Sometimes, a game can be a family affair, part 2 (Password, 1964)

Back in February, we presented a 1965 episode of Password with Jimmy Stewart and his family. Now, we're moving the clock back by four months, to November 1964, as Lucille Ball and her husband, Gary Morton, play with Lucy's kids, Lucie & Desi Arnaz, Jr., the latter of whom is in the process of forming the pop trio, Dino, Desi, & Billy.



Lucy was a frequent guest on various Goodson-Todman games with both Gary Morton and Desi Arnaz, Jr., and would later play Password Plus with a grown up Desi, Jr. for a week, along with Dick Martin and Betty White. Lucy's final Password bow came during the Super Password era, joined by Life With Lucy co-star Ann Dusenberry and White and her Golden Girls co-star, Estelle Getty.

Rating: A.
