Didn't know about Junior ? You must be visiting from Mars

He looks like an exact cross between mom Nancy and Frankie

He was a good actor, he was on a couple of episodes of Adam-12.

Lighten up...PLEASE!

This was one of Genes first announcing assignments for Goodson Todman, he wasnt as polished nor was his style established then.( He was filling in for Jack ). He seemed to be creepyish whispering but he still did a decent job cutting his teeth announcing.

No shit, Sherlock

He fizzled.

@@jamesmcinnis208 I've been thinking about that, it does make perfect sense because his sister Nancy sizzled

Hi. I agree. It seems that he was active in live performances on stages and music venues. I never heard him on the radio.

how did people find out it was fake ? 😀

The kidnapping was not fake. It's just that the kidnappers were incompetent. Afterward, the defense tried to argue that 19-year-old Junior had orchestrated the kidnapping as a publicity stunt, but the kidnappers were all convicted.

I remember Jack Narz hosting BTC but not Gene Wood, must have been short lived

She was continually cheating but A.L. let her get away with it. No Gestures, but W O R D.

I'd like to think she would ... even the air around her was lovely.

Go for it, bring a cup of sugar

It is amazing how many times the lazy PW staff reused words. Seems the PW staff never opened up a Dictionary or a thesaurus. Watching many of these PW episodes from my childhood is good. PW started when I was in 1st grade, and when I got home from school, Mom would be watching PW as she was ironing and folding laundry. Thanks to the person(s) who put these on You Tube. It does get annoying watching the rampant cheating of Eydie Gorme and Carol Burnett and Robert Goulet, Angie Dickinson, Eva Gabor, Lawrence Harvey, and many other Celebs, but the words are still words. Solution to stop the Celebs cheating with gestures and mannerisms & charades: What A.L. and the show producers should have done to STOP the Celebs cheating was to NOT mention what TV show, Movie. Play or Sing-Song-Music place the Celeb was going to appear. Cut their free advertising! I've been watching You Tube quite a lot the last few months because the Over-the-Air TV antenna on the roof does not work well in bad weather. I have noticed several words being recycled. This episode it was "Sweepstakes" and "Prohibition". {[ BTW - Not once I have seen the word "Alcoholism" or "Sobriety" or "Repent", "Repentance", Holy, "Sacred", "Righteous", "Faithful", "Bible" on PW, makes one wonder about the PW staff habits and biases.]} Other words used multiple times have been --> Banana, Tomato, Cat, Dog, Salt, Whiskey, Coat, Yarn, Salad, and others. Hmmm? Did the produce stand / Grocery store near the PW studio office only sale tomatoes and bananas? No Turnips, or Corn or Beans or Artichokes, or Broccoli, Apples, Celery, Blueberries?

Edie!

The Mafia bosses who backed Daddy Sinatra probably got any $ that Daddy Sinatra had.

I saw Helen Hayes in Nyack

@@joeambrose3260 She lived there for many years. She had a second house on her property that my friend's parents lived in. I visited there many times.

@@loissimmons6558 Wow. Did you meet her and her son ?

@@joeambrose3260 Unfortunately no, I never met Helen Hayes or any of her family members. The story of my life: always one degree of separation from a celebrity.

Yes. I agree. In my opinion many people do not know just how great of a singer Frank Junior was. As we get older the people we grew up with get old and die...something we never thought would happen.

You wish people would stop dying, or just talented people? Would you prefer that they continued living in excruciating pain?

And l watched an episode of a program called Mystery At The Museum. They told of the kidnapping of Frank Jr. He was so intelligent and had a fantastic memory that he gave the FBI very important details about what he remembered about it. And they were able to capture the kidnappers. So interesting. 🦉

Well, the mortuaries never go out-of-business. It is a natural thing. In the County I live in each week at least 3 people are in the Obituary Pages of the Newspaper, but sadly, only about one baby is born every month or two. NOT good.

Umm... Probably not THE dullest...

That is rather irritating...

Carole........Do you think maybe she had recently gotten a "nose job"👃 so it was something new to her (????)

Not funny

JFJSJFW I GASPED AT THAT PART- I DIDNT EXPECT IT 😂

She was cheating almost the whole game when she had the PW. It is supposed to be "Password" NOT Pantomime.

@@gusloader123 Eydie is very expressive. She used her hands in the first game and Allen stop that. Later on Allen said she could use her hands in a lightening around but she didn't. Its just a game and not to be taken so seriously. She won most of the game and didn't cheat.

@@ellengutknecht3149 - Beg to differ. If she was playing charades at her house with the neighbors, for "fun" and the other people also used gestures, then OK Fine. But, this is a game show on TV where the contestants are trying to win $$$. most folks are not well-to-do so $250. or $500. would have paid the mortgage and the car payment that month and maybe bought some groceries. It should be Equal rules for all the players. Celeb Paul Anka did not cheat, and he helped his partners win $$.

e

@@gusloader123 Eydie was playing against Frank Sinatra Jr not Paul Anka.

No, that's not how it works. Totally acceptable.

Owens ?

The announcer was Jack Clark

Password was most often taped in New York at CBS-TV Studio 52 (later converted to the Studio 54 discothèque) and CBS-TV Studio 50 (the Ed Sullivan Theater) until the end of the daytime run in 1967. The original CBS version made annual trips to CBS Television City in LA during the 1960s, including once when the CBS New York studios were refurbished for color TV. During its run, Password was taped in all four of the studios at different times (31, 33, 41 and 43). As Mark Goodson opposed a permanent move of the show to Hollywood, Silverman canceled the series on September 15, 1967.
