What's My Line? - Roger Moore (1975) 

and you were a good player !

He did the cannonball run as Seymour Goldfarb

Nope. He was too much Simon Templar to be better than Sean Connery as Bond.

They didn't mention JamesBond

He was also outstanding in The Saint. And in Maverick. He had quite a career before he became Bond. And I hear he was a very conservative man. Which means he was smart, classy and was against looting stores and attacking police.

The car company wouldn't allow it...... they regretted it after lol

And sadly, not too long before Larry Blyden's tragic death, shortly after WML went off the air.

Haha yeah, and he married an Italian, spoke fluent Italian, went to Cortina in For Your Eyes Only and played an Italian in a film the title of which I can't remember. Maltese Cross or something like that.

Cubby killed comedian Ted Healy

If he was, then you can be.

Absolutely and a true gentleman...such a humble human being...I would say among the top 3 handsome men ever

YES!!! 🥰🥰🥰

But if this ever changing world in which we live in makes you give in and cry....... SAY #LIVEANDLETDIE

Yes, this show aired several months before the release of Moore's second Bond film, "The Man With the Golden Gun" (1974).

@@Apuleius_ That's right. In fact, the suit he's wearing here was made for The Man with the Golden Gun. Roger often kept his suits from his Bond films.

Ooo yes, the world knew he was Bond

@@Apuleius_ This show is from 1975. It couldn't have aired before a movie from 1974.

You must give me the name of your Optician

The 1975 episodes were probably filmed in 1974.

Its June 1975.

What was your line? And do you remember the mystery guest? I would recommend contacting Fremantle. They have the tapes from this series but not all have rerun.

No thanks. 👎

No humor

He was so rigid. Dances like a cardboard cutout.

But he is a sexy man

With as many mystery guests they had between that episode and this one, it would make sense for Soupy to not remember a specific voice from 3 years prior.

@Trey Stephens She means the CBS run from 1950-67.

Yes, this tripe seems to be aimed at five year-olds.

Agree. No comparison. Once it got to this point no reason to watch except for Arlene Francis maybe Larry has a little bit of couth and possibly the most three guests depending on who they are

Yes. For one thing this was a daily show that aired five times a week (all shot on tape in one day). The older version was once a week on Sundays at 10pm and was more like an adult after dinner game of charades. Since it was on during the day it was aimed at housewives and kids and it had to be faster and "hipper." The music alone makes it feel different.

@@hizgrase Yep.

@@manidig Good Lord the difference, look at the elegance, manners and good taste of an adult after dinner show for adults to enjoy on Sunday nights - how everything was done in the right frame of mind with goodness and right values back then - we have to fight for what these satanists have boldly and brazenly taken from us.

Agree no comparison . It was a one off that cannot be repeated.

Is this a children’s version?

I’m currently reading the book producer Gil Fates wrote on both the old network and this syndicated version of WML. He addresses this, stating they added those clues in syndication for multiple reasons, all of which were to purposely make each spot shorter: They thought the opening minutes where the panel groped around cluelessly to be boring and wanted to cut to the chase. Syndicated shows required more space for commercials, so the show had to be shorter in general. The shorter questioning allowed time for the interviews and demonstrations, which original host John Daley would never have approved of but which the production staff thought would be fun to include. Interestingly they also accounted for the opposite problem, running too short, which we see in this episode. That’s when they pull out that Who’s Who game. It’s a fascinating read, and I quite recommend it!

Why an old bag ??She looked like a nice lady .

Well she had been around a long time by the time these shows were shot, but Arlene still looked good. You make her sound like Gertrude Berg or Kate Smith.

Rude. She was a lovely lady.

Isn't it preposterous that people have to earn a living?!

Yes, but some of the episodes aired to September 1975 (three months after he died).
