[woman 2] Exquisite.

00:00:13,221 --> 00:00:17,392
How about, "Oh, my God"? Nobody said that?

-[woman 2] Oh, my God.
-Yeah, oh, that's good.

[man] She has appearedon very popular situation comedies.
13

Sue Ann, what are you doing?
14
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,664
I'm removing stubborn rust stains
from your sink.
15

Oh, Sophia, that smells heavenly.
16

Is it Chef Boyardee?
17
00:00:46,421 --> 00:00:48,882
[man] She had her owntalk-variety show
18
00:00:48,965 --> 00:00:50,550
in the early days of television,
19
00:00:50,675 --> 00:00:55,221
and she has been a hitin every venue through every decade
20
00:00:55,305 --> 00:00:57,849
in which she has worked in our business.
21
00:00:58,141 --> 00:00:59,017
I'm sorry, who?
22
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:00,018
Betty White.
23
00:01:00,101 --> 00:01:01,811
-Betty White.
-Betty White.
24
00:01:01,936 --> 00:01:02,854
[laughs]
25
00:01:02,937 --> 00:01:05,023
-Betty White.
-Betty White.
26
00:01:05,106 --> 00:01:06,941
[laughing]
27
00:01:07,025 --> 00:01:10,737
-It was Betty White.
-It was Betty, Betty, darling Betty White.
28
00:01:10,820 --> 00:01:13,948
[clicks tongue] Betty White.
Betty White, ladies and gentlemen.

00:01:17,869 --> 00:01:19,662
[people speaking indistinctly]
31
00:01:19,746 --> 00:01:21,790
This is one of those special nights
32
00:01:21,873 --> 00:01:25,835
when a community comes together and says,
"You did a good job."
33
00:01:25,919 --> 00:01:27,420
You did a good job, Betty White.
34
00:01:29,255 --> 00:01:30,507
-She's a long-distance runner.
-If you're that good--
35
00:01:30,590 --> 00:01:33,259
That's right. If you're that good,
you can survive.
36
00:01:34,677 --> 00:01:38,056
Longevity is a big deal.
Like, she's broken all the barriers.
37
00:01:38,139 --> 00:01:39,766
Now, she's in her 90s.
38
00:01:39,849 --> 00:01:41,643
There's nothing...
no barrier left to break.
39
00:01:44,312 --> 00:01:46,898
-It's so nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
40
00:01:46,981 --> 00:01:47,816
How are you?
41
00:01:48,066 --> 00:01:49,150
Right this way, ladies.
42
00:01:49,234 --> 00:01:52,237
-Big smile, big smile. Right on.
-[camera shutter clicks]
43
00:01:52,612 --> 00:01:55,573
[woman] Ladies and gentlemen,Ms. Betty White!
44
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:57,283
[all cheering and applauding]
45
00:02:01,538 --> 00:02:06,709
She's done so much amazing work.
She's unstoppable, I'm sure, right?
46
00:02:06,793 --> 00:02:07,794
[laughs]
47
00:02:08,586 --> 00:02:13,091
Well, this is a lovely, lovelysurprise tonight,
48
00:02:13,174 --> 00:02:17,428
and it's also a chancefor me to say thank you...
49
00:02:18,388 --> 00:02:22,851
for spoiling me rotten for so many years.
50
00:02:23,434 --> 00:02:25,937
I truly appreciate it,
51
00:02:26,020 --> 00:02:30,942
and it's just the best business to be in.
52
00:02:31,025 --> 00:02:34,821
She's been around forever.
What an amazing career.
53
00:02:35,196 --> 00:02:36,531
That's how she's influenced me.
54
00:02:36,823 --> 00:02:38,199
[all cheering, applauding]
55
00:02:42,537 --> 00:02:43,663
One of the things she always says,
56
00:02:43,746 --> 00:02:46,833
which I think is so interesting,
and I had never thought of it,
57
00:02:46,916 --> 00:02:51,462
"When you're a film star,
people see you on a great big screen,
58
00:02:51,546 --> 00:02:55,049
um, and they go somewhere,
and they pay to see you on the screen,
59
00:02:55,133 --> 00:02:58,469
and so those people feel
kind of untouchable."
60
00:02:58,553 --> 00:03:00,847
And she always says, you know,
"I've been in people's homes
61
00:03:01,139 --> 00:03:02,348
for 70 years,
62
00:03:02,432 --> 00:03:05,310
so people always feel like
I'm just accessible."
63
00:03:05,393 --> 00:03:07,854
She's this incredibly authentic,
64
00:03:07,937 --> 00:03:10,398
charming, talented, funny woman,
65
00:03:10,481 --> 00:03:12,984
and you can put somebody
66
00:03:13,067 --> 00:03:15,904
who's as multifaceted as Betty
in any situation,
67
00:03:15,987 --> 00:03:18,323
so because of that and by virtue of that,
she's always gonna be relevant,
68
00:03:18,406 --> 00:03:20,074
she's always gonna be,
you know, of the moment,
69
00:03:20,158 --> 00:03:23,244
and I think that's what
really makes her special.
70
00:03:23,328 --> 00:03:26,956
[all cheering, applauding]
71
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,376
We decided to, you know, make some moves
72
00:03:30,501 --> 00:03:32,712
and take some chances in her career.
73
00:03:33,004 --> 00:03:37,175
It really started taking off
when she guested
74
00:03:37,258 --> 00:03:42,222
on the William Shatner roast
for Comedy Central.
75
00:03:42,305 --> 00:03:44,599
Betty White, ladies and gentlemen.
76
00:03:44,682 --> 00:03:46,267
[all cheering]
77
00:03:50,104 --> 00:03:54,025
Roasts are very risqué at times,
78
00:03:54,108 --> 00:03:59,822
and they wrote a lot of material
that Betty decided to go with.
79
00:03:59,906 --> 00:04:02,158
But you look great.
80
00:04:02,242 --> 00:04:03,493
[chuckles softly]
81
00:04:03,576 --> 00:04:05,870
You know, they make one percent milk now.
82
00:04:05,954 --> 00:04:07,330
[all laugh]
83
00:04:14,587 --> 00:04:18,299
Darling, you were supposed
to explore the galaxy,
84
00:04:18,383 --> 00:04:19,717
not fill it.
85
00:04:19,801 --> 00:04:21,386
[all laughing]
86
00:04:22,428 --> 00:04:25,598
When people saw that,
I mean, it was, you know,
87
00:04:25,682 --> 00:04:28,059
a little jarring and then really funny
88
00:04:28,142 --> 00:04:29,727
because you saw that side of her
89
00:04:29,811 --> 00:04:31,729
that you don't get to see
very often, you know?
90
00:04:31,813 --> 00:04:32,772
Just a little sassy.
91
00:04:32,939 --> 00:04:35,275
She didn't shy away from it,
and from that,
92
00:04:35,525 --> 00:04:37,735
people saw a little different side
of Betty,
93
00:04:37,819 --> 00:04:39,362
and it opened things up.
94
00:04:39,445 --> 00:04:42,282
-[coach] Hut.
-[men grunting]
95
00:04:42,407 --> 00:04:44,158
[indistinct shouting]
96
00:04:44,867 --> 00:04:46,744
[grunts]
97
00:04:46,828 --> 00:04:48,413
[coach] Mike, come on!
98
00:04:48,496 --> 00:04:50,665
It was a different image of Betty White
99
00:04:50,748 --> 00:04:52,166
than we'd seen in the past, you know,
100
00:04:52,250 --> 00:04:54,252
like, the whole, you know,
"So's your old man,"
101
00:04:54,335 --> 00:04:56,004
or, "That's not what your
girlfriend said last night."
102
00:04:56,254 --> 00:04:58,256
-Mike, what is your deal, man?
-Oh, come on, man.
103
00:04:58,339 --> 00:04:59,716
You've been riding me all day.
104
00:04:59,799 --> 00:05:01,092
Mike, you're playing like
Betty White out there.
105
00:05:01,175 --> 00:05:02,468
That's not what your girlfriend said.
106
00:05:02,552 --> 00:05:04,095
-Baby!
-Whoa, whoa, whoa.
107
00:05:04,345 --> 00:05:10,351
She kind of got launched
into this pop-icon status, which--
108
00:05:10,435 --> 00:05:12,145
And then she was kind of doing everything.
109
00:05:12,228 --> 00:05:16,733
[all] Live from New York,
it's Saturday Night!
110
00:05:16,941 --> 00:05:18,359
[Witjas] There was a young man, I believe,
111
00:05:18,443 --> 00:05:20,695
in Austin, Texas,who started that campaign.
112
00:05:20,778 --> 00:05:24,407
He said he was driving along
one night in Texas,
113
00:05:24,490 --> 00:05:27,660
and he was thinking about Betty White.
I said, "How old are you?"
114
00:05:27,744 --> 00:05:29,746
The Facebook campaign went crazy,
115
00:05:29,829 --> 00:05:32,206
and then SNL obviously took it seriously.
116
00:05:32,290 --> 00:05:34,792
[Witjas] I talked to Lorne Michaels,and we found out, you know,
117
00:05:34,876 --> 00:05:37,420
who was gonna come back from the cast.
118
00:05:37,628 --> 00:05:40,298
Lorne was making it more
of a Mother's Day show,
119
00:05:40,631 --> 00:05:41,924
which was very special.
120
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:43,342
I've done SNL,
121
00:05:43,426 --> 00:05:44,677
and it's hard.
122
00:05:45,595 --> 00:05:48,806
[Witjas] Betty rehearsed vigorouslyall week.
123
00:05:48,890 --> 00:05:53,019
Thursday, Betty looks at me with a look
124
00:05:53,102 --> 00:05:55,480
that I've never seen before,
125
00:05:55,563 --> 00:05:57,648
and she says, "Never again."
126
00:05:57,732 --> 00:06:01,110
Maybe I pushed her a little too far
and a little too much,
127
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:03,905
because I was pushing her
out of her comfort zone,
128
00:06:03,988 --> 00:06:05,531
and then she said it.
129
00:06:05,615 --> 00:06:08,826
She looked, went right back
into the regular Betty White
130
00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:10,161
right after she said it.
131
00:06:10,244 --> 00:06:16,709
Stage fright is uncomfortable
and all that,
132
00:06:16,793 --> 00:06:21,589
but it's a life-saver,
because the panic that sets in
133
00:06:21,672 --> 00:06:23,257
you've got to counter,
134
00:06:23,341 --> 00:06:26,219
and you've got to get a handle on that
135
00:06:26,302 --> 00:06:29,180
in order to do what you're doing,
136
00:06:29,263 --> 00:06:34,227
so the stage fright is what puts the edge,
I think, on a performance.
137
00:06:34,310 --> 00:06:36,437
[man] Betty White!
138
00:06:37,563 --> 00:06:40,441
[Witjas] I sat back and said,"Hmm, maybe I pushed her. Maybe I did."
139
00:06:40,525 --> 00:06:42,235
But I said, "No, no,
she's still gonna deliver.
140
00:06:42,318 --> 00:06:43,277
She's gonna come through."
141
00:06:43,361 --> 00:06:46,864
I have so many people
to thank for being here,
142
00:06:46,948 --> 00:06:49,867
but I really have to thank Facebook.
143
00:06:49,951 --> 00:06:52,286
[all cheering, applauding]
144
00:06:54,789 --> 00:06:56,707
When I first heard about the campaign
145
00:06:56,791 --> 00:06:58,626
to get me to host Saturday Night Live,
146
00:06:58,709 --> 00:07:01,754
I didn't know what Facebook was.
147
00:07:01,838 --> 00:07:02,839
[all laugh]
148
00:07:02,922 --> 00:07:05,091
And now that I do know what it is,
149
00:07:05,174 --> 00:07:09,303
I have to say, it sounds like
a huge waste of time.
150
00:07:09,387 --> 00:07:11,973
[all cheering, applauding]
151
00:07:12,056 --> 00:07:15,059
I can't believe Betty did SNL at that age
152
00:07:15,143 --> 00:07:17,311
and not only did SNL at that age,
153
00:07:17,395 --> 00:07:19,355
but took the ball and knocked it
so far out of the park.
154
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:20,648
Bless their hearts.
155
00:07:20,731 --> 00:07:25,194
When I did it, they brought
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler,
156
00:07:25,278 --> 00:07:29,532
and they brought the original
wonderful people back,
157
00:07:29,615 --> 00:07:33,995
which gives you all that surrounding
with all those pros.

