      Indeed. Steve and let's not forget Jack Paar... but Steve was the OG. As a kid, I got to watch Steve Allen (both The Tonight Show & the Steve Allen Show) and Jack Paar work their magic, along with Groucho and Ernie Kovaks. Television was exciting. When Johnny Carson ultimately replaced Paar, people wondered who this kid was ... yet Carson proved to be a more than worthy successor. It was great... they were great. Fond memories.

      And both were also incredibly accomplished for the time. Dorothy was famous nationwide for her journalism work and Arlene had found success both as a stage actress and even a TV show host (parts of episodes from her NBC show, "Home", which focused on new household products and recreational stuff, are actually on RUclips!).

  • @jimmichaud8487
    @jimmichaud8487 9 месяцев назад +3

    Yes! I was hoping that the nudist colony woman would be one of the top 10 moments. Dorothy's "a-ha" moment was priceless! Not too shabby coming in at the runner up spot. An added bonus: the mystery guest star for that particular episode (aired 6/14/53) was none other than the legendary US Senator Margaret Chase Smith from my home state of Maine. "Small but mighty" state indeed (as Dorothy put it-who correctly guessed who she was).

    Awesome collection for such a wonderful sharp, versatile person, as Steve Allen pointed out the show after her shocking death, the panel didn't get any of the lines, and the show was indeed never the same without her brilliance. I think they should've taken a week off, don't buy the excuse that Dick said on essence "the show must go on," and it's still shocking to me what happened to her that Monday night after her last show

      Yes, because they had someone who made false tails for horses. There are some occupations that are so specific, you cannot think there is someone who does that. And the panel many times was WTF?! (once they had someone who counted fish and Dorothy said "You are joking"!)And at one point they just weren't surprised any more no matter what the occupation is, cause they've seen it enough

    Why was Dorothy Kilgallen on "What's My Line?" frequently asking a mystery guest on the show if he or she ever studied dentistry? Did she actually expect a mystery guest to sometimes be a dentist? The poster of this video clip should have titled it, "My Top 10 Dorothy Kilgallen Moments on 'What's My Line?' ". There should be no apostrophe s after the name Kilgallen and the words "my line" should be capitalized.

    • @fmphotooffice5513
      @fmphotooffice5513 3 года назад +7

      True, but I think it was a throw-away question, that and the helicopter question. When you're on TV you have to be "on" every second- no "dead air". She was brilliant enough (and regarded very highly) so that when it was time to pass to the next questioner, she was confident enough to just use one of her standard stand-by questions from time to time, rather than making up an insipid quip on the spot the way some panelists trying to be witty would often do. It sounds like it was frequent, but it wasn't. This show ran for many, many years.
