@perlster following user: soulierinvestments: "Some mystery guests want to bamboozle the panel and others wanted the panel to recognize them." It was unbelievable hard to guess her (the panel required 3mins & 40sec.) despite her voice wasn't moduled. In case of Doris Day (What's My Line 1957.09.08) the panel required 1min & 2sec. despite Doris voice was mudulated.

While it's wonderful to see the beauty of Miss Sothern once again it would be even better if the sound were louder so I could hear what was being said, also.

@TheNoirNoir ~ She and the also under-rated Linda Darnell are the standout "wives".

If you enjoy Ann Sothern, check her out in Joseph L. Mankiewicz's 'A Letter to Three Wives.' So touching!

A VERY smart lady. She engineered her own T.V. series deal and kept control over the show when few women even imagined that. As she faced a weight gain from health issues she began dressing all in black in the show but very attractively. She could make any script better with her performance.

Under her real name, Harriet Lake, Ann Southern began her movie career in 1929, largely playing brassy showgilrs (such as "Mazie" in a series of films). She starred in two TV series: "Private Secretary" (1953-7) and "The Ann Southern Show" (1958-61). Illness during the latter caused her to put on weight around her hips. She tried to hide it by standing behind desks and sofas but finally gav e up working onscreen. In 1965-6, she was the voice of the car on the sitcom "My Mother The Car."
What a beautiful talented woman she was. I'm so glad to see this clip, thanks. They put a "u" in Sothern..oops!

On her nameplate her last name was misspelled as "Southern." That's kind of embarrassng for the producers of the show.
