While it would return on ABC a few years later and from Los Angeles, they didn’t know it then.

After watching a few players I think Betty White was the best...she gives the best words and is so quick. Also charming and lovely to her partners. It's so nice to see how gentlemanly the men are...always rising for the ladies. As a person from traditional Eastern country where these graces are still practiced, it is nice to still see them in old Western society (sadly rarer to see in today's west)
