  • Here's the third of four uncut episodes with original commercials I started posting a couple of days ago. As always, I preserved as much as possible of my original copy due to its much higher a/v quality. But what a treat to have the original commercials in any watchable video quality-- it takes away a bit of the sting of Dorothy Kilgallen's imminent departure.
    MYSTERY GUEST: Andy Griffith
    PANEL: Arlene Francis, Steve Allen, Dorothy Kilgallen, Bennett Cerf
    Many thanks, as always, to epaddon for providing his copy of the complete episode.

    My cousin was born on the day Dorothy died, and I was just 7 months old, myself. I never knew about Dorothy Kilgallen until 2015, when I stumbled upon WML just by chance. So glad I found out about it. It’s been my favorite way to relax after a long day, ever since, and I’ve gotten to see all those old celebrities I’ve only heard about. RIP, Dorothy - you were an intelligent and delightful person.

      It's mostly because it embraced the era in which it was made; basically a period piece to anyone watching it today. It's as much a historical record as it is a comedy show. Unlike most other shows from the era which were hidden behind bland sets and didn't really encompass /actual/ everyday life of the time.

      After the first season or so, all contestants got the $50 regardless, because of possible legal issues of fraud, collusion, etc. such as when John might inadvertently give a clue. Also, when he decides the panel is "close enough" and announces the nature of the 'line', it could be troublesome to a contestant who wants the full $50 and would argue they got shorted.

      Except for two things, One: his singing on the show became more of a recurrence in the last couple years of the AG series (after this WML episode), and Two: since it wasn't what Andy was ever primarily know for, even a qualified yes would have misled the panel. Its okay to mislead the panel with a regular contestant, but it would have been poor taste for John to even slightly mislead the panel while guessing a "C-list" celebrity.

      I was not crazy about his politics, but he was a very talented performer who ruled TV in the 1960's, and while many of the old studio actors would not have been caught dead on TV, then, there were more people watching TV than were going to the movies, each week, by far, then.
      The "A" stood for ANDY and Andy stood for "A" LIST if not in the movie sense, but in every sense of the word on TV in the 1960's..and he was an "A"- LIST TALENT.

      And, in 1965, ALL OF HIS STUFF, the SPECIAL, HIS SHOW, AND HIS DESILU /THOMAS SPINOFF, PYLE USMC, had been in the top ten, and with his weekly for awhile, for years back to 1960, being there, it was obvious that he was enormously popular... By the way, the NO TIME FOR SERGEANTS movie, OR THE COMEDY RECORD: WHAT IT WAS, WAS FOOTBALL.. were also enormously popular..AND LIKE A FACE IN THE CROWD, WERE ALL 1950'S STUFF.
      He was established. You're wrong.
      His problem was he became typecasted...by the audience..thus, he struck out in movies after that and any tv show that played against the ANDY TAYLOR role..with his fans not buying it, until he found Matlock..

      I'm old enough to remember when CBS used to air sitcom reruns for 2 hours in the morning, from 9 AM to 11 AM Central Time (right after "Captain Kangaroo"). When I was in kindergarten, the line-up was "The Lucy Show," followed by "The Real McCoys," followed by what was billed as "Andy of Mayberry" (reruns of "The Andy Griffith Show"), followed by "The Dick Van Dyke Show." A year or 2 or 3 later, "The Real McCoys" was replaced in the line-up by re-runs of "The Beverly Hillbillies."
      Then, of course, I reacquainted myself with "The Andy Griffith Show" (and "The Dick Van Dyke Show") some years later when they ran and ran and ran the reruns on WGN-TV (Channel 9) in Chicago, as part of WGN's family-friendly programming. Those were the days......

I grew up in those times, girls and women were constantly scrutinized and dissected for every little bit of their appearance. And underneath those dresses, the foundation garments we put up with. That was just as pantyhose were becoming available. Before that, it was garter belts, girdles, ugh! And if one bit of your slip was visible below your hemline, or a strap happened to slip off your shoulder - OMG! Shame! Mortification! You have no idea. There was a reason why women rebelled.

    Everyone remembers Andy Griffith as a loveable character actor, especially his stage performance in No Time for Sergeants, later filmed in 1958. But if you have never seen him push the limits of nastiness take a look at his first major film A Face in the Crowd, 1957. I thought his performance was worthy of an Oscar nomination for Best Actor. He was a very talented actor with much greater range than many realize.

    The final challenger was asked about special training to become a stockbroker. The response was "No". As a former stockbroker for 20+ years, I believe that was incorrect. I had to pass an exam that required knowledge of an extensive amount of material. I am fairly certain that such an exam would have been required back in the 1960's.
    An interesting contrast between two Goodson-Todman shows, WML and Password, is seen once again in this episode. From time to time WML had stockbrokers as challengers. They were generally female. It was a rarity in the 1950's and 1960's when the original WML aired. It was much more common when I was a stockbroker (1983-2004).
    In contrast, Password often had stockbroker trainees as contestants when the shows were in NYC. Of all the ones I've seen, all of them were male. There is such a disproportionate number from that profession (and a specialized one at that, trainees) I have to wonder how it came about.
    Unfortunately when I was studying to become a stockbroker, Password was not on the air.
