Shirley Booth was a great actress. During her long and distinguished career on stage, in movies, and tv, she won three Tonys, an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and two Emmys.
i absolutely LOVE Shirley Booth. Watching Hazel reruns lets me be a little kid again living in the 60s. I call it "comfort" tv where i can release the burdens of being an adult for 30 minutes in this digital world.
Thank you for reminding me of that wonderful show. In 1961, I was I and loved Hazel. Just fou d the first season streaming online and watched the first episode.
@@sbalman Even up till 1965 it was still good even with a different cast. Most of them have died and how about Bobby Buntrock dying at such a young age, very very Sad !!!!!
I enjoy these videos so much when the panel and Mr. Daley are so affectionate to their guests as they were here to Miss Booth. She was so deserving of their admiration and tenderness, too. Anyone reading this, who never saw COME BACK, LITTLE SHEBA - find it, get it, watch it, be amazed at her first - ever film performance.
It seems that Shirley Booth, Lucille Ball and Jayne Mansfield were the most popular mystery guests throughout the entire 17 years of the legendary show ! Good for them... pleasure for us !
Love Dorothy's laugh! And love love Arlene! I never knew who these people are until these videos, I really fell in love Arlene and her personality, what a beautiful woman she was, Dorothy too.
Shirley Booth such a lovely person & actress. U must watch her in the movie "Come Back Little Sheba" w/ Burt Lancaster. Spectacular performances by both. Thank u for this upload of "What's My Line"
Jonathon Edwards Jonathon you have great taste in movies. "Come Back Little Sheba" is also one of my favorite films. I most recently read that Burt Lancaster said in an interview that Shirley Booth was the most talented actress he had ever worked with. What a wonderful compliment. They were both legends.
Lancaster did indeed think that Booth was a fine actress. He was quite unhappy when she told him she would be playing Hazel on television. He protested that she was one of the best actresses in the business. She responded that on TV she would achieve a level of financial security she had never experienced before and how much that meant to her. "Isn't everyone?" indeed.
I had to laugh at 20:46 when Shirley blurted out "Oh, you mean thing!" in the unique Booth voice. You've got to catch her in "Come Back, Little Sheba" if you haven't.
Shirley was a great actress. She was advised to not do television by Burt Lancaster. She decided to go ahead and had great success and made money beyond what she had before. She loved the Show.
In reference to Hedda Hopper's book "The Whole Truth And Nothing But": Mrs. Hopper's publisher, Doubleday, was forced to recall all unsold copies of the first edition and issue a revised edition, which excised the libelous passage that Stewart Granger and Michael Wilding had been allegedly involved in a homosexual affair in the 1940s. Not a word of that passage was true - except that Hedda may, indeed, have said so to Elizabeth Taylor as a "reason" for warning her not to marry Michael Wilding. I think that Hopper and Doubleday also had to issue a public apology to both gentlemen - which Hopper did, grudgingly and with bad grace.
Wilding sued Hopper for her lies and won the case. Hopper is the predecessor to today's popular big-mouthed media windbags you see on FOX "News" who make millions pushing fabrications and gossip to gullibles. Like her successors, she was most frequently on the wrong side of the facts and history, including her prominent role in using her newspaper column and political connections to blacklist and slander scores of Americans in and out of Hollywood over her career.
Amazing some of the lines she got away with, routinely, on a high profile live broadcast. She was the main person responsible, I feel, for creating that chic, cocktail party sort of atmosphere that's so much of what I love about WML.
What's My Line? You can get away with almost everything, if you're gifted with charme and sex-appeal, of which Arlene had a lot. On the contrary, Dorothy had to stick to her "clever-girl-image". Exept giving birth to children, she was never a WOMAN.
SuperWinterborn What narrow definition of "woman" are you applying here? Misogyny at its finest - there are as many different kinds of women as there are women capable of defining themselves. Arlene offers one very attractive kind of personality, Dorothy an altogether different kind of charm. They're both fascinating individuals.
Pete Farrugia Of course this was an abbreviated description of what I tried to express, and I can assure you, that it had nothing to do with misogyny in any form. Dorothy was a brilliant woman, and the panel suffered a great loss, when she was gone! Ms Kilgallen, like a lot of MEN in similar positions, compared with their own sex, couldn't compete with others, who had "it", and with "it", I mean the gift of being 'rough' without really being 'rough'. If she had said those things Arlene often 'got away with', it would at its best, sounded clumsy, or at its worst, rather cheap. That's why she "had to stick to her clever-girl-image." This unwritten rule, concerns both sexes equally.
I never heard of Hedda Hopper before watching this video. If her Wikipedia entry is even remotely accurate, she kept pretty busy making more than a few enemies in her lifetime: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedda_Hopper
Even Bette Davis demurred to Shirley Booth and refused to attempt the role in Come Back Little Sheba - only Booth could convey the 'vague gorgeousness' the writer demanded for the role.
Shirley Booth was a big actress. I remember her in "Come back, little Sheba", "The matchmaker" and "About, Mrs. Leslie", to mention three of her distinguished work. Her Oscar for the first was well deserved.
One of the greatest, and most heart-wrenching films of all time! (Remember the New Years Eve Times Square scene?) Truly unforgettable! Saw it last over 40 years ago at least - still crying! Shirley Booth was one of the greatest actresses ever. People who only remember her as Hazel have no idea..... and Come Back Little Sheba was not bad either!