She's a lesbian.

[Tina Fey] I love Betty.

We got to do a week at SNL with Betty.

00:08:10,114 --> 00:08:12,742
and it was inspiring just to see, one,
175
00:08:12,825 --> 00:08:15,161
that her timing just rock-solid still.
176
00:08:15,411 --> 00:08:17,038
Uh, what is your last name, ma'am?
177
00:08:17,121 --> 00:08:19,165
Blarfingal.
178
00:08:20,249 --> 00:08:21,709
Can you spell that for me?
179
00:08:21,792 --> 00:08:23,753
S-M-I-T-H.
180
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,215
She grew up in live television.
181
00:08:27,298 --> 00:08:28,674
That's what she does,
182
00:08:28,758 --> 00:08:33,846
and even at 88,
she's going to love doing live television.
183
00:08:34,096 --> 00:08:35,515
She's Betty White.
184
00:08:35,723 --> 00:08:38,017
Florence, there's a tangy taste
in this muffin.
185
00:08:38,100 --> 00:08:39,185
Is that a cherry?
186
00:08:41,103 --> 00:08:45,441
No, no, my muffin hasn't had
a cherry since 1939.
187
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:48,903
[audience cheering, applauding]
188
00:08:49,862 --> 00:08:52,198
People think,
"Oh, well, poor old Betty White,
189
00:08:52,281 --> 00:08:54,158
she doesn't know what she's saying."
190
00:08:54,242 --> 00:08:55,117
[chuckles]
191
00:08:55,201 --> 00:08:57,537
Oh, yes, you do. [laughs]
192
00:08:57,662 --> 00:09:00,623
Her demographic sort of exploded.
193
00:09:00,706 --> 00:09:02,917
You know, all of a sudden,
there were kids who were five,
194
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,585
and people who were 95
195
00:09:04,669 --> 00:09:09,048
that just loved her across the board,
and she became "cool."
196
00:09:09,131 --> 00:09:14,971
All at once, this character actress
became a star,
197
00:09:15,054 --> 00:09:17,431
and what I find fascinating is that
198
00:09:17,515 --> 00:09:19,350
she's the only one who doesn't know it,
199
00:09:19,934 --> 00:09:22,812
because I don't think she ever
framed her life that way.
200
00:09:23,437 --> 00:09:27,024
Here with Hollywood legend
and Hollywood local Betty White.
201
00:09:27,108 --> 00:09:28,693
Betty, you grew up here in Hollywood.
202
00:09:28,776 --> 00:09:32,363
I came out when I was
a year and a half old. Uh--
203
00:09:32,446 --> 00:09:33,823
You moved out on your own then?
204
00:09:33,906 --> 00:09:38,578
No, no, I had a mother and father
who brought me out here,
205
00:09:38,661 --> 00:09:42,498
but I don't think California
was a state yet.
206
00:09:42,582 --> 00:09:44,375
-I think we were still a territory.
-[all laugh]
207
00:09:44,625 --> 00:09:46,085
Betty was an only child.
208
00:09:47,211 --> 00:09:49,130
Horace and Tess, her mom and dad.
209
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:54,427
Spoiled rotten
but taught to appreciate it.
210
00:09:55,428 --> 00:09:56,470
Oh, they were great.
211
00:09:56,846 --> 00:09:59,348
When I picked parents, I picked doozies.
212
00:10:00,099 --> 00:10:02,310
[Tony Fantozzi] Her motherwas a big influence on her,
213
00:10:02,393 --> 00:10:07,481
and her mother was
very, very astute lady, very funny.
214
00:10:07,565 --> 00:10:09,358
She was a cockeyed optimist.
215
00:10:10,943 --> 00:10:14,530
She always made the point that,if you look at those negatives,
216
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:16,532
you spoil all the good stuff,
217
00:10:16,616 --> 00:10:20,745
and it goes by, and it's gone,
and you haven't tasted it,
218
00:10:20,828 --> 00:10:23,581
and I really believe in that philosophy.

In Betty's own life,
224
00:10:40,431 --> 00:10:42,892
Jeanette MacDonaldwas everything for Betty.
225
00:10:43,184 --> 00:10:46,312
I didn't like Jeanette MacDonald.
226
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:49,857
I was Jeanette MacDonald.
227
00:10:50,566 --> 00:10:56,322
She was my idol of all, and Nelson Eddy.

almost as my mother and dad.
234
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:17,551
Betty actually began
doing a test for television in 1939.
235
00:11:17,843 --> 00:11:22,014
She wore her dress
from graduation in high school,
236
00:11:22,098 --> 00:11:25,101
and Betty sang a Jeanette MacDonald song,
237
00:11:25,184 --> 00:11:27,603
which is just, I think, amazing.
238
00:11:28,145 --> 00:11:34,151
[White] I was just luckythere was a local station, Channel 13,
239
00:11:34,235 --> 00:11:38,155
and I did a silly little song on the show,
240
00:11:39,156 --> 00:11:43,202
and a disc jockey, Al Jarvis,saw me, and he called me.
241
00:11:43,285 --> 00:11:45,329
He said, "I'm starting a television show,
242
00:11:45,413 --> 00:11:47,957
and I'd like you to be my girl Friday."
243
00:11:49,583 --> 00:11:53,087
And I said, "Oh, gee, that's--
Yes, of course!"
244
00:11:53,170 --> 00:11:56,507
And it turned out was Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday,
245
00:11:56,590 --> 00:11:57,967
Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
246
00:11:58,050 --> 00:12:01,762
We were on six days a week,five-and-a-half hours a day.
247
00:12:02,054 --> 00:12:03,431
She not only did an hour,
248
00:12:03,514 --> 00:12:05,433
she did a whole day on the coast.
249
00:12:05,516 --> 00:12:07,101
[laughing] Five hours or something.
250
00:12:07,184 --> 00:12:08,227
Nobody ever did that.
251
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:09,645
No script, no anything.
252
00:12:09,728 --> 00:12:11,814
It was like going to television college.
253
00:12:11,939 --> 00:12:13,149
It was wonderful.
254
00:12:13,274 --> 00:12:14,733
It was just wild.
255
00:12:14,817 --> 00:12:16,819
Whenever they wanted to do
some kind of a show,
256
00:12:16,902 --> 00:12:19,029
they'd say, "Well, how will we do this?"
257
00:12:19,113 --> 00:12:20,823
I said, "Just do it."
258
00:12:21,073 --> 00:12:23,117
Al Jarvis hadn't done
any television, either.
259
00:12:23,451 --> 00:12:25,578
Al Jarvis was a radio DJ.
260
00:12:25,661 --> 00:12:29,248
[White] He just thought he would movehis radio show to television,
261
00:12:29,331 --> 00:12:30,708
so we'd put on the records,
262
00:12:30,791 --> 00:12:33,252
and, oh, the phones would blow up,
263
00:12:33,335 --> 00:12:35,087
and people would write and say,
264
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:36,464
"We don't know what you're talking.
265
00:12:36,547 --> 00:12:38,257
We see you talking, and we can't hear you.
266
00:12:38,340 --> 00:12:39,842
We can hear the records on the radio.
267
00:12:39,925 --> 00:12:41,385
We want to know
what you're talking about."
268
00:12:41,469 --> 00:12:44,346
So after the first week,
they deep-sixed the records.
269
00:12:45,055 --> 00:12:49,810
We thought, "Well, what'll we do now
with no records to play?" [laughs]
270
00:12:49,894 --> 00:12:51,729
Doing that much live television
271
00:12:51,812 --> 00:12:54,732
for that long gives you a skill set.
272
00:12:54,815 --> 00:12:56,400
I mean, she had to start
with that skill set.
273
00:12:56,484 --> 00:12:57,818
Let's be real.
274
00:12:57,902 --> 00:13:01,697
But she honed it
in those four years really quite well.
275
00:13:01,864 --> 00:13:05,242
Whoever came to town
would come through our show.
276
00:13:05,326 --> 00:13:09,038
It was the only game in town,
and you'd meet everybody.
277
00:13:09,121 --> 00:13:11,290
It became very successful.
278
00:13:12,917 --> 00:13:15,878
Don Fedderson, the manager of the station,
279
00:13:15,961 --> 00:13:18,214
called us in and said,
280
00:13:18,297 --> 00:13:20,382
"That little husband-and-wife thingthat you do,
281
00:13:20,466 --> 00:13:23,802
could you make that into a series?"
282
00:13:24,803 --> 00:13:27,848
In my wisdom,I really was on top of everything.
283
00:13:27,932 --> 00:13:29,767
I said, "Well, it won't work.
284
00:13:30,184 --> 00:13:33,395
We do them like anecdotes thata husband and wife will tell,
285
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:34,647
you know, in an evening,
286
00:13:34,730 --> 00:13:37,358
but if you stretch that into a half hour,
287
00:13:37,441 --> 00:13:38,651
it goes flat in the middle.
288
00:13:38,734 --> 00:13:40,819
No, it won't work."
289
00:13:41,153 --> 00:13:43,531
Well, he said, "Try it." So we did.
290
00:13:43,614 --> 00:13:46,158
That was my first series,
[chuckling] Life with Elizabeth.
291
00:13:47,409 --> 00:13:51,121
[narrator reading]
292
00:13:53,499 --> 00:13:55,876
[applause]
293
00:13:57,294 --> 00:13:59,171
Incident number one
in the Life of Elizabeth
294
00:13:59,255 --> 00:14:02,049
occurs every time
she and Alvin play a game,
295
00:14:02,132 --> 00:14:05,010
like checkers, gin rummy, or chess.
296
00:14:05,302 --> 00:14:07,972
Life With Elizabeth, we did that in...
297
00:14:08,055 --> 00:14:10,349
[inhales] ...the early '50s,
298
00:14:11,475 --> 00:14:14,270
did it live at the Beverly Hills Theater,
299
00:14:14,353 --> 00:14:16,480
a local movie house now,
300
00:14:16,605 --> 00:14:18,732
but we used to do television shows there.
301
00:14:18,941 --> 00:14:21,527
All these shows were L-I-V-E.
302
00:14:21,610 --> 00:14:24,488
The red light came on,
and you went on for 30 minutes.
303
00:14:25,114 --> 00:14:27,283
It was great, great fun.
304
00:14:27,366 --> 00:14:29,243
-Dime says I hit it.
-Okay, you got a bet.
305
00:14:29,326 --> 00:14:30,661
Hey, wait a minute. Hit what? Wait.
306
00:14:30,744 --> 00:14:32,329
-[thud]
-That fence.
307
00:14:32,413 --> 00:14:33,914
-Pay up.
-Oh, no.
308
00:14:33,998 --> 00:14:36,959
You picked out your target
after you hit it.
309
00:14:37,042 --> 00:14:39,295
Well, if you're stupid enough
to make a bet like that,
310
00:14:39,378 --> 00:14:41,171
that's your lookout.
311
00:14:41,255 --> 00:14:42,631
Dime says I hit that tree.
312
00:14:42,715 --> 00:14:44,550
Yeah, that's more like it. Which tree?
313
00:14:44,633 --> 00:14:45,801
-Wait.
-[thuds]
314
00:14:45,885 --> 00:14:47,386
-That one.
-Oh.
315
00:14:48,846 --> 00:14:51,056
Nobody remembers Life With Elizabeth.
316
00:14:51,140 --> 00:14:53,434
They weren't born when
Life With Elizabeth was on.
317
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:56,478
George Tibbles, and I produced it,
318
00:14:56,562 --> 00:15:01,317
and we had about $1.95
for a budget for each show.
319
00:15:01,775 --> 00:15:04,111
We played againstsort of a flat background.
320
00:15:04,194 --> 00:15:07,239
We had a couch and a coupleof living room chairs.
321
00:15:07,323 --> 00:15:08,866
You never knew what was gonna happen.
322
00:15:08,949 --> 00:15:10,743
You never knew when a camera
was gonna break,
323
00:15:10,826 --> 00:15:13,579
when a film was gonna break,
when you'd have to go out and stand there
324
00:15:13,662 --> 00:15:16,165
and talk for five minutes
just to fill air time.
325
00:15:17,416 --> 00:15:20,210
[Mikelas] The audience for hershow was up above.
326
00:15:20,294 --> 00:15:23,005
Climbing that ladder to talkto them was part of her warm-up.
327
00:15:23,088 --> 00:15:25,090
She did the warm-up for her own show
328
00:15:25,174 --> 00:15:26,508
to get them engaged and going,
329
00:15:26,592 --> 00:15:28,344
and how cool is that?
330
00:15:30,179 --> 00:15:34,350
[White] NBC had seen the local talk show.
331
00:15:35,184 --> 00:15:39,188
They said, "Do you think, Betty,
could you do--
332
00:15:39,271 --> 00:15:42,191
It's a half-hour every single day.
333
00:15:42,274 --> 00:15:44,026
That's five days a week.
334
00:15:44,109 --> 00:15:46,570
Do you think you could sustain that?"
335
00:15:47,613 --> 00:15:50,449
And I thought, "What am I gonnado with the rest of the time?
336
00:15:50,532 --> 00:15:53,369
I'd been five and a hours a daysix days a week.
337
00:15:54,036 --> 00:15:55,704
[laughing] Only a half-hour a day?
338
00:15:55,788 --> 00:15:57,414
What do we do with the rest of the day?"
339
00:15:59,833 --> 00:16:01,835

