  • It sounds like Bennett is saying to Dorothy, at 6:05. "Your wasting time, get out"(I could be mistaken) buts its funny how she sorta intentionally procrastinates to piss him off.

  • Arlene was fantastic at this show, she really was.

  • One of my very fav epis for obvious reasons.

  • Arlene's Bull comment was one of her best.

  • This is the most beautiful Dorothy looked in her 15 years on this show. She looks absolutely gorgeous here, love her hair.

  • Nice couple Arlene and Martin. Very classy too. Too bad their son Peter is a left wing nut with long gray hair and very liberal. Must be a product of the hippie culture.

  • @calihartley2010 I know. I find it just a little sad. Arlene was always perfectly dressed and coiffed. Wonder what she'd think. Sometimes kids of the well-known just have a hard time...but who knows.

  • @calalilygirl Yes and he also did not believe in GOD. Maybe his parents were too busy with their work to teach him about God and to be classy. Sometimes even nice kids, once they go to college get involved with the bad sort. It is just how one wants to be in life that makes a person the way he/she is. 

  • @calihartley2010 Oh please, that's not true. He's a homosexual theorist.Maybe the fact that you're a prejudiced, right-wing nut is why you felt the need to say such things.

  • @ilovetati91 I say what needs to be said. He has a son, so I guess he is not gay. Please keep your bong aside and think clearly. Stupid libtard.

  • @calihartley2010 I'm an independent Christian, I just do not believe in prejudice....and judgements do not "need to be said." Stereotyping is not thinking deeply, sir. See how when I purposely said the same back to you how you responded?

  • @ilovetati91 wow independent Christians means a liberal only in name Christian. That says it all. Goodbye.

  • OMG.. its a TV show.. quit living through it!!

  • I used to really like Bennett Cirf in these vids,but in this one he pissed me off and I don't even like Dorothy.The vid was really funny though!!Arlene is great!

  • @rocketspeedy why don't you like Dorothy?

  • I think Bennett said get on with it because I listened to his oral history things on here and he said that Dorothy used to drag out questions in order to get more air time. He said she always did that and it always drove everyone else crazy.

  • @Kate8790 bennett is full of crap. when dorothy and john were exchanging puns you could see bennett look irated like she stoled his puns. on his oral history clips he admitted he was a ham so he wanted his time on the air. I bet if the air time was broken over the history of the show he had as much time as dorothy. he could ramble with the best of them to get his airtime.

  • @doc1917 Yes I saw the oral history by Bennett Cerf and he completely badgers Dorothy to death. This was in 1968 3 years after she died. So she was not alive to defend herself. He says that John Daly never forgave her for telling the press something about John. If you see the clip after her death you can see that John is upset. Also in 1961 when she comes back as a mystery guest he was genuinely telling her to get better and how nice that she was back. Bennett if full of crap sometimes.

  • These we good old days where people acted decently, kids did not take guns to school, and women dressed nicely.

  • @jvolstad I agree, if only these standard could be applied in today's world.

  • At 4:06 doesn't Daly completely gives away that the animal in question is a cow. Up to that point, the panel only knew that it was some type of beef.

  • @hankaaron1961 martin got the fact it was a cow,bull or steer by the 2 minute mark

  • Great episode all around.

  • Does anyone know what other occupations where on this episode and who the mystery guest was?

  • "probably wouldn't interest anybody but a bull" :-)

    Great episode!

  • Does Bennett say something to Dorothy at around 6:08?

  • @mcmrfklaw Yes he says Get on with it to Dorothy. Very rude of Bennett. I guess he did not know that thsi clip would be on the internet and that people can hear it if they have their volume up.

  • "story of our life"LMAO!

    arlene..simply the wittiest smartest personality ever :)

  • I loved it when John said "I quit! I don't know where the waist is on a cow!" That cracked me up.

  • I know dk can be a bit of a bword sometimes but Bennet was a jerk. it's all in good fun. this episode is hysterical!

  • @Kiwi0321 and why is DK a bword? She was just trying to play the game silly.

  • footwear for cows :)

  • Boy, I wish i'd lived back then!

  • @calalilygirl  Me too!

  • Arlene Francis must of been such a good judge of character! You could tell as soon as the contestant sat down that Arlene knew he had something to do with animals. She is the funniest one on the panel!

  • @JoanHolloway1931 Yes, she was so good at this!

  • @JoanHolloway1931 Yes, she DID know.

  • Arlene: ..."probably wouldn't interest anybody but a bull" -- probably the raciest comment ever uttered in all the original WML's 17 years LOL!

  • Arlene was hysterical--so smart and quick on the one-liners.

  • Yes, one of several, but that was way up there!

  • There's something that Bennett says before "get on with it". Can anybody hear it? It sounds something like "worse than the other two." I can't make it out, though.

  • yes, I believe bennett says something like "couldn't be worse than the other two, get on with it."

  • wow the look on her face when he says it, at around 6:08. Rhe body language between Dorothy and Bennett is extremely negative toward one another in this episode, and that comment just topped it off. Wow.

  • Hmm, just listened. It kind of sounds like he says, "You're acting worse than the other two, now get on with it."

  • Very fun and nice to see this couple of married people having a bit of fun on TV.

  • Good fun. Thanks very much.

  • OH, this clip is just amazing! So many funny things, from Arlene's misconception of cows, to the matrinomial banter and Dorothy and John's pun-off. Thanks so much for posting this!

  • If you like this clip, go to the GSN site and ask them to bring the show back!

  • Thanks so much this had me completely hysterical :)

  • This broadcast comes after the era of the gambit, so everything here is spontaneous. All of Arlene's witticisms, all those cow puns one after another during Dorothy's questions Arlene got them off to a great start -- figuring out early that he did something to animals and then with the funny lines. Me -- I would have asked some dull question like, "If in your mind's eye you draw a horizontal line through the middle of a cow, do you work above that line?" Yawn.

  • Why exactly would the production staff decide on a superimposed card that reads "Cow manicurist (trims hoofs )" when it would be more direct to write "Trims hoofs of cows"

    It would be darned interesting to know just how close any of the panelists ever got to a real cow, though they did do good work to get as close to the occupation as they did.

  • After the fiasco on "I've Got A Secret", I doubt that game show panelists wanted to get near cows ever again.

  • Because cow manicurist is amusing, and yet it's not entirely clear what it means.

  • Thank you SOO much! I've always wanted to see this clip in its entirety! :-)

  • You HAVE TO love Dorothy from 5:55 to 6:00.

  • I think so too. Is Bennett in the background saying "Get on with it" at 6:10? He wants more airtime. Ha..

  • Yes! He is! I had to listen to it twice. I couldn't believe it and found myself saying, "What a JERK!" I mean, he said it with such disgust and disrespect. And it was well known that he wasn't too very fond of DK. BTW, I think DK looks AMAZING in this episode :)

  • @wmlfan9 You do

  • I LOVED SEEING THIS CLIP!!! Thank you so much for posting! This was one of the best clips from WML, especially the Arlene portion! I loved it all!

  • Dorothy looks very pretty here.

  • @dialectgirl I think so too.

  • Once again, thank you SO much! :)
