettes, though -- those should have just eggs in them.)
And Twitch from the Ellen show seemed happy and fulfilled with his career, his beautiful wife and children yet he killed himself. Anyone who thinks they can read a persons soul is truly a troubled person.
adding cream to scrambled eggs. Bennett didn't ask if you could add cream to the product and make a dish out of it. he asked, " would this ever be eaten with cream poured over it." he got the correct answer. scrambled eggs is a dish made with eggs. you add cream to the scrambled eggs then cook it.
Nice speech... It's sad that on the day I hear it, it is 2015. People don't read books any more. Library's all over the country now use computers. Sad... I love books.
I read books. I'm a writer/editor and cannot abide reading on a computer screen, not just because it hurts my eyes but because I love the tacit experience of holding a book, turning its pages, and feeling its heft.
I read and own books. The Feria del Libro in Madrid last year was well attended. I didn’t realise that people go to libraries to use computers. Perhaps for research purposes.
***** -- His son says so. One of his two sons, Christopher Cerf, wrote the introduction to the 2002 republication of "At Random: The Reminiscences of Bennett Cerf" (originally published in 1977). He had nothing but good things to say about his father and wrote that he still missed him in 2001 when he wrote the new intro, which was 30 years after Bennett Cerf's death. I have the impression that Bennett Cerf always tried to do right by the people in his life and did his best, as he put it, when he left a room to see to it that the people in it were happier than when he came in. His sense of humor may have annoyed some, but somehow his jokes always conveyed to me that he was one of the good guys. I note that Bennett Cerf's other son, Jonathan, is still good friends with Arlene Francis's and Martin Gabel's son, Peter Gabel, and that the two of them still play in a dance band called Central Park Zoo, which has been around for a very long time. I have a feeling Jonathan has good things to say about his father, too.
never heard of people thinking chicken eggs are a dairy product. maybe it is because when city people visit a dairy farm and they see the few chickens the farm raises for their own consumption, they assume chicken eggs are the product of a dairy farm.
Eggs are often found in the "Dairy" section of a grocery store, which has lead to many people confusing them as a dairy product. I've enjoyed correcting people in the past with a variation of Arlene's question: Do you think cows lay eggs?
Please remove this moronic troll from the comments section. Unfortunately today's society is full of pathetic losers intent on ruining other people's enjoyment of social media. Fcking clown.
There goes the whole argument on the Right that an embryo is actually alive. Even they knew a life wasn’t a life until it could live without the host back in the “good ole days” when common sense was king.
Yeah, a chicken and a baby human are far from the same. Biology books. You need them. Laid eggs are not viable or alive unless they are fertilized. Egg farmers grab them long before that stage to sell as food. That would be like saying, "Every time a woman has her period (because an egg is released and not fertilized), a "baby" is being killed."
@ You can eat fertilized chicken eggs just as easily as non fertilized eggs. I was obviously talking about fertilized eggs. Reread your biology books, that is if you ever read them at all. I know most eggs in the grocery store are not fertilized but if you live on a farm like I did you more often than not eat fertilized eggs.
@@sobmaz Nvm. I think you're too young and uneducated to understand what I actually said. You totally missed the entire premise of my comment. Comparing human babies to fertilized or unfertilized eggs is like comparing puppies and motorcycles.
@@sobmaz Yes, I noticed you did exactly that. Again, You totally missed the entire premise of my comment. Comparing human babies to fertilized or unfertilized eggs is like comparing puppies and motorcycles.

What comes from cows is dairy. What comes from turkey or chicken is poultry - and that should include their eggs.
That egg inspector looks like a circus strongman.

Quite so. Adding dairy to scrambled eggs is not pouring cream onto eggs. Adding sour grapes doesn’t do much good.

When is the last time you saw an egg drop out of a cow? What do you think a "dairy farm" does? They have cows. All cows.
They're in the refrigerator section alongside the dairy, but they are not a dairy product.

Dorothy is super intelligent and well read but her weak subject is anything to do with animals. She's clearly a city girl.
Is Peter Lind related to Paul Lind?
Paul Lynde, and no.
Yes I believe Paul was his sister
@@MrDetroitnews: hilarious answer as I know both of them as men 😁
an egg was never alive? they are weird :D of course it's alive
Technically an egg isn't alive...until a chick hatches out...then it's alive...sort of...maybe
@@bobhayett2376 you are wrong, the moment the egg starts growing in the chicken, and it's fertilized its already alive
@@Cruz0e you are of course wrong yet again
@@peternagy-im4be no I am not wrong
@@Cruz0e yep you sure are
Boy are you 2 wrong about good tv and books are here to stay
There goes the whole argument on the Right that an embryo is actually alive. Even they knew a life wasn’t a life until it could live without the host back in the “good ole days” when common sense was king.
Yeah, a chicken and a baby human are far from the same. Biology books. You need them. Laid eggs are not viable or alive unless they are fertilized. Egg farmers grab them long before that stage to sell as food.
That would be like saying, "Every time a woman has her period (because an egg is released and not fertilized), a "baby" is being killed."
@ You can eat fertilized chicken eggs just as easily as non fertilized eggs. I was obviously talking about fertilized eggs. Reread your biology books, that is if you ever read them at all. I know most eggs in the grocery store are not fertilized but if you live on a farm like I did you more often than not eat fertilized eggs.
@@sobmaz Nvm. I think you're too young and uneducated to understand what I actually said. You totally missed the entire premise of my comment. Comparing human babies to fertilized or unfertilized eggs is like comparing puppies and motorcycles.
@@broughtbackin Well, that is one way to dismiss the entire argument when you realize you are wrong.
@@sobmaz Yes, I noticed you did exactly that. Again, You totally missed the entire premise of my comment. Comparing human babies to fertilized or unfertilized eggs is like comparing puppies and motorcycles. I can't keep explaining the same thing over and over to you if you can't even understand my basic premise. You're the one insulting me and it seems you're trolling at this point.
Arelene s hair style was the worse I've seen her have.
Wtf is Dorothy wearing....
A cocktail dress like she and Arlene usually wear.
A little black dress.
@@accomplice55 The "barrel" design completely caught me off guard.
The f word is never used on WML and its viewers usually want to get away from bad language.