00:16:19,561 --> 00:16:20,646
and we'd interview people.
346
00:16:21,689 --> 00:16:25,150
We had a live band, Frank De Voland his orchestra.
347
00:16:25,234 --> 00:16:26,652
We would do live commercials.
348
00:16:26,735 --> 00:16:27,987
It was before tape.
349
00:16:28,070 --> 00:16:30,030
You didn't have anythingyou could cut away to a commercial.
350
00:16:30,114 --> 00:16:33,117
You were on, and you weredoing the commercials.
351
00:16:33,409 --> 00:16:37,037
In just two tablespoons,
just this little bit contains
352
00:16:37,121 --> 00:16:39,623
twice the iron
in a pound of calves' liver.
353
00:16:39,707 --> 00:16:41,667
I thought she was a great talent,
354
00:16:41,750 --> 00:16:44,461
being able to deliver a commercial,
355
00:16:44,545 --> 00:16:48,382
to sing, and to do interviews and whatnot.
356
00:16:48,465 --> 00:16:49,883
She was just magnificent.
357
00:16:50,426 --> 00:16:54,596
And she believed everything she saidand did on the show.
358
00:16:55,014 --> 00:16:57,599
I had this wonderful dancer,
Arthur Duncan.
359
00:16:57,683 --> 00:16:59,852
Arthur, did you have a nice weekend?
360
00:16:59,935 --> 00:17:01,854
Sure did.
I did something a little different.
361
00:17:01,937 --> 00:17:04,815
I rehearsed with a choral group
362
00:17:04,898 --> 00:17:08,485
that's going to do Christmas carols
this Christmas.
363
00:17:08,569 --> 00:17:11,280
Oh, wonderful. You're going around
from house to house or--
364
00:17:11,363 --> 00:17:14,158
I think their plan is to go to hospitals
365
00:17:14,241 --> 00:17:17,786
and orphanages and things of that nature.
366
00:17:17,870 --> 00:17:19,455
Well, that's a wonderful thing to do
367
00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:20,956
for a Christmas season, Arthur.
368
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:26,795
The first TV show I'd ever been on,
369
00:17:26,879 --> 00:17:30,507
and I credit Betty White
for really getting me
370
00:17:30,591 --> 00:17:34,136
started in show business, in television.
371
00:17:34,595 --> 00:17:36,764
Arthur's all set for his number today.
372
00:17:36,847 --> 00:17:38,223
This is a fine number for him to do
373
00:17:38,307 --> 00:17:40,893
when he was rehearsing Christmas carols
all day yesterday.
374
00:17:40,976 --> 00:17:43,520
Arthur Duncan and "Sing You Sinners."
375

Well, by now, we were national,
and we were all over the country,
382
00:18:02,873 --> 00:18:07,461
and all through the South,
there was this whole ruckus.
383
00:18:07,544 --> 00:18:10,631
They didn't-- They were going
to take our show off the air
384
00:18:10,714 --> 00:18:13,509

[Duncan] People in the South,some of them resented me
388
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,103
being on the show
and wanted me thrown out,
389
00:18:24,186 --> 00:18:28,774
and it was never a question at all.
390
00:18:28,857 --> 00:18:32,736
Evidently through the South at that point,
it was a very heavy thing.
391
00:18:32,820 --> 00:18:36,657
So I said, "I'm sorry,
but, you know, he stays, or--
392
00:18:36,740 --> 00:18:37,991
Live with it."

