Dorothy gets harsh comments from a number of viewers. I'm going to state here and now: Dorothy is my favorite panelist (Arlene is right up there with her). Dorothy is a great listener, a keen thinker, she's competitive, she can laugh at herself, she has fun with her role, she has a beautiful smile, and she's a great asset to the panel. Many of her excellent questions help the other panelists correctly guess the occupations of the contestants. P.S. It blows me away when it's suggested that Dorothy cheats at times. That's so ridiculous.

Some Ben Gazzara notes: This is the fourth and final time that Ben Gazzara appears on WHAT'S MY LINE? - and the only time that he appears as Mystery Guest. He was a guest panelist on 2 August 1959, on 27 September 1959, and on 28 February 1960. "The Young Doctors" was the only big-screen film which Ben Gazzara made in 1961. It was released in the U.S. (New York first) on 23 August 1961. He also played Davidde in a made-for-TV film, "Cry Vengeance!," which had aired on NBC on 18 April 1961. Others in the cast include Sal Mineo, Cal Bellini, Peter Falk, Sorrell Booke, and Jack Bittner. Franklin J. Schaffner directs; and the music is by David Amram. (The previous year (1960), he had played Lello in an Italian film, "The Passionate Thief" (original title: "Risate di gioia"), in which other cast principals included Anna Magnani and Toto (the Italian actor, not the dog - or the singer, for that matter) - and Fred Clark.) Ben Gazzara's last previous Broadway performances (as elicited during the Mystery Guest segment) were, indeed, in a non-musical play. In fact, they were in a flop: Michael V. Gazzo's "The Night Circus," in which Gazzara played Joy. The play ran from Monday, 2 December 1958 to Friday, 6 December 1958 at the John Golden Theatre - only 7 performances. Others in the cast included Al Lewis, Janice Rule, Arlene Golonka, Bartel La Rue, John Harkins, Albert Morgenstern, Patricia Roe, and Shepperd Strudwick. The production was directed by Frank Corsaro. You might also be interested in watching Ben Gazzara in the 1965 film "A Rage To Live," which is still up on KZfaq as of this comment.

On thing to note about "One Two Three" is that James Cagney so hated doing this picture - mainly working with Horst Bucholtz - that he quit acting and was only lured out of retirement in 1981 for a brief part in "Ragtime". He apparently came out of retirement only because his close friend Pat O'Brien was also doing the movie.

@@SueProv If you’re asking about Bucholtz, the answer seems to be that he was a method actor and forced a lot of retakes and wasted time. Cagney was very much of the “know your lines, and hit your mark” type actor. He didn’t need a lot of direction, or need to know what “his motivation in this scene” was.

Life imitates art Ben Gazzara was the original Brick in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, on Broadway. One of the greatest plays by one of the greatest playwrights in Broadway history. In that play, Brick appears on crutches, having broken his ankle by failing to clear the hurdles he faced, literally and metaphorically. A broken man. And here is Gazzara actually on crutches following an athletic injury.

Arlene is about to talk things over with the kids, and just before doing so, she calls out, "Conference!" :) Understated enough to not interrupt the flow of the scene, but certainly a WML reference.

Billy Wilder's "One Two Three " doesn't get the fame it deserves because it came after his super hits "Some Like it Hot" and "The Apartment." It was a great comedy, a funny concept, and Arlene got some memorably dry comedy lines. "Have you ever made love to communist?" asks the daughter of the president of Coca Cola?" No, Arlene says," but I once made out with a Stevenson Delegate." She says to her Coca Cola executive in Berlin husband, "Our marriage has gone flat, like stale beer." He replies without missing a beat, "Must you bring competitors into the conversation?" badda bing.

soulierinvestments Believe it or not, I liked "One Two Three" *more* than "Some It Like It Hot" or "The Apartment". I think I have a defective comedy gene-- I like "Some Like It Hot" well enough, but I don't see what's so earth shattering. As I understand it, we're all supposed to consider "Some It Like It Hot" the best comedy ever made, with the single most perfect final line in any comedy in history. Yeah. . . ok. "The Apartment" I never warmed up to at all. This is not a knock on Wilder, just on the reaction to those two films in particular, which I've never really understood. "Sunset Boulevard" is, for me, his clear masterpiece.

His disappointment at not being able to participate really shows.....

