This show is great! Groucho is funny even after sixty plus years! There aren't hardly any other quiz shows that could hold up after sixty years so this one is a gem!
That French women was utterly delightful and charming .
👍👍👍👍
I discovered these in reruns like thirty years ago, and I've got all the Marx bros. movies on DVD. they were all so talented musically as well as comically, and Groucho was so funny without being dirty like most comedians these days. thanks all of you who have posted these shows. I could watch them all day.
All of us posting these say "You're welcome".
Watch the outtakes. He had a bawdy humor. So funny.
How did Groucho do comedy without saying "fuck" all the time? This is some kind of magic trick or something. A lost art.
Groucho was "dirty" for his time. Just watch some outtakes.
The French lady was absolutely gorgeous!
All French women were, including my mother😊
HG is right about women in politics. Look what the dingbats have done to California
That's a shallow thing to say. The problem is left-wing lunatics with a low-resolution understanding of the world, and that disease afflicts male and female.
Groucho is the one who had the balls. He let these people walk straight up and talk
I'd like to see HG Morton go up against Judge Judy.
I would like to meet H G Morton. . The guy has such stupid ideas that he is funny. The guy is probably a racist too. I would trap him. He says women should lose the right to vote. Then I would ask him who he thinks should not have the right to vote, a white woman or a black man. If he says neither then I got him. By not allowing women to vote then I assume it ok for men to vote by his definition but he just indicated black men should not vote either. Then I would tell him to make up his mind and he couldn't. The idiot would be trapped.
Or Kamala Harris!
@@caroler01 Good ole Komrade Kamala!
@@MrMenefrego1 so, you have learned nothing.
@@caroler01 ?
I thought she was actually going to have something to say!
Well, parody or no, H. G. Morton was right about one thing. Allowing women to vote absolutely jumpstarted the process by which the greatest country in the history of the world is now, in 2021, to be found spiraling the drain.
YEP
13m34s G: "How would you dominate women, make faces at them". Love it!
About the drive-in restaurants:
“.... they can’t get out of the car. The minute you get out of your car in this country some crook of the finance company drives in and drives it away.”
Hahaha 😀
100% a fact😢
I agree with your opinion... it may have been a put on or it may not who knows. Since there was no internet, it makes sense that the audience would contact the Groucho show and demand equal time. And yes it makes perfect sense that there would be a lot of women who would be turned on by that old-fashioned approach to " the home". Mind that at least half of the women in that audience were born in the 1800s
Groucho was the greatest
Agree 1000 percent on taking the vote away.
Mee too
And then the dominant couple used the money to get a room😂
22m36s G "If neither question comes up" ... don't blame him ... he's said it 100000000000000000 times
5m3s "Your a gentleman"; G: "That's what you think". I wonder if she got it.
Thank goodness for Groucho! This male guest is just full of it. Of course women should get higher education if they choose to! Who do you think is raising the next generation of little boys?
Damn that HG Morton guy had huge balls.
20m22s George Feneman "You now have 3 right, don't get the next one right or we'll be down $1000." :)
Love it
Imagine HG Morton today? Maybe he felt that this day would happen, and that Men had to put a stop to it. But hey, it is what it is. Life goes On.
He had a point though it was overboard and misdirected. "Feminism" was and is an attack on the family. I am female btw
Morton today would be the warm up speaker at a Trump rally.
@@ealswytheangelicrealms you must be in love and obsessed with Donald Trump because you respond the same thing on alot of replies. No kidding either.
@@tinajohnson3393 Oh you must be in league with the WOKE left - the minions who dont know what a woman is and who enforce illegal criminals to flood our innocent towns and cities and then turn around and defund our ONLY protection - our police. You must be the left lover who stands for illegal riots burning down every city in the nation and crime unleashed. I rather Trump anyday over the communists trying to take ALL our freedoms away today. You are an institutionalized hatchling.
@@ealswytheangelicrealms Better to have a president who keeps us free and healthy like Trump than a communist like Biden, Kamsmella, or Obomination!! You sleeper!!
cool, nostalgic tv.
Glad you're enjoying it, Richard. This is a very unfairly forgotten show now, having been out of reruns entirely for 20 years.
Groucho Marx - You Bet Your Life ...and thanks to you, even Europeans can watch it now! ;D
Well, both make the mistake of painting with a very broad brush. In my view, we are all given talents and abilities and certain types of smarts that make each of us unique. However, ideally, I believe God created most men to have a leadership role in relationships. However, that isn't ALWAYS the case, and that's all right. Every individual is different and every couple is different. Men and women should respect each others' roles and work together to make a wonderful life together rather than being at odds with each other. Mutual respect and a willingness by both partners to sacrifice is the key.