Oh, Arthur, that was just tremendous.
398
00:18:56,468 --> 00:18:57,928
Everybody was really going with that one.
399
00:19:00,180 --> 00:19:03,600
I was thrilled to beone of the first female producers,
400
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:07,771
and Betty Turbiville was one ofthe very first female directors.
401
00:19:09,148 --> 00:19:12,484
That was so before the women's movement
402
00:19:12,568 --> 00:19:14,820
that I don't think we even thought of it.
403
00:19:14,903 --> 00:19:18,824
I never even thought of it being
a different gender, you know?
404
00:19:18,907 --> 00:19:20,993
It was just you did whatever the job was
405
00:19:21,076 --> 00:19:22,536
and whatever job you could get.
406
00:19:22,911 --> 00:19:24,288
[Reiner] She's one of the pioneers.
407
00:19:25,414 --> 00:19:29,209
A lot of us are here because
she was there at the beginning.
408
00:19:29,293 --> 00:19:32,171
She set the standard.
She set the way for many people.
409
00:19:32,254 --> 00:19:34,381
She came with all the tools.
410
00:19:34,464 --> 00:19:39,678
She knew everything about production.
411
00:19:39,761 --> 00:19:44,308
She was able to discuss
any aspect of the script
412
00:19:44,391 --> 00:19:46,476
or the lighting or the sound,
413
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,105
so it was natural for her,and she loved it.
414
00:19:50,189 --> 00:19:52,608
That's where somebody who's been
in the business forever
415
00:19:52,691 --> 00:19:53,817
and is a producer and all this--
416
00:19:53,901 --> 00:19:55,152
So she knows--
417
00:19:55,569 --> 00:19:59,573
You know, she knows
how to take all that she is
418
00:19:59,656 --> 00:20:00,490
and make it brilliant.
419
00:20:01,116 --> 00:20:04,119
-[man] Here comes trouble.
-[woman] Yes.
420
00:20:04,203 --> 00:20:05,662
-Hello.
-How are you?
421
00:20:05,746 --> 00:20:08,040
I'm fine. A little damp, but I'm fine.
422
00:20:08,123 --> 00:20:09,708
Ooh, it is something, isn't it?
423
00:20:09,791 --> 00:20:11,043
Very damp.
424
00:20:13,086 --> 00:20:14,755
[Mikelas] I try to keep it light.
425
00:20:14,838 --> 00:20:15,839
Are they ready for us?
426
00:20:15,923 --> 00:20:17,174
If she's a little bit nervous
427
00:20:17,257 --> 00:20:18,800
because it's a new set or something.
428
00:20:19,635 --> 00:20:21,845
-How you doing?
-How you doing, sweetie?
429
00:20:22,262 --> 00:20:24,181
I'm kind of an anchor
in that I'm familiar,
430
00:20:24,264 --> 00:20:26,475
so at least she can look to me
and know one person.
431
00:20:26,558 --> 00:20:28,352
You're doing good. It's funny.
432
00:20:28,435 --> 00:20:30,479
You're funny,
but keep your clothes on, please.
433
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:33,815
Listen, you, I'm trying to get a date.
434
00:20:33,899 --> 00:20:36,902
-You're ruining my mojo.
-[laughs]
435
00:20:36,985 --> 00:20:39,029
She likes to run lines in between scenes.
436
00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:41,657
"But if they both were single
on their 95th birthdays,
437
00:20:41,740 --> 00:20:43,742
which is today, they'd meet here."
438
00:20:43,825 --> 00:20:44,910
And then that's it.
439
00:20:44,993 --> 00:20:46,912
That's your only line in this one.
440
00:20:46,995 --> 00:20:49,081
I'm just there to help run it
and run it and run it
441
00:20:49,164 --> 00:20:52,376
so that she's sure
when the camera goes, she's ready.
442
00:20:52,459 --> 00:20:55,545
So has an old guy named Bernie
knocked on the door?
443
00:20:56,004 --> 00:20:57,839
And if he did, how does he look?
444
00:20:58,590 --> 00:21:01,009
'Cause in '97, he was jacked.
445
00:21:01,093 --> 00:21:04,096
[all laugh]
446
00:21:04,179 --> 00:21:07,224
She's a living legend,
and she's right there,
447
00:21:07,307 --> 00:21:08,558
and they'll all tell you.
448
00:21:08,642 --> 00:21:11,645
They learn so much just watching her,doing a scene with her.
449
00:21:12,688 --> 00:21:13,647
[man] Action.
450
00:21:13,730 --> 00:21:15,732
Here, I brought you some chocolates.
451
00:21:15,816 --> 00:21:17,901
[all laugh]
452
00:21:18,110 --> 00:21:20,028
Thank God, he's still jacked!
453
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:22,155
[all laugh]
454
00:21:23,699 --> 00:21:28,078
[Sullivan] When you think aboutwhat makes a great ensemble actress,
455
00:21:28,161 --> 00:21:31,456
it's someone who can leave
their ego at the door,
456
00:21:32,165 --> 00:21:34,418
and it's someone who is always there
457
00:21:34,501 --> 00:21:37,921
in support of the other actress or actor.
458
00:21:39,089 --> 00:21:42,175
[White] One Saturday morning,the phone rang, and it was Mary.
459
00:21:42,259 --> 00:21:44,761
She said, "Would you do
a guest shot on my show?"
460
00:21:45,053 --> 00:21:49,725
Of course, she had to coax,
as you can imagine.
461
00:21:49,808 --> 00:21:52,602
Oh, God, she was just so innately funny
462
00:21:52,686 --> 00:21:55,981
and so full and rich
in everything she did.
463
00:21:56,064 --> 00:21:59,234
She had so much energy inside her,
464
00:21:59,318 --> 00:22:04,406
and she just jumped into any scene
that she was put in.
465
00:22:05,657 --> 00:22:07,659
[laughing] Of course.
466
00:22:09,202 --> 00:22:11,621
Somebody forgot to plug in the oven.
467
00:22:13,248 --> 00:22:15,083
Well, I guess that just goes to show
468
00:22:15,167 --> 00:22:16,793
that anybody can make a mistake,
469
00:22:16,877 --> 00:22:18,628
even your Happy Homemaker.
470
00:22:19,212 --> 00:22:20,547
Now, don't you go away.
471
00:22:20,630 --> 00:22:23,759
We'll be right back
after this commercial message.
472
00:22:24,134 --> 00:22:25,510
-[man] All clear.
-All right.
473
00:22:25,594 --> 00:22:27,596
Who the hell is responsible for this?
474
00:22:28,555 --> 00:22:32,309
Sue Ann Nivens was--
She was the Happy Homemaker.
475
00:22:32,392 --> 00:22:34,895
She had a television show.
476
00:22:35,103 --> 00:22:39,191
She could do anything in the kitchen,
I mean, anything--
477
00:22:39,274 --> 00:22:42,152
She was just the master of everything
478
00:22:42,235 --> 00:22:44,571
in the homemaking department.
479
00:22:44,654 --> 00:22:47,074
Do try a little iodine
for that scratch on the desk,
480
00:22:47,157 --> 00:22:48,366
and baking soda will bring
481
00:22:48,450 --> 00:22:50,035
that grease up out of the carpet
like nothing.
482
00:22:50,118 --> 00:22:53,205
Oh, dear, dear, don't throw away
those coffee grounds.
483
00:22:53,288 --> 00:22:55,457
They're the perfect plant food
for Mary's geraniums.
484
00:22:55,540 --> 00:22:59,127
When Val left as Rhoda,
when Betty came in,
485
00:22:59,211 --> 00:23:00,837
there was a whole new relationship
486
00:23:00,921 --> 00:23:04,382
for Mary and Sue Ann Nivens
that really worked.
487
00:23:04,466 --> 00:23:06,843
Sometimes I think I drive myself too hard,
488
00:23:07,052 --> 00:23:09,638
but there's so much to be done
with so little--
489
00:23:09,721 --> 00:23:10,764
Talent.
490
00:23:12,349 --> 00:23:13,683
So little time.
491
00:23:13,767 --> 00:23:16,561
After all, life is so brief
and impermanent,
492
00:23:16,645 --> 00:23:18,021
much like your hair.
493
00:23:19,606 --> 00:23:22,776
Sue Ann, I was able to show another side
494
00:23:22,859 --> 00:23:27,739
that was kind of fun
and a little lecherous, a little mean.
495
00:23:27,823 --> 00:23:30,033
Oh, she emasculated Murray
on that one show
496
00:23:30,117 --> 00:23:31,743
if you saw that about marriage.
497
00:23:31,910 --> 00:23:33,328
He had to wear a dress.
498
00:23:33,912 --> 00:23:35,288
This is embarrassing.
499
00:23:35,789 --> 00:23:37,374
I mean, it's humiliating.
500
00:23:37,457 --> 00:23:39,084
Look, I told you I've got a lunch date.
501
00:23:39,167 --> 00:23:41,169
[chuckling] Oh,
you can go to lunch anytime.
502
00:23:41,378 --> 00:23:43,755
How often do you get a chance
to wear a wedding gown?
503
00:23:45,757 --> 00:23:49,302
She can deliver a line like nobody,
504
00:23:49,386 --> 00:23:52,139
and they created that character,
505
00:23:52,222 --> 00:23:54,808
and she did that whole dimples thing.
506
00:23:54,891 --> 00:23:58,895
She also had a little problem
that she liked men,
507
00:23:58,979 --> 00:24:02,107
any men, anybody's men.
508
00:24:02,190 --> 00:24:07,112
She just liked men, and that was sort of
509
00:24:07,487 --> 00:24:09,281
what made the character kind of fun.
510
00:24:09,364 --> 00:24:10,615
You'll have to excuse me.
511
00:24:10,699 --> 00:24:11,992
I promised Georgette
512
00:24:12,075 --> 00:24:14,327
-that I would select the wine for dinner.
-Oh, sure.
513
00:24:14,411 --> 00:24:16,580
Oh, incidentally, Mr. Van Dillen,
514
00:24:16,663 --> 00:24:18,498
you are the most gorgeous hunk of flesh
515
00:24:18,582 --> 00:24:19,958
I have ever seen.
516
00:24:23,461 --> 00:24:25,213
You value that writing.
517
00:24:25,297 --> 00:24:26,798
You never take it for granted
518
00:24:26,882 --> 00:24:28,675
because it doesn't happen that often.
519
00:24:28,884 --> 00:24:31,011
Mary, this is a marvelous party,
520
00:24:31,094 --> 00:24:33,680
and the cheese puffs are delicious.
521
00:24:33,930 --> 00:24:35,682
Sue Ann, you made the cheese puffs.
522
00:24:36,933 --> 00:24:38,518
[laughing] Oh, did I?
523
00:24:40,312 --> 00:24:42,355
My memory must be beclouded
524
00:24:42,439 --> 00:24:45,108
by this mediocre
little off-year champagne.
525
00:24:46,860 --> 00:24:49,696
The show was written so brilliantly
526
00:24:49,779 --> 00:24:52,616
that everybody had their time to shine.
527
00:24:52,782 --> 00:24:54,993
Anybody like an hors d'oeuvre?
528
00:24:55,243 --> 00:24:57,454
I wouldn't recommend the cheese puffs.
529
00:24:58,622 --> 00:24:59,873
People keep tasting them
530
00:24:59,956 --> 00:25:01,791
and then putting them in the ashtray.
531
00:25:04,377 --> 00:25:06,671
When writing is really good
532
00:25:06,755 --> 00:25:09,466
like it was on Mary Tyler Moore,
533
00:25:09,549 --> 00:25:12,344
it's so much more interesting
to the audience
534
00:25:12,427 --> 00:25:15,513
to find the backgrounds
of all the different characters.
535
00:25:15,597 --> 00:25:18,266
They discover that she had this...
536
00:25:18,350 --> 00:25:20,727
like, a triple king-size bed.
537
00:25:23,813 --> 00:25:27,484
Sue Ann, you remember Ted
from the newsroom?
538
00:25:28,652 --> 00:25:29,861
Of course.
539
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:31,613
How have you been, Ted?
540
00:25:31,863 --> 00:25:34,074
Oh, swell, swell, Sue Ann.
541
00:25:34,157 --> 00:25:36,117
All of a sudden, Ted is there
542
00:25:36,201 --> 00:25:38,036
straightening his tie in the ceiling.
543
00:25:39,621 --> 00:25:40,747
Whoa.
544
00:25:41,581 --> 00:25:44,584
What a great bedroom, Sue Ann.
545
00:25:47,128 --> 00:25:48,838
[imperceptible]
546
00:25:55,011 --> 00:25:59,599
So, you know the whole thing
is mirrored up there. [laughs]
547
00:25:59,933 --> 00:26:00,976
It was funny.
548
00:26:01,142 --> 00:26:03,270
You had to tune in week to week, you know,
549
00:26:03,353 --> 00:26:04,854
to see what everybody was gonna do,
550
00:26:04,938 --> 00:26:06,856
and she created some of those characters
551
00:26:06,940 --> 00:26:09,985
where you always wanted to see
what Sue Ann was gonna do
552
00:26:10,068 --> 00:26:11,361
or what Rose was gonna do.
553
00:26:11,736 --> 00:26:14,322
Were you shocked
when they said, "Now, Betty,
554
00:26:14,406 --> 00:26:16,491
we've got this wonderful series for you.
555
00:26:16,574 --> 00:26:18,827
We want you to be
one of the Golden Girls."
556
00:26:19,286 --> 00:26:20,787
-Did you--
-Well, all I was thinking,
557
00:26:20,870 --> 00:26:22,622
all that time in makeup, you know,
558
00:26:22,706 --> 00:26:24,374
trying to put on the age makeup
and everything, but--
559
00:26:24,457 --> 00:26:27,502
-I know, isn't that--
-[all laughing]
560
00:26:30,505 --> 00:26:32,632
Betty White was one of the few people
561
00:26:32,716 --> 00:26:35,302
who walks into the room, and you know her.
562
00:26:35,385 --> 00:26:37,887
You've known her all your life
for some reason.
563
00:26:37,971 --> 00:26:41,808
She's one of those people
always welcome to any show she's in,
564
00:26:41,891 --> 00:26:44,144
from The Golden Girls to--
565
00:26:44,227 --> 00:26:48,732
She's just one of those people,
and she's funny.
566
00:26:48,815 --> 00:26:51,901
I'll never forget the time they sang
at our annual talent show
567
00:26:51,985 --> 00:26:53,778
right after the herring juggling act.
568
00:26:54,696 --> 00:26:55,947
You mean to tell me
569
00:26:56,031 --> 00:26:58,575
that somebody actually juggled herring?
570
00:26:58,700 --> 00:27:00,201
No!
571
00:27:00,452 --> 00:27:02,662
It was the herring who did the juggling.
572
00:27:04,914 --> 00:27:06,499
Tiny little Ginsu knives.
573
00:27:08,001 --> 00:27:09,878
Really very dangerous.
574
00:27:09,961 --> 00:27:12,589
I mean, one false move,
they could've filleted themselves.
575
00:27:14,841 --> 00:27:18,094
Growing up, uh, Betty White
made me want to live in Florida,
576
00:27:18,178 --> 00:27:19,888
watching The Golden Girls.
577
00:27:19,971 --> 00:27:24,225
