I was born in the middle 50's, and had the chance to be exposed to the You Bet Your Life Television show, what a wonderful show! Many of the stars just starting out or not discovered yet, were the subject of the impeccable host Groucho Marx one line ad-libs, not to mention other people from all walks in life.
George Fenneman,the announcer and straight man for Groucho's antics really was a great off load character for Groucho.
I wish they would bring this program back in re-runs. Originally it was on channel 11, KPLR TV in St.Louis at 10:00 p.m. MOn-Fri..
Really I am a 60's on up fan of television, and some of the crap they have on now, couldn't hold a candle to the early days of television.
