PASSWORD 1962-09-30 Polly Bergen & Raymond Burr 

She wrote a beauty book back in the day

I no watched him in re run Don’t forget Rear Window !

Burr could play a great heavy too...pre-PM of course

I live in Tennessee! Poly Bergen was beautiful and elegant. Raymond Burr was handsome and gentlemanly

Nice your Aunt is still with you..

That’s wonderful!

Gorgeous

Most episodes of Perry Mason, at least in the seasons I've watched a lot of, ended with him and Della Street and Paul Drake grinning and laughing in the comic relief after the heaviness of a murder and a confession.

As a child, I thought he was creepy, and a perfect casting choice for the villain in "Rear Window."

Same here! Loved him in both Perry Mason & Ironside. Interestingly, Rear Window is my favorite Hitchcock film, and it's such a disconnect in my head seeing him play a bad guy in that movie!

I did too! So when I found them on sale @ WalMart l bought them. Now I can watch them any time:) :)

Raymond Burr was very generous. He gave a lot of money to charities.

He was a GREAT comedian when given the chance to shed his "serious" persona. His guest appearances on variety TV shows in the 50's, 60's and 70's are LEGENDARY!

He reminds me of George Clooney

Karen wasn't putting together the clues to get the overall meaning... I hate that..

POLLY BERGEN, not a swede like Candace, but a Jew. RAYMOND BURR, is it short for BURLINGER or whatever? Is he Jewish too, or not?

How were they contrived?

Aren't most games contrived? Normal behavior is constricted to a framework, a set of rules, a series of responses to artificial inputs (such as being handed a password).

She was pretty amazing. As an older woman, she was in a very memorable episode of “The Sopranos”, playing Tony’s father’s old mistress.

Could never answer the questions on College Bowl

it started on Tuesday nights and then moved to Sunday afternoons in September 1962. This was the 3rd Sunday episode.

Sopranos

I love her in this, she's so animated!

Yes, she was! The episode was “In Camelot. “ Even as an older woman she was gorgeous.

Me too! I kept saying scales to the screen, as if they could hear me LOL

I probably would have offered judge, magistrate, righteousness, rectitude, fairness, blind, scales, lady, chief-but whether any of those would have gotten the right response would have depended on the other team's clues and on the mind of my teammate.

Didn't he become a citizen???

I believe he did get his american citizenship papers as well, yes

I just thought of float, as a clue for "drift."

Agreed, Burr blew it, he's got to stick to the same meaning

I can explain that (being of the era of magnetic tape) : you actually heard the audio "image" of Alan Ludden yelling "pail!!" Imprinted on the reel of tape which carried over to that portion of tape where you heard it (just before the contestant got it right). I remember I think even with cassettes but certainly reel to reel recording, when anybody would yell or do something that was really loud, you would barely hear it either just before or just after the main imprint. I hope that explains it :-)

Ooh. That was weird.

It's print-through on the tape. It's essentially like writing with a marker on a roll of toilet paper: the ink bleeds through from the paper you're writing on to other layers; if the tape sits wound on the reel for a long time without being played, the magnetization bleeds through from the part that it was recorded on to other bits that are lying just above or below that bit when the tape is all wound up; if the signal is very strong, it can bleed through more than one layer, in both directions, so that you might get something like this, in chronological order: - faint echo of a faint echo of the original - faint echo of the original - original - faint echo of the original - faint echo of a faint echo of the original.

@@voicetube , the same thing has happened on at least one of my Compact Cassette audio tapes. It's also on the oldest surviving magnetic sound recording, a piece on wire from 1900.

By Polly's own admission she was a life long drinker. Notice she gets louder sillier when attention is on Raymond Burr.

She's very actressy and theatrical. Loves calling attention to herself

She and Raymond are just opposite personalities...

@@randysills4418 Well, not really. They both loved men!😉

@@dorothygillespie4466 🤯😁

Which was Sold last week to Developers! :/

Yes. Later it was published and Allen Ludden stopped saying "forthcoming".

World Book.

Paramount plus has the episodes.

I AGREE, because once they pass a word they can not go back to it. Even if there is extra time. It should be left to the contestant to decide. 🦉

@@marycook1644 Yes! As sweet as Betty White was, there's a real sharp 👿 edge to Alan's personality.

Isn't he just looking out for the contestant though?

Exactly! He is helping! I see no reason for people to make nasty comments as has @troyd.davidson427 @@ItsKrma00

You don't mean the one whispering the clues that sounds like he's making an obscene phone call do you?

Jack Clark introduced the panelists and Ludden at the top of the show; I'm not sure if Clark announced the passwords.

B

He is also good-looking. He hosted a few shows when Allen took a break.

I remember once he said "stockings" and gave a little orgasmic groan at the end.

They gave her an extra $50 for "smile." Allen said it right the first time ($400) and later corrected himself at the end of the episode.

She liked herself. She was so nearsighted but wouldn't wear glasses

@ZoneFighter1 That.... and also every time she would hold up one of those stupid cards (that don't even have anything to do with the show)!

aurally???

@@sparkleplenty5829 Aurally. adverb. with regard to sound or the ear.

Then don't watch if you are too intelligent for this! Just sayin'...

wouldn't be the first time

She tries to be cute. And can be argumentative.

Ridiculous. Are you so far gone that you can't just enjoy the shows without feeling the need to insert political trash in the comments?

You can tell you're right by the huge number of comments here from snowflakes demanding that these shows be removed from RU-vid.

Homonyms, such as "bale" and "bail" are accepted.

It's a common strategy in Password and many players used it.

He did that on purpose(and it WORKED!)

He knew the meaning. You didn't get what he was doing.

And then there are those who know of such things as homophones and soundalikes-but obviously Raymond Burr was not one of them. 🙄