I've always loved, loved The Golden Girls,
578
00:27:24,309 --> 00:27:28,021
and, you know, it was one of
the staple sitcoms when I was a kid,
579
00:27:28,104 --> 00:27:30,273
and it was something
that I was sort of raised with,
580
00:27:30,357 --> 00:27:32,400
and I loved that gang.
581
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:34,569
I think I spent probably from the time
582
00:27:34,652 --> 00:27:37,447
that I was about
six years old, seven years old,
583
00:27:37,530 --> 00:27:39,240
watching The Golden Girls
with my grandmother,
584
00:27:39,324 --> 00:27:41,493
and so, you know, I felt like Betty
585
00:27:41,576 --> 00:27:43,953
sort of grew up with me in some weird way.
586
00:27:44,037 --> 00:27:48,625
Rose, is this another one of those
Scandinavian Viking concoctions?
587
00:27:48,708 --> 00:27:49,793
Yes!
588
00:27:50,877 --> 00:27:52,962
It's called genuckenflugen cake.
589
00:27:55,965 --> 00:27:59,302
It's an ancient recipe,
but I Americanized it.
590
00:27:59,386 --> 00:28:01,596
Yeah, so one might say
you brought geflurkenurken
591
00:28:01,679 --> 00:28:03,098
into the '80s?
592
00:28:04,599 --> 00:28:08,228
Yes, but I'm not one
to blow my own vetubenflugen.
593
00:28:10,271 --> 00:28:12,774
And I fell in love with her. I loved Rose.
594
00:28:12,857 --> 00:28:15,151
Rose didn't have a mean bone in her body.
595
00:28:15,235 --> 00:28:18,655
Golden Girls, like, you know,
any other great, epic,
596
00:28:18,738 --> 00:28:22,409
iconic show or film,
is a love story, you know?
597
00:28:22,492 --> 00:28:25,203
And it's a love story between
these four elderly ladies
598
00:28:25,286 --> 00:28:28,331
living in Florida, and they've all,
lived their lives to the fullest,
599
00:28:28,415 --> 00:28:31,918
and they continue to do so,
and they do it as a love story.
600
00:28:32,001 --> 00:28:33,294
Four points of a compass.
601
00:28:33,378 --> 00:28:38,800
There was Rue,
who was the beautiful, sexy.
602
00:28:38,883 --> 00:28:41,010
Rose, what was your
first impression of me?
603
00:28:42,512 --> 00:28:44,931
I thought you wore too much makeup
and were a slut.
604
00:28:45,014 --> 00:28:46,099
[chuckles]
605
00:28:51,855 --> 00:28:54,607
I was wrong.
You don't wear too much makeup.
606
00:28:56,317 --> 00:28:59,821
Bea Arthur was the tall, strong,
607
00:28:59,904 --> 00:29:03,158
not always easy character.
608
00:29:03,450 --> 00:29:05,493
-Spanish fly is not a fly?
-No.
609
00:29:05,577 --> 00:29:06,745
-What is it?
-It's a beetle.
610
00:29:07,162 --> 00:29:08,872
They call it a fly,
but it's really a beetle?
611
00:29:08,955 --> 00:29:11,207
-Yes.
-How do they know it's Spanish?
612
00:29:11,499 --> 00:29:13,835
Because it wears a little sombrero, Rose.
613
00:29:14,961 --> 00:29:19,841
And Estelle Getty,
the older woman who was a dynamite.
614
00:29:19,924 --> 00:29:22,802
-You're awfully cranky today.
-Well, forgive me.
615
00:29:22,886 --> 00:29:24,387
My arthritis is bothering me.
616
00:29:24,471 --> 00:29:26,598
My Social Security check was late,
617
00:29:26,681 --> 00:29:29,934
and I realized today I haven't
showered with a man in 22 years.
618
00:29:31,519 --> 00:29:34,063
The writers were so phenomenal.
619
00:29:34,147 --> 00:29:37,609
They blended those characters together
620
00:29:37,692 --> 00:29:41,488
and rounded the edges off,
so we all fit like that.
621
00:29:41,571 --> 00:29:46,159
Those girls were so talented
at just simply flashing a look
622
00:29:46,284 --> 00:29:49,078
that would ride a wave of laughter
off to the next look.
623
00:29:49,412 --> 00:29:53,666
I mean, Stan and I went through a period
where we had no marital relations at all.
624
00:29:53,958 --> 00:29:55,960
I totally cut off his sex.
625
00:29:56,252 --> 00:29:57,587
You mean it grows back?
626
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,512
And then it would ride
another wave of laughter
627
00:30:05,595 --> 00:30:08,223
when, you know,
Rue would look at someone else,
628
00:30:08,306 --> 00:30:10,099
and then Betty would look at,
you know, Bea.
629
00:30:20,276 --> 00:30:22,070
Yes, Rose, he's a lizard.
630
00:30:24,447 --> 00:30:25,782
The scripts were incredibly short
631
00:30:25,865 --> 00:30:27,617
because they were so packed with laughter
632
00:30:27,700 --> 00:30:29,285
just simply from their looks.
633
00:30:29,536 --> 00:30:31,454
So that, to me, is just pure talent.
634
00:30:31,538 --> 00:30:32,705
They were letting people in
635
00:30:32,789 --> 00:30:34,666
on what older women were talking about.
636
00:30:34,749 --> 00:30:37,710
We weren't allow to come
to those coffee klatches.
637
00:30:37,794 --> 00:30:38,962
They'd put it on the air.
638
00:30:39,045 --> 00:30:40,713
I said, "Oh, that's what they talk about."
639
00:30:40,797 --> 00:30:43,174
It's about life,
and we'd talk about real life.
640
00:30:43,258 --> 00:30:44,259
Who's not interested?
641
00:30:47,804 --> 00:30:49,681
She comes here. She sits down.
642
00:30:49,764 --> 00:30:51,975
We have a little caviar.
We have a little drink,
643
00:30:52,058 --> 00:30:54,811
and we talk about what happened
over the week.
644
00:30:54,894 --> 00:30:56,145
[both laughing]
645
00:30:57,522 --> 00:30:58,982
[man] Here we go.
646
00:30:59,065 --> 00:31:02,193
[Martin] But then, suddenly,I feel her getting edgy.
647
00:31:02,277 --> 00:31:04,153
She wants to get to the table.
648
00:31:05,405 --> 00:31:09,200
She is ruthless,let me tell you, ruthless.
649
00:31:09,284 --> 00:31:11,786
Six, seven...
650
00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:14,247
She always says,
"Well, I know we're friends here,
651
00:31:14,330 --> 00:31:18,334
but when we get over there,
all friendships cease,"
652
00:31:18,751 --> 00:31:21,212
and she means it. [laughs]
653
00:31:21,296 --> 00:31:24,424
And I have to tell you,she beats us most of the time.
654
00:31:24,507 --> 00:31:26,968
You can see what a friendly game it is.
655
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,431
We were such nice friends over there.
656
00:31:31,514 --> 00:31:33,474
[Martin] Betty is a crossword lover.
657
00:31:33,558 --> 00:31:36,477
She's an all-word-game loveras with Password
658
00:31:36,561 --> 00:31:38,813
and $25,000 Pyramid and that.
659
00:31:39,063 --> 00:31:42,358
She loves words and creating words.
660
00:31:42,692 --> 00:31:44,777
-Oh, boy.
-I'll add an "S".
661
00:31:44,861 --> 00:31:47,071
Oh, what a surprise.
662
00:31:47,155 --> 00:31:48,823
[laughs]
663
00:31:48,907 --> 00:31:50,617
One, two, three.
664
00:31:50,783 --> 00:31:52,452
She loves playing games.
665
00:31:52,535 --> 00:31:53,828
Games are her life.
666
00:31:54,621 --> 00:31:56,205
-Child.
-Minor.
667
00:31:56,289 --> 00:31:57,624
Minor, right.
668
00:31:58,833 --> 00:32:02,003
She enjoys the excitement.
669
00:32:02,337 --> 00:32:04,339
She enjoys the competition.
670
00:32:04,631 --> 00:32:06,591
[man] What do you think the answer
to the puzzle is?
671
00:32:06,674 --> 00:32:08,509
-Penguin.
-Is it a penguin?
672
00:32:08,593 --> 00:32:10,428
-It's a penguin!
-Oh!
673
00:32:10,511 --> 00:32:12,513
-Oh, that's wonderful.
-[audience applauding]
674
00:32:12,722 --> 00:32:14,599
-Oh, that's lovely.
-Okay.
675
00:32:14,682 --> 00:32:17,310
She's witty, and she's quick,
676
00:32:18,144 --> 00:32:22,482
and those two are great qualities to have
677
00:32:22,565 --> 00:32:27,070
if you're going to appear
as a celebrity guest on game shows.
678
00:32:27,153 --> 00:32:28,613
-[bell dings]
-All right, Dolores.
679
00:32:28,696 --> 00:32:30,365
Give us the answer that she's given.
680
00:32:30,448 --> 00:32:33,952
We give you $5,000. Sacred.
681
00:32:34,369 --> 00:32:36,955
I hope it comes through for me
this time... Sacred heart.
682
00:32:37,246 --> 00:32:38,748
[man] Sacred heart.
683
00:32:38,831 --> 00:32:40,458
[applauding]
684
00:32:40,875 --> 00:32:42,460
Well, we're gonna find out
if it comes through
685
00:32:42,543 --> 00:32:44,420
for you or not, Dolores.
686
00:32:44,504 --> 00:32:47,090
Betty, she says "sacred heart"
will match you for the $5,000.
687
00:32:47,173 --> 00:32:48,299
What do you say?
688
00:32:48,383 --> 00:32:50,259
But you also make a sacred vow,
don't you...
689
00:32:50,343 --> 00:32:51,803
-[man] A sacred vow.
-...with all your heart!
690
00:32:51,886 --> 00:32:53,012
[man] With all your heart!
691
00:32:53,096 --> 00:32:55,098
[cheering and applauding]
692
00:32:58,017 --> 00:32:59,852
[Trebek] Betty White hosted her own show,
693
00:32:59,936 --> 00:33:04,691
the only woman to havewon an Emmy for hosting a game show.
694
00:33:04,857 --> 00:33:08,945
Her qualities have really helped herthroughout her career,
695
00:33:09,278 --> 00:33:13,658
and she's fast enough
to handle any situation that comes up.
696
00:33:14,075 --> 00:33:18,913
[man] Yes, it's Password, and now,
here's your host on Password,
697
00:33:18,997 --> 00:33:20,456
Allen Ludden.
698
00:33:23,751 --> 00:33:26,045
[Sullivan] Allen Luddenwas the game-show maven,
699
00:33:26,129 --> 00:33:27,714
and along with Bob Stewart,
700
00:33:27,797 --> 00:33:31,676
one of the great game producers
in television history,
701
00:33:32,176 --> 00:33:33,594
they came up with Password.
702
00:33:33,803 --> 00:33:36,639
The more games you win,
the more money you win.
703
00:33:36,723 --> 00:33:37,557
Isn't that great?
704
00:33:37,932 --> 00:33:41,310
[Bob Stewart] Allen wasa wonderfully neutral guy
705
00:33:41,394 --> 00:33:43,229
rooting for both teams.
706
00:33:43,312 --> 00:33:45,773
You would never know from watching him
707
00:33:45,857 --> 00:33:50,987
that he wasn't enthusiastically
hoping everybody was perfect.
708
00:33:51,070 --> 00:33:53,239
So he worked out to be a pretty good guy.
709
00:33:53,322 --> 00:33:57,035
I met this lady on this show in 1961.
710
00:33:57,118 --> 00:33:58,494
First time I ever met Betty was right here
711
00:33:58,578 --> 00:33:59,620
doing Password in 1961.
712
00:33:59,704 --> 00:34:01,539
-Marvelous. What a nice thing.
-[all applauding]
713
00:34:02,582 --> 00:34:03,750
[man] 17 years.
714
00:34:03,833 --> 00:34:06,169
[Ludden] Yeah, that was...
715
00:34:06,252 --> 00:34:08,254
-In '61 is 18 years.
-[man] Wow, 18.
716
00:34:08,337 --> 00:34:10,006
Yeah, we've been married how many?
717
00:34:10,089 --> 00:34:12,341
Something like three, four, something.
718
00:34:12,425 --> 00:34:16,554
They met on Password, Betty and Allen,
719
00:34:16,637 --> 00:34:17,764
and they looked at each other.
720
00:34:17,847 --> 00:34:20,850
They said, "This is it,"
and it was a love affair.
721
00:34:20,933 --> 00:34:23,895
I flew to New York to do
a couple of things,
722
00:34:23,978 --> 00:34:26,814
and Password was one of them,
and I fell in love with the game.
723
00:34:26,898 --> 00:34:28,441
I loved the game of Password.
724
00:34:28,524 --> 00:34:30,193
[man] This is the sparkling
television star
725
00:34:30,276 --> 00:34:32,361
and great Password player, Betty White.
726
00:34:32,653 --> 00:34:39,160
The host was very nice and very attractive
and I thought, "Oh." [giggles]
727
00:34:39,410 --> 00:34:41,829
Hello, Allen. [laughs]
728
00:34:42,163 --> 00:34:44,207
[Ludden] What are your plans
for the summer, Betty?
729
00:34:44,290 --> 00:34:45,917
Well, I'm gonna do some-- [laughs]
730
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,711
-What did you have in mind, Allen?
-[all laugh]
731
00:34:49,128 --> 00:34:51,297
I think that's one of the reasons
732
00:34:51,380 --> 00:34:55,802
why she came in and out of New York
733
00:34:55,885 --> 00:34:57,720
for short periods of time
734
00:34:58,679 --> 00:35:02,433
to do "Password" or something, you know?
735
00:35:02,642 --> 00:35:07,522
So there was some kind of spark
going on early. [laughs]
736
00:35:07,730 --> 00:35:10,608
There was just a rapport and a warmth.
737
00:35:11,109 --> 00:35:14,487
We just kind of-- We dug each other a lot.
738
00:35:14,695 --> 00:35:17,198
His whole view of how to deal with Betty
739
00:35:17,281 --> 00:35:21,410
was to constantly send her notes,to constantly woo her.
740
00:35:21,494 --> 00:35:25,081
By the end of the year,
he wouldn't say, "Hello."
741
00:35:25,164 --> 00:35:26,374
He'd say, "Will you marry me?"
742
00:35:26,457 --> 00:35:28,209
Well, I thought that was such a joke.
743
00:35:28,292 --> 00:35:29,460
I mean, that's ridiculous.
744
00:35:31,838 --> 00:35:35,424
One night, we went to dinner,and he gave me a jewelry box,
745
00:35:35,508 --> 00:35:37,093
and I opened it,
and there's a wedding ring,
746
00:35:37,176 --> 00:35:39,846
a lovely wedding ring
with diamonds all the way around.
747
00:35:40,471 --> 00:35:42,890
He says, "You might as well wear it.
748
00:35:42,974 --> 00:35:45,059
You're gonna say yes sooner or later."
749
00:35:45,977 --> 00:35:48,187
Well, as any red-blooded American girl
would do,
750
00:35:48,271 --> 00:35:49,397
I got mad.
751
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,024
I got furious, and I gave it back to him,
and I said,
752
00:35:52,108 --> 00:35:55,528
"Forget it, and stop pushing me.
I'm not interested."
