This was SO good I don't know why they didn't bring it back!!!!
Thank you for sharing these🌷
It was brought back several times with different hosts and panalists-all unsuccessfully. It was revived again in 1969 in syndicated form with an eight year run with Garry Moore hosting and the old panal, for the most part.
I can't believe Liar #2 from the 1st segment, "Undercover Girl", was the mother of 8 children. She's drop-dead gorgeous!
I went out and bought an old copy of Lyn Tornabene's book after watching this episode and it was actually quite a good read
Thank you for a great series
My pleasure-- glad you enjoyed it. :)
Thank you
Lady #3 in Game #1
Man #1 in Game #2
Man #2 in Game #3 Odd that not all of the 100 audience members who were given the chance to vote actually voted. In Game #1, 92 voted. In Game #2, 94 voted. In Game #3, 97 voted.
Good night and God bless
Red Skelton closed his program with that.
Love this show and am watching every episode.
Daytime TV was packed with gameshows as well as daytime dramas. The good old days.
*game shows
To tell the truth thanks for the memories
Budd kept wearing his happy bow tie to the bitter end.
Bud, not Budd.
I started between 2-3 years ago with the TTTT pilot hosted by Mike Wallace. Now, this is the last episode. I want to say thank you for posting all these great shows. I enjoyed everyone one of them. I will miss all the panelists, announcers and of course Bud.
One of the other panelists told Kitty once that she sounded as if she was grilling a possible candidate like an FBI agent -- she often sounded so rude to them! Tom, on the other hand, was always friendly and nice. Love him!
Kitty took the role very seriously. But yes, she could be quite the “grill master”.
Kitty Carlisle was all class. I cannot agree she was rude.
As an old soul person for 1967, I ain't gonna lie I really like To Tell The Truth it's one of the shows that I need some laughs as a kid.
Very historical Game Show.
I've been watching in posting order, but I went out of sequence to the last nighttime episode of TTTT because I knew Orson Bean would be on it. (Currently I'm watching the first batch of older shows that Gary was able to procure in mid-posting, going back to the late 50's when Polly Bergen and Ralph Bellamy were regulars on the panel.)
I wanted an episode with Orson because I just got the news that he was killed yesterday, sadly hit by two cars while crossing a street in L.A.
RIP Orson. I always enjoyed your banter and later on your little cartoons when you voted on TTTT. My condolences to Orson's family.
I too was sad to learn of Orson Bean's demise in that terrible incident. But let's be honest. He was not a good game player at all. He continually, throughout his history on this program, went for the laugh (unsuccessfully). He got very little helpful information out of the contestants. My favorite episodes of TTTT are the earlier ones, those without either Peggy Cass or Bean.
According to Wikipedia, Bud Collyer and Orson Bean were political enemies in the entertainers union. Collyer was Conservative and strongly anti-Communist during the 1950s. Bean was Liberal, and worked hard to keep Collyer from becoming the union leader in New York City. CBS most likely kept Bean on the panel, to display dramatic tension between he and Collyer in order to boost the ratings in the New York City market.
Perhaps Goodson and Todman kept Bean on the show for political reasons within the union, to make Collyer’s work life miserable.
The correct names are Lyn Tornabene, Jesse Roper Moherovic and James Norbury
I know others have committed to the same thing but can you imagine a host saying thank you God Bless you. Today
It wouldn't be allowed . Sad isn't it .
God bless you is a meaningless statement.
@@bme7491 That was a meaningless belch.
According to Wikipedia, Bud Collyer was a Presbyterian, and a deeply religious man. He wrote a number of religious books late in his life, and recorded some spoken word recordings of “The New Testament” of “The Holy Bible”.
Congratulations
Wonderful program
I love it
March 2024 Bump? No daytime episodes were uploaded to this channel.
Do they still make Coach House salad dressing? It sounds yummy!
Wikipedia holds grim news. I've eliminated* the gory parts: "The variety in the [Seven Seas Dressings] line has been gutted . . ."
I think it would be wise to ask no further questions. Poochie died on the way back to his home planet. We wouldn't want anything to happen to YOU.

James Norbury is the notable British knitting expert. I have his book! (It’s misspelled Norberry in the description )
Heads should roll.
I’m watching the new version on TV
This is awesome
I was born in July 96 but I like this show. I have a subscription in my phone. And this show the one in the middle with 8 children, when does she start at 8
The show wasn’t done. “To Tell The Truth” with Bob Colliyer continued to run on CBS in daytime only until the final show from 1968 in daytime form.
In 1968, Bud Collyer suffered a very bad heart attack. A young Bert Convy substituted as host, but the daytime version of the show was cancelled before Collyer could return. His final television appearance was as a “Mystery Guest” on the syndicated version of “What’s My Line?”, which was taped shortly after “To Tell The Truth” was cancelled by CBS that Fall.
Collyer did return for the last daytime episodes, but yes, his last TV appearance was as WML mystery guest. In a sad irony, Bud died on the very day that Garry Moore's version of TTTT premiered in Sept. 1969.
Bud Collyer, not Bob Colliyer.
@@LaptopLarry330 I remember my grandmom was watching the daytime show and she was wondering why Bert Convy was the guest host, said more than once "where's Bud? Why is Bert Convy hosting?"

