@@donnafoley9287 I remember reading a story about Elvis, this was late-60s if i can remember.. so after his 50s fame (arguably his peak) and before the 70s fame (arguably his peak also) where he went outside where he was recording.. he began talking to an elderly woman , if i can remember correctly, the topic of Elvis came up, she had no idea that she was actually talking to Elvis. He walked down to the other end of the main-street, and nobody batted an eye at him. He went back inside the studio thinking his fame was all but gone
I grew up watching "The Wonderful World of Disney" every week. He introduced each show, so his voice is immediately recognizable to me. What a heart for people.
This episode of What's My Line is pretty pertinent, given a few years later, in 1961, Walt Disney released 101 Dalmatians. In the film, Jasper and Horace are distracted from watching the puppies when the cat Sargant Tibbs locates them because the two crooks are watching a fictional game show called "What's My Crime?" Pretty obvious where the inspiration for that part of the film came from.
I was curious as to why he wasn't disguising his voice until Walt Disney said this line: "I was afraid to use falsetto because that would've been the mouse."
@@amyrosethehedgehog6155 Walt's not necessarily Mickey's father. According to his wife Lillian Bounds-Disney, Walt & Mickey's lives closely mirrored each other's (seeing how Mickey was envisioned by Walt, originally drawn by Ub Iwerks, and later given realistic weight & movement through squash & stretch by Fred Moore [who also upgraded Mickey's design to be cuter by making him appear more rounded with larger more expressive eyes, rather than the classic pie-eyed look of the past that's since made a comeback courtesy of the Paul Rudish Mickey shorts], along with being given the name of Mickey instead of Mortimer [which was in itself used thrice over as the name for Mickey's rival, the name of Minnie's distant uncle, and even one of Mickey's twin nephew's legal first name would be Mortimer too, but everyone, including both Mickey & Minnie, call him Morty for short to avoid further confusion] by Lillian herself) & as many fans have come to define the partnership, Mickey isn't just a figurehead mascot nor is his all-circle head shape merely simply an identifiable logo for the company, Mickey is basically Uncle Walt's alter-ego.
"I'm in Pittsburgh" I suppose means she's totally lost in darkness. Back in the day people brought a second shirt to work in Pittsburgh to change into after lunch because the smog stained their clothes before too long.

Indeed. It's just unfortunate that his memory has been left to the custodianship of a left wing culture that despises who he was. Walt was a businessman who wanted Disney to be a premier provider of family entertainment and at the forefront of technological progress. However, it has also become a company that actively advances radical far-left social causes that hate the country it was conceived within and hates the values that made its existence possible and beloved.
I love What's My Line! The show is timeless and the panel was pure class. It was wonderful to see Walt Disney, and I was reminded that my cousin's uncle was one of the lead animators at Disney studios. When my cousin had her first child, her uncle made a little stool for him, and on the top was an authentic painting of Mickey Mouse! I also remember going to my cousin's birthday parties, at her uncle's home, where we would get to watch the latest Disney films before the public saw them. At the time, I don't think we were aware of how privileged we were. It was only years later that I realized how incredibly special these occasions were.
Also gotta thank the people who actual recorded and archived this old content. You gotta think... someone, some how was able to VHS this, then maybe to CD for these to be uploaded to the internet. But that's just my thought and opinion.
Miss Francis here manages to out-funny Jerry Lewis, and that's a brilliant thing to see. Miss Kilgallen (Or however you spell it, it's hard to tell with this footage) asks some bloody good questions. Mr Cerf seems to know basically everyone semi-personally. This is a damn good line up of panellists.
Just a reminder that the media narrative that all American women were slaves who were not allowed to leave the Kitchen in the 1950s is just another example of crap spewed by SJWs
I add back in the original commercials for any episode where I have them available, but I only have around 2 dozen shows uncut. The original commercials never aired on GSN, which is where all these recordings come from.
its so interesting to me to hear Walt speak. Disney is one of the biggest companies in the entire world and to think it all started with one man. you almost sort of forget that behind all of it was this one person.
The panelists are so refined and wholesome compared with most you would get today. Some aspects of life were definitely better then. And their "mid-Atlantic" accents are noticeable and I approve!