753
00:35:55,611 --> 00:35:56,904
I lived in California.
754
00:35:56,988 --> 00:35:59,157
There was no way I was
gonna move to New York.
755
00:35:59,240 --> 00:36:01,534
And he was constantly presenting it,
756
00:36:01,617 --> 00:36:03,494
and she was constantly rejecting it.
757
00:36:03,578 --> 00:36:05,079
Did he give it back to the jeweler?
758
00:36:05,163 --> 00:36:08,583
No, he put it on a chain around his neck.
759
00:36:08,791 --> 00:36:10,376
We'd go to the beach.
760
00:36:10,459 --> 00:36:11,502
There's the wedding ring.
761
00:36:11,586 --> 00:36:13,921
You'd see it at all times. "Here it is."
762
00:36:14,922 --> 00:36:17,675
So in my idiocy,
763
00:36:17,758 --> 00:36:19,969
I wasted a whole year
we could have been together.
764
00:36:20,344 --> 00:36:21,679
I'd say, "No."
765
00:36:21,971 --> 00:36:25,266
She hates the fact that she held him off
for a year and a half
766
00:36:25,349 --> 00:36:27,393
because she didn't want
to move to New York,
767
00:36:27,476 --> 00:36:29,312
and she didn't know
if she could be a mother
768
00:36:29,395 --> 00:36:31,355
to three young people.
769
00:36:31,981 --> 00:36:35,735
Uh... She says today--
If you ask her, she'll say,
770
00:36:35,818 --> 00:36:39,363
"I lost all that time.
I lost all that time."
771
00:36:39,906 --> 00:36:42,950
And, finally, Easter came along,
772
00:36:43,034 --> 00:36:46,329
and he sent me this beautiful
little stuffed bunny
773
00:36:46,412 --> 00:36:52,543
with ruby and sapphire
and gold earrings on its ears,
774
00:36:53,211 --> 00:36:56,088
and it just said, "Please say yes."
775
00:36:56,380 --> 00:37:00,009
So that night when he called me,
I didn't say, "Hello."
776
00:37:00,092 --> 00:37:04,347
I said, "Yes," and always
after that, he said,
777
00:37:04,430 --> 00:37:08,267
"Betty is the only woman
I ever could imagine--
778
00:37:08,351 --> 00:37:11,187
She didn't say yes to me
because of those earrings."
779
00:37:11,354 --> 00:37:15,441
It was because of that soft bunny...
[laughing] ...that I said yes.
780
00:37:17,151 --> 00:37:18,653
It had suddenly dawned on me
781
00:37:18,736 --> 00:37:20,613
I was gonna spend the rest of my life
782
00:37:20,696 --> 00:37:23,574
without him because of my stubbornness,
783
00:37:23,658 --> 00:37:25,701
so sure enough, we got married,
784
00:37:25,785 --> 00:37:28,120
and I moved to New York for four years,
785
00:37:28,913 --> 00:37:32,458
and then Goodson-Todman moved
Password back to California,
786
00:37:32,541 --> 00:37:33,876
and life was wonderful.
787
00:37:34,335 --> 00:37:35,795
This is my wife, Betty, Mr. Unger.
788
00:37:35,878 --> 00:37:36,963
Felix.
789
00:37:37,046 --> 00:37:40,508
Nice to know you, Mrs. White...
Ms. White, Ms. Ludden.
790
00:37:40,591 --> 00:37:42,134
-Betty.
-Ah.
791
00:37:42,218 --> 00:37:45,221
You know, I watch you all the time, Betty.
You're my biggest fan.
792
00:37:48,557 --> 00:37:49,600
Thank you. That's very nice.
793
00:37:49,684 --> 00:37:51,477
I remember when you had your own show
794
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,729
years and years and years ago.
795
00:37:56,941 --> 00:37:57,942
That many?
796
00:37:58,526 --> 00:37:59,902
It's amazing how youthful you look.
797
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:02,446
Thank you.
798
00:38:02,530 --> 00:38:04,031
I'm even younger on the reruns.
799
00:38:04,115 --> 00:38:06,409
[laughs]
800
00:38:06,492 --> 00:38:08,119
She had the greatest marriage.
801
00:38:08,202 --> 00:38:12,540
Allen Ludden, her darling husband,
died quite many years ago.
802
00:38:12,623 --> 00:38:14,917
I didn't know how she would do
after Allen passed away,
803
00:38:15,001 --> 00:38:17,211
but she's strong.
804
00:38:17,295 --> 00:38:19,380
She got through that, and look at her.
805
00:38:19,463 --> 00:38:24,468
There was an aura
that surrounded how they were
806
00:38:24,552 --> 00:38:26,095
that I'll never forget.
807
00:38:27,930 --> 00:38:29,598
Once it happens,
808
00:38:29,682 --> 00:38:32,727
it's not something you make up
or you make room for.
809
00:38:32,810 --> 00:38:34,103
You can't avoid it.
810
00:38:34,186 --> 00:38:36,897
You can't get away from it,
and you don't want to.
811
00:38:38,649 --> 00:38:40,776
We were kind of hung up on each other.
812
00:38:40,860 --> 00:38:43,696
We, uh... We had a crush on each other.
813
00:38:47,533 --> 00:38:50,244
-Nice to have had you here.
-Nice to have had you here.
814
00:38:50,328 --> 00:38:51,829
-You played a very good game.
-Thank you.
815
00:38:51,912 --> 00:38:53,664
-We'll see you all next week...
-It's been fun with this one.
816
00:38:53,748 --> 00:38:55,124
...at the same time or tomorrow
on daytime Password.
817
00:38:55,207 --> 00:38:57,877
Until then, this is Allen Ludden
saying the password tonight is...
818
00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:58,836
Home.
819
00:38:58,919 --> 00:39:01,255
Will you take me home, please, Mr. Ludden?
820
00:39:01,339 --> 00:39:02,673
I certainly will, Mrs. Ludden.
821
00:39:02,757 --> 00:39:04,467
-Thank you. Good night.
-[audience applaud]
822
00:39:06,761 --> 00:39:08,888
[Mikelas] I can put the addresses
on the envelopes
823
00:39:08,971 --> 00:39:10,890
'cause I have them all here
in my phone, so you don't--
824
00:39:10,973 --> 00:39:12,892
If you write the notes
and hand them to me,
825
00:39:12,975 --> 00:39:14,977
then I can get everything addressed, and--
826
00:39:15,061 --> 00:39:18,522
She is the most hands-on person,
827
00:39:18,606 --> 00:39:22,193
in terms of that professional stuff
828
00:39:22,276 --> 00:39:23,569
that I've ever worked for.
829
00:39:24,278 --> 00:39:25,821
She reads her fan mail.
830
00:39:25,905 --> 00:39:27,531
She signs her own fan mail.
831
00:39:27,615 --> 00:39:29,909
She still writes letters to Eagle Scouts.
832
00:39:30,534 --> 00:39:32,495
Why my hand is--
833
00:39:32,578 --> 00:39:34,038
It doesn't look like my writing.
834
00:39:34,163 --> 00:39:35,706
My hand doesn't know how to work.
835
00:39:35,790 --> 00:39:39,293
-Let's take a look.
-Thank you.
836
00:39:39,377 --> 00:39:40,378
Oh, it's still that--
837
00:39:40,461 --> 00:39:42,671
it's still the pretty Betty handwriting.
838
00:39:42,755 --> 00:39:45,925
I have not encountered anybody
with a work ethic
839
00:39:46,008 --> 00:39:48,719
like Betty's in my career.
840
00:39:48,803 --> 00:39:50,888
I mean, she makes you want to work harder.
841
00:39:50,971 --> 00:39:52,306
She makes you want to show up.
842
00:39:52,515 --> 00:39:55,726
Okay, we're gonna do some schedule first
because I want to make sure
843
00:39:55,810 --> 00:39:58,062
that you have everything
up-to-date that I have.
844
00:39:58,145 --> 00:39:59,772
Okeydoke, sweetheart.
845
00:40:00,314 --> 00:40:01,982
[Mikelas] She wants that schedule full.
846
00:40:02,108 --> 00:40:03,401
She loves to work.
847
00:40:03,776 --> 00:40:05,111
She loves to be busy.
848
00:40:05,486 --> 00:40:09,031
And then, pickup for the salon
at 7:00 on Friday.
849
00:40:09,115 --> 00:40:11,659
-Yes.
-And Fleming at 11:00 for body.
850
00:40:11,742 --> 00:40:15,746
Right. On Wednesday...
851
00:40:15,830 --> 00:40:18,332
Pickup at 6:15 for Hot in Cleveland.
852
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:20,918
Yeah, you're gonna have dinner
with the Hot in Cleveland ladies.
853
00:40:21,001 --> 00:40:22,711
-The ladies, uh-huh.
-That will be nice to see them
854
00:40:22,795 --> 00:40:24,380
'cause you haven't seen them in a while.
855
00:40:24,463 --> 00:40:27,633
-Yeah. No, it's been quite a while.
-Yeah.
856
00:40:27,716 --> 00:40:31,095
Hot in Cleveland was a gift from--
857
00:40:31,178 --> 00:40:33,722
I must have been doing
something right in my life
858
00:40:33,806 --> 00:40:36,725
because I was given this gift
right on my lap,
859
00:40:36,809 --> 00:40:40,271
um, and when they said, "Read the script.
We have Betty White,"
860
00:40:40,354 --> 00:40:42,648
I was like,
"Oh, I don't even have to read it.
861
00:40:42,731 --> 00:40:44,275
Yeah, I want to work with Betty White."
862
00:40:44,567 --> 00:40:50,656
They asked me if I'd do a guest shot,
and I said,
863
00:40:50,739 --> 00:40:52,366
"Well, if--" It was the pilot,
864
00:40:52,450 --> 00:40:57,872
"and if it gets picked up,
and how few shows get picked up,"
865
00:40:58,164 --> 00:41:00,207
I said, "I won't be able to do the show.
866
00:41:00,291 --> 00:41:03,377
I'm too busy, but I can do--
867
00:41:03,461 --> 00:41:05,296
I'll do a one-shot on the pilot."
868
00:41:05,379 --> 00:41:06,964
So what are you, like 100?
869
00:41:08,591 --> 00:41:10,092
I don't like you.
870
00:41:12,094 --> 00:41:13,888
Aren't you that girl from that show?
871
00:41:13,971 --> 00:41:15,181
Yes, yes, I am.
872
00:41:15,306 --> 00:41:17,183
-Are you a fan?
-No.
873
00:41:20,019 --> 00:41:22,229
When it was canceled,
I said, "Good riddance."
874
00:41:23,314 --> 00:41:26,358
Luckily, after the pilot was done,
875
00:41:26,442 --> 00:41:29,695
Betty seemed to have had
such an amazing time that she said,
876
00:41:29,778 --> 00:41:31,322
"Oh, yeah, sure, I'll be in."
877
00:41:31,405 --> 00:41:34,116
They never were able
to get rid of me. [laughs]
878
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:35,993
They couldn't lose me from then on.
879
00:41:36,285 --> 00:41:39,955
You know, Joy,
instead of two weeks in Paris,
880
00:41:40,039 --> 00:41:42,041
we could spend two weeks in Cleveland.
881
00:41:42,124 --> 00:41:44,168
I mean, the Paris of Ohio.
882
00:41:45,586 --> 00:41:46,879
No, that's Toledo.
883
00:41:50,049 --> 00:41:52,718
There is no other way
to work except in an ensemble.
884
00:41:52,801 --> 00:41:55,513
I think you feed off each other--
885
00:41:55,596 --> 00:41:57,348
No, I know you feed off each other.
886
00:41:57,431 --> 00:42:00,559
It raises your own game,
and I'm telling you,
887
00:42:00,643 --> 00:42:03,604
working with Betty White
is really like having
888
00:42:03,687 --> 00:42:05,856
a master class of comedic timing.
889
00:42:05,940 --> 00:42:08,692
So, we're four single girls
on a Saturday night.
890
00:42:08,776 --> 00:42:10,027
[dings]
891
00:42:10,402 --> 00:42:12,655
-Victoria!
-Wait, that's not me!
892
00:42:12,947 --> 00:42:13,989
It's me.
893
00:42:14,490 --> 00:42:16,659
I signed up when my bender was over.
894
00:42:17,076 --> 00:42:20,246
In fact, that's my screen name...
BenderOver.
895
00:42:26,377 --> 00:42:27,503
[chuckles]
896
00:42:27,586 --> 00:42:29,672
So we call it the "BenderOver scene,"
897
00:42:30,214 --> 00:42:33,509
and to this day,
898
00:42:33,592 --> 00:42:38,222
I cannot watch "BenderOver"
without laughing hysterically.
899
00:42:38,639 --> 00:42:41,058
I signed up when my bender was over.
900
00:42:41,183 --> 00:42:43,894
[all laughing]
901
00:42:44,478 --> 00:42:45,771
Oh, I am so sorry.
902
00:42:45,896 --> 00:42:48,691
It just gives you the giggles
because Betty White has the giggles,
903
00:42:48,774 --> 00:42:52,152
and when Betty White has the giggles,
I defy you.
904
00:42:52,236 --> 00:42:55,114
There is no way
that you cannot giggle yourself.
905
00:42:55,197 --> 00:42:57,992
I signed up when my bender was over.
906
00:42:58,075 --> 00:42:59,451
[all laughing]
907
00:42:59,868 --> 00:43:02,037
Hang on. I'm gonna do it.
908
00:43:03,038 --> 00:43:05,040
Not this, but--
909
00:43:05,708 --> 00:43:08,002
I signed up when my bender was over.
910
00:43:08,294 --> 00:43:10,921
In fact, that's my screen name...
911
00:43:11,005 --> 00:43:12,548
[laughing] "BenderOver."
912
00:43:16,010 --> 00:43:18,137
We had a few during the years,
913
00:43:18,220 --> 00:43:21,473
a few really amazing moments
914
00:43:21,557 --> 00:43:24,435
where everything stopped on the set,
915
00:43:24,518 --> 00:43:27,813
and people just wanted to watch
Betty work with Tim Conway.
916
00:43:27,980 --> 00:43:31,442
I believe you left this behind
at the dance, princess.
917
00:43:32,484 --> 00:43:35,362
Well, I had to rush off
when the clock struck 9:00.
918
00:43:35,446 --> 00:43:36,614
Yes.
919
00:43:36,697 --> 00:43:38,365
Betty worked with Carol Burnett.
920
00:43:38,782 --> 00:43:43,287
Oh, Elka, I am so glad
we had this time together.
921
00:43:44,246 --> 00:43:46,165
Me too. [giggles]
922
00:43:46,415 --> 00:43:49,793
Betty worked with her old
Mary Tyler Moore crew.
923
00:43:50,085 --> 00:43:54,214
So to have those people
come into this new family,
924
00:43:54,298 --> 00:43:57,384
it was an interesting and delightful week.
925
00:43:57,468 --> 00:43:58,969
You were the bombshell.
926
00:43:59,053 --> 00:44:02,723
Diane was the legs,
and Mamie Sue was the ditz.
927
00:44:04,183 --> 00:44:06,185
No, no, no, I was the legs.
928
00:44:07,519 --> 00:44:13,359
Angie was the brains,
and Mamie Sue was the... ditz.
929
00:44:15,110 --> 00:44:17,196
Well, the joke's on all of you.
930
00:44:17,279 --> 00:44:20,574
You're not any of those things anymore,
but I'm still ditzy.
931
00:44:20,658 --> 00:44:22,159
[all laugh]
932
00:44:23,827 --> 00:44:25,621
[Engel] The memory I take away from that
933
00:44:25,704 --> 00:44:28,082
