Bert didn't know it at the time, but Mark Goodson saw something in his eased conversation and ad-libbing. You could say this show served as an audition which led to Tattletales.
@@newstarcadefan i wonder if that was to fend off _Another World_ which was riding high thanks to Missy Palmer's (Carol Roux) murder trial at that time. AW was beating TTTT pretty badly (hence CBS wanting Bert to get the younger demos)
@@newstarcadefan I wonder if CBS considered having Bert replace Bud rather than expanding _Search For Tomorrow_ to a half hour (ditto with _The Guiding Light_ then)
An episode of the daytime version, which debuted in 1962 and by this time, had the panelists from the cancelled prime-time version. It would end the following year, as then CBS daytime VP Fred Silverman disliked game shows, feeling they attracted an older, less advertiser desirable audience than did soap operas. And it only had two rounds a day because a five-minute news update followed it.
I wonder how she is now. It must have been so difficult for her to have him divorce her after 30 years. Their marriage always appeared to be rooted in an abundance of love, mutual respect. He always spoke so highly of her. Perhaps the brain tumor was affecting his mind, changing him from the kind, upbeat, optimistic, glib multi-talented man to a darker personality obsessed with his aging. Easy prey for an ambitious woman younger than his daughter.
The questions the panelists should have asked separately of Bert Convy and the three women claiming to be his wife Anne. 1). What is the first name of Bert’s mother? 2). What is the color of the car does Anne drive?
This is one where I turn away from the video and listen in case I know what Anne looks like. And. I do. Also I think it’s sad, Super Passwodd was the last game show until the emptiness of the 90’s. Bert hosted it. Died of brain cancer short after it ended, before that he married his new wife Catherine and about that time he divorced Anne. It’s a sad history. But it’s true.
Well the truth is that he and Anne had actually been separated for years. They were entangled in a very bitter divorce and the only reason it ended when it did was because Bert got the diagnosis that he was dying and he went to Anne and begged her to finish the divorce so he could marry that other woman, told Anne he would not fight her on anything. They divorced in 1991, he married the other woman 5 months before he died. Sad too because he and Anne were technically married for 33 years!
Actually, his final show was the Third Degree. I remember watching that show on WPXI way back in the day. Though if you do research against that show...it's pretty messed up how that went down.
It was October or November '67 that the set was overhauled. There's a clip from 11/23/67 uploaded by philofarnsworth that has the final set (though, notably, not the final theme tune).
Like all game show host, .they can't act! They go to Hollywood, at best end up... A game show host, do summer stock, and at best a spot on the love boat! With all the retirees who needs a buck!
R.I.P. to Bert Convy and Bud Collyer, Bert died so young...:(
Even as a child, Bert Convy was my all time favorite game show host. He just had that “Ji nais sais quoi” about him. I really liked his vibe…….
WOW A color episode of to tell the truth with original commercials thanks buzzr !!!
And very pastel looking.
Bert was an actor before he became a game show host. He was friends with Burt Reynolds and the two produced Win, Lose, or Draw about the time he died.
He was also in the original Broadway production of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF...
Thank you for another rare color episode of Bud Collyer's "To Tell the Truth"!

That, and he actually took over for Bud while he was on Vacation over Robert Q. Lewis (whom Goodson wanted, but CBS Vetoed).
@@newstarcadefan Lewis had guest hosted episodes of the prime-time version.
@@tomservo56954 that's probably primarily why Goodson wanted him to host on the first place. Though again, CBS wanted baby face for the housewives.

This baby was named Jonah
Bert was so handsome. Gone way too soon.
Some of my favorite episodes of Tattletales are the ones where Anne appears, so I recognized her immediately ❤️

A beautiful couple, indeed!
In the early years, I remember watching Bert Convy as a celebrity on shows like “Match Game,” “I’ve Got A Secret” and “What’s My Line?”
The questions the panelists should have asked separately of Bert Convy and the three women claiming to be his wife Anne.
1). What is the first name of Bert’s mother?
2). What is the color of the car does Anne drive?
Car maybe would work, but I assume the liars would be prepped in some way with that info
17:09 Tom Poston snaps at Orson Bean. It did not look like he was joking.
That's that dry humor he was so good at ❤
I'm surprised Bert didn't give away who his wife was like he would later constantly do with Super Password puzzles
Well, the Convys stuck with the "J" theme; this Convy turned out to be, Jonah.
Just like Orson suggested!
Bert sub hosted TTTT at least once.
According to Wikipedia, they divorced in 1991. Wikipedia also says that he remarried that same year, and died in July of that year.
They ran the rotating numbers all the way to 9 on the third contestant in Game #2 (29 votes)--and he won!
They were married for 32 years and then divorced. 😢 He remarried five months before he died.

delishiousness thanks for the info :). Still a sad story for such a brilliant host! Damn!
@@poolside16190 So sad, and not only a brilliant host but from all accounts from people who knew him, he was truly a kind soul
delishiousness She probably got tired of his continuous flirting with other women on air.

Sugar crisps sounds like bing Crosby !
It was Gerry Matthews. Bing supposedly threatened to sue.
I want Sugar r crisp cereal
I have a crush on Bert convy .... He was super fine with those dimples and dark hair. And his personality seems chill. 😍
Same! 🥰
4:01 Obvious edit. Perhaps Tom’s question d and the initial reaction were too hot for TV standards and practices in that era.
Oh is that what Bert Convey was famous for! (Being in Cabaret)
Recorded on October 13, 1967.
Happy Birthday, Bert!
In my humble opinion dead people don't have birthdays
*that no one asked for lol
Aired in mid-November 1967.
He was handsome!
Was this recorded in the Ed Sullivan Theatre?
You can tell by the audience seating that it is what would become known as the Ed Sullivan Theater.
They did pick the name Joshua .
No, Joshua was already born. This one turned out to be the baby, Jonah
Anne was pregnant with Jonah at the time.
THE WB: GAME SHOW IN BUZZR

So thanks to the slate, it is now known that show brought in a more color-friendly set at either after October 1967 in the same year, or in 1968.
It was October or November '67 that the set was overhauled. There's a clip from 11/23/67 uploaded by philofarnsworth that has the final set (though, notably, not the final theme tune).

You get to the topic of juvenile sentencing and suddenly the wokest person in the room is… Kitty Carlisle? 🤯
Peggy was a lil bit bitchy to Kitty 🙄
