@librarybob1958 Truly (still reminded they goofed on them in that South Park movie though but still). I was impressed this guy came from my hometown!

Charley Weaver was a product of his time. Such a character would not work today. Charley was a hoot on the original Hollywood Squares. Charley was at least 100 times more talented than any of his grandchildren --- David pr Patricia Arquette, etc. I agree it is sad Charley is almost forgotten today. He definitely was a one of a kind performer and entertainer.

Just wondering if anyone has uploaded any of the TV commercials Mr. Arquette did for Mrs. Butterworth's syrup, where he appears in drag as Mrs. Butterworth (with a mustache, no less).

@soulierinvestments Thanks. Re-reading it now, I feel pretty stupid. (Not for the first time.)

@TroyOi From 1950 to 1967, a new episode every week (876 total).

This landmark July 1959 broadcast: was the first episode videotaped at 8:30 p.m. Sunday before the live 10:30 p.m. broadcast. Eartha Kitt appeared as mystery guest on the live broadcast.
Videotapes made it possible for Daly to travel and never miss a broadcast and for Daly and the panel to take vacations and holidays and ditto. WML-Sunday NEVER used a rerun or a summer replacement -- a new episode every week (876 total), unless preempted by a special or Kennedy Assassination reports.

@soulierinvestments Could you clarify what you mean by "876 completely new episodes every week"?
The way he was messing with Arlene- no

Martin and Arlene are just so cute. They seemed to me very mismatched at first, but when you see them together you see how well they were together. "I'll be seeing you...in the Palace Bar"
Thanks for posting!
