Melina Mercouri is SO charming!
Kelly Lange became the first female newscaster in Los Angeles. She is. also a famed mystery writer.
This is probably Barbara Feldon's second appearance on the show. On May 12, 1957, the Ziegfeld Girls were the first MG. Their "leader", or at least the one who was seated while the others stood behind her, was identified as Barbara Hall. That was Barbara Feldon's name at the time; she took the surname Feldon when she got married the following year. The resemblance between Barbara Hall and Barbara Feldon is striking, leading some of us to believe that they were one and the same.

As to your last comment: I thought that, too! But, according to her IMDB profile, apparently not. Her divorce from Lucien Verdoux-Feldon was finalized on 21 April 1967, and she wouldn't move in with Burt Nodella until the following year. By the way: She was also a big-money winner on "The $64,000 Question" back in 1957 - answering questions about Shakespeare.

Barbara Feldon never had children. As far as the dress, those tent style dresses were in fashion at the time. The first challenger also wears one.
By this point in her life and career, Melina Mercouri was now married to American movie director Jules Dassin. Originally, Dassin was based here in America, and when he was based here in America, his most famous picture was the Noir classic "The Naked City", which inspired the TV show of the same name. But then he was blacklisted (not unlike Louis Untermeyer, former WML panelist), and he moved to Europe. In 1955, he met Melina Mercouri, and during his new career as an American filmmaker based in Europe, he continued to make criticially and commercially successful movies, most of which featured Mercouri, including "He Who Must Die","The Law", "Phaedra", "Topkapi", "10:30 P.M. Summer", "The Promise at Dawn", "A Dream of Passion", and, the most famous of all, "Never on Sunday". Mercouri married Dassin in 1966, a marriage that lasted until her death in 1994. Dassin died in 2008.

Hard to believe she was 32 when Get Smart premiered in Sep. 1965. She told TV Guide she was 24, with a 1941 birth year, but she fudged her age by 8 years, born in 1933. She still looked younger than 32 when GS premiered!

Though the war was huge news at the time, WML maintained its feel-good nature by not talking about it.

She was a woman of many talents. Many Europeans probably associate her name with politics rather than entertainment. She was a notable figure in European politics for decades. She became politically engaged after the coup d'état in Greece, just a few weeks before this appearance on WML. When the military junta collapsed in 1974, she moved back to Greece to become a full time politician. She became a member of the Greek parliament in 1977, and held the position as minister of culture for many years, 1981-89 and again from 1993 until her death in 1994.

What a bizarre episode! The whale trainer was said to deal in a product as well as a service ... but that's misleading because she wasn't selling or supplying whales to anyone, for instance raising them for other aquariums. Just because there is a physical item used in the service, that doesn't make it a product; otherwise we'd have to consider the soccer ball used by the last contestant a product. And how did John and Kelly Lange get away with giving "yes" answers to clothing and/or jewelry? Even if she wore something like a flight suit while in the helicopter for comfort or safety, that's so incidental to radio broadcasting as to be misleading with respect to the service. I intended to watch this episode to calm down after a rough day, but found myself so annoyed by these strange answers that it didn't have the intended effect.

+Neil Midkiff I can let them slide on the first contestant vis a vis dealing in a product because it is consistent with how they presented similar situations in the past. I was also scratching my head during the second segment related to clothing and/or jewelry and there never was an explanation of what that meant. The only thing I could think of, and it would be extremely tangential was that the sponsor for the traffic reports was either a clothing store or a jewelry store. It turned out that the explanation was different. As part of the sexploitation novelty gimmick of two female helicopter traffic reporters (they were not the pilots), "Dawn and Eve O'Day" wore silver lamé jumpsuits. But it worked out well for Kelly Lange. She would become a co-anchor of the news at NBC's local station in L.A. Not bad for a fashion model who got on line at a shopping center thinking that they were giving something away. She was also the most frequent co-host of the Rose Bowl Parade (often with Michael Landon). According to TV Guide, she was the first local newscaster to be paid more than $1 million per year. Note: not the first female, the first male or female.

How is training whales a "sport" or provides a "product"? What do clothing abd jewelry have to do with helicopter radio traffic reorts?
I like the idea of Moshe Dayan being on the show
Killer whales are NOT properly whales. Orcas are a type of dolphin. Constant misuse seems to set words in granite. Like referring to the Pennsylvania "Dutch" who are not Dutch. It was a mispronounciation of "Deutsch" which is German for German.

Like calling the United States a democracy when it’s really a Constitutional Republic. The president even does this. Most people don’t think on their own, very impressionable 😢

Why did Melina Mecouri have to check with John as to whether she was a man? Very strange.

1957, 10 years before her appearance as a panelist.
Why so hazy focus?
What's up with John Daly? He's been tripping over his words for longer than I can remember. Listen to him at 21:00
Melina Mercouri's husband talking to Israel they need talking to again.
Wowsers, that (9:01)'s the former NBC local 'biggie' (Ms Kelly Lang). I sight know what she did after leaving TV (I won't bother to say 'news', nor 'reporting'), but she's become a mystery book author (kzread.info/dash/bejne/eI5sw8GDY8rUZpM.html).
Whales are not products. I think John is wrong here.
Her parents must of wanted a boy naming her Jerry. 🤦

A Girl Named Jerry, modeled after A Boy Named Sue (Johnny Cash). Now, either name can be either gender, anytime they feel like it!
Game #2: it's annoying, from a 21st century perspective, to see how attached the panel is to the idea that a beautiful woman can only exhibit clothes or jewelry or perform jobs directly connected to her physical appearance. They simply can't move past that that.
I’ve always thought Bennett is mouthy.
Cerf always hogs the conversation with the mystery guests after the reveal. Tries to maximize his camera time and prove what he knows. Ham
Those legs tho (Dawn O’Day)

Arlene laughed so what she said was all in good fun.
Melina Mercouri in her activist-actress period. Eventually she was elected to the Parliament of Greece and eventually became a Cabinet Minister in the Government of Greece. She was known to slap people who disagreed with her on politics -- [;^>) something you sometimes wish Hilary Clinton or Diane Feinstein would do. About this time, Robert Kennedy was dithering over whether he should run for the Presidency opposing Lyndon Johnson. Melina and he found themselves attending the same function one night. She swept up to him and said, according to "The American Melodrama: the presidential campaign of 1968," "You don't want to be remembered as the man who waited too long, do you?" One way or another Kennedy DID wait too long.
Why did they spend the first 5 minutes introducing each other over solicitously. And then "may I present the panel". And then the host's "conferences" after each of the generic questions. Gimma a break! TTTT was much better; they didn't do any of that
Am I alone in this, thinking that that while Melina Mercouri had an interesting look, she was not that attractive (except, I guess to Italians)?
