He was too intellectual.. should have said greedy for glutton

He's very intelligent. Well read it seems.

You could say the same about Peter Lawford. My god, that's the prettiest man I have ever seen.

The epitome of feminine pulchritude she was.

I didn't cheer for her, she didn't give good clues or guessed weirdly. For instance the clue was 'shorthand' Barbara gave it as 'Greg', what? I felt bad for her partners.

@@jennross6466 Well, I found the spot where she says that, 11:56, then looked it up and found a Wikipedia article titled "Gregg shorthand": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregg_shorthand It's a form of shorthand invented by John Robert Gregg in 1888. Maybe back in the 60s, before computers became so commonplace, shorthand and shorthand training were much more common and people were educated on its different forms. If you were the first to try to give a clue, would you be able to come up with anything better? Nothing comes readily to mind for me and how in one word could you suggest it? Oh. She could have said "stenography". That might have been better. She did use her hand to imply writing. Honestly, it's a bias toward Barbara Eden, not how well she plays. I find her very lovable. And, if you look up her life story, you may find it so heartbreaking that seeing her happy like this before any of that stuff happened makes you a little extra sad and happy for her. I think she's a good person with an exceptionally good heart. She was pregnant with her first and only child during the first season of I Dream of Jeannie. Her and her husband had been trying for years and she assumed she wouldn't be able to play the role, but she was irreplacable and they hid it by filming above her stomach. After I Dream of Jeannie, she got pregnant again and since her husband's career hadn't taken off like hers, she worked again, only this time she was travelling around. Her son got bitter that he didn't get to see his mom, something I blame the father for, then she miscarried, though back then, they made you carry it to term, so she probably got a lot of keenly unwanted but well-intentioned attention from strangers asking about the baby and the due date. Apparently, the miscarriage caused a rift between her and her husband that ended in divorce ~ again, I blame the husband for letting her work then possibly blaming her when she miscarries. And I guess her only child wanted to stay with Dad instead of her. Well, starting with marijuana, little Matthew began doing drugs at maybe 12 because a neighbour was growing it in their yard. It wasn't until 19, when Eden found he wasn't enrolled in college anymore, that he was found to have started doing serious drugs, only his parents couldn't do anything to stop him because he was an adult. Imagine Barbara Eden, this same happy person playing Password, trying not to enable her son's drug habit by helping him materialistically while not being able to stand not knowing where he is because she's got such a good heart. He died of a drug overdose two months before his 36th birthday, in 2001. I guess he'd been doing well for two years and some newer version of heroin made him OD at the wheel of his car. Here's a clip of her after her son died: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNqqfpyIzdXQdYE.html As you can imagine, it makes me angry with Charles Gibson to see how he made her cry. But Connie Chung's interview of her on 20/20 makes me a lot angrier: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g5aTjdGHuN2ao2w.html It's just.... It makes me happy... and sad... to see her so happy... and still seemingly so innocent... and grateful for what she has.

@@jennross6466 Also... Peter Lawford's clue is literally "Gregg's..." and his partner got it just fine.

@@timothyjholloway . I really don't care if she's good at this game, she's still my favorite blonde of all time.

@@timothyjholloway I do seem to recall that, in my teachings or hearing it. I turned 4 the day before this episode. Maybe that is why it is vague. I do remember when I was 4, but I was just learning to read and this would have been an audio memory. I am sure my mother was watching this back then.

Oh, I know. And Peter was such a terribly addicted person which I will judge him on. It just goes with "Life". I like your name, "Dina".

I didn't know this . Just looked it up ,a good looking guy that had a mother that probably loved him so much . Ashame ,what a waste. Some people don't know how good they had it.

It was a comforting voice.

@@sheristewart3940 I saw episodes were he had a "giggle" in his voice. I didn't like that. I think the producer heard this. It was short lived. I can't remember the season or what year. This is a serious show. When it was in B&W, there was no inflection in the voice of the "Clue Giver". Yes, I am sure he has a name, but I don't recall it. I suppose I could Google It. Google is Evil. Just ask Louis Rossmann.

