That looks like NBC (probably studio 6A) in Rockefeller Center, NYC. Been there many times. Always great to hear the voice of the legendary Jonny Olson.
I’m fascinated by the technical aspect of this in 1969-70. Are they super imposing with blue screen to put the images on those flats in front of the panel? They’re surely not actual tubes .The other rig I thought about- perhaps the cathode is mounted facing up and has a mirror showing us the image (it snaps in and out way too cleanly for that, though). Any thoughts?
If anyone over 60 who was the 4th panel on these episodes, please let me know: 1) Keir & Susan Duella, Regis & Joy Philbin, Earl & Rosemary Wilson 2) Skitch & Ruth Henderson, Jack Cassidy & Shirley Jones, Vidal & Beverly Sassoon

Love this!
I liked how all the men chimed in on waistline, LOL. XD
Anymore episodes that haven't already been uploaded to TH-cam?
The producers of this show, Goodson-Todman Productions, reworked this show a few years later into the far more successful "Tattletales".

What beats me is why NBC still had the orthicon tube cameras in 1970 when the better-quality plumbicon tube cameras were well in use by then.

Pre tattletales.
Did You Know who substituted for Joe as emcee of this program when Joe was at calling baseball? He is on the panel.
Absolutely correct. Bill Cullen could step into any format in an instant and look totally at home. What a great emcee he was.