Possibly one fo the most recognizable and famous people in the last 100 years. Legendary? He's the legend that other legends tell stories about with awed reverence.
First successful TV program in COLOR, in case y'all have forgotten, probably one of the biggest achievements we take for granted today, right after TV itself and the Internet
I saw this when it aired. My family usually watched it every week. I was 7 years old, and my mother actually knew Walt Disney. She grew up in the same Missouri town that he did (Marceline, near Kansas City) and they were in school at the same time. Her father worked on the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which is said to have inspired Disney's love of trains. Main Street USA at the Anaheim Disneyland was modeled after Marceline's main street.
Wow how fascinating to hear about the Tom Sawyer Island being discussed when it was simply an idea, now it is a beloved part of what makes Disney parks so special
@@andrewgates9333 Tom Sawyer Island is still intact, as is Frontierland. You’re probably thinking of Big Thunder Ranch which was sadly destroyed to make way for the waste of space better known as “Galaxy’s Edge.”
It's great to be able to step back in time, and watch these people do their thing. Grateful the show lasted so long and I still have plenty of episodes left to enjoy.

I was very privileged in the early 1970's to actually handle real Disney films in glorious black & white and colour film for a television station I worked at in Queensland Australia. Walt Disney would host one hour tv film programs called "Disneyland" each week. It was a television industry experience I will never forget and will never be repeated the 'warmth' of film broadcasting, which is sadly missed in today's television.
Andy Jay Everything is digital now, it removes the human touch from film, rendering it empty in a way... I have worked in media before and if I'm completely honest I didn't find it enjoyable, I was usually on a computer and my grandfather who worked with film in the United Nations told me it was the only thing that would bring an end to his trauma/PTSD from being a POW on the river Kwai, the one the famous film is about.. I guess it was relaxing for him to put together the film manually, as it was done years ago and rarely these days.
Bill Wilson I wonder if kids in 50 years time will say the same thing.. The good thing about Vinyl is that it is destined to outlast Cds, or at least in my opinion it will survive longer. It is more precious now than it was many years ago, people truly care about the way they store their Vinyl collections but at the same time others wish to find a much simpler form of entertainment, with the click of a button.. Everything is made for easy access and because of that we are missing out in a way. The best thing to do would be to collect Vinyl and keep it alive, not that it's going away anytime soon but even DJs are now using CD/Digital turntables. That scratch you hear when a record turns is it breathing :p
In the late 1950s on Fridays he hosted "Walt Disney Presents" in the U.S. on the NBC network. In the early 1960s the show switched to Sunday nights and was renamed "Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color." There's an interesting story behind that. Grace Lee Whitney portrayed Yeoman Janice Rand on "Star Trek," which also was on NBC. Remember how colorful the costumes were on that show? RCA owned NBC -- RCA also made and sold color television sets, and wanted to sell people on how wonderful and lively color was compared to black-and-white. No doubt renaming Walt Disney's show was part of that. Not directly related: on the Disney cable channel I saw reruns of Walt Disney's "Zorro," which were colorized in 1992. Too bad Guy Williams never lived to see them; he died two years earlier.
Brandon Fitzgerald: That “scratch” is annoying, especially in classical music. It’s like a cougher at a concert. Sometimes I miss the size of LP cover art, but not much else.
@@marshallartz395 Lol, same here absolutely annoying, I only ever bought a couple of records because of that, somehow I knew one day the technology would get better and lose the noise!! When CD's came out is when I finally started buying music uninterrupted by hissing and popping 👍
I was born that year in August, and I try to make it an annual tradition each year to visit Magic Kingdom Anaheim on my birthday. I met Walt once thanks to my mom for pointing him out to me while at Disneyland in the mid 60s. God bless you Walt.
I grew up in South Pasadena in the mid-50s thru 60s. I still remember how excited my sister and I were when my parents told us we were going to Disneyland one afternoon. I was too small to ride the Matterhorn. 😢 I am now 70.
@@tiamia7139 Back then,the Matterhorn was just a roller coaster inside a shell of the facade mountain...I think it was in the 1980s when they made the caves the coaster went through & added the ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN, or Big foot type monster to that ride.
I was 9 days away from entering this world when it aired, Nov. 11, 1956. My Mom was a fan of this show, so chances are I listened to this show once before...
My jaw dropped especially when they all laughed. How cruel. She was very playful and was enjoying being there immensely until that. I noticed she didn't stick around for the customary goodbyes. Poor woman.
