  • Poor, old John. Never would have thought it could happen, when you hear all his 'clarifications' and how extremely good he is at watching his words. He's cute either way, though =)

  • 'Are you a comedian?'

    'I'm not as funny as John.'

    LOOOL

  • one for the blooper reel!

  • G-T always had a spot for Steve Allen. At this time Steve took over for Garry Moore on IGAS, when Moore got a prime time variety show on CBS. This was after Steve's ABC prime time show was cancelled after only one season (following four seasons on NBC, opposite Ed Sullivan). Steve was on the panel for the final prime-time WML in September 1967 along with Arlene Francis, Martin Gabel and Bennett Cerf.

  • @jvolstad Steve left the program around 10 years earlier on very good terms and returned on the panel and as the mystery guest. He and his wife Jayne Meadows appeared several times since. He and Arlene usually gave each other a warm welcome. This time, the welcome is as cold and impersonal as it could get. Knowing that Steve was in a good mood after the big slip-up, what was Arlene's problem? We'll never know because everyone in this video has long since passed on.

  • @MrWilliamtom I noticed that as well. Was there some bad blood between them when he left the program?

  • Anybody notice at the end of the video Steve gives Dorothy a very healthy hug and kiss. Then he gets to Arlene and they exchange a cold fish handshake.

  • @KennySherman You're thinking of Wally Bruner.  He hosted the syndicated version of this show from 1968 to 1972 I believe.

  • @KennySherman Buddy asked of both are you a forest ranger

  • Allen's whisper sounded an awful lot like him anyways...

  • The perils of Living Television