i like bow ties. they are very ‘40’s early ‘50’s; they’re unusual and quite sophisticated. usually, to me as a kid, intellectuals or writers wore them - oh, and Gary Moore. :)
many people in comedy did, too. PeeWee Herman, Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplain, Groucho. . . AND Mickey Mouse and Porky Pig :}
FDR wore one and Churchill, and Daniel Patrick Moynihan. John Daly, Dave Garroway, Charles Osgood, and George Will. even Sinatra wore them sometimes. they have so much more personality! :}
n.b. i was a ‘50’s kid - all these, with a few exceptions, were people we knew then. :) 🌷🌼
OMG8 children!!
0:00 CBS presents this program in lively black & white.
"I didn't go on many dates" Thats good b/c she'd have been breaking the law LOL
Very cool story contestant # 2...
Thank you for archiving these episodes. Question - do videotape copies of any nighttime episodes exist? I remember seeing a few of the daytime version on GSN.
It's BUZZR.
I have really enjoyed this show. I was only familiar with the daytime show with Gary Moore as a toddler and the later Byron Allen version as a teenager.
Garry (two R's is correct) Moore WAS a great toddler. He appears in the Permanent Record, and was one of the 46 children (one from each of the then-States) nominated by President Wilson to attend the Toddlin' Trophy relay race in Chicago, that toddlin' town. Byron Allen was a teenage disappointment. He was often truant, sitting on the bench outside the town soda shop, ankle on knee and toetapping, in a poodle skirt, puffing a Chesterfield (or a Lark, if Chestys were sold out).
Youth is fleeting, which is probably a good thing.

I’m very sad, loved them in black and white
Oh my dog , what happened to Bud's hair !!!!????
I remember videotaping and watching a 1967 episode of “What’s My Line?” on GSN, that featured all of the Goodson-Todman CBS panel show hosts as early “Mystery Guests”. Bud Collyer was there, and I noticed that he let his hair grow long in the back of his head. I was stunned seeing him this way with this hairstyle.
@@LaptopLarry330 ; interesting , thanks for the response !!!!
Than you for this seris. I will miss my 3pm youtubr emails notifications that a new episode is ready to wstch. If I was not going out or esting dinnrt by myself, TTTT was a perfect dinner watching compabion. Great mrmories. I'm guessing all the cast members are gone now...such a pity CBS cancelled it when they did. Again thank you.
And he's been touring the country in a one man show-- very successfully, too! Thanks for the nice comment, Kevin-- so glad you've enjoyed the shows. :)
You're most welcome, hopefully daytime episodes upcoming by chance ?
Yes, definitely, but just bear with me, because it'll probably be a couple of months before I have time to get to it. But I will DEFINITELY be posting what we have available of daytime TTTT. GSN ran several dozen of them.
By the 1960s, it was nearing the end of the line for prime-time game shows and panel shows. When motion picture companies began making television series for the television networks, there became less space for game shows on the prime time broadcast schedule. Production costs became an issue for the networks, also. For example, John Daly was being paid $200,000 per season in the latter years of “What’s My Line” in prime time. He was the highest paid personality on network broadcast television. CBS and NBC could not sustain such costs for these game shows in the long term. ABC was the exception, because of their low production costs for “The Newlywed Game” and “The Dating Game”, thanks to the penny-pinching by Chuck Barris. Even so, by the time cigarette advertisements were banned on network television in 1971, ABC lost those advertisers, and both shows were canceled from the prime time schedule.

20:02-- Gail Sheldon....later to be on the 1970s syndicated Beat The Clock with Jack Narz and then Gene Wood.
Kind of disappointing they only kept a black and white tape of a color broadcast
If the first segment in this video looks familiar, take a look at this. By the way, that's me as #3: ua-cam.com/video/c-p9hrI6bq0/v-deo.html
Why is this not in color? It says it was presented in color.
CBS kinescopes such programs in the 1960s, as they felt that they had little value after copies were distributed to remote TV markets, and to small-market affiliates that shared program time with another network.
WHAT is the story with "CORONET BLUE" (29:00)?? The bait has hooked me already---DON'T tell me "CORONET BLUE" is lost in the ozone!
How do I get the other ones? May 29, 1967 doesn't come up. How do you know what the next episode is?
Every episode of TTTT, as well as those from "What's My Line?" and "I've Got A Secret" from the 1966-67 TV Season should be colorized.
Why? I enjoy seeing this as it was in B&W. The CBS version of TTTT was best.
No
@@jaynerosajohansen4864 I say that because they originally aired on color videotape that television season. Either Goodson-Todman or CBS, for whatever reason, erased those videotapes. Thankfully, they did not do the same for Password, which also went color that season.
@@samiam5557 Because they aired in color that television season, the first season all prime time shows had to be shown in color.
Even though the panel shows/game shows were broadcast in color, CBS chose to make kinescope copies of the episodes, as they felt that they held little value, outside of distribution of copies to affiliates that were in remote locations, or affiliates that shared programming with another network, because of their small market size. “Password “ was the exception, as it was a videotaped production from day one.