@@jlucasound Louis Rossmann is ENTERTAINING the KZfaq audience with his rants.

I remember when he said STOCKINGS and gave a little orgasmic groan at the end of it.

@@ChrisHansonCanada oh, really!? Which episode was that?

Given the Chance; He Might (even) Have Gotten Liquor Quicker..

Michelle Post Maybe the braid was a hairpiece?

@@maryktrnka It was she used it on personal appearances 40 years later.

I watched here on KZfaq in The Feminist and The Fuzz.

I had a friend who used to go to the same beauty parlor as Barbara Eden and she said that she was always so nice and outgoing...

@@randysills4418 She seems to have a winning personality, no doubt contributing to her long life. Attitude is important.

(As of the Posting of this), the Genie of which You refer to in the past tense is still Alive ..😐😌😐 😉

@@drumbum3.142 Sorry. I'm glad to know she's still with us

Similar looks.

I know what you mean. He was so good. He also made some great movies and in his own right was a very good, talented actor.

M. M. I so agree!!!!

M. M. I so agree!!!!

Tom Jones agree

I'll always remember Peter Lawford in the Longest Day.

She was such a good 🌟 player too. They had to select carefully to play against Peter Lawford

people sometimes did beat Peter in games in a row.

True.

Gregg's shorthand; ot was offered to non-college prep students [business/secretarial] back in the 1960s. I took personal typing and notehand in h.s., as I was taking everry available college prep course, because I knew I'd have to type my own papers and take mountains of notes in lecture classes. I retained the tping skills all these decases but lost the notehand soon after university as there were recorders and transcription machines.

Funny thing was, I had a typing class teacher who always talked about "Gregg says this" and "Gregg says that". I had no idea what she was talking about(my name is Greg, that got my attention). Not until later did I find out about Gregg shorthand.

@@safepethaven interesting/I hear you, SPH! The wild, wild thing is that I'm using technology which basically trumps that, I guess ... (I'm using speech-to-text technology to answer your comment :-)

Just imagine if Eden still looked like that today.

Lawford should have said "Your . . . . . name . . . . ." And then "Rabbit" if that didn't work.

I caught that, too. That would have been a major controversy these days!

well, we've been hearing Allan talk about his little man being stuck on every episode. That's not good. (probably should switch to boxers)

I was thinking, greedy.

I was born on this day! and, i wish more women were like Barbara Eden today.

THAT is the FIRST thing I thought too!! It is NOT a form of the word or whatever. Like u said they are TWO completely separate words!!

Scrub includes the word rub, and in this version of Password, it was against the rules to use any word that includes the password, or any word within the password.

dem's da rules, pops

they toss a coin. Heads, it's good, tails, it's bad.

Same here . Too bad he became an addict , was this show after his divorce to JFK's sister?

If it ever got made, it may have been the tribute to JFK called "Years of Lightning, Day of Drums."

TrojanJustin leave the dead alone!

That was funny, as well as historically interesting. It must be a very early example of the word being used ian that way on mainstream national TV.

Not good, it could lead first to virus or pandemic. But whooping was pretty good!

It hadn't been invented then

But rub is in the word scrub. That is why it was disallowed...

Jeannie and Mary Ann!

Those were the rules of the game. You have to say the exact word. If you say a form of it, you get one chance to say it correctly.

People followed the rules back then, unlike today.

Plus Dr.Reason A Goodwin from the World Book Encyclopeadia would have buzzed in and made a fool of Alan Ludden,so there...

There was a Dominican diplomat/race car driver/soldier by the name of "Rubirosa" who attracted many women and controversy in the mid 60's

@@chuckrawlings9518 ohh, thank you

rub is contained in scrub. That's the reason for the buzz

No rhymes

The real Lee Harvey Oswald and other primates like him reigned back then. Unfortunately, they were on the rise as we can see now. One of them even became president for a term.

She’s excellent.
