What I find interesting is that the title of this mentions the youngest female judge. While that is an accomplishment, the title said nothing about the Fabulous Moolah, Her real name was Lillian Ellison. She held the Women's title for 28 years, finally loosing it to Wendy Richter in 1983. The Fabulous Moolah even after her retiremnet in the late 80s made appearances in the WWF. Her last match was in 2006 at the age of 86. She was truly a legend in professional wrestling.
Yes...true ..but she was also a scumbag! Maybe that's why her name wasn't in title.
Loosing? How did she loose? Loosely?
She was also corrupt as hell - and in some of the worst ways. Check it out.
ZoeAnn Warberg Shaub - a former Miss Idaho - was the first woman to serve as a judge in south-central Idaho’s 5th Judicial District. Shaub, 83, died Sept. 13 2017 in a tragic car accident south of Jackpot, Nev. RIP Judge :(((
Just seen Don Ameche in
The Story of Alexander Graham Bell (1939)
If you like wonderful moving dramas that pierce the heart you need to check it out!
I have noticed that in every episode, some of the panelists were given a full minute for questioning, while others were given only about 45 seconds.
Game #1: 5:54 Tom will later eat those words with a side of potatoes.
Game #3: Alex Rourke Jr. went missing in 1963 when flying to Cuba. His body was never found. But the thing that cough my attention was that this particular episode was originally aired on the day of the failed Bay of Pigs invasion. And to make the situation more surreal, some time later TTTT presented an authentic survivor of that debacle as a contestant.
INDEED, ALEX ROARK. JR. was declared legally dead in 1968, imprisoned in 1963 and probably tortured and murdered in Cuba :( .
I work with a man who escaped Cuba as a teenager. His stories of life there are harrowing.
Alex Rourke went missing in 1963 enroute to Cuba in a mysterious plane crash. He was declared legally dead in 1968.
fascinating and spooky
Thanks, I like knowing these snippets of info aboutthe contestants. I just watched To Tell the Truth with Mario Biaggi who, as a police officer, had been awarded the Medal of Honor in NYC. He had a career of ups and downs, from being elected 10 times to the US House of Representatives, to a couple of years in prison.
OMG , a whole carton !!!!
April 17, 1961 which is this broadcast date was also the date of the Bay of Pigs invasion.
Zoeann dies just a month ago in a car accident at age 83 sadly
A younger Fabulous Moolah. Fantastic seeing her on this show. The Judge was an attractive woman. Bud brings the show home on time, always.
Here is the episode of the Steve Allen Show from 1957 where Tom Poston and Rita Gam spoofed "To Tell the Truth" in 1957, (before Tom replaced Hy Gardner on the show):

Thank you for posting this link. That parody was delightful! So clever and funny. Tom Poston as Ralph Bellamy was hilarious! Everybody was comic genius!
#2
The term is "Nolle Prosequi," or colloquially, "Nolle Pros," meaning "We shall no longer prosecute."
Yes, and it's shocking the real judge didn't know it!
@@acousticshadow4032maybe she didn’t understand Tom's pronunciation. At one I thought he said Noll Cross. Bud Collyer alludes to possible mispronunciation later in the segment.
To think that Moolah was 38 here. D:
Smoking was culturally correct then
Who is Rita Gam? Never heard of her!