He was a bigot and a racist. I’m disabled and learning about some of the things he said about disabled people while doing work for the MDA is really upsetting.
Oh what a wonderful episode!! Can u imagine meeting the great Jerry Lewis and the one and only WALT DISNEY on one stage?!? Nothing like old Hollywood and the 1950’s!❤️
I just want to say that I grew up in southern California and loved Disneyland we had to travel through farms and orange groves till you saw the Majestic Matterhorn, I remember when Walt passed I was in 6th grade and all California schools closed for the week. and flags flew at half mast. What amazing man.
So good to see him again. I hate to think what he’d think of what’s become of his wonderful work today. Very sad to see the changes in our country. (Jane)😢
Great to see how neat and sharp and polite everyone was! I met Walt Disney at Disneyland in the mid 60s. As a child Amazing!! And to see Jerry Lewis and Walt Disney together on tv so long ago
@@TheFrogInYourClosetWatchingYou Have you read Mark Shaw's book, " The Reporter Who Knew Too Much"? Amazing story and I absolutely believe she was murdered for "knowing too much", just like her close friend Marilyn Monroe. Shaw's follow-up book "Collateral Damage" explains the connections with the deaths of JFK, MM, and Dorothy Kilgallen.
I thought it was interesting that the crowd didn't necessarily recognize him. I mean, in today's world we all grew up knowing what he looked like, but John said he had only been on TV for the past two or three years. Before that, he was only behind the scenes. I find it gloriously fun to see how already, he was greatly loved by everyone, when he was technically a new face to his fans.
If you want a mystery in real life and aren't familiar with Dorothy Kilgaren (then you're probably younger than 60) Google her. Her investigative journalism and subsequent books into the Kennedy Assination and the Warren Commission is incredible.
When I was 13 my family went on a 2 week vacation thru the southwest states & California! I'm 62 now & remember it like it was yesterday! My life dream! We were in Disneyland on the day they opened "It's A Small World" & they had a parade to open it! Walt Disney was in that parade sitting on top of the back seats of a blue Cadillac convertible! I still have my pictures of him waving to the crowds! 💖 I think it was less than a year later that he died. It was his last open public appearance. I was so very excited!
I have one of the rare personalized signatures that Walt gave to my grandmother hanging above my drafting table. He's always been an idol of mine. He had so much presence and even now, I would wager most people could recognize him.
In 1965 I was 8 years old and on the USS Independence ship moving with my family to Greece where my US Army Dad was going to be stationed there. I was in their movie theater with my 2 younger sisters watching a movie which included a Disney cartoon. A picture of Walt Disney was included at the start of the cartoon. When the lights came in and everyone stood up Mr. Walt Disney and his wife were standing right in front of me. I stood there with my mouth hanging open, too shy to say anything. I whispered to my sisters who he was. They didn't believe me. I told my Mom when we got back to our cabin and she thought I was crazy. A few days later she found out Mr. Disney and his wife WERE on our ship traveling to Italy for vacation. I will never forget that moment and wish I had said hello to him. Ironically I have lived in Orlando FL (only 8 miles away from the Magic Kingdom) for the last 20 years. He was a dream maker and a genuis. 🏰♥️👏
@@traceyoliver9573 Thank you so much for sharing that! Such an amazing memory! I was born in 80 so meeting the man was never possible, but I have family ties. I live in the Inland Empire of SoCal and my Mom was lucky enough to not only be at the opening day of Disneyland, but rode in the front of Walt's train with Walt himself driving it. She and my family got to spend a lot of time with him and I still have a personalized autograph to my grandma hanging on my wall. I know he had issues, but in so many ways he has always been a creative idol of mine.
@@darkhoursofday6250 I remember when the local news channels would reference the Inland Empire in the 60s 🙂. Great story, lucky mom. I remember the I.E. with all the orange groves - for miles. "from the desert to the sea to all of southern California"
Enjoy going back in time with this show. Watched it every week with my grandparents, a nice memory. Found it interesting that the announcer mentioned the new TV series Gunsmoke. We watched that show also from its beginning
In the 50'es reducing pills, besides vitamins, etc, were containing Amphetamine as well, and they were quite popular. They were forbidden later on, but not before they had ruined a lot of lives. I hope that Lady came out of it in a good way.
Sadly, Hollywood producers often 'forced' their female stars to partake of such drugs (Marilyn Monroe/Judy Garland come to mind), with life-altering effects on the takers....
Great program! Met Mr. Lewis at a fun raiser. Walt Disney's legacy continues to bring immense joy and dive deep into our wallets, Disneyland, Disneworld has given a new meaning to having fun! What a creative man! 👏
Disney would be rolling in his grave if he knew his company would come to be managed by pedophiles and marxist communists pushing all the immoral garbage they do now.