While we're recommending Shirley Booth movies, I'd like to mention "The Matchmaker," the 1958 film based on Thornton Wilder's play, the source from which "Hello, Dolly" was adapted. I like the musical a lot, but it had to leave out a lot to make room for the songs. Shirley Booth as Dolly Levi gives a most touching performance.
Dorothy WAS show business. She should know that Tallulah never was never even nominated for an Oscar! Shirley Booth was always a treat. She probably didn't have time to be on the panel. I think she would have done fine.
Bankhead actually won the New York Film Critics Award for Best Actress "Lifeboat" (1944). (And yes, she wasn't nominated for an Oscar for it, which she should have been.) Perhaps that' s what Dorothy was thinking of.
I was thinking, 'Where do I know Shirley Booth from.' I remember the TV show "Hazel" ! It was a favourite. Wonderful to see these TV stars from your childhood.
Shirkey Booth is talking about meeting John Kennedy of course. He would be murdered just 8 months later. She was a great actress. I think this was her time on the show. Panel I think recognized her voice. She didn't disquise too good.
If you had said that Kennedy would be assassinated 8 months later back then, you would be a psychic. I wonder what those in 2063 would say about what is about to happen now.
Arlene is just...Arlene. haha! Such a minx!...And I do wish there were color eps available. Dorothy's blue eyes would have been a treat to see. This copy, for some reason, gives you the hint of her lighter colored eyes. I had no idea she had blue eyes until i read her bio.
Yeah I didn't know they were blue until I started reading her bio too. In every color treated picture I've seen of her, her eyes always are colored in green.
@@jillgordon1003 She and I went to the same eye Dr. ( Robert Morrison ) and she wore tinted hard lenses. She was so funny when she asked Carol Channing who fit her with lenses.. Carol replied " Dr Morrison" of course !!!
I remember watching Hazel,💜💜💜 when I was a little girl... black n white TV 📺 era...I love❤ watchin it & "What's my Line"??? 🎭📺🌻I can watch on yt ... Funtastic time asa child🙏❤🙏❤🥰
+Daryl Holt You might be looking through the wrong end of the telescope: what if you were in charge of such a project? Problem #1: picking a panel moderator; #2: finding at least two intelligent, dynamic, amusing, people for the panel; #3 choosing a panel, all rotating panelists included, with enough on the ball that they would need not resort to cheap tricks-such as raunchy humor-to make it easier on themselves. If you were given complete control, it would be a tough swim; o/w, or in a sitch of slowly loosing control, it would be swimming in a rip tide! Just being given the same ignorant malodorous advice over & over would drive you up a wall.
Wasn't there previously a pair of girls on from Virginia who made nose warmers? I remember one or both modeling them afterward (they were tied on with yarn).
I love Shirley Booth. While I have seen both Hazel and the movie of Come back Little Sheba it 's her role of Mrs. Claus in a Year Without a Santa Claus the is my all time favorite role she has done.
I totally believed Hedda when she hissed "Oh, I could kill you." So genteel. I half expected the mask to slip and Predator to spring out at Arlene. No wonder the stars "loved" her so much.
In a few months, Booth won her second Emmy award for "Hazel," defeating Lucille Ball {The Lucy Show], a young Mary Tyler Moore {the Dick Van Dyke Show], and Irene Ryan [The Beverly Hillbillies] All were fairly new or new programs. If you listen to her comments about Easter Seals in the White House, you see how much professional jargon changes in a mere 50 years. I used to show this clip to my composition students as an example of that point.
Good question! I've always been more interested in the "ordinary people" whose lines had to be guessed than in the Mystery Guests. Peggy Goetz, where are you?
Interesting how some people with a stage name have no trouble signing that name, yet when Marilyn monroe changed her name the first time she signed something , she had to ask someone how to spell Marilyn 🤣. RIP both.
Who are these people who keep disliking these videos? Shame on you! Too bad I can't dislike you, too. If you don't have anything nice to say, then get a life and go away.
Welcome to the internet. :) It may make you feel better to know that as far as CZcams is concerned, downvotes probably help videos in search rankings just as much as upvotes, because all CZcams cares about is "engagement", not whether the engagement is positive!
I like Shirley Booth so much that I enjoyed watching "Hazel," even though I could barely stand the character. She was a busybody, nosey, bossy, inserted herself where she wasn't wanted, and played the victim when she was chastised for it. There's just something so likeable about Shirley Booth that I'll watch the show again, after enough time has passed that I don't remember too many of the details of each episode.
It is interesting how you often see John Daly look up and to his right during contestants, and in this episode right at the end during the good nights to the panel. My assumption is that there was a clock that he was looking at that helped him to ensure that he was keeping the show on the right time
Galileocan g Yes, it's often very conspicuous when John is checking the studio clock, one of the very, very few area in which he was less than completely smooth, suave and professional. You'd think after enough years, someone would come up with the brilliant idea of putting a clock somewhere he could see it without it having to be so obvious. :)
What's My Line? I noticed at the end of one episode that John put his glasses on. I think he preferred not to wear his glasses on camera and thus had to squint at the clock to see how he was doing for time. Of course, he also didn't have the advantage of an earpiece keeping him in touch with the control room who could have given him verbal instructions and time checks.
ARLENE . . . . "THATS BECAUSE SHE'S ONLY 15 !" HAHAHAHAHA. SO FUNNY and Lawrence reaction was also so funny , love these shows and that's why I have about 40 of them in my collection. When I need cheering up I put on one of these episodes. I saw these shows that were live on TV when I was a teenager in the 50's; 10: 30 Sunday night. (I recorded them off the Game Channel and bought some . . . "The good old days !")

