So true! The panel, host and guests were all so intelligent.

Of all the 50s, 60's, 70s girl groups the McGuire Sisters were the prettiest (and so talented).

I note that, as is common with clergy contestants (mystery guest or otherwise), even the female members of the panel stood up to shake hands with Rev. Mrs. McGuire.

However, this is the only episode in the history of WML thus far in which Dorothy rose for a clergy who was not Roman Catholic (since Rev. Mrs. McGuire did not have a Roman Catholic title). Her exception in standing here must be because of this clergy's connection to show business. I never thought a willingness to stand only for clergy of her own faith was a credit to Dorothy and making an exception for this apparent reason also does not do her credit.

I LOVE Bennett Cerf's naivete. He's such a boy in a grown man's body. Bless im. Here he is this week...contemplating the possibility of each Oscar being made of SOLID GOLD. (awwww, bless!) Then responding with an exclamation mark when he finds out they're actually made of tin...."Tin?!?!?" I can well imagine how he loved his life, having a wonderful time hanging out with those connected with the celebrity performer world. All those 'adorable creatures' as he calls the women-folk. Innocently and dreamily admiring the incredible talents of the stars passing through Manhattan. It must've been like visiting the Land Of Oz after a day's work at his publishing house. And fair play to him, he's a classic introvert who puts precedence on what is external to him. Genuinely and sincerely respectful to the hilt of whoever meets that has talent. I like people like that. Prefer them to the narcissists (of which there were many in Hollywood, that's for sure!).

I’m sure she could have got the Oscar one fairly, but Daly really gave ridiculously helpful answers for no reason, saying that they would like to have association with one (making it obvious that it was something prestigious that couldn’t be bought), which they hadn’t asked about, and that it was non-jewellery adornment, which they also hadn’t.

Stunning trio :-)

Besides the new arrangement of the Theme song, the animated graphics have been newly drawn for the first time in years.

Merv Griffin started as a singer. 1962 is early in his game show stage, and before his talk show stage, a stage that lasted sometime in to the 1980s. Any person who developed Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune cannot be all bad.

Merv had two talk show periods (roughly speaking) On October 1st, 1962 (the same day Johnny Carson debuted on the "Tonight Show") Merv began a live 55 minute daytime show on NBC. It lasted less than a year. A few years afterward he began his syndicated show, which lasted through several syndicators, plus a couple of years stint on CBS late night in the early 70's. He retired from talk TV in 1986.

Dorothy got it more than anyone!

Daly ran the clock up to the wire this week. Gosh, I feel his stress with it EVERY week....I'm always looking at how long's left on the clip and worrying in case he runs out of time before people csn say their goodbyes. I wish I didn't but I do. I blame John!! He's so transparently worried. I bet he had nightmares about it!!

Hallo, I have some time, and I haven’t watched WML in ages, so here I am. …Goodness, John is twisty in this first one. Mr. Dodge was originally from Oregon, and as John eventually got to, was (while at Oregon State) in the Olympics as a runner in 1924 (and the Pan Am Games, too). He had a few US and Canadian championships in the 20s. He and a compatriot started a class ring business and it expanded and changed and mutated into the Oscar (and Emmy) proposition. In the 40s and 50s it was 4 different companies in Illinois, California, NJ, and Florida. In the 40s, he mostly lived in Los Angeles and did things like the Chamber of Commerce, but moved to Miami in 1950. He got married in 1934 to someone named Ada, and had 2 kids. He died in 1985 in Key Biscayne. (There’s not much evidence of what he did after about 1960, but that’s OK, he was basically A Successful Guy by then.) I'm not gonna go into McGuires, mother or daughters, because they're lookuppable.

Like I said before, the "Juggler" opening is my second-favorite of all the shows' openings. It would be used for 143 episodes, from this one, to the 2/7/65 episode. My FAVORITE of all the openings, the "mismatched" parts opening, debuted on the 2/14/65 episode. It would also be used on the Syndicated revival from 1968 to 1974. For the most part, I think WML's openings and graphics got better and better as the series progressed, save for the Syndie versions' final season.

This show was recorded in April. The Kentucky Derby usually is the First Saturday in May. Adding the question, the Derby is not run until May and this was recorded in April before the Derby that year.

That man manufacturers those Oscar statuettes, he isn't a miner.I know the concept of this show, I saw it as a child when new.I just always thought the host should allow the guests to answer the questions they are asked by the panel, and not interfere so much.Sometimes he misleads by twisting the info.That man who makes the Oscars seemed really nice.

I found it an interesting glimpse of "how do someone stand as a panelist?" Arlene and Merv Griffin had given after the Mrs. McGuire. She explained: they had trained Merv Griffin backstage in the panel work and she was supposed to be a Minister, Merv Griffin protests in a quite funny way, that Arlene said, no training (in higher sense as always used) is needed. Isn't this nice, to train the guest panelist before the show. They where really nice people, as we all know.