is the mortal changes happen,
934
00:44:28,165 --> 00:44:33,003
but our love for each other endures.
935
00:44:33,629 --> 00:44:36,590
The first time I was just speechless,
936
00:44:36,674 --> 00:44:40,969
which is hard for me, was when
Carl Reiner came on the show.
937
00:44:41,053 --> 00:44:42,680
Betty and I worked on--
938
00:44:42,763 --> 00:44:45,057
I worked on her show called
Hot in Cleveland.
939
00:44:45,140 --> 00:44:49,311
Oh, well, well, Carl is something else.
940
00:44:49,603 --> 00:44:52,856
And there was a scene in an outdoor patio,
941
00:44:52,940 --> 00:44:55,442
and Carl and Betty
are getting to know one another,
942
00:44:55,526 --> 00:44:57,694
and they just riffed off each other
943
00:44:57,778 --> 00:45:01,281
like no one else was in the room,
and they were brilliant.
944
00:45:01,573 --> 00:45:04,493
The truth is, I'm a great driver,
945
00:45:04,576 --> 00:45:07,663
but sometimes I like to drive real slow
946
00:45:07,746 --> 00:45:09,206
just to mess with people.
947
00:45:09,289 --> 00:45:10,791
[both laugh]
948
00:45:12,418 --> 00:45:14,670
I am having such a good time.
949
00:45:15,337 --> 00:45:16,338
Me too.
950
00:45:16,422 --> 00:45:17,589
It was so perfect.
951
00:45:17,673 --> 00:45:20,926
When I saw it, I said,
"That is a symbiotic scene.
952
00:45:21,009 --> 00:45:22,469
That couple belonged together."
953
00:45:23,053 --> 00:45:24,596
I think we should get married.
954
00:45:25,597 --> 00:45:26,640
Me too.
955
00:45:27,474 --> 00:45:28,851
Pass the salt.
956
00:45:29,435 --> 00:45:31,395
Really? You'd marry me?
957
00:45:31,854 --> 00:45:33,147
Yeah, I would.
958
00:45:33,772 --> 00:45:35,482
Why dance around?
959
00:45:35,566 --> 00:45:36,984
We're perfect for each other.
960
00:45:38,235 --> 00:45:42,072
I'm glad to hear that.
Oh, here's your salt.
961
00:45:43,073 --> 00:45:44,992
I'm impressed you can still use that.
962
00:45:45,701 --> 00:45:48,078
Oh, I know how to shake what I've got.
963
00:45:53,917 --> 00:45:56,253
I've been wanting to do that all night.
964
00:45:58,130 --> 00:45:59,089
[softly] Well...
965
00:45:59,256 --> 00:46:01,341
Now, I can get back to my rigatoni.
966
00:46:03,469 --> 00:46:06,096
He sinks right into the moment,
967
00:46:06,180 --> 00:46:08,891
and whatever you throw at him,
968
00:46:08,974 --> 00:46:11,852
he throws right back at you,
and you better be ready.
969
00:46:12,394 --> 00:46:14,104
It's-- Oh, he's a joy.
970
00:46:14,855 --> 00:46:17,107
If you're an actor in this town
971
00:46:17,191 --> 00:46:20,986
and you get a chance up close
to see these people work together
972
00:46:21,069 --> 00:46:23,989
and not make it look like work, it was--
973
00:46:24,072 --> 00:46:25,491
I'm getting chills just thinking about it
974
00:46:25,574 --> 00:46:28,118
because I can't imagine
975
00:46:28,202 --> 00:46:30,370
how I got lucky enough
to be a part of this.
976
00:46:30,621 --> 00:46:33,123
-So this is my gammy, Annie.
-Pleasure.
977
00:46:33,207 --> 00:46:35,459
Well, hello, there. [chuckles]
978
00:46:35,542 --> 00:46:40,088
Now, do you prefer being called
Margaret or Satan's Mistress?
979
00:46:41,006 --> 00:46:43,050
She is, again,
980
00:46:43,133 --> 00:46:46,595
this sweet sort of lovable character
with an edge,
981
00:46:46,678 --> 00:46:49,097
and we exploited that edge
982
00:46:49,181 --> 00:46:51,517
over and over and over again on that film.
She's a rascal.
983
00:46:51,808 --> 00:46:54,895
Sorry. I'm a bit chesty to begin with,
984
00:46:54,978 --> 00:46:57,439
and I happened to be
knocked up when I wore this.
985
00:46:57,523 --> 00:46:59,024
-Oh.
-[all giggling]
986
00:46:59,107 --> 00:47:02,152
Oh, let's see if we can find your boobs.
987
00:47:02,569 --> 00:47:04,488
[Reynolds] Betty reallyjust made that movie.
988
00:47:04,571 --> 00:47:07,115
I really don't think that
that film would have been nearly
989
00:47:07,199 --> 00:47:09,535
as successful or as effective
without her presence.
990
00:47:09,618 --> 00:47:11,495
This is like an Easter egg hunt.
[chuckles]
991
00:47:12,788 --> 00:47:15,499
Maybe they shrunk up
in the cold Alaskan air.
992
00:47:15,582 --> 00:47:17,167
[all laugh]
993
00:47:18,001 --> 00:47:20,921
-Oh, there they are.
-That-- Yes, it would be.
994
00:47:21,004 --> 00:47:22,047
Oh.
995
00:47:22,130 --> 00:47:26,927
She's just this sweet,
you know, lovely older woman
996
00:47:27,010 --> 00:47:30,097
who is just beloved
by this whole crew and cast
997
00:47:30,180 --> 00:47:31,557
that everybody
would just do anything for her,
998
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,141
and she gets up to leave,
999
00:47:33,225 --> 00:47:35,644
and everyone's sad
'cause it's her last shot,
1000
00:47:35,727 --> 00:47:37,271
and she's just walking
out the door to say goodbye,
1001
00:47:37,354 --> 00:47:38,981
and she turns around
right in the doorjamb,
1002
00:47:39,064 --> 00:47:41,942
and she says,
"I just want everyone here to know
1003
00:47:42,317 --> 00:47:46,655
this is the most fun
I've ever had... standing up,"
1004
00:47:47,698 --> 00:47:50,450
and then she turns, and, I mean, just--
1005
00:47:50,534 --> 00:47:52,494
The woman just kills everyone.
1006
00:47:52,578 --> 00:47:54,913
Everybody is just--
spends the rest of the day
1007
00:47:54,997 --> 00:47:56,915
at a perfect 90-degree angle laughing.
1008
00:47:56,999 --> 00:47:59,209
The crew just loved her, and, I mean,
1009
00:47:59,293 --> 00:48:01,211
never forgot a line, never--
1010
00:48:01,295 --> 00:48:03,589
I mean, she was just everything
1011
00:48:03,672 --> 00:48:05,549
that you wanted her to be and more.
1012
00:48:05,632 --> 00:48:07,384
I felt very, very lucky.
1013
00:48:07,593 --> 00:48:08,969
Caroline, you okay?
1014
00:48:09,052 --> 00:48:11,888
Oh, I am, indeed, and thank you again.
1015
00:48:11,972 --> 00:48:13,140
Of course.
1016
00:48:13,473 --> 00:48:15,767
Okay, so the train is gonna be here
in just a few minutes,
1017
00:48:15,851 --> 00:48:18,604
and they're gonna bring your husband
right through that tunnel.
1018
00:48:19,771 --> 00:48:21,773
Caroline, you don't have to do a thing.
1019
00:48:22,274 --> 00:48:24,818
Just wait like you always do.
1020
00:48:25,193 --> 00:48:28,947
The Lost Valentine is a love letter,
1021
00:48:29,031 --> 00:48:31,950
like, a generational love letter.
1022
00:48:32,034 --> 00:48:34,620
She really had a connection to the piece
1023
00:48:34,703 --> 00:48:37,372
and, you know, very much like myself,
1024
00:48:37,456 --> 00:48:39,583
sort of just loved the love story
1025
00:48:39,666 --> 00:48:42,961
and has such an amazing love story
with her husband.
1026
00:48:43,045 --> 00:48:45,839
In any scene about the husband
1027
00:48:45,922 --> 00:48:49,426
or about that character in the movie,
before and after,
1028
00:48:49,509 --> 00:48:52,429
she would always send a kiss up to Allen.
1029
00:48:56,391 --> 00:49:01,188
The power of how love can stay
for a very, very, very long time
1030
00:49:01,271 --> 00:49:03,774
and sort of grab ahold of you
and not let go.
1031
00:49:11,281 --> 00:49:12,199
It was really something
1032
00:49:12,282 --> 00:49:14,368
that she wanted to not only
give to the audience,
1033
00:49:14,451 --> 00:49:17,621
I think that she wanted to prove
to the audience that, you know,
1034
00:49:17,746 --> 00:49:19,956
she wasn't funny all the time, you know?
[chuckles]
1035
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,043
Um, but I also think for Allen,
it was really--
1036
00:49:23,126 --> 00:49:26,338
It was sort of-- that's kind of
where she went in her heart
1037
00:49:26,421 --> 00:49:29,216
and her mind, and it was very touching.
1038
00:49:41,353 --> 00:49:44,523
[sobbing]
1039
00:49:47,901 --> 00:49:49,069
It was very slow.
1040
00:49:49,152 --> 00:49:52,989
It was a very sweet, sort of soft moment,
1041
00:49:53,073 --> 00:49:55,242
and she was just brilliant.
1042
00:50:07,003 --> 00:50:08,422
-Hi, Betty.
-Hi!
1043
00:50:08,505 --> 00:50:11,174
-It's so good to see you!
-Oh, thank you.
1044
00:50:11,258 --> 00:50:14,010
-So happy you could come up.
-Thank you for letting me come.
1045
00:50:14,094 --> 00:50:16,680
We've been telling Bam Bam
all week his BFF is coming.
1046
00:50:16,763 --> 00:50:18,306
-[White] Oh, really?
-[woman] Yeah.
1047
00:50:18,390 --> 00:50:20,475
[White] Well, that's my life.
1048
00:50:20,559 --> 00:50:22,602
The reason I work,
the reason I do anything
1049
00:50:22,686 --> 00:50:25,021
is because of my love of animals.
1050
00:50:25,522 --> 00:50:27,899
[man] She's enjoying his love right now.
1051
00:50:27,983 --> 00:50:29,693
[Engel] She says all the time,
1052
00:50:29,776 --> 00:50:31,820
"I have to keep doing my acting job
1053
00:50:31,903 --> 00:50:35,490
so I can support
my animal causes." [chuckles]
1054
00:50:35,657 --> 00:50:39,035
She truly believes that the animal kingdom
1055
00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:41,705
is well worth taking care of.
1056
00:50:41,997 --> 00:50:43,874
Well, what is that?
1057
00:50:43,957 --> 00:50:45,834
[Dee] And with Betty,it's been constant,
1058
00:50:45,917 --> 00:50:47,669
hundred percent, all the time.
1059
00:50:47,753 --> 00:50:49,629
She doesn't call herself an activist.
1060
00:50:49,713 --> 00:50:52,758
She's an advocate,
and there's a difference.
1061
00:50:52,841 --> 00:50:54,217
How's that?
1062
00:50:54,301 --> 00:50:56,928
Is that good? Is that good?
1063
00:50:57,304 --> 00:50:59,181
[Sullivan] Let me beginby telling you that I think
1064
00:50:59,264 --> 00:51:04,352
Betty White can charm
the savage beast. [chuckles]
1065
00:51:06,521 --> 00:51:10,108
-I'm the luckiest old broad on two feet.
-[all laugh]
1066
00:51:10,442 --> 00:51:14,321
Betty always treats people with dignity
1067
00:51:14,404 --> 00:51:16,990
and respect and charm.
1068
00:51:17,365 --> 00:51:20,744
She has a far closer relationship
to animals than she does to people.
1069
00:51:20,827 --> 00:51:22,412
[woman] You were telling me a story
a long time ago
1070
00:51:22,496 --> 00:51:25,123
about how you used to go
backpacking with your family...
1071
00:51:25,207 --> 00:51:26,583
-In the Sierras.
-...in the Sierras.
1072
00:51:26,666 --> 00:51:28,043
Did you ever see bears there?
1073
00:51:28,126 --> 00:51:30,045
'Cause there were probably
a bigger population.
1074
00:51:30,128 --> 00:51:32,088
-Only black bears.
-Only black bears, yeah.
1075
00:51:32,172 --> 00:51:33,882
But we'd go to Yellowstone,
1076
00:51:33,965 --> 00:51:36,426
and that's where you see the old grizzly.
1077
00:51:36,885 --> 00:51:39,095
And every summer,
they would go into the High Sierras
1078
00:51:39,179 --> 00:51:41,556
and literally live on the land.
1079
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:45,143
We'd pack into the High Sierras,
just the three of us,
1080
00:51:45,227 --> 00:51:47,312
and be up there for three weeks,all alone.
1081
00:51:47,395 --> 00:51:50,357
We'd never see another human being.
1082
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:52,359
That's when you see wildlife.
1083
00:51:54,361 --> 00:51:55,779
That's when you see...
1084
00:51:55,862 --> 00:51:58,406
You can't do this, though, unfortunately.
1085
00:51:58,740 --> 00:51:59,908
[man] Well, you may only
get to do it once.
1086
00:51:59,991 --> 00:52:01,576
-[woman] Yeah, you would do it one time.
-[all laugh]
1087
00:52:01,660 --> 00:52:03,829
-Only once.
-Yeah.
1088
00:52:03,912 --> 00:52:07,207
But moose, you see moose,
and that was exciting.
1089
00:52:07,290 --> 00:52:09,459
I'd go back to school, and they'd say,
1090
00:52:09,543 --> 00:52:10,877
"You were up there with your--
1091
00:52:10,961 --> 00:52:14,047
What did you talk about? What did you do?"
1092
00:52:14,130 --> 00:52:16,216
I said, "You just don't understand."
1093
00:52:16,299 --> 00:52:18,885
We were animal nuts, all three of us.
1094
00:52:18,969 --> 00:52:22,472
I think they were so disappointed
when I was a baby
1095
00:52:22,556 --> 00:52:25,767
-that they had a baby.
-[all laugh]
1096
00:52:25,851 --> 00:52:27,435
[woman] They were hoping
1097
00:52:27,519 --> 00:52:29,104
-to have a litter.
-Why not a little animal?
1098
00:52:29,187 --> 00:52:31,648
Betty hopefully is going to be remembered
1099
00:52:31,731 --> 00:52:34,651
as a very kind person, a loving person,
1100
00:52:34,734 --> 00:52:38,947
an extremely terrific actress, comedian,
1101
00:52:39,865 --> 00:52:41,783
but I think she really
wants to be remembered
1102
00:52:41,867 --> 00:52:45,078
as one who gave mostof her life to animals.
1103
00:52:45,161 --> 00:52:47,455
-Oh, oh, I know.
-[woman] Oh, my goodness.
1104
00:52:50,208 --> 00:52:52,460
[all laughing]
1105
00:52:56,214 --> 00:52:58,049
You know, some songs
sort of make the rounds.
1106
00:52:58,133 --> 00:52:59,926
They come around just every so often,
1107
00:53:00,010 --> 00:53:02,512
and others just never really go away.
1108
00:53:02,596 --> 00:53:04,723
I guess this one sort of falls
into the latter category
1109
00:53:04,806 --> 00:53:07,058
'cause you hear it just every so often.