"You could go to the salon if you disguised yourself as a lady."
"I have hard enough time disguising myself as a man."
👀
I have to admit that I found myself agreeing when she said *"If they can find a man that's man enough to dominate them"* It's absolutely true.
Confidence is different to domination
Yeah, women want their men to be strong, both mentally and physically, there is no doubt on that.
Women should have long hair. They don't need to look like men. Morton was a smart guy , a man is the head of the house. But the man and wife can work out things together.
even in the fifties the b.s. was spread that women are smarter than men, and today they continue to push the "woman as victim" in every aspect of society.
YEP.
Parody isn't supposed to become reality
I don't understand why someone would turn down a chance for the big money even if you lose you still get $500.
Why would people give up 6 months wages, for a chance to lose half?
$1000 is not much by 2021 thinking/monetary value, but to someone in 1959, it represented 6 months wages.
Most people did not have $1000 in the bank, and "a bird in hand... " $1000 in hand, is worth more than $10,000 you might never win.
Today, would you gamble half of your yearly salary $9,000, on a small chance of winning $45,000/$90,000? I'd bet you would not, unless you had a nest egg hidden somewhere. These people didn't.
In 1959, $1000 was a lot of money, and people would rather be safe than sorry...that was a prevailing feeling at a poor time in history.
Remember the era, as most of these people just lived through "WWII", the Korean War, and were getting into Vietnam; and all of their parents just lived through the "Great Depression", which destroyed many...so money was no joke to them, and they didn't gamble with a better life, unless they had extra cash to lose...few did.
Then Today
1959 ----2021
$500 = $4,500
$1,000 = $9,000
2,000 = $18,000
5,000 = $45,000
10,000 = $90,000 = 5.20 years wages
The min. wage was $1.00/hour = $8/8 hour day = $40/40 hour week.
$160/month and $1920/year.
I know, right? I think they went through the Great Depression and were a lot more stingy with cash.
This guy was way ahead of his time.
That HG Morton is a nutcase ...what a fool ....love Pat good job ....yayyyyy
Morton got a job today as the warm up speaker at Trump rally's.
Morton was a great actor and was acting the entire time with Groucho! Watch both episodes again. It was an act.
I can't believe people today didn't pick up on Morton and Groucho's act or parody.
Thank you. Someone gets it
He is so right about women in politics. They are just too emotional.
Look at the female GARGABE we have in congress and the senate now?? ?It is such a giant joke, I am embarrassed to watch any of it. Never mind the disgusting DEI judges around the nation destroying innocent lives because the DEI judges are sooo corrupt and hate anybody outside of their race. Our country is a sewer pit with these demonic clowns.
Every week we are asked to follow these conversations, only the host keeps making us laugh.
She said her name is Eliane, not Elaine. Eliane is a beautiful French name. Incidentally, when I was teaching English in a Swiss night school, and asked everyone their names, one woman answered, "I'm Alien." She thought she was pronouncing Eliane the English way ...
Pretty dress the first woman has on.
And after YBYL, HG Morton and his society disappeared into the mists of history. Interestingly, if you Google "Society for the Domination of Women" without his name, Google interprets "of" as a synonym for "by" and pulls up links for stories on various matriarchies around the world, on matriarchies in theory and matriarchies in general. If I hadn't read the introductory notes, I would have interpreted the name of the organization the same way Google did. I'll let someone with a degree in psychiatry or psychology decide if there was any deeper meaning to him choosing a name that could (and arguably more likely would) be interpreted in a way totally contrary to his goals and beliefs.
Anyway, Morton left me feeling colder than the anti-freeze salesman did.
He is, he was a scumbag.
That's what you think 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And he was absolutely right about all of it!! Feminism RUINED this nation and WOMEN are the sole reason we are in the crapper today like we are. Congrats!! Morton's society NEVER existed. This was all a joke to the show!!
HG Morton's general demeanour reminds me exactly of the Klan 'Grand Wizard' interviewed when the fuss blew up in the US with John Lennon being misrepresented on the whole 'bigger than Jesus' débacle. He has that smug, dangerous certainty that is so dangerous.
Thars a stretch since Morton was putting on an act with Groucho.
