Berg continued to make guest appearances on television in the 1950s and early 1960s. She appeared on "The Pat Boone Chevy Showroom", a February 1958 episode of "The Ford Show, Starring Tennessee Ernie Ford", and was the "mystery guest'" on the series "What's My Line" in 1954 and 1960. In 1961, Berg made a last stab at television success in the Four Star Television situation comedy, "Mrs. G. Goes to College" (retitled "The Gertrude Berg Show" at midseason), playing a 62-year-old widow who enrolls in college. The series was cancelled after one season.