Totally agred, as a early 60s kid, and hopefully any yougner prson seeing these old shoes,. HAZEL imcluded, will feel the same..
I used that phrase too; 'comfort tv' . . . you always feel comfortable watching your favorite show.
I thought I was the only person . Who watched this and other programs for the same exact reason. ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

John Daly's over explanations crack me up, this show is pure gold
I've got it! Dorothy's hair reminds me of Cindy Lu Who from "How the Grinch Stole Christmas!"
What a great lady. I love the character of Hazel, so caring and loving of everyone. Shirley Booth is the best.
One of the greatest actresses of all time and this world is much worse off without her!!!!!
Shirley Booth was a fantastic lady and a great actress !!!!!
Booth sounds like such a lovely person.
"Hazel was the best" still watch it every day on Antenna TV!
The 1960s were a time when Americans were really something special !!!!!
@M M I Agree!!!!!
You can get antenna TV by an old fashioned
Outside antenna. They
Sell for $50. Screw cable. I get 38 channels for free !

It's April 2021 and it's still on. I watch it everyday.

Agreed! I ⌚ Come Back, Little Sheba for the first time ever this past weekend. Wonderful movie and Booth was so deserving of her Oscar that she won!
If you don't cry in the scene where she utters the title line, your heart is made of stone.
I certainly will look for come back little Shiba. Do you know where I might find come back little Shiba. Would I find it in a thrift store?
@@christinesammons8488 Christine, you can watch the full film ("Come Back, Little Sheba") on CZcams, for free. A wonderful picture from 1952.
It seems that Shirley Booth, Lucille Ball and Jayne Mansfield were the most popular mystery guests throughout the entire 17 years of the legendary show !
Good for them... pleasure for us !
You forgot Rosalind Russell 😊
There are several who were funnier, cleverer or more entertaining. Roz Russell, Irene Dunne, Art Carney, Jack Benny and Debbie Reynolds come to mind.
I love Shirley Booth. Love watching her on Hazel reruns on TV.
Love Dorothy's laugh! And love love Arlene! I never knew who these people are until these videos, I really fell in love Arlene and her personality, what a beautiful woman she was, Dorothy too.
Both ahead of their time in many ways. Classy & sassy
Shirley Booth was a genius and a wonderful person. Hedda Hopper was a SOW!
Hedda Hopper with no hat? Now that's rare
"That's because she's only 15." Arlene never misses.
Shirley Booth such a lovely person & actress. U must watch her in the movie "Come Back Little Sheba" w/ Burt Lancaster. Spectacular performances by both. Thank u for this upload of "What's My Line"