I was born in 1969, and I watched Sesame Street a lot as a kid. They had a spoof of this called "What's My Part." There were two episodes, featuring a nose and a foot as the guests. I can see where they get the characters "Bennett Snerf" and "Arlene Frantic," as they really nail these actual panelists in the spoof.
My parents took me as a baby to the first weeks opening of Disneyland! Have super 8 movies of me and dad on the teacup ride & others. As a child Disneyland was an inexpensive local family destination out in mostly rural Orange County Ca.
I've read a great deal about Mister Disney. All who spoke of him or wrote about him made me believe him to be a very warm, genuine and gracious person. To say he didn't leave an incredible mark on America and on its entertainment is an understatement. He seems here to be a lighthearted and wonderful man. RIP Mr Disney.
i can't BELIEVE i've fallen down a rabbit hole of binge watching 1950s panel shows at three in the morning.

Miss Francis here manages to out-funny Jerry Lewis, and that's a brilliant thing to see.
Miss Kilgallen (Or however you spell it, it's hard to tell with this footage) asks some bloody good questions.
Mr Cerf seems to know basically everyone semi-personally.
This is a damn good line up of panellists.
All the sweeter considering Lewis' abiding dislike of women comedians.
I'm pretty sure, Dorothy guessed a lot of the guests (or helped the other panelists guess) by her intelligent questions May she R I P
Dorothy Kilgallen was one of the sharpest minds in entertainment. Her curious death is still haunting today.
The women on this panel are brilliant.
Cerf was no slouch.
Just a reminder that the media narrative that all American women were slaves who were not allowed to leave the Kitchen in the 1950s is just another example of crap spewed by SJWs
@@hardworker5588 LOL
RIP Dorothy Kilgallen. May the truth of your demise come out one day.
they don't make em like that anymore :\
I actually kind of wish they left the commercials in lol
I add back in the original commercials for any episode where I have them available, but I only have around 2 dozen shows uncut. The original commercials never aired on GSN, which is where all these recordings come from.
What's My Line?
fair enough
Thank you
sometimes they are.
Exactly what I thought
Ah yes, one of the most fun game show moments of this show. The diet pills! Then we got Uncle Walt! What a gift.
its so interesting to me to hear Walt speak. Disney is one of the biggest companies in the entire world and to think it all started with one man. you almost sort of forget that behind all of it was this one person.
When this show aired, I was a few hours old. What a world I came into.
I was 10 days old myself
My mom was 4 1/2 years old.
I was 45 years away from being born lmao
I would have turned 2 years old in two days from that date. 😉
My grandma was a few months old when this aired 😅 Born on Groundhog Day in 1956!
Man, I just found this. When Walt signed that blackboard with his actual signature... it was greatness!
Walt Disney has one of the wealthiest autographs in Hollywood History, because his signature is extremely rare.
Do not purchase any WML signature boards. They are fake !