In fairness, how many times in a last-contestant segment has there been barely enough time for each contestant to ask one question before the contestant's "line" is revealed - and it seems rushed from the start? At least this time, the contestant's "line" was guessed fairly quickly and there was time for a little bit of conversation afterwards. Also, as Martin Gabel noted, he had been a panelist often enough (and had seen the show often enough) to know that sometimes the obvious is the correct answer. Even in a black-and-white kinescope, it comes across as pretty obvious that Mary Silchenstedt is quite tanned (sunburned, in fact, as John Daly notes) and quite physically fit ("robust physical health" - JD), so that guessing that she had held an outdoor occupation during the summer, quite possibly something to do with swimming, such as lifeguard. And so, for once, the final segment didn't seem rushed at all......There was even time for the usual round of "Good night"'s from contestant to contestant to (eventually) host. (PS: When I was watching this particular segment, once Miss Silchenstedt had written her name on the chalkboard, but before her city of residence and accent had been revealed, my first thought was that she was a foreigner who was visiting the U.S. Just looking at her on-screen, that thought certainly is plausible. But, upon further thought, WML? generally selected "final contestants" from those who lived reasonably close to New York City. Had she been a foreign-born visitor contestant, she would have been featured as either "first up" or "second up," but not "final.")

What's My Line had an affinity for employed boys in this period. The next year, the boy columnist Henry Makow appeared. Memorably so did young trapeze artist Ray Valentine and an 8 year old boy who did billiard stunts. They all appear in KZfaq. Arlene's mention of her 14 year old son with the interest in sports brings to mind her son Peter Gabel, for years a law professor / philosopher / university administrator. When he was 17 and very cute, he appeared on WML as a New York World's Fair Guide. AT one time or another, his three WML appearances (1964, 1967 -- as Harvard Lampoon editor, 1972 -- as mystery guest plugging leftist political organizations at U of California Berkley) were posted to KZfaq

It seems to me that Arlene and Bennett probably knew that the 1st contestant may have been a page boy since he lived so close to Washington DC. They at least gave him a chance to get through a few questions before being figured out. Then there is Dorothy who as Bennett has related was driven to guess the occupation. As a result this poor kid hardly got any airtime. If I am correct then I believe this was very selfish on her part.

i think it is wonderful that Dorothy played to win. The person facing the panel is called either a "contestant" or a "challenger". That implies that it is contest between the guest and the panel and that it the panel is being challenged. The panel is supposed to compete. This is 1961, just before Labor Day and the start of a new school year. I was just about to start 4th grade. In 1961, teachers weren't forbidden to use red ink because it was deemed too harsh. Gold stars had to be earned. Awards weren't given out merely because someone showed up. When we played ball among ourselves, we kept score, and while we might argue whether a ball was fair or foul and whether a runner was safe or out, at the end of the day no one on the losing team whined because they lost. Everyone played and the kid who was picked last didn't show ill effects of low self-esteem. One of our neighborhood kids had a withered arm from polio. He played. He was one of the gang. He went on to have a good career in administration for a major travel agency. Besides, Arlene, Bennett and many of the more regular guest panelists also played to win. Arlene griped far more often than Dorothy about getting a "no" and was more likely to get it reversed than Dorothy. But Dorothy is less likely to get a pass from many of those leaving comments on this channel. It's a matter of how each one is perceived.

@@loissimmons6558 I had just turned 1 year old. For better or worse, the school customs of your fourth grade class would feel a little dated by the time I made it to that stage in 1968. And yet everything you mentioned seemed like it was true for me and my age mates. It was only when we all became parents that our kids faced a whole new world of school and play. As for Dorothy... I liked her competitive nature. I didn't like her knack of dragging out her questioning though.

To the contrary, games are played to be won. Bad sportsmanship would be to pull punches and try to make the game closer. It is proper for each panelist to try their hardest

In an interview given a few years after the original show ended, Bennett said that there was an unwritten (I’m paraphrasing) rule that for a Mystery Guest they would allow all four panelists to ask one question, even if someone immediately knew who the MG was. He went on to say that Dorothy would break that rule. But Bennett himself was known to do the same thing on occasion. Anyway, apparently there was no such custom for a regular challenger.

You guys need to keep you negative responses to yourselves!! No, Dorothy shouldn't have a done that, and yes she does like to be right no matter who the "victim" is, but she is liked by pretty much every person who's ever WATCHED this show but in here defense, she only did what you (and any other person) would do in her place!!

John Daly does this often, he talks too much, unnecessarily speaking for guests who are doing just fine answering questions. Irritating. I'm surprised his producers didn't curtail this habitual behavior of his.

That's one of the things that irritates me; him speaking for everybody when they have a mouth of their own (and I'm sure even knows BETTER than John would). But even so, that doesn't irritate me NEARLY as much as when he flips over those STUPID cards for everyone!! (to me, there's no point in even playing the GAME when he does that cause he takes all the fun out of it)!

Kilgallenn took only three questions to guess a fourteen year old was a page boy for the Senate. Nonprofit? Yes. Work for the government? Yes. Are you a page boy? Yes. She most likely had inside information. 50 dollars must have been a lot of money for a teenager back then and it looks like he was cheated out of it.
