Celebrity panelists - on this episode, June Lockhart, Bob Considine, Quincy Howe and Groucho - were read quotations from the news of the day by host John Daly, and asked who had originally spoken them. Panelists Groucho alternates between insightful and disruptive.
Season 1
S01:E01 - The General Electric Theater: The Incredible Jewel Robbery
The well-received half-hour show - basically a silent two-reel comedy with Harpo and Chico that could have been produced thirty years earlier - features only the briefest unadvertised appearance by Groucho.
S01:E02 - The Jack Benny Program
In this thoroughly enjoyable meeting of two comic legends, Benny attempts to win some money by going on You Bet Your Life in disguise.
S01:E03 - Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
In Harpo Marx's last TV appearance, Senator Smith mistakes Harpo for a famous French pianist and invites him to play at the White House.
S01:E04 - The College Bowl
In this, the final episode of the series - and the only one known to survive - Chico considers an offer to sell his popular college hangout.
S01:E05 - The Red Skelton Hour
The premiere of Red Skelton's new one-hour show was a tour-de-force for Harpo, who was on camera almost as much as Skelton.
S01:E06 - Celebrity Golf
Harpo was a serious golfer and jumped at the chance to travel to Las Vegas to take on the legendary Sam Snead. He claimed a 21-stroke handicap and clowned his way through the match, but occasionally displayed a pretty good swing.
S01:E07 - Championship Bridge with Charles Goren
There's something fitting about Chico making one of his last public appearances with a deck of cards in his hands.
S01:E08 - Groucho
You Bet Your Life had been off the air for four years when Groucho accepted an offer to do a new version of the show in England. Simply called Groucho, the show utilized essentially the same format as the American show.
S01:E09 - The Arthur Murray Party
With You Bet Your Life consistently among the top-rated shows on television, NBC frequently called upon Groucho to liven up the proceedings on some of the network's other shows.
S01:E10 - The DuPont Show of the Week: The Wonderful World of Toys
Harpo only made one television appearance during the 1961-1962 season - this special in which he and Carol Burnett walk through New York's Central Park looking at toys.
S01:E11 - Who Said That?
Celebrity panelists - on this episode, June Lockhart, Bob Considine, Quincy Howe and Groucho - were read quotations from the news of the day by host John Daly, and asked who had originally spoken them. Panelists Groucho alternates between insightful and disruptive.
