Eva Gabor was really enjoying her time as a guest. :)

Omg Dorothy is the best part of this show. She’s soooooo good at this it’s amazing

John Daly is a delightful host.

Eva, gorgeous, charming had joy to share along with a marvelous sense of humor. No wonder she was captivating in GREEN ACRES.

I think Eva was the sweetest of the Gabors .....isn´t she???

RIP Eva Gabor. Stunning lady :-)

Loved Eva Gabor, she was beautiful and loved her Accent. Wish she would have had a more Hollywood career. She was 35 here

I always felt she was the prettiest of the sisters n had real natural charm n comedic talent! All evident here

Eva was a very beautiful woman. And talented.

Eva Gabor really was a great beauty.

I always thought that Eva was the loveliest, the most charming and simply the most delightfully likable of the Gabor's I was only slightly less than heartbroken when Green Acres was canceled. She was simply irresistibly appealing on that sweet show....

Eva is rocking the 'Marilyn' look! Thanks for posting.

Eva was many times over a better actress than her sister, who really couldn't act anyway. People who worked with Eva only had the nicest things to say about her, especially her co-star on "Green Acres", Eddie Albert. This was such a wonderful panel show. Thanks for bringing it to us!

Am octogenarian and Isolated. Thank God for this what's your line program. To keep my sanity

Eva was the most beautiful and kindest of the three Gabor sisters.

Arlene Francis is sharp. Her comment, "She's a very dangerous woman, you can't tell her no's from her yes's" Holds up right here, right now. Love her.

Watching these episodes makes me feel so happy and at ease thanks for uploading them!

What a classic show .. sheer class in the host, panel, guests and the celebrity guest.. everyone speaks their mind .. no filters no political correctness ..live audience .. what more could you ask for .. wish I could go back in time !

Arlene: "John's been peeking" :D

I wish the guest star wouldn't rush off without a 15 second interview.

The first guest seemed so serious and stiff when he came on, but as the game went on it appeared he had a fun sense of humor.

That sweet Betty Lehn at the end looked about 14 years old. What a wonderful experience for her! And watching this now in 2024 there’s at least a chance she is still with us. The thought warms my heart.

I love when he flips a couple cards

I watched these as a kid and they still make me laugh!

Love this show! It makes me realize what sweet, innocent times they were. At least, in my mind.

This is a couple of years before Eva was in Gigi with Louis Jourdan, which won the Oscar for best picture.

"John's been peeking." Lol... Arlene was quick with the quips, and they always got a laugh.

Now, nearly 70 years old and still entertaining and funny.

always my favorite Gabor

Nancy L Taylor aka Daisy Mae died at age 85 on June 23, 2015. "Mrs. Lewis was very devoted to her family and was seen as a true caregiver. She was a member of Shiloh United Methodist Church for over 40 years and loved her church and church family," reads part of her obituary. She was buried on June 29, 2015.

The crowds reaction to the finding out the second guest is a wrestler as well is pretty funny. Oh and hello Miss Bianca.

Bennett makes a reference to John not having run a mile under 4 minutes. The day before this program aired, at the British Commonwealth Games in Vancouver, Roger Bannister and John Landy of Australia were pitted against each other for the first time. At the time, they were the only two who had run the mile in under 4 minutes and Landy was the current world record holder. Although he didn't set a new world record in the process, Bannister ran his faster time ever in beating Landy in a race that was called "The Miracle Mile". When Roger Bannister was the first to accomplish a sub-4 minute mile in May 1954, he didn't do so in a major sports stadium. Rather it was at modest Iffley Road Stadium, the home facility for Oxford University in athletics (track and field) and association football (soccer). While Bannister was no longer a student at Oxford when he ran the historic race, he had been one in 1949 when he was elected President of the Oxford University Athletic Club and led the effort to replace the bumpy, uneven track with a state of he art (for its day) facility. It's highly doubtful that Bannister would have considered competing on that track in his quest for the record if it had not been upgraded. Because of my past association with Cornell University track and field, I was fortunate to actually walk on the very same track on which Bannister set the record at Oxford. I was there in 1974, two years before they upgraded the track to a synthetic surface. When I was there, it was still a dirt/cinder track: state of the art in 1954. The running track portion of the stadium has since been renamed for Bannister. Sir Roger Bannister, MD recently celebrated his 88th birthday in March 2017, but is suffering from Parkinson's Disease.