I had yet to be born at the time of this airing, but dang Steve Lawrence was gorgeous!!
I had to laugh at 20:46 when Shirley blurted out "Oh, you mean thing!" in the unique Booth voice. You've got to catch her in "Come Back, Little Sheba" if you haven't.
In that movie, she gave one of the greatest performances ever committed to film
Shirley was a great actress. She was advised to not do television by Burt Lancaster. She decided to go ahead and had great success and made money beyond what she had before. She loved the Show.
I only wish there were more movies on CZcams with Shirley Booth. I sure miss her.
Check out her 1966 tv performance in "The Glass Menagerie", with a young Hal Holbrook. It's exceptional.
In reference to Hedda Hopper's book "The Whole Truth And Nothing But":
Mrs. Hopper's publisher, Doubleday, was forced to recall all unsold copies of the first edition and issue a revised edition, which excised the libelous passage that Stewart Granger and Michael Wilding had been allegedly involved in a homosexual affair in the 1940s.

I think that Hopper and Doubleday also had to issue a public apology to both gentlemen - which Hopper did, grudgingly and with bad grace.
I see no wit or charm in that woman whatsoever. I wonder how she became so popular. Admittedly, I've never read her prose..
Wilding sued Hopper for her lies and won the case. Hopper is the predecessor to today's popular big-mouthed media windbags you see on FOX "News" who make millions pushing fabrications and gossip to gullibles. Like her successors, she was most frequently on the wrong side of the facts and history, including her prominent role in using her newspaper column and political connections to blacklist and slander scores of Americans in and out of Hollywood over her career.
Love Shirley Booth, she was tremendous in ''Come Back Little Sheba''...still watch ''Hazel'', every day!!!
Oh Arlene. I just laughed at her comment "Thats because she is only fifteen". She can be so bawdy. I bet she was hilarious at a party.
Amazing some of the lines she got away with, routinely, on a high profile live broadcast. She was the main person responsible, I feel, for creating that chic, cocktail party sort of atmosphere that's so much of what I love about WML.
What's My Line?
So true. Its that Rat Pack, tuxedo wearing feel of the 60's which I love. It seeped into every corner of culture.

silly and sophisticated , fun and gentle
Thank you so very much for these shows, better than anything on TV now! This is a perfect way to end a hellish day!
You're very welcome! Glad you can unwind with these shows. I find they're even the perfect way to end altogether non-hellish days. :)
Oh yes. most certainly!
@@WhatsMyLine absolutely! I feel so relaxed and nostalgic while watching these shows. Takes me back to a happier time in the world.
Shirley Booth will always have a piece of my heart (Hazel reminds me of my Mammaw!)
My big brother's 4th birthday and my mom would be about 8 weeks pregnant with me! Rest in peace bro, miss you and love you always!
my stomach hurts from laughing so much throughout this episode. I was 11 days old when this episode aired
Class act all the way better times better people!
so true!
And I feel so much better , and not just since I was already a kid back then.,,.
Dorothy WAS show business. She should know that Tallulah never was never even nominated for an Oscar! Shirley Booth was always a treat. She probably didn't have time to be on the panel. I think she would have done fine.
Dorothy knew a lot more about Broadway than Hollywood. But yeah, I was also surprised she got *that* wrong. Tallulah was in so few films, after all.

Shirley Booth was wonderful and made too few films. Loved her in 'The Matchmaker' pre 'Hello Dolly'.
Shirley Booth is Mrs Santa Claus to me. Great actress and voice so unique. God bless her.
Shirley Booth did a really good job at disguising her voice.
Hedda Hopper made a lot of appearances on this program.
Catch her interview with Cavett; she's great and so wise & funny
This Was one of the funniest WML shows I've seen! Arlene Francis' interaction with nose warmer entrepreneur,15 year old student was a "gem!"