You folks need have a drink and relax. This guy is a transparent put on; and he even has a hard time avoiding laughing at himself. He is deliberately chosen the most absurd ideas to promote and nobody is taking him seriously except the humourless viewers. He appears in two episodes. The first episode got an enormous response by mail from women; most of whom stated they had fallen in love with him. In his second appearence he is teamed with a woman who is prepared to vigorously retort his ideas. At no time does he display any "attitude" towards her, and, in fact, he is extremely cordial without any hint of chauvanism. Of course it is the folly of the time that one can just arbitrarily judge human behavior from a different era and assume some false sense of moral superiority because you don't understand the humor of the day. It's a put on. It's a parody of a discussion that was beginning to take stage. And it's funny. Obviously the name SODOWOW and H.G. Morton are just made up. The woman advocate got in her shots, and it didn't bother him a bit. One needs to be observant of human behavior, not obsess on dialogue. But then this is an age when we are systematically destroying anything that resembles human behavior, including humor.
You wrote some interesting philosophy.
I even cannot find such a society on the internet archives.
He indeed might have been a put on. Groucho also mentioned him in his autobiography “Groucho and me”. And curiously enough, most of the female letter writers indicated they had fallen in love with him!
He must have been married after that 😉
@@HoffNL I'm just judging the behavior. He and that woman co-contestant got along really cordially and looked like they were having fun. And he did not relate to her as if he really was an advocate for those extreme ideas. He actually deferred to her a bit. It was entertaining. If the audience took him seriously they probably would not have been laughing.
@@HoffNL The only thing I could find on the internet was that somebody by this name appeared on this show. And the letters, why did they send those to the show if there was a real organization? And they were having too much fun.
I don't doubt he was a put-on; Groucho's show wasn't the 100% spontaneous ad-lib fest it was marketed as. A lot of off-the-cuff things did happen, and Groucho was definitely a master of the improvised quick comeback, but some segments were definitely set up for him.
My feeling was Morton just came with thus funny story to be on YBYL. We know they selected people with some unusual qualities skills or jobe. .
he's got me with a ram???
1641. And 100% of the poone
A feminist but still accommodating to let him, a chauvinist, kiss her on the mouth.
No feminist, chauvinist back then.😅
That Morton guy was great
Ha, smart guy, he knows how to get the things done!
I'm disappointed they couldn't find a smarter, more articulate woman to defend America's females.
Women didn't need defending back then. Morton was a very rare bird! 😊
You mean a feminist bitch who hates men like today?? I thought so.
*Pat* Hunter was aptly named... Like the *Pat* on 'Saturday Night Live' many years ago.
H.G. Morton is a "take-up". It's a parody which exaggerates a position with the purpose of illuminating that position's flaws and satirizing that position. Part of the danger of assuming you can look back sixty years and judging people without any understanding of the vernacular of the time. Today, we are obsessed with taking everything literally and passing judgement, whether it's warranted or not. This obsession has destroyed parody, satire and self effacing humor in general.
Morton has actually been given a job as warm up speaker at Trump rallies
@@ealswytheangelicrealms Trump didn't have rallies back then. What do you mean.
I know right. I can't believe people didn't catch on to the acting Morton and Groucho were doing. It's quite obvious.
@@bernieweber4663 They're not being literal.
A woman's place is at home, to be keepers of the family. That's what's wrong with the world today, women are strong will most of them. A man needs to come home to a clean house and food on the table. That short hair woman I'd say was a bossy wife .
Simply the funniest and best game show.
"What happens if I don't use anti-freeze, if I .........next sentences????
The engine block cracks, this happened to many newcomers in Wyoming. It wasn't till a few years later when they invented an engine block heater. An electric cord was plugged in and circulated the hot water to keep it from freezing. Coldest temp here was 70 Below, 50 mph tons of snow!
Was this the start of political correctness by the media.
HG Morton sounded more like todays Islamic fundamentalist, glaringly obvious that HG Morton wasn't preaching Christian values.
I think his partner I had a more balanced approach to the subject.
Unfortunately, Pat kind of shot herself in the foot when she said that women actually do like to be dominated "if they can find a man who's man enough to dominate 'em." Not exactly a feminist sentiment.
Morton found a job today as a warm up speaker at Trump rally's.
@@ealswytheangelicrealms TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP the love of your life. You know he is.
Morton was acting a part with Groucho.
@@bernieweber4663 That was my impression about Morton. He struck me as a real nice guy who came with some phony stories to be on YBTYL.
Groucho say when you get married sometimes you only get a pig. I would have followed it with at least I get plenty of bacon.
🤕
she didn't give a rebuttal ... she agrees with him. She was a disappointment.
What ever became of MR H G Morton?
F y
The Republican Party is going to dig up H G Morton and have him run for President in 2024. That guy Morton makes Trump look like a good guy. People say who the heck would vote for Trump as the Republican nominee in 2024. A LOT of people would if this nut Morton was running against him.
Mr. Morton is a parody which is a exaggerated position to expose the opposite position. You are the epitome of the problem. Taking people seriously and labeling them to a group you want to stereotype. Your thinking has ruined comedy and satire completely.