Having the two drastically different-looking professional wrestlers back-to-back was an absolutely brilliant decision! I wonder, is this the only time the producers have tried to pull off such a stunt to throw off the panel?

Eva.... such a cutie!!

I never laughed so much, Eva is such a likeable person 💖💯

Arlene is so sharp. When everybody else is off on a tangent she’s often the one that rolls it back in. Nobody ever said that his sport was done in the snow

The most lovely of the Gabors. She was totally delightful on Green Acres. That show was canceled at the height of its popularity as CBS was looking for shows which attracted a younger deomgraphic. I was, along with untold other fans of the show, bitterly disappointed.

Arlene got two prior guests from the wild guess, a trapeze artist and a football player, and she pretty much got this one.

I love the charisma of people back then

re. Arlene's unusual goodnight to Mrs Allen in the end, Steve Allen had gotten married only 8 days prior to this episode.

What a quality show. Very well done.

This has helped so much during the pandemic. It is 1/31/2021 and still goes on 😟

Mr. Daly was on the first show of green acres with her

I'm glad they eventually eliminated the practice of having the contestants walk down in front of the panel and have them try one free guess each. That seemed such a waste of valuable time given that it was only a half-hour show. I realize there were a few occasions when the occupation was correctly guessed, but overall it seemed pointless.

This many decades after Green Acres I still crush on her ! But not her cooking !❤❤

Loved Eva she was big friends with Merv Griffin and collected parasols. Doesn't that sound like something she would collect? She would look good with one.

After seeing Ms. Taylor, I realizes the fact that how big a role teeth have to play to make somebody looking beautiful. She was stunning with her mouth closed, but not quite so when she was speaking! May be the reason she was nervous (as Daly mentioned) when she came in!

12:52 "There would be very little satisfaction in doing it alone." I love the audience's reaction to the unintentional innuendo behind that statement, haha!

I started learning Hungarian because I loved Eva so much. 😃

The Gabor sisters were all lovely, mom too.

Smart, beautiful, humble and sweet-- Cerf's got it all.

While we never got the chance to meet so many interesting people as the panel did, at least we saw the often funny reactions of the mystery guests. None of these panelists probably ever did, so they missed quite an important part of the show.

Mrs. Gabor was such and adorable lady. What a sad end she had.

Eva was gorgeous to the last day!

She was absolutely stunning!😍

At 8:35, Steve guessed pretzel bender for the second wrestler. Then at 21:42, Arlene guessed that Miss Leon made pretzels. John declared an _interesting answer_ . Five previous _interesting answers_ that were not _absolutely accurate_ occurred as follows: 1. On 16 Feb 1950, Arlene guessed _athlete_ instead of _wrestler_ . 2. On 2 Mar 1950, Richard Hoffman guessed _detective instead of _house detective_ . 3. On 15 Oct 1950, Arlene guessed _department store buyer_ instead of _cosmetics buyer_ . 4. On 6 Sep 1953, Steve guessed _racetrack employee_ instead of _racetrack parimutuel clerk_ 5. On 11 Apr 1954, Steve guessed _softball player_ instead of _baseball player_ .

Eva was absolutely beautiful! Never saw her prior to GA. Wow!

Pretty pretty Eva; a softer, more innocent version of her sister

Great show!

Re : AIWboojum 7 months ago To be fair, they all did that to some extent. More to the point, one of the reasons I've been watching these videos is because everyone is so wonderfully classy--imagine a Price Is Right contestant wearing an evening gown--and it's really not classy to criticize and insult a woman who has been dead for fifty years for something that in the end isn't really a big deal. Dorothy Kilgallen was witty and sharp on this program, I think she brought something very valuable to the panel and the show suffered when she passed.

Anybody else ever find themselves wondering if the panel didn't sometimes get clues prior to a guest coming out.......seriously, that Dorothy Kilgallen was one spooky chick, the way she would suddenly zero in on the guest's occupation with just a few simple questions. I know she was incredibly smart, and had that innate reporter's 'nose' (which in the end, may have actually gotten her killed) for getting to the bottom of things......but she was simply AMAZING on this show !!!

There is my bianca ;-)! Eva Gabor is soo beautiful O.o

I think the is my favorite episode.

She guessed pretzel maker before the guest said a word.