Disneyland was open just one year and ~5 months when this show was taped. It was nice to see Walt again, savvy and poised he was
and fun to hear the attractions he was working on. I remember when the skyway ("chair lift") opened.
I was born the same month Disneyland opened... I loved seeing the warmth and humanity of Walt Disney (the person) in this setting!

Thank you for uploading ❤
I absolutely love those year's aesthetics, the branding for products, the style, the initiation of TV in our daily lives and the fact that they were so creative to come up with shows and games
It's called Googie. I love it too!
I'm really impressed with Walt Disney being on the show. I guess he's that legendary.
You *guess* ?
Possibly one fo the most recognizable and famous people in the last 100 years. Legendary? He's the legend that other legends tell stories about with awed reverence.
The man who made the company that now controls a gigantic percentage of all media entertainment? Never heard of him.
When I was little and watched The Wonderful World of Disney, I didn't know Disney was a person (my parents...for shame!)
First successful TV program in COLOR, in case y'all have forgotten, probably one of the biggest achievements we take for granted today, right after TV itself and the Internet
I saw this when it aired. My family usually watched it every week. I was 7 years old, and my mother actually knew Walt Disney. She grew up in the same Missouri town that he did (Marceline, near Kansas City) and they were in school at the same time. Her father worked on the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which is said to have inspired Disney's love of trains. Main Street USA at the Anaheim Disneyland was modeled after Marceline's main street.
Hello Sharon, How are you doing?
Wow. Thanks for sharing.
Little connections like that are so neat! My grandma went to school with Jerry Lewis but they were in different grades and he didn’t know her.
Thanks for sharing, that is neat. 🙂

Wow how fascinating to hear about the Tom Sawyer Island being discussed when it was simply an idea, now it is a beloved part of what makes Disney parks so special
It may be gone now. They destroyed frontierland
I rember going to it the first year it was open
@@andrewgates9333 Tom Sawyer Island is still intact, as is Frontierland. You’re probably thinking of Big Thunder Ranch which was sadly destroyed to make way for the waste of space better known as “Galaxy’s Edge.”

I think..not sure... that jerry lewis is still alive ..could be wrong
@@gailsirois7175 Jerry left us a few years back.
Yes I looked it up and discovered he passed in 2017
I remember watching this show on TV as a young boy. Watching it again gives me a new sense of appreciation.
Jerry basically asked walt if he's paying his taxes. Lmfaoooo
I know and you could almost see Walt being like "wtf dude" in his body language after lol.
It's great to be able to step back in time, and watch these people do their thing. Grateful the show lasted so long and I still have plenty of episodes left to enjoy.

RIP Dorothy. Beautiful, funny and intelligent. Taken so cruelly and way too soon.
Who is she, what happened
@@senyahcgmailHi Cheri, she was an investigative journalist who got to close to the truth. Her death is recorded as alcohol and barbiturates. I'm not so sure. I think she was murdered.
Best wishes from Scotland Cheri xx.
After asking my question, I googled it and fell down a 13 hour rabbit hole. There is no telling what all she brought to light, not to mention Hollywood. I would like to hear her audio tapes that were given nightly or so, from her residence.
Greetings from Tennessee, USA 🇺🇸
@@senyahcgmail Hi Cheri, yes, thankfully we have Google which lays bare the dreadful way Dorothy was treated. Quite incredible reading and very sad.
You and your family stay safe.

