@Fintan Cummings Exactly my tought I’m so glad I found this show It’s like you said funny and entertaining even after all this time!! ☺️😁 sorry for my english I’m french 😒
This was a funny episode. Just plain honest fun. Now celebrities try too hard to be funny and their not.. they annoying me.. Games showd are not the same anymore.
I was homeless for a time in Birmingham, Alabama and yes, I had my shoes stolen from me! Went barefoot for two days before I found a pair at a shelters clothing stash.
Someone should have advised her. She really does make it uncomfortable and you simply must ignore her. She only knows a few things and repeats them too much, like complaining about the buzzer guy and the parking lot. . You must have many tricks and bring in things that somehow relate to the subject at hand. That's what Dawson is so good at.
That was brave of Arlene to mention that she was a single-mother back then. People were supposed to be ashamed of that. Now, three quarters of all mothers are single mothers.
She may have been an unwed mother, but she didn't say that. She just didn't mention a husband. She could have been divorced, a widow, or a rape victim. The CDC's latest figures (from the 2010 census) are 29% of births among non-Hispanic white women (like Arlene?) are to unwed mothers, and 72+% among black. www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hus/2011/007.pdf I've read recent stats of 30% and 75% respectively, but don't recall the source.
The Vietnam War made widows of many young women. In addition, many women were left in limbo for years if their husbands or fiances were MIA (missing in action).
@@kevinfitzmaurice4072 She was an actress. She was in "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World," and an episode of Star Trek called "Space Seed." She was in a lot more too.
@@donarthiazi2443 Madelyn Rue was all over the place from the beginning of the late 50's. For example, she was in the 1963 film "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" (she played Dick Shawn's girlfriend), the 1967 episode of "Star Trek" as Khan's love interest, etc. In 1977 she was diagnosed with Multiple sclerosis. She continued to work until 1996. Her final role was created for her by Angela Lansbury for "Murder She Wrote".
Richard was referring to C&R Clothiers, a chain of stores in California specializing in cheap men's clothes, especially suits. They used to advertise on local TV all the time and were very well known in the Los Angeles area where the show was recorded.
The Confucius question about bird in the hat reminds me of how different things were in the 1970s. The contestant was so embarrassed to say bird do-do. The audience roared with laughter. Similarly my Mom would get so embarrased by some of the things Archie Bunker said to Edith. Such a sweet and innocent time. Good memories too.
A show like SNL could do crazy accents if the right comedian did it in the right sketch. All it takes is the right premise like making fun of 1970's game shows. LOL
@@thejetset3357 HaHaHa no shit Sherlock 🕵️♂️. Anyone that understands English can see that I was wondering if Chelsi knew that Richard was dead.🤔 If she is NOT aware of it then when she learns... perhaps she'll forget about this decades old crush of hers. SEE, now that's not so hard is it my dear Watkins? In fact it's _elementary_ 🤣🤣😭😭
Does anyone else find Gene (almost) always explaining about "some contestants find certain questions harder than others" clunky and unnecessary? Do the contestants care why they get to pick their question? It's just how the game works, like choosing a celebrity on Hollywood Squares. I'm pretty sure that explanation did disappear in later episodes when the show was more established and people knew how it was played. Wastes time and doesn't add anything to the show (although many viewers still complain about certain contestants getting the "easy" questions like it isn't a Heads-Tails choice).
Yes it is over repetitive in many other ways, but I think it is for the listeners that are first tuning in. I do a lot of fast forwarding. Actually, I don't think the "harder" reason is correct. It is to add some element of randomness so there is less chance the questions are selected for any contestant to have an advantage.
I didn't notice it being said in the first few episodes (maybe I missed it), but when I heard it for the first time I wondered if something triggered it. In any case, I'm sure the reason for it is to remind folks they play a clean game. Goodson & Todman were around during the quiz show scandals, but not involved. Most folks are dumb, thus think stupid thoughts like "I bet they gave her the shitty question on purpose." They just want to remind everyone THAT'S not how they'd get ya. The panel's who's gonna get ya, and it's them getting you; no one tellin' em to. There's a time conversion on my two cents. It's the 1820's. It gets you a lot. And then I curtsied.
ROFL! Another fine episode! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Gene! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Charles! ;0) ROFL! Love ya Patti! ;0) beans.. I love it when you acted and voices.. ;0) Thank you Charles.. ;0) Nose job.. Polar bear.. Fish.. seal.. cop.. clement block.. That laugh and smile.. ;0)
I spent some time searching online, and could not find any sort of rule that a la mode only applies to pairing ice cream with a solid food rather than a liquid. That said, I also couldn't find a single a la mode dish that didn't involve a solid food. I think from a practical view point, though, Charles is essentially correct. If you have ice cream on a plate with some liquid, then that liquid basically just becomes a syrup or topping for the ice cream, rather than the ice cream being an accompaniment to the other food like it is with pie or cake.
I can't believe they haven't caught on to Saint Richard YET?! I knew he was gonna say Spaghetti before the music even STOPPED! It's a stupid answer (most of his answer's are), but stupid or not, knowing he was gonna say Spaghetti, I would have said it
You think Blood A La Mode is a less stupid answer to the question? He's not Don Dracula. What about when Saint Contestant gives a brainless bimbo answer? The question also kind of sucked. What would The Godfather eat with ice cream? An eclair? Cake? Horse head a la mode? There isn't really anything that makes sense.
@kristabrewer6736 ALL of your post are stoopid and hateful so stop. No one wants to read about your personal issues. It's boring and repetitive. Enough!
