Arlene Francis is introduced by Douglas as having spent a week with him on his show and opening at the Mount Tom Playhouse in Massachusetts in the new play "Mrs. Dally Has a Lover." When the play moved to Broadway in September 1965, the title was shortened to "Mrs. Dally." It ran 60 performances and earned a Drama Desk Award. It was produced by former "What's My Line" panelist Martin Gabel.
John Daly hosted the Miss Universe pageant in Miami the previous evening.
Ginger Rogers' and Carol Channing's names are already on the chalk board as they enter and they simply put a check mark in a box above their name.
Ginger Rogers and Carol Channing alternate answering in a squeaky, high pitched "Oui!" and "Non!" Bennett Cerf's wife is Rogers' niece, so when Cerf (not knowing it is two people) asks if she is related to his wife, Phyllis Fraser, Channing squeaks "Non!"
Cerf requests that the Channing and Rogers sing the last line of "Hello, Dolly!" together, which they do (in two vastly different keys). Carol credits Thornton Wilder (the playwright who created the character), Gower Champion (their director), and David Merrick (their producer) for their success.