@@johnpirie3800 She got too close to the truth. What truth? The meaning of life?
John Daley truly does moderate the panel brilliantly!
Walt Disney was a class act. A force of nature
I was very privileged in the early 1970's to actually handle real Disney films in glorious black & white and colour film for a television station I worked at in Queensland Australia.
Walt Disney would host one hour tv film programs called "Disneyland" each week. It was a television industry experience I will never forget and will never be repeated the 'warmth' of film broadcasting, which is sadly missed in today's television.
Andy Jay Everything is digital now, it removes the human touch from film, rendering it empty in a way... I have worked in media before and if I'm completely honest I didn't find it enjoyable, I was usually on a computer and my grandfather who worked with film in the United Nations told me it was the only thing that would bring an end to his trauma/PTSD from being a POW on the river Kwai, the one the famous film is about.. I guess it was relaxing for him to put together the film manually, as it was done years ago and rarely these days.
Bill Wilson I wonder if kids in 50 years time will say the same thing.. The good thing about Vinyl is that it is destined to outlast Cds, or at least in my opinion it will survive longer. It is more precious now than it was many years ago, people truly care about the way they store their Vinyl collections but at the same time others wish to find a much simpler form of entertainment, with the click of a button.. Everything is made for easy access and because of that we are missing out in a way. The best thing to do would be to collect Vinyl and keep it alive, not that it's going away anytime soon but even DJs are now using CD/Digital turntables. That scratch you hear when a record turns is it breathing :p
In the late 1950s on Fridays he hosted "Walt Disney Presents" in the U.S. on the NBC network. In the early 1960s the show switched to Sunday nights and was renamed "Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color." There's an interesting story behind that. Grace Lee Whitney portrayed Yeoman Janice Rand on "Star Trek," which also was on NBC. Remember how colorful the costumes were on that show? RCA owned NBC -- RCA also made and sold color television sets, and wanted to sell people on how wonderful and lively color was compared to black-and-white. No doubt renaming Walt Disney's show was part of that.
Not directly related: on the Disney cable channel I saw reruns of Walt Disney's "Zorro," which were colorized in 1992. Too bad Guy Williams never lived to see them; he died two years earlier.
Brandon Fitzgerald: That “scratch” is annoying, especially in classical music. It’s like a cougher at a concert. Sometimes I miss the size of LP cover art, but not much else.
@@marshallartz395 Lol, same here absolutely annoying, I only ever bought a couple of records because of that, somehow I knew one day the technology would get better and lose the noise!! When CD's came out is when I finally started buying music uninterrupted by hissing and popping 👍
There was great respect for Walt in Jerry's eyes. You could see it when they shook hands.
Or maybe Jerry just knew the deep dark truth about Walt Disney that is about to be coming out for all to hear and see, sadly.
@@dee-smart On no, another human so dumb they can't tell fact from fiction.
Holy cow, he's a mind reader and his son is a professional pickpocket. Dorothy is a savage!
The reporter who knew too much.
Walt Disney was a genius when it came to family-friendly entertainment.
Walt would hate what his parks have turned into. He built them to be affordable for family's day out.
Look at the Disney kingdom today. Celebrate perverted behavior.
And he would be ROLLING in his grave if he saw what they've turned into today......
And an extraordinaryly misogynistic racist man, even for those times. Terribly unfair employer as well.
@@RXbee2 SADLY....many have said the same....however, his Empire has become a MIRE of problems.
God this show remains as fresh as it was when I was a kid-B & W or color, it matters not...It really was an entertaining time. Wow...
It's truly a great historical time capsule.
I love all of the old shows. So much better than what we have today!
Amen.
Absolutely! You're right there.
Thank goodness we have them here!
I love how everyone is just completely taken by Walt, smiles plastered on all their faces. What a special moment this, what a special man he was.
It's fun to watch these old shows. We see iconic names as normal people. How cool!
I was born that year in August, and I try to make it an annual tradition each year to visit Magic Kingdom Anaheim on my birthday. I met Walt once thanks to my mom for pointing him out to me while at Disneyland in the mid 60s. God bless you Walt.

