    You look at the way Clarence Charles Nash does Donald’s voice, and he makes it look so easy, while the current actor Tony Anselmo looks like he has to put a lot of effort into doing the voice.
    Just goes to show you, everyone creates voices in their own ways, but some just have it down to an art that it becomes seamless. 😊

So Mamie Van Doren worked with Hope a whole 3 months and you are using her so called opinion to attack a man? Did you vet her too? Of course not. Maybe EVERYONE hated Mamie Van Doren. Why does she get a free pass? And what was Hope supposed to do? When he did those shows he was almost 70 years old, and you talk like right afterwards he should have gone up to the line and done a combat patrol. And for that you call him a son of a bitch? Well... what does that make you? The day when you do anything remotely as useful to the nation as Mr Hope did HIS ENTIRE LIFE then you can open your nasty mouth.

      @tubularap 4 года назад +7

      John Daly was a good host overall, but he often lacked the capacity to step back when the moments were there, like in having the guests talk some for themselves. Even with the celebrity mystery guests he tends to take centre stage. I'm sure it was not all ego; he had a show to run and was responsible for the time limits. Letting a guest talk requires listening while being able to breaks them off gently when the time was up. John was a professional news-achor and used to control the broadcast. But for this role he should have trained himself more for being a host that can yield attention to the guest.
      I also totally agree with that 4th guest crammed in at the end. Very embarrassing. Excess time after the celebrity guest could have been easily filled with a spontaneous talk. John could let the panellists pose questions to the celebrity and have the public be entertained with some back-and-fort banter.
      Sure, it wasn't a format being used then, and maybe the sponsors would object, because they sponsor a quiz show, not a chit-chat show.
      Anyway; This is all history now, so we have to take it as it is :-)

      @@crazyjamaica50 I am among those who watched this as a kid. My parents did. They watched Steve Allen and later Jack Paar. I became what my aunt would have called "a dirty stay up." I was a night owl. I am not sure if these wonderful shows with funny, educated people on them caused it or I was just lucky enough to have found them while up late at night. I got good grades and loved school, so my parents were right there with me watching. Generally, the younger children were all in bed. I have to say it is interesting for me to see from a sociological point of view how wrong we are in our views of how people were treated in the 1950s. I was a child and in that sense not out in the world. I watch this now and realize that, partially because it was show biz, the attitudes toward African-Americans were quite liberated and respectful of their accomplishments. There was an honoring of true gifts, like those of a Frank Lloyd Wright. No one made a big deal out of homosexuality. It was, of course, a delight to see that there was no ill will toward Japanese or German guests. Latin American guests were treated as though they came from the ancient, unique cultures that are theirs. But several areas found the era disgustingly wanting in its treatment of people and in a public way such as this show was: first was the catcalls and comments to women directly about their bodies and looks; second was the humiliatingly silly jokes about aboriginal tribal people's birth names, reservation upbringing, and customs; third was the outright rude references to people's weight if they were above the panelist questioner's perception of the norm or acceptable. This was to the point that in one show a woman was promoting a weight loss helper and the panelist told her at the end that she should consider taking it. She talked to John and he later said when she'd left the stage that she had in fact lost 60 pounds or thereabouts on it and had another year and perhaps 40 pounds to go. Why plague someone due to your own prejudices? This was a guest panelist I loved as an all-around talent in show biz. But he was nasty rude to her. Possibly there are some men who are randy enough to be offended by a woman's appearance if she dares to exist in a form that isn't pleasing to him and he would not seek her company, save for intimacy, so dismisses her as someone he can simply write off as not a locus of rights. Though a quite good moderator, the other thing I did not recall from my ill-spent youth was how in love with himself John Daly was and how he talked so much about himself and his friends and his history with the mystery guests that Arlene or Dorothy or guest panelists frequently had to step in toward the end and state what book the author had just written or the name of the movie coming out or how exceptional a performance had been in something worthy like "Sunrise at Campobello" and so on. When they wanted to do a retrospective on the show, the bigwigs were stunned that they could not use almost any of the interviews with any mystery guests because they were so full of Daly being full of himself and not getting to the public relations, advertising point of the guests' visits. It is a pity because even amidst John's mental masturbation was now and again some quite interesting information on the mystery guest and their work. I do remember well how exceptional the panelists were and what fun they were and how wittily naughty at times and just entertaining. Possibly some of this is due to them all being accomplished people in their own fields who were well-read and came from normal homes and had panache and humor. Even most of the guest panelists fell into this sterling category.

    Bob Hope was born in England on May 29, 1903, moved to the U.S.A. at four years of age, and died at the age of 100 (plus nearly two months) on July 27, 2003. His real name was Leslie Townes Hope. He used to say that in boarding school as a boy, they'd call roll each day, using each kid's last name followed by his first name, so each morning, when they got to his name, it was read out "Hope, Leslie". And, so, his school mates gave him the nickname "Hopelessly". In 1929, he adopted the stage name "Bob Hope" -- never "Robert", as far as I can tell, and it wasn't ever a legal name change. I note that he could sing -- the Christmas standard "Silver Bells" was first introduced in the 1951 film _The Lemon Drop Kid_, sung as a duet by Bob Hope and Marilyn Maxwell. They filmed that picture in July and August 1950 -- and, strangely, in October 1950, the first recording of the song was released in time for Christmas sung by (who else?) Bing Crosby with Carol Richards. So Hope was upstaged on that one, but the Crosby recording was so successful that Hope and Maxwell were summoned back to the studio in late 1950 to re-film the number in a more elaborate production, included in the 1951 release of the movie.
    Bob Hope always seemed to me like someone who would live forever. He nearly did.

      There was one more name associated with Bob Hope. As a teen, he had four professional bouts in the 128 lb. class with a record of 3 and 1. He fought under the name of Packy East. He might have need to fight under an alias because he was under age 18 when he had his first bout. But there is also a bit of a pun in the name. Say it quickly and you have "Pack of yeast", a fast-rising boxer.

Even if they had a product sponsor for an entire show today they'd get a lot more than 2 minutes worth of commercials. If they didn't you can bet the network would be selling the other 8 minutes to somebody now that they've discovered they can get away with running ads for a 1/3 of the program.

    In 1933, Nash became the 125th employee for Disney, at a salary of $35 (about $800 today) per week. To justify that salary, Disney, who was not known for his generosity, also had Nash performing other tasks, mostly clerical in nature. Nash also voiced Donald's nephews, Scrooge McDuck, and other small voice roles. He occasionally voiced Mickey Mouse when Walt Disney (who voiced Mickey for several years) wasn't available.

    I don't think he ever appeared on WML, but Clarence Nash's appearance in this episode made me think of Mel Blanc, who did so many different voice characterizations for Warner Brothers' cartoon features (and for other studios later on), plus voice work in radio comedies. Blanc would have made an excellent contestant, though he probably would have had to sign in as "Mr. X", because his name was pretty well known and maybe even blindfolds would have been required, because someone like Fred Allen (himself a radio comedian) probably worked with Mel Blanc at some point.

    • @WhatsMyLine

    An interesting thing about people who can perform the Donald Duck voice: When some people perform the voice, the listener can decipher what is being said with relative ease. However, when Clarence Nash did the voice, though it sounded great, his actual words being said were harder to make out. Though I have played Clarence Nash's first line spoken here as Donald Duck at different playback speeds, I'm still unsure of what he was saying!
