haha the shoes. I'm so glad they showed them at the end. I was in such suspense! Dorothy must have really been interested in fashion to stop the show to ask such a question lol
@@TheBatugan77 … okay? I just thought it was funny that they put her gender as part of her job title. Like there are more women who are kindergarten teachers, but calling someone a “Gentleman kindergarten teacher” sounds silly lol
A really good illustration of what WML did best -- pretty girls in the most unlikely occupations. Dorothy Kilgallen rules. Classic of her technique. Also a classic illustration of her interest in fashion. Oh Bennett! Remind him that the world needs all the pretty farmers of free range eggs it can ... . no pun intended .. . lay hands on.
soulierinvestments I have to disagree. This show is about the most funny occupations as well as the most unlikely combinations of occupation and people but hardly about pretty women (not girls).
How many chances is John Daly going to give Dorothy on her first line of questions. I'm typing this after she should have already gotten two NO answers.
It's not what I find disrespectful comments, in this day of political correctness most people would find disrespectful. Wolf whistles and innuendos are out of place in today's society, certainly are in England where I am from.
I understand, but do you think that we are a better society today because whistles are out of place? On the other hand It is widely accepted today to judge people, to call them rude or disrespectful... the guardians of political correctness attack you immediately without any pity or respect whenever you make a mistake.... apparently this is ok, but whistles (which are meant as a compliment) aren't...I do not believe that the women in this show had the feeling that they "had to go through" something terrible...today we live in a world where a man who is alone in an elevator is obliged to leave the elevator whenever a single woman enters, because he runs a risk that she makes up a story and sues him for sexual harassment, ... at least this is what employees of Mercedes Benz who are planning to become expats in the US are told in a preparation class (no kidding). it is definitely not ok to reduce a woman on her body but it is not ok either to treat men as predators just because they make compliments (e.g. like Benett Cerf often did..or Arlene did with young men).....I prefer living in a society where it is allowed to be charming with each other....
I can't disagree with most of what you say, PC has gone completely mad! but this is the world we live in today and have to adapt to ever changing attitudes. I am not familiar with USA laws but here in England, compliments as you put it would be considered sexual harassment and could cost you your job in the work place, or a court case. I am not criticising WML that was back then just using the programme as an example, today if TV personalities referred to women in the same way their careers would be over.
that's interesting that this would cost them their job. You know: I - as a gay person - benefit of course from PC, but I myself like to make women a compliment when I see a beautiful lady... sometimes women (and men) are stunningly beautiful and it is hard not to say it....I would prefer if we were more relaxed about this..(I also like gay jokes). I think the 1950/1960 WML panel was really classy and stylish (and charming in a good sense)... those were really educated, intelligent, urban people....thanks God they had a libido and reproduced themselves....
Why is it that the male comedians who occasionally get a spot on the panel are inevitably boorish, showoff-ish and often offensive ? E,G: Victor Borge, 'Groucho' Marx, Jerry Lewis, and the bald bloke here
