As a child in the 60s/70s, and a military USAF brat to boot, our family were huge followers of the space program. A great mourning for Gus Grissom, Senior Pilot Ed White, and Pilot Roger B. Chaffee who died in a fire aboard Apollo during what should have been a routine nonflight(plugs out) testing of the Apollo 1 capsule on January 27th, 1967, before it's launch in February of that year. Still thanks to engineers like Hello; throughout the program; Mercury to Apollo, that we ultimately took humanity to the Moon and returned them safely home. Prayers to the future Lunar astronauts that our new crop of engineers and flight crews can do the same. 🌕👍

My father worked on many missiles through the Air Force, and his name appears on the Department of Defense monument honoring those involved in the Gemini program. It's located in Titusville, and he loved working on many of the missiles launched from Cape Canaveral. We loved watching the launches, which were fabulous. We still joke about the Russians pretending to be shrimpers, always out of season for shrimping. Too obvious!

Gil Fates in his book categorically branded Ms. Channing’s introduction [ 1:38 > 2:50 ] as the longest in the history of WML.. It’s a masterpiece of factual detail and balanced order. Bennett Cerf tends to get accused of long-winded introductions - Daly said as much on the final broadcast - but Bennett never did any WML intro on the magnitude of this oration.

@petemarshall8094 2 жыл бұрын

You can read his explanation in his autobiography “Before I Forget”. Standard stuff, but I’m sure it wouldn’t have done his career much good in Britain if it had been public knowledge. As a Brit with parents and grandparents bombed in the Blitz, and who did army service myself, I’ve often found Conscientious Objectors to be brave and dedicated medics, ambulance drivers, air raid wardens, etc - but Mason refused any non-military war work whatsoever. In a country fighting for survival, as his was in 1939 - this is beyond the pale. I skipped his appearance here, because I don’t feel good seeing him. I’ve heard that many US vets have the same reaction to Jane Fonda. But at least she apologized.

This is a baffling episode. Mysterious. Obviously, Carol Channing got called in as a last minute-replacement when Dorothy got ill. But why would the producer arrange a 2-man-2-woman panel boy-girl-girl-boy instead of the orthodox alternating pattern?? I suppose they might have just wanted to do something different. Well, it is. However - if Channing got her instructions mixed up, if she came to the studio assuming she was part of a 3-woman panel and would introduce Arlene, if she and husband-manager Charlie Lowe had cue cards ready for an introduction of Arlene and nothing prepared for an introduction of Bennett, then that might explain why this arrangement. Or maybe she insisted on introducing Arlene.

(He left her for a much younger woman). Well, I make no judgement here - it happens, however unpleasant it likely was at the time.

ROY STORNAWAY I grew up to her appearances on television and there are a few things about her that cannot be denied. She was a one on a kind, a singer, dancer, actress, and comedienne. She was a sweetheart who wouldn't hurt a fly, and once she assumed a role all eyes were fixated on her. If that is not to your liking, that is your prerogative. Growing up in the late '50s and the '60s I was mesmerized by her and even had a crush on here.

Two notable items about this episode: First, this was a rare episode where a man (Bennett Cerf) was in the first seat (this would be the norm in the syndicated version that began in 1968). Second, Carol Channing is wearing pants, the first known instance of a woman wearing pants on the show. The only other time a female panelist wore pants that is known was Phyllis Newman in December 1966 and one time in 1967 you had a female contest wear pants (which would be more common in the syndicated version that aired from 1968-'75).

Does anyone know if (at the beginning when introducing Miss Channing), Bennett mentions her dress as "The damndest costume ", .......would that have been considered quite risqué for the time? Would the producers have said something to him afterwords? Just seems that pre-1970, almost anything close to bad language was strictly taboo...

Was there a unmanned space craft that went to the moon about this time?

@justjohnney 9 жыл бұрын

Yes--Ranger 8. The Ranger probes took photos before crashing into the moon's surface that helped pick Apollo landing sites. The first six missions failed.

They also sent up the Orbiters (which, no surprise, orbited the moon) and the Surveyors (which soft-landed). This show may have predated their debuts, though. I know that the Rangers came first.

Carol Channing is a doll and I love her (God bless her she's still with us) but I'll bet that introduction of Arlene, which must have run a minute or more, I'll bet (one of the gals can time it for us) had Gil Fates saying more than "damndest" in the booth. And what's this business of two ladies sitting side by side? Golly.

I don't get the arrangement at all. Carol did her intros from cue cards. I suspect she came with an intro of Arlene ready and this is the result.

I'm 69 years old as I write this is 2023. For whatever reason, I have always considered Carol Channing to be disgusting and consider her to be disgusting now. I would never watch or listen to her voluntarily. Don't ask me to explain it more than that because I can't.

Not that anyone would know, but I'd be very interested in knowing how offensive or risqué it was for CBS, for a panelist (Bennett) to use the word "damnedest" live on Prime time TV in 1965.......

@WhatsMyLine 9 жыл бұрын

Completely not allowed, at least not unless as some sort of hugely special exception, say a big moment in a prestigious drama. "Damn" and "hell" weren't said on TV until "All in the Family" debuted in 1970. In Groucho's 1959 appearance on WML, he sings a song that has had the word "hell" in it. I think they got away with this because it was a live show, and hugely popular. But I'm sure the network Standards & Practices division had a ministroke every time something like this happened (which was rare).

Paul Duca Well, why do you think the Art Linkletter thing was called "Kids Say the DARNEDEST Things"? It depends on the context. If the word was being used in its religious sense it was acceptable. Not in the way Bennett used it here.
