PASSWORD 1967-04-06 Betty White & George Grizzard 

Same!

I think everyone was in love with Betty White during her long life.

Betty loved wearing her classic pearl necklace

Kirk Morgan agree though when 70s/80s came I would add Vicki Lawrence to

Don't forget Paul Anka and Peter Lawford. I've seen them pull correct answers out of thin air--kind of like "berth" from "upper" in this episode. Amazing.

Agreed👍

Don't forget his patented swing of the mic cord!

He looks debonair !

looks like a robot.

Betty and Allan were tremendous animal lovers. Gave many donations to good animal charities all their lives. I love them for that

Betty was a huge animal protector

BW is 99 actually!

And after all these years, she is still sharp, funny and beautiful.

Not always the case. Many get the Password on the first clue; it all depends on imaginative thinking which George seems to lack. He was a grump.

You’re right about the tension, I was aware of it too. Both Allen and Betty tried to appease to George's ego because he was a sore loser.

He said "heartily" not "hardly"

since she filled out the form before the show explaining all that, Alan has her explain it for the audiences sake.

Allen Ludden married Margaret McGloin on October 11, 1943. She died of cancer on October 30, 1961. They had a son, David, and two daughters, Martha and Sarah. Betty White and Allen met in 1961 on the set of his game show, Password, when she appeared as a guest. He proposed to Betty White at least twice before she accepted. In 1963, the couple tied the knot two years after meeting. Betty and Allen were married for 18 years until Ludden passed away from stomach cancer in 1981. Betty never remarried. When Anderson Cooper asked White in 2011 why she never remarried, she replied, "I had the love of my life. If you've had the best, who needs the rest?"

well she ought to be pretty good, she attends all of his shows, and they repeat the same words over and over, so she ought to have a good handle on what clues to give and also to guess.

There is another game where George beats Betty the whole game through. And Betty did not seem too happy.

@@m.e.d.7997 The competition is feirce!

The contestant, Dick Friedman was very handsome too...

He's a sore loser

@@MASTER.SON. Definitely, he was really pouting and kept making snotty little comments.

I thought he was terrific. Keep watching. Your comment looks foolish.

I think the clue was fig

@@ruthannmoyer316 thank you! That makes much more sense!

Yes!

The man who couldn't get Rue McClanahan's name right on the Emmy awards!

What is so extraordinary about it?

you mean those banners that cover up the word so you can't read it? how can you not notice it.

me thinks it's because they went to having them play 2 rounds instead of one giving them the opportunity to earn $700. Just my guess however.

Upper berth was a common term for the upper seats on a train...

Trains used to be a thing

I was surprised that he got it in only one clue !! And impressed. I might have played it like it was spelled birth ! 🦜

@@randysills4418 Exactly.

Welcome to 1967. Also -- the producers coordinated that kind of banter with the contestants.

Maybe her husband was more interesting than her

I saw another episode where they asked the woman this and I was shocked. Another time a beautiful contestant walked out and the men audibly said “Ooo, wow!” When asked what she did, she replied that she was a graduate student getting her Ph.D. and Allen replied, “Oh, she’s going to be a PRETTY doctor!” 🙄

since she filled out the form before the show explaining all that, Alan has her explain it for the audiences sake.

I didn't know that. He DID do a good job of concealing it.

In that era actors who were gay couldn’t come ‘out’, so George wasn’t concealing his sexuality. He simply didn’t flaunt it. Having said that I know of gay men who do not present as such (passing for straight) and go under the radar.

In America you have the right to talk about it or keep it to yourself. You prefer America was more like Iran or Syria?

Kind of matches his hair ☺

George was an excellent player. Sometimes when they run out of clues all players may do this if the word is going nowhere.