Everyone talking about Eva and Wrestlers , but no one even mentions that cute Remington - it's exactly like the one my Daddy gave me , back when my facial hair emerged - and he added a few lines about birds and bees as well - so sweet

So they passed up chatting with Eva to talk pretzels? That’s not very nice, daaahrling.

I love elegance and refinement of people back then. There was something about the way you presented yourself that is severely lacking today. Eva was beautiful. You should see " The Last Time I Saw Paris " staring Elizabeth Taylor and Eva Gabor.

Though they may not be as entertaining as Groucho Marx was a guest panelist there's no doubt in my mind the two best guest players were Steve Allen and Tony Randall.

I was fortunate enough to meet Miss Gabor as well as Mr. Eddie Albert on the set of Green Acres back in the 70's. Both she and Mr. Albert were kind and charming. Because of the warmth they showed me, it is a treasured memory.On the other hand I also got to be on the set of Beverly Hillbillies total different atmosphere.

Comments left on prior version of this video: Johan Bengtsson 10 months ago Eva Gabor was called "The Gabor with talent". I have never seen "Green Acres" but I remember her voice as Duchess in Disney's "The Aristocats". What's My Line? 10 months ago John Daly was actually in the premiere episode of "Green Acres"! Johan Bengtsson 10 months ago +What's My Line? He was? As a charachter or as himself? What's My Line? 10 months ago +Johan Bengtsson He was playing himself, hosting a news show that framed the episode. I only know of it thanks to a post in the Facebook group months ago-- there's a clip of it on KZfaq. I tried to find it for you, but no luck, sorry! Dalton Belflower 9 months ago Eva was great in Green Acres. Zsa Zsa was actually offered the part of glamour gal Lisa Douglas, but turned it down, recommending her younger sister. Dalton Belflower 9 months ago I don't know if Eva was the "most talented" Gabor, but she was very talented. But, I guess, since Zsa Zsa was known more for her quirks and private life, Eva did make a bigger name for herself as an actress. Eva goes down in TV history for starring on one of the most recognizable and longest off-network running sitcoms ever: Green Acres. However, Zsa Zsa defines the word "celebrity", while Eva was "the actress" I suppose. What about Magda, the older sister? There is so little information on her out there. Does anyone on here have some reliable and good info on her please. Comment if you do please. It'd be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Deep Purple 9 months ago she also did the voice of Ms. Bianca in Disney's "The Rescuers" Kirk Barkley 5 months ago +Dalton Belflower well, she was certainly gorgeous at any rate! hairyscotman 4 months ago +Johan Bengtsson I highly recommend you watch Green Acres....Eva was perfect in the role....lovely, clever, funny....

Chelle Marr 1 month ago +hairyscotman Her wardrobe for Green Acres is amazing. So many beautiful clothes ! Jeff Vaughn 1 year ago For some reason this isn't letting me reply directly to LisaDawnn's comment so I hope she sees this. Mystery guests were paid $500 per appearance and guest panelists were paid $750. When Bennett Cerf first started he said he was paid $300 per week, but by the end of the show he said they were being paid "scandalous amounts" (no idea how much that was). BlueShoeLover 1 year ago My very first full-time job, in 2001, paid me $300 per week! Do you have some sort of comparison rates for 1950s money v 2000s money? Jeff Vaughn 1 year ago +BlueShoeLover I don't know if this is accurate or not, but I found on line that $1 in 1950 = $8.33 today so that said, $300 in 1950 would be worth around $2500 today and conversely the $300 week you made in the 2000's would be the same as $36 in 1950. BlueShoeLover 1 year ago +Jeff Vaughn Thanks! MadelineTopper 1 year ago 13:08 How was that even up for debate? Hide replies Rikard Peterson 1 year ago I assume that strength isn't as important as technique. MadelineTopper 1 year ago That's true. David Evans 1 year ago I wrestled in Junior High. I weighed 125 pounds and was not strong in the bulky sense of the word. But I was very wiry and quick and knew how to use my weight, how to lure my opponent into thinking he "had" only to wriggle out and pin him. I beat a lot of the stronger kids. It was impossible to pin me. That's how strength is not necessarily needed to win in wrestling. fishhead06 4 months ago It's so telling that they see a Canadian involved in athletics and all they can think about is the snow and the outdoors. Americans! lol MattTheSaiyan 4 months ago After watching this, I'm in the mood for some pretzels. Deep Purple Shared on Google+ · 3 months ago I remember her as the voice of Bianca in Disney's The Rescuers Jimmy Flanagan 7 months ago I am reading a book about Dorothy Kilgallen.