You have been lied to. Walt was not beloved, he was racist the whole time. We have been betrayed and lied to by our leaders. Walt was a racist.
I grew up in South Pasadena in the mid-50s thru 60s. I still remember how excited my sister and I were when my parents told us we were going to Disneyland one afternoon. I was too small to ride the Matterhorn. 😢 I am now 70.
@@jessicathethreestoogesfan2635 Everyone was racist during those times.
@@tiamia7139 Back then,the Matterhorn was just a roller coaster inside a shell of the facade mountain...I think it was in the 1980s when they made the caves the coaster went through & added the ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN, or Big foot type monster to that ride.
times were so simpler, people talks differently, moved with grace
I remember learning of his death from the news on television in the sixties. He was the first person for whom I wept at the learning of a death.
"Walt, did you check with the government to see if they need any money" Jerry, how true that is 65 years later.
I was 9 days away from entering this world when it aired, Nov. 11, 1956. My Mom was a fan of this show, so chances are I listened to this show once before...
I was one MONTH away from being born !!
Wow, Jerry Lewis "doesn't she take (diet pills) at any time?!?!"
Pulling no punches, damn.
It was easier to be offensive back then i suppose
My jaw dropped especially when they all laughed. How cruel. She was very playful and was enjoying being there immensely until that. I noticed she didn't stick around for the customary goodbyes. Poor woman.
@@MsPengwn i know right. I was pretty shocked too
Shutterbun,
How rude of a statement he made.
He was a bigot and a racist. I’m disabled and learning about some of the things he said about disabled people while doing work for the MDA is really upsetting.
Walt Disney came into our homes every Sunday night. His voice was recognizable.
Oh what a wonderful episode!! Can u imagine meeting the great Jerry Lewis and the one and only WALT DISNEY on one stage?!? Nothing like old Hollywood and the 1950’s!❤️
talk about mind reading Dorothy. Go girl.
I like how her mind works.
@Diane Newman You are paranoid
Dorothy HATED to lose. She did not guess a contestant for a few weeks and she burst into tears!
10:19 how could she end up guessing “mind reader or pick pocket” at the end of that?
I just want to say that I grew up in southern California and loved Disneyland we had to travel through farms and orange groves till you saw the Majestic Matterhorn, I remember when Walt passed I was in 6th grade and all California schools closed for the week. and flags flew at half mast. What amazing man.
Yes, we came to run our horses ar Los Alamitos, surrounded by strawberry fields....😪
Glorious wasn't it!
The first one to espy the Matterhorn and know how close we were. Wardlow turned into Ball Rd. and you were there!
So good to see him again. I hate to think what he’d think of what’s become of his wonderful work today. Very sad to see the changes in our country. (Jane)😢
Great to see how neat and sharp and polite everyone was! I met Walt Disney at Disneyland in the mid 60s. As a child Amazing!! And to see Jerry Lewis and Walt Disney together on tv so long ago
Dorothy was class Woman, and I love Very Much Walt Disney ..
sad what happened to her
@@TheFrogInYourClosetWatchingYou Have you read Mark Shaw's book, " The Reporter Who Knew Too Much"? Amazing story and I absolutely believe she was murdered for "knowing too much", just like her close friend Marilyn Monroe. Shaw's follow-up book "Collateral Damage" explains the connections with the deaths of JFK, MM, and Dorothy Kilgallen.
I thought it was interesting that the crowd didn't necessarily recognize him. I mean, in today's world we all grew up knowing what he looked like, but John said he had only been on TV for the past two or three years. Before that, he was only behind the scenes. I find it gloriously fun to see how already, he was greatly loved by everyone, when he was technically a new face to his fans.
True, the next generation would grow seeing Walt on TV every Sunday night but this was an earlier generation who only knew his work, not his face.
@@bentleyr00d see
@@bentleyr00d Never missed a show all in b&w.