Oh yes, all the guest panelists were given the opportunity to practice the game before the actual show, as well as a printed guide which gave general suggestions on how to approach the game and lists of useful questions. Producer Gil Fates wrote in his book about certain celebrities (whom he didn't name) who decided to skip the briefings and didn't even read the printed guides, and ended up making fools of themselves on the panel. I suspect Errol Flynn was one of these folks.

There is no rational reason why it should not be possible to buy an Oscar at a store or at auction, the same as any other privately owned product that someone might want to sell. But the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences does not permit it. Oscar winners are required to pledge that they will not sell the Oscar. A prospective seller must offer it back to the Academy for $1. This dates to 1950. In 1992. Harold Russell tried to sell one of his Oscars. Russell is the only winner of two Oscars for the same performance. In 1946, having lost his arms below his elbows, he won a Special Oscar for his performance in "The Best Years of Our Lives." This was a remarkable performance for a nonprofessional actor, although he had made some Army films and the Academy wanted for various reasons to make sure his work was recognized with a special award. No one contemplated that he would actually win a competitive Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, but he did, and probably at least in part for the same reasons why he received the special Oscar. Needless to say, there were not many additional roles for which he was suited, and by the time he was an old man, he said his wife was sick and sold his competitive Oscar. The Academy was livid and publicly disputed the reason for Russell's desire to sell, as if they should be able to stop it for whatever reason a recipient might want to sell. Although controversial, because Russell won his Oscars in 1946, he had never agreed not to sell them and the Academy was without recourse.

My name is Dorothy, which was a popular name in the generation BEFORE mine. These folks were my parents generation, and I just love the way they pronounce my name. It almost makes me like my name! The (American) English language sounded SO MUCH better then.

Hello, You had made a comment asking where all the elegant and brilliant women are on TV? Well, the answer is that they really are there. But they don't all have wear this particular apparel to be so. It's an enlightened society since this time, and continues to get better, that women don't have to act a particular way, or dress a particular way to be considered elegant. I think in fact they're there - This program's image of women on the other hand is a time that I believe demonstrates a barrier for the advancement of society and women, due to images of how society believes they "should" act, that is, particular superficial haircuts, dresses, and cosmetics.

@BalloonSage

Jaydoggy531 wow, when I said "elegant" I was talking about their level of class and poise and many different personality traits that had nothing to do with their physical aesthetic. You assumed that I was talking about their makeup and hair and outfits when I was talking about them as PEOPLE, and you seem to be focused only on the superficial aspects of women and define them by that, at least in this post to me. Is my post a bit hyperbolic? Sure. There are so many wonderful female actors and personalities but my comment clearly highlights that society had a higher standard for women in the past than today. Expecting less does not equate to respecting more. But it seems counterintuitive to me to have a negative view of these women and act like they had no freedom or will of their own, as if they didn't even have autonomy and were just herded in line like sheep. Would you mind telling me about the type of women you look up to and respect? I assure you I am genuinely interested in what you have to say.

@Jaydoggy531

I would say even in these same senses of mannerism and phrases they use, it demonstrates a society as a whole still more focused on superficial rather than true human interaction (and I believe that rings true today, though in very different realms). If it comes to their perfect diction - this is the result of primitive microphones which required perfect diction to be heard clearly. The term "elegant" tends to have a visual/audio (superficial at its core) connotation, which is why I drew the conclusion I did at first and I apologize if I misunderstood. When you mentioned the women in particular - one also wonders why you ask this question only of the women and not the men? After all, I feel the men in this clip could also be considered elegant at a superficial level, and men in the media today can also be rather brash and bold, as can any person for that matter... it tends to be what teams of producers hope will bring in ratings. As for brilliant and who I look up to: I often look to any person in general who seeks to actively make the world a better place or set an example for others on how to be a good person to other people. It may be a cliche answer, but I think there are more out there even in the media than you may realize. It's easy to look back at any era and observe it with fondness, to the point of making the era seem quixotic though it's not the case.

You know what would’ve been a great trick? Let’s say, on April 1, they have the contestants are the McGuire sisters, but they answer questions as if they were the Andrews Sisters. Imagine the confusion on the panelists after they remove the blindfold.🤣

I just watched that picture Sugar time about Phyllis and Sam Giancana and the FBI had a tape of them in a hotel room lol and it was loud. Hahahaha

Wow! The Oscars were late in the year back then!

At 16:52, Daly lets the panel know that Rev. McGuire is the mother of the 3 McGuire Sisters. Would have been more interesting and challenging with the mystery guests if he had refrained.

How the heck was John able to do his usual intro for "mystery guest" with a straight face and without cracking up, after that whole mom thing.... I mean, I know he *always* did it with a straight face, but this time would seem to have been impossible.

I find this animated intro is very amusing: old animated guy in new jobs sort of thing. I am old enough to remember it in first run. I find that 1960s comedy font very irritating, though -- hard to read when there is a lot of it in small points. My favorite WML font was the sans serif one in 1957 - 1962. I will admit that I don't like the music much -- the bongos and flutes I think are supposed to make it all seem-- here goes my 1960s slang -- mod, beat generation, and hip.
