According to the book Alex came running up to tell Mark Jean was in labor about 15 minutes before they were to start taping, Mark didn't even hesitate and basically said "Go! We'll figure something out."
1:55 I dont know if Alex ever did bring the baby on the show. There was one episode not long on classic concentration where a contestant did bring her new baby to the studio with her, Alex insisted on bringing him on camera while the contestant introduced herself. After Alex put him back down he said because he waited so long to have a kid of his own, any time he got a chance to pick up someone else's baby he did. ❤ He clearly loved kids.
GOD Bless our Troops who deserve our respect !
Goodson was more than good, he was excellent. It’s rare he hosts his own game shows.
Alex said in his book that Mr. Goodson still paid him for the whole week of shows after he filled in. A class act.

@@marcpower4167 Imagine if it was Jonathan Goodson...he would have to still do the show anyway, I bet.
@@drummingdanny84 Jonathan probably would have sacked Trebek and brought in Garry Moore barely alive in a wheelchair since he loves his has-beens
This wasn't the first time Mark Goodson as a sub host of To Tell the Truth. In 1967, Mark subbed for Bud Collyer.
rest in peace Alex Trebek & Orson Bean
And Mark Goodson

Mark mentions Alex's wife Jean having a baby boy. He's talking about Matt.
Jean is pregnant oh my God
@@fornitegood122jr6 She was when this episode was taped.
How do you think Mark Goodson did as a game show host? He should've hosted in the 1st place.
I thought he did a really good job
Producers rarely emcee