@@laurahoward5426 He was not.
If you want a mystery in real life and aren't familiar with Dorothy Kilgaren (then you're probably younger than 60) Google her. Her investigative journalism and subsequent books into the Kennedy Assination and the Warren Commission is incredible.
This aired on my mom’s birthday. A few weeks later I turned one years old. Seeing Walt Disney’s face brings back many good childhood memories.
When I was 13 my family went on a 2 week vacation thru the southwest states & California! I'm 62 now & remember it like it was yesterday! My life dream! We were in Disneyland on the day they opened "It's A Small World" & they had a parade to open it! Walt Disney was in that parade sitting on top of the back seats of a blue Cadillac convertible! I still have my pictures of him waving to the crowds! 💖 I think it was less than a year later that he died. It was his last open public appearance. I was so very excited!
What a lovely memory 💟
That timeline doesn’t hold as Disneyland opened in 1955 and Walt died in 1966. You weren’t born yet when Disneyland opened if you’re 62.
I have one of the rare personalized signatures that Walt gave to my grandmother hanging above my drafting table. He's always been an idol of mine. He had so much presence and even now, I would wager most people could recognize him.
In 1965 I was 8 years old and on the USS Independence ship moving with my family to Greece where my US Army Dad was going to be stationed there. I was in their movie theater with my 2 younger sisters watching a movie which included a Disney cartoon. A picture of Walt Disney was included at the start of the cartoon. When the lights came in and everyone stood up Mr. Walt Disney and his wife were standing right in front of me. I stood there with my mouth hanging open, too shy to say anything. I whispered to my sisters who he was. They didn't believe me. I told my Mom when we got back to our cabin and she thought I was crazy. A few days later she found out Mr. Disney and his wife WERE on our ship traveling to Italy for vacation. I will never forget that moment and wish I had said hello to him. Ironically I have lived in Orlando FL (only 8 miles away from the Magic Kingdom) for the last 20 years. He was a dream maker and a genuis. 🏰♥️👏
@@traceyoliver9573 Thank you so much for sharing that! Such an amazing memory! I was born in 80 so meeting the man was never possible, but I have family ties. I live in the Inland Empire of SoCal and my Mom was lucky enough to not only be at the opening day of Disneyland, but rode in the front of Walt's train with Walt himself driving it. She and my family got to spend a lot of time with him and I still have a personalized autograph to my grandma hanging on my wall. I know he had issues, but in so many ways he has always been a creative idol of mine.

Enjoy going back in time with this show. Watched it every week with my grandparents, a nice memory. Found it interesting that the announcer mentioned the new TV series Gunsmoke. We watched that show also from its beginning
In the 50'es reducing pills, besides vitamins, etc, were containing Amphetamine as well, and they were quite popular. They were forbidden later on, but not before they had ruined a lot of lives. I hope that Lady came out of it in a good way.
Sadly, Hollywood producers often 'forced' their female stars to partake of such drugs (Marilyn Monroe/Judy Garland come to mind), with life-altering effects on the takers....
Indeed. Here's the link to an article titled, "America's First Amphetamine Epidemic 1929-1971".
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2377281/
That article even lists the Pfizer product mentioned in the show, “Amplus”.
Fun fact “Heroin” is originally a brand name as well.
It appears that Mrs.Lawrence only packaged the pills,and did not use them.

One of my favorite game shows as a kid.
Walt Disney passed away 50 years ago, 12/15/66.

This was the infancy of tv. Very interesting to watch and think about the actual time period they were in.
This is 4 months after Jerry and Dean broke up.
Every time I watch this episode, I cry. Bittersweet.
My parents took me as a baby to the first weeks opening of Disneyland! Have super 8 movies of me and dad on the teacup ride & others. As a child Disneyland was an inexpensive local family destination out in mostly rural Orange County Ca.
“More applause after you signed in then when you walked out.” That’s some razor-sharp observation work.
