The circumlocutions, discursiveness, equivocations, and euphemisms from Mister Daly are absolutely unique! They had a lady on whose job was managing a lie detector for use with small companies or for court appearances, and Bennett proclaimed, "If you used that on Daly, the machine would break!!" The look on John's face was PRICELESS!!
#2 was done during the final show. It was conceived as a last minute substitute in case a guest failed to show up on time and no one else was available. Since it was never used (they did come very close to using it once), they decided to use the bit during the last show.
One bit that I really liked, for a mystery guest question Dorothy asked, "I assume we established ice?" and Daly says, "Actually I believe it was established long before we got here!" Cue Daly being very pleased with himself. Also, Dorothy: Well, there aren't any lady conductors! Daly: You haven't ridden on the trolleys much. Cue Daly being very pleased with himself.
i'm sure a lot more...but you forgot his reaction to the question about if Lauren Bacall was a "glamour girl".......he said...:YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...in a very deep voice!!!!!...LOL
I don't know whether they would have gotten Steve Allen very quickly if Steve hadn't spoken in his own voice because Buddy Hackett and Arlene still kept their blindfolds on.
I’m trying to understand how Bennett Cerf knew so early on that John Daly was playing himself, unless it was merely case of him recognizing his voice, which I thought was disguised very well. This show had great cameramen, too.
A few years back, when GSN used to run the old B&W shows every night... and I watched, every night. It was clear that mister Cerf was smart. Really smart. Most of the panelist were smart.The show was smart oh for those days! I missed that we don't have smart TV shows and smart people on them anymore.

I’m 65 years old. I’ve seen many game shows over the years. For me, this show is waaay above the rest .
Great share!
Has there ever been a host like him, ever?

I keep watching these episodes over and over again!
I miss these guys badly.
And the times in which they starred.
#2 John Daley as the Mystery Guest was a 💎 gem.
Agreed.And when I realized what was happening I thought to myself what an awesome idea!
Mr Daly liked the ladies; I watch a lot of these old clips and that's what I think.

Thanks for these wonderful uploads. The Steve Allen incident was one of my favorite funny moments ever. Also John as mystery guest.
Great show. Thanks for the video.

Best game show ever on television.
GREAT SHOW!!!
I still the funniest moment was from the 10/4/64, the evening he let slip the mystery guest's name--Steve Allen. 🤣
i'm sure a lot more...but you forgot his reaction to the question about if Lauren Bacall was a "glamour girl".......he said...:YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...in a very deep voice!!!!!...LOL
John Charles Daly was so wonderful and so nice to see this hilarious moments.

Great job!
I’d like to know how Bennett Cerf knew so early on who it was when he said “I smell a rat.”

John Charles Daly did a great job disguising his voice.
See how there are no bleeps? This is television I want. MTV is garbage
Amen!
When entertainment had dignity and class
Mainly because this was aired live so they had to be careful not to let slip.
Francis is such a smart A
Yes, she is ❤
The quinessential master of circumlocution Mr John Charles Daily
No the we ne- uh he needs it was. No. Mistake 😂
This makes me sad..how much our country is in trouble now..God deliver us from this present evil regime
