It was banned because of the comment the moderator made after he grabbed the mike from Brett Somers. "...make you feel like home." Brett was married to Jack Klugman and they were going through a divorce at the time. The implication was that Klugman was physically abusive which was not true. The moderator of the show was drunk but he was often drunk.
Brett is or was a real card.... where's his long mic?...Dawson needs to practice his spelling. Banned espisode?.... just another Youtube clown me thinks..
@dj942001 Exactly! And it didn't help when @1:01 Gene balls up a fist at Brett. Then @1:29 look at the woman contestant, the look in her face says it all.
The Legendary Karen Lesko "nipple slip" was in, I believe, 1974. It was never aired. Does anyone know whether the episode is viewable via YouTube... or anywhere else?
Ann Elder, I don't remember her in anything while growing up but she is (was) hot!!

Brett was at the bottom when she first started. Within a few weeks, she moved to the top.

Could you explain why this has "(Banned Episode)" in the title? ...Or will the reason become evident as the episode progresses?
