  • @spindalis79 or tuxes for the gents!

  • This one is old. I guess it's before they had money for a chalkboard for their guest to sign in. :)

  • Yeah, guess he'd been married, eh? :-)

  • @moonlightorchid99 .. I guess the joke was that by this time Mr. Shaw had already been married seven times.

  • @moonlightorchid99 That's what gave him away!

  • HA! I adore the abrupt burst of mocking laughter when asked whether he was married

  • "May I ask you to say, 'Mary had a little lamb'?" (1:47) -- Dorothy asks the same question of mystery guest Brian Epstein in 1965!

  • @guerilla1977 The mystery guests didn't think to disguise their voices in the earliest telecasts. Very soon after this broadcast, some mystery guest did disguise her voice: the audience laughed, and the tradition started.

    Note that it did not occur to Daly or Gil Fates in the beginning that Daly should not provide the mystery guest's gender. Consider all the funny WML mystery guest spots where the panel gets confused on gender that would not have happened if Daly had continued that.

  • How fun to these this EARLY episode. I wonder why he didn't try to disguise his voice!

  • Thanks for digging up this landmark.

    By this third WML broadcast (1950), WML had quickly developed into what we remember. The first two broadcasts featured 3 men -- poet, writer, teacher Louis Untemeyer, Park Avenue psychiatrist Richard Hoffman, New Jersey politician Harold Hoffmann, plus Dorothy (broadcast 1), and Arlene (broadcast 2). This is the first broadcast to feature together Daly, Kilgallen, Untemeyer, and Francis. Hal Block joined the panel on broadcast 4.