[Bertinelli] She is every woman.
1117
00:53:26,745 --> 00:53:28,455
She doesn't offend.
1118
00:53:28,538 --> 00:53:30,916
She's funny. She's quick.
1119
00:53:31,124 --> 00:53:32,542
She's very smart.
1120
00:53:32,751 --> 00:53:35,378
It's just the magic of Betty White.
Not everybody has that.
1121
00:53:35,462 --> 00:53:37,422
I think people are attracted to that
1122
00:53:37,505 --> 00:53:39,674
because we spend our whole lives
just trying to figure out,
1123
00:53:39,758 --> 00:53:42,093
like, what we really want to do,
1124
00:53:42,260 --> 00:53:44,679
and for Betty, it's entertaining people,
1125
00:53:44,763 --> 00:53:47,974
and she just genuinely feels that way,
and it's infectious.
1126
00:53:48,058 --> 00:53:53,021
Just courage and grace and love of life,
1127
00:53:53,104 --> 00:53:56,232
I think that's the secret to longevity.
1128
00:53:56,441 --> 00:54:01,696
If you pass 70, just look to Betty,
and that's the way to do it.
1129
00:54:01,780 --> 00:54:03,949
She twinkles. She does twinkle.
1130
00:54:04,824 --> 00:54:06,326

00:54:30,475 --> 00:54:32,352
Like, it isn't an act.
1138
00:54:32,435 --> 00:54:34,270
I think her legacy is kindness,
1139
00:54:34,354 --> 00:54:36,898
and just, you know,
there is always a silver lining,
1140
00:54:36,982 --> 00:54:39,067
and she embodies that.
1141
00:54:39,150 --> 00:54:42,195
One of the smartest, funniest, kindest,
1142
00:54:42,278 --> 00:54:44,823
most generous women in a business
1143
00:54:44,906 --> 00:54:49,619
that doesn't normally have
that kind of people in it,
1144
00:54:49,703 --> 00:54:51,913

[audience applauding]
1149
00:55:21,067 --> 00:55:24,821
People have been
stuck with me for so long,
1150
00:55:24,904 --> 00:55:28,408
and bless their hearts,
been so supportive.
1151
00:55:28,491 --> 00:55:33,580
But I am amazed
that I'm still on television.
1152
00:55:33,663 --> 00:55:37,167
They still let me come back,
and I'm not saying that coyly.
1153
00:55:37,250 --> 00:55:40,378
I mean it. It's such a privilege
1154
00:55:40,462 --> 00:55:44,049
to still be able to work in this business.