Dorothy’s hair is like Pebbles on the Flintstones! Wonder if she thought it was stylish?
She so often gets it wrong . I think k she thinks it's cute. She has too small a head and body for a lot of those hairdos.
Wasn't there previously a pair of girls on from Virginia who made nose warmers? I remember one or both modeling them afterward (they were tied on with yarn).
Robert Melson 3/23/58 Two girls, one from Pa., one from Virginia, knitted nose warmers.
I remember them.
Booth's Voice, Inflection, Intonation, and Tambre here is EXTREMELY Relaxing and Asmry.. ☺️😊☺️☺️😅😂😅☺️😊☺️☺️☺️
Awe! Dorothy's wearing a bow :3
Shirley plugged Arlene's Billy Wilder picture "One Two Three,' Her costars were James Cagney and Horst Bucholtz.
I love Shirley Booth. While I have seen both Hazel and the movie of Come back Little Sheba it 's her role of Mrs. Claus in a Year Without a Santa Claus the is my all time favorite role she has done.
You need see her in "About Mrs. Leslie"
@@btinsley1 Great movie with Robert Ryan! I love the scene where they're having fish and chips in the little restaurant near the sea.
Shirley both seemed like an absolutely lovely person.

What a charming talented lady.
she was great as hazel and in my little sheba
Wonderful...I love this fabulous old show!!❤🌟
"It appears on another network, which must remain nameless because it's NBC". LOL
Class...
I love Ms. Booth!
Shirley Booth won an Oscar in 1952 and they didnt acknowledge it......that wouldnt happen today
They had acknowledged it in an earlier episode that she guested on, shortly after she won.
In a few months, Booth won her second Emmy award for "Hazel," defeating Lucille Ball {The Lucy Show], a young Mary Tyler Moore {the Dick Van Dyke Show], and Irene Ryan [The Beverly Hillbillies] All were fairly new or new programs.

Has anyone here seen Booth's performance in 'Come Back, Little Sheba'? for which she won an academy award in 1952? Truly stunning.
Why would Dorothy approve of anyone, even a contracted stylist, doing that to her head???
Lol 😂 it took me aback too! But, it was the style then...
I hated it. My mom fixed mine like that a few times when I was little.
She was always doing different hairstyles. And didn't always get it right.
Dorothy you have something flying in your hair!
VERY GOOD ONE! FUN
Shirley Booth looks like Buddy Hackett's sister. It's the close-set eyes.
Big hair Hedda.
MR LESLIE is my favorite Shirley Booth movie.
About Mrs. Leslie perhaps?
Any time I see Shirley Booth, I think of George Costanza's mother.
Lived a long life…94!
Peggy Goetz would be 70 years old by now .. wonder if she's ever seen this episode...
Good question! I've always been more interested in the "ordinary people" whose lines had to be guessed than in the Mystery Guests. Peggy Goetz, where are you?

Dorothy's arms look so thin, in a bad way, like if she was sick...
Hearing that JFK gave a little girl a bracelet with the PT boat there just brings tears to my eyes

What's My Line?
I noticed at the end of one episode that John put his glasses on. I think he preferred not to wear his glasses on camera and thus had to squint at the clock to see how he was doing for time. Of course, he also didn't have the advantage of an earpiece keeping him in touch with the control room who could have given him verbal instructions and time checks.
@@WhatsMyLine Maybe it should be above and behind the panel. Then it wouldn't be obvious.
Shirley Booth as Hazel
Before there was Berta there was Hazel. I remember😀
6:10 in "Try! 'n' Shut you up!" LEL. Say it like it is. Koop Dahvill said it.. "Class act". Hedda would have been a riot at parties.
ARLENE . . . . "THATS BECAUSE SHE'S ONLY 15 !" HAHAHAHAHA. SO FUNNY and Lawrence reaction was also so funny , love these shows and that's why I have about 40 of them in my collection. When I need cheering up I put on one of these episodes. I saw these shows that were live on TV when I was a teenager in the 50's; 10: 30 Sunday night. (I recorded them off the Game Channel and bought some . . . "The good old days !")
HH was always trying to "out" AP and TH in her column.
Who are AP and TH, pray tell. I am so curious! Thank you.
My goodness! Dorothy looks so svelte.
Love the shoutout to the foundations
May 1963. So the President in question was Kennedy.
I loved Hedda's response when Arlene guessed her😅.
Where is Hedda's hat?
At 8:10, contestant/entrepreneur Peggy Goetz.
Was John joking or really broke the rule when he said " I can't mention another network, because it's NBC"?
He does that so often lol. They always mention them😊.
I've noticed that John Daly gives the person away every once in awhile with his comment.