She was a women who can truly be called "way before her time" What's My Line? 7 months ago My respect for her grew leaps and bounds after reading the bio, yes. Dalton Belflower 9 months ago The "glamorous grandmother" Bennett Cerf was speaking of was Marlene Dietrich, whose daughter had not too long ago had a child, making her what the press dubbed "The Most Glamorous Grandmother". Marlene was German, the Gabors were Hungarian, just some trivia. Zac M. 9 months ago If Dorothy was really "working on Arlene's theory" then why doesn't she just get to it. Camera hog indeed.

She had the Marilyn Monroe look back then.What a beauty Dalton Belflower 9 months ago (edited) Yes she did because Marilyn was "The Look" then. And, in some cases, her look is still copied today. #MonroeFan Monroe is the ultimate definition or image of a LEGEND and ICON. soulierinvestments 1 year ago RE: the last contestant. Over the years, this is only the first of a couple of instances where a panelist identified a person associated with pretzels right off the bat. Ten years later the president of Quinlin Pretzels of Pennsylvania went before the panel under her own name and got picked off by Robert Q Lewis -- who apparently knew a thing or two about Pretzels.

Second pretzel bender on WML.

Arlene: "You're a dangerous girl--you can't tell your "yes's" from your "no's".

John rubs his hands together at 09:05 like ooooo boyyy, we've got em now! 😄 So adorable, what a charmer he was. 😇

This episode seems a bit sneaky, lol. ❤ Love it.

Wonderful series! People were so polite in those days!

12:51 "There would be very little satisfaction in doing it alone."

Eddie Albert was one lucky guy!

it's kind of sad how the handwriting nowadays has changed. if i wrote eva gabors name on that board they probably wouldn't understand it and think it's not artistic

"Green Acres is the place to be...give me Park Avenue!"

Arlene’s got the best laugh.

Dorothy the Dagger!

the GABORS....just LOVELY....

Did Bennett not realize where the camera was during the intros? He was the only one looking away

I always thought Eva was the prettiest of the Gabor sister's.

ZOLD, Stephen Passed away peacefully. Heaven has called him home on October 13, 2011 at the age of 82 years. Loving and devoted Husband of Joanne (nee Marcy). Loving Father of the late David Zold (2007), Joanne Vucenovic (Nick), Stephanie Stone (Doug), and Edward Zold (Andrea).

Eva Gabor was so beautiful when she was young.

Nancy Taylor wrestled as Daisy Mae. She died June 23, 2015

Arlene has the best laugh!

The Seven Year Itch came out the following year-1955, Eva Gabor’s dress is so similar to Marilyn Monroe’s.

notice how the men would rise when they greeted the women. now men wear pajama bottoms and shower shoes in public. and hats in restaurants.

Daly had fun with Eva.

Dang! What a knock out!

Love johns conferences 😆

I love the bro-mance between Cerf and Daly.

Always known as ‘The Good Gabor.’

Too bad Eva Gabor rushed off so soon and then John has a nice talk with the pretzel bender. What a beautiful woman she is. My favorite Gabor.

My God she was beautiful!

I had to look up Eva Gabor's height because she looked so petite when she shook hands with Bennett Cerf and Steve Allen, both of whom were tall. She was 5 ft. 2-1/2 in. tall (158.75 cm), 12-1/2 inches (31.75 cm) shorter than Steve Allen and 10-1/2 inches (26.67 cm) shorter than Bennett Cerf. So a rather petite woman, I'd say. Based on the way she answered the questions, I think she was pretty smart, too, and obviously had a good command of English. I think she knew how to use her Hungarian accent to convey a certain personality on which she capitalized. By all accounts, Eva Gabor was a very nice woman who was very well-liked by the people she worked with as an actress. I think she had a good sense of humor -- I think that was required when she played "Lisa Douglas" on "Green Acres" for six seasons.

pretzel girl : the only reason Daly didn't say yes to Arlene's guess is because they had too much time remaining.

Amazing that Arlene more or less guessed Betty Lehn's job before the first question was asked!
