Here are some episodes of the hugely popular 1950's Television series....
"You Bet Your Life"
Featuring the comic talents of Groucho Marx. It was a.... "comedic quiz show", and much of this program's humor was improvised by the great man himself.
Although, Groucho usually would have a very basic idea on who would appear each show, I feel these few episodes show off his comedic genius.
There was one and only one.... Groucho Marx.

| "Say the secret word, and win $100.00" |
Like most 1950's quiz shows, it wasn't rigged, but the scandals involving.... "The $64,000 Question" and other such programs, caused the ratings to decline.
Still, the show enjoyed a long run, finishing with more than 10 years on the air. As the show was produced directly on film, most episodes still exist.
