Game Time: "Honey Halfwitch" meets "The Cookie Bear" and "Mufasa" (What's My Line, 1969)

 Well, if I had led with Shari Lewis' then-current voice-over gig as Princess Nida of The Arabian Knights, it may have been a little too obvious, and we will catch up with Honey Halfwitch another day. Anyway, Shari spent a week on What's My Line? in early 1969, seated between Soupy Sales and Bert Convy.

As you could probably guess from the subject line, our mystery guests are Janos Prohaska and James Earl Jones. Wally Bruner is the moderator.


Yes, Janos was the man behind the Cookie Bear from The Andy Williams Show, and anytime they needed a monster on another show, like, for example, Star Trek, they called for Janos, who also designed the costumes, as we would see in a demonstration after the game.
