DVD Reviews of Groucho Marx Collection: You Bet Your Life
DVD Review: Info for the Fans
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm going to post this information for the people - like myself - trying to collect as many episodes as possible with as few duplicates. I've gone through and written the Secret Word and first set of guests from each episode in this collection (episodes had two or more sets of guests):
DISC ONE:
CHAIR with Carrol York and Emmanuel Klein
FACE with James Thompson and Joella York
FOOD with Irene Leff and Robert Beck
CHAIR with Kathleen Qualen and Ray "Crash" Corrigan
HAND with Mr. & Mrs. Pusis
HOUSE with Ula Anderson and Charles O'Brien Osbourne
CHAIR with Burt Stewart and Mrs. Edgar R. Hill
VOICE with Mr. & Mrs. Hal Keane
WATER with Sgt. & Mrs. Sylvester Nelson
CLOCK with Wanda Klumper and Roger Sharkey
WALL with Morrie Simon and Dean Cromwell
VOICE with Beverly Rubens and Charles Dressler
HEAD with Jan Dietrich and John Roese
FOOD with Barbara Schmidt and Mario Da Rey (05/13/55)
DOOR with Nina Kramer and Clarence Allen (02/21/52)
DISC TWO:
DOOR with Helen Swartz and Issac Kashdan
VOICE with Mamie Masara and Albert Hibbs
HAND with Barbara Ganz and Edward Higgins
NAME with Mary Bissell and C.S. Forrester (the author)
CHAIR with Constance Watt and Pat Celeone
NOSE with Kathy Smith and Alan Calew
SHOE with Charlie Hymstra and his daughter Rowena
MONEY with Joan Phillips and Monty Montana (and his horse)
VOICE with Carolyn Tyler and Brad Andriss
NOSE with Cornelia Hendricks and Romaine Fielding
HOUSE with Ginger & Don Drysdale (the baseball great)
GRASS with Seledor Crockett and Charles Snow
MONEY with Lois Wright-Bootson and Antonio Capazolo
CLOCK with Ann Riordan and Bill Eddies (02/18/54)
SKIN with Steve Wayne and Audrey Kaufman (03/02/1951)
I obviously had to guess on some of the spellings. As you can see a lot of the Secret Words are the same, making this very difficult to see what you already have in your collection. I had three other discs before I got this one and one of them had all the same ones on this set so I was able to give that one away. The two others had some duplicates but some not so I'm hanging on to those. Hopefully this will help some of you until bigger collections start getting released.
Description of Groucho Marx Collection: You Bet Your Life
Groucho Marx's quick wit and rapid one-liners-- along with his distinctive moustache, eyebrows, and ever-present cigar--made him one of the most famous, iconic comedians of all time! Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Gummo, and Zeppo-- collectively known as the Marx Brothers-- made some of the most popular comedies in American cinema including The Coconuts, Duck Soup, and A Night at the Opera.In 1947 Groucho began a radio show called You Bet Your Life, which spawned the TV series three years later. Groucho appeared, as himself, as emcee and star. The show's premise was simple: contestants sought to win up to $10,000 by correctly answering a sequence of four questions. If they unwittingly said a "secret word" they would win $100 bonus, delivered by a papier-mâché duck lowered from above. The best part of the show was the humor and banter Groucho ad-libbed with his contestants. You Bet Your Life ran for 11 years, making it one of the longest running shows in the history of television!
