What's My Line

How many times was the original 'WML' interupted by a man walking across the stage? I have in the collection a late fifties show when someone walked passed Milton Berle but were there more?

When Melina Mercouri was the mystery guest, a guy hit the stage trying to shill for a local dating service. He was quickly ushered off by Fates and Olson. Airdate of 10-7-62.

/Fates and Olson. Sounds like a detective agency

Check the tape. Legend holds that Berle used the chance to ad-lib. He's said to indicate the intruder and say, "My agent." True?

Indeed, here's video of the Milton Berle moment, courtesy of a similar WML thread in the video clips subforum. That thread also has a link to footage of the Melina Mercouri incident.