Do you happen to have any later 1967 episodes (November/December) and/or 1968 episodes? Thanks in advance.
I came across a color daytime episode of “To Tell The Truth”, with Bud Collyer as host, here on UA-cam. It may be a Fall, 1967 episode, before he suffered his heart attack in 1968. I also came across a 1968 episode, hosted by a young Bert Convy, made while Collyer was in the hospital.
@@LaptopLarry330 Do you happen to have links? Thanks so much.
My PC is down and needs repairs, and I am unable to cut, copy, and paste links. Type in “To Tell The Truth (November 23, 1967)” in the “Search” line. I just found a rare color prime time episode. With the show title, type in “(April 24, 1967)” on the “Search” line. I also found episodes listed as “Daytime 1967 #2”, “To Tell The Truth (CBS Daytime) 1968”, and “To Tell The Truth Daytime (CBS) 9/6/1968”, in which Bud Collyer hosts the show’s final daytime CBS episode in color.
TORNABENE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How come it ended? I thought it was a very successful show?
it came back in color it hasnt endes it went to color 1967 and stay on in 70 and 80 also 90
It was but by the mid-60s its ratings had dropped severely. It finished its last season in 83rd place out of 101 series aired that season.
Game shows that were still on in prime time in the late 60s were falling in the ratings. Prime time audiences wanted more action. Prime time got shortened by an hour (originally it was 7pm to 11pm-- the 7 to 8 hour became the "access hour" by FCC Decree around 1970). These shows were getting old. That's why the later syndicated versions of TTTT, What's My Line, Match Game, Etc. had brighter sets, new more rock n roll sounding music, a more casual appearance (sport coats for men--no bow ties).
CBS killed off the big 3. Secret, what’s my line. TTTT, too many old viewers
@@manidig This was always a funner show though. It def should’ve outlasted What’s My Line
Ok...dumb question: if this show is in color, why is your video B&W?
There were color tapes at this time video tapes were expensive so the networks (NBC CBS and ABC) would usually wipe the tapes to use on other programs the other way was to use kinescopes which was used during this time only about 2 videos i know on UA-cam have the show in color
Respectfully. Peggy Cass made me gaseous
Same here. More and more each year she was on.
The Linguinitorium at Hahvud says there is a word, "Casseous", which was test-flown several times in the 1960s. It failed first because its phonic similarity to the name of an early Roman (he was always up by 5AM); later due to confusion with the champion boxer whose legal name change did not affect recognition and, hence, confusion; a later attempt to insert "Casseous" into the lexicon included the VERY bold move of lowercasing the initial "C", but this was too little (so to speak) too late; Miss Cass's own star had sailed, her ship had left the barn; "casseous", while a bright lexicographical burst, was washed on its port bow by Rowan and Martin's "[sweet] bippy, "The Mod Squad's "solid", and adjective- and verb-ization of nouns. Miss Cass passed away without a word in 1999.
Any in color please
The only color episodes of 1960s game shows that are available for viewing, are the handful of daytime episodes of “Password”, and a handful of daytime episodes of “To Tell The Truth”. There are some color late-1960s/early-1970s syndicated episodes of “What’s My Line?” and “To Tell The Truth” here on UA-cam. A color episode of “To Tell The Truth” (daytime), hosted by Bud Collyer, is as rare as hen’s teeth.
Color? Looks like B&W to me.
It was kinescoped in black-and-white, like it was done for the entire show’s run.
Chiffon. It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature!
"CBS presents this program in color." So, why is this in black and white?
The recorder used black and while film
@@RonGerstein-tf5tp Isn't that obvious?
@@HansDelbruck53 If it is obvious, why did you ask this question in the first place.
@@RonGerstein-tf5tp To trigger a response from someone who didn't get the joke.
@@HansDelbruck53 I think 💯% did not get your "joke".
In living color? Could fooled me.
All recordings were fine using a black and white tape machine.
I knew that Teenage was #3 because you could tell in her face. She was the only one that looked like an grown woman
Which would have been disadvantageous if she had been trying to impersonate a teen. #2 looked the youngest to me.
25:30 asi que de ahí viene will the real slim shady please stand up
This is the worse color I've ever seen. Can only imagine what B/W would look like...😉
Sarcasm sucks, like you
