I attended the taping of the first two episodes of To Tell The Truth with my sisters and aunt from Miami back in 1970 at The Ed Sullivan Theatre in New York City. I was 12 years old and thrilled to be there. It's also a great thrill and surprise to come upon these shows. These episodes bring back great and wonderful memories of meeting the great announcer Johnny Olsen who warmed up the audience; he also was so down to earth that he mingled with us. He was so sweet and kind to my sisters and me; he also gave me his autograph, which I wish I had to this day. I was so sad when this game show moved out west to California along with all the others. New York City was on the decline sociologically and economically during the 1970s, and TV Shows, along with many other high-profile businesses, were all making a move out west. Johnny Olsen became a bigger star when he became the announcer for the game show The Price Is Right; Johnny coined the phrase "Come on down......" A few months later, I received tickets to attend The Ed Sullivan Show's rehearsal which took place on December 13, 1970. This turned out to be the last Holiday Show that Ed Sullivan did; about February of 1971, his show was canceled. I believed that the Ed Sullivan Show was the last variety show produced in New York City; Los Angeles, California, inherited most of New York's TV productions; it was truly a sad decade for New York City.
Dr Jules Montenier, (creator of Stopette)according to Bennett Cerf, did not want to relinquish ad time on 'What's My Line?', and wanted to remain the sole sponsor of the program. But as the show grew in popularity, and markets increased, it eventually caused him to have to sell the company to Helene Curtis Industries as ad time became more expensive. Cerf said that newsapers were running articles about the sale under the title: "Poof... There goes Dr. Montenier!"
The first game in the third episode sounds interesting. I looked this place up, and it appears that McSorley's Old Ale House is still in business to this day.
You can tell Bill was so nervous & intimidated with the big boss there! I thought it was weird, however, that MG emphasized how handsome and attractive the young boys were .
Bill Cullen was also hosting Three on a Match on NBC at the time as well as other games Eye Guess, Winning Streak, Blankety Blanks, Pass the Buck, and Chain Reaction for producer Bob Stewart. Stewart created To Tell The Truth as well as The original Price Is Right and Password for Mark Goodson and Bill Todman and Stewart left Goodson-Todman Productions in less than amiable terms. Cullen continued as a To Tell The Truth panelist but didn't host any other Goodson-Todman games in the late 1960s to the mid 1970s until the 1976 I've Got A Secret primetime run and substituting for an ill Allen Ludden on Password Plus, and then hosting the 1980-1982 Blockbusters and the 1982-1983 Child's Play games. Not sure if there was some resentment from Goodson with Cullen hosting games for rival Bob Stewart.
I saw the Hula hoop at the end of this video my dog that died this year at the age of 15 when she was young would jump through a hula hoop the dog I am referring to is pictured to the left that picture was taken to months before she died.
I just wrote the same, I had the sound off when the episode began and I instantly said they are trans, and when I turned the sound on there wasn't even a tiny bit of doubt.
25:45 Airdate Aug. 25th, 1970.The classic bagel episode! 32:04 the legendary Jack Weinstein explains what a Bialy is. 34:27 I think that's Anne Bancroft in the photo.
38:11)A drag queen? Jean, or John, is a man's name. FRENCH. 42:13)Lee Child's "Bad Luck and Trouble". Page 24. Reacher: "How do you guys know id a card player is cheating?" Security: " If he is winning." Reacher:"People have to win." Security: "They win as much as we let them. Any more than that, they're cheating."
Tex, that's just a big fat lie, you big fathead! Sorry, I had to get that out of my system. But even before the era of political and social correctness, I can remember as a child (growing up in the 1960s) hearing adults refer to obese boys as "stocky" rather than "fat." Still other times people would substitute "chubby" for "fat." So there had obviously been attempts to not insult obese persons even before the political/social correctness era arrived. Except then we just called such behavior "being polite." And being polite is always in style, especially when one is speaking of or to an otherwise nice person who just happens to have gained too much weight for her/his own good. In such cases, perhaps anonymously passing along the address and/or telephone number of an Overeaters Anonymous meeting is the most one should do to help an overweight person. I think that is what etiquette experts Emily Post and "Miss Manners" might also suggest. However one slices those pieces of pie, the fact is we all probably know people who eat too much of that pie and who, if they continue to gorge themslevs and fail to exercise sufficiently, will become fat, as fat as "Fat Fat the Water Rat, fifty bullets in his hat!" And perhaps also as fat as "Fat" of "Fat & Skinny," to wit--"Fat and Skinny had a race/up and down the pillow case/Fatty said it wasn't fair/Because he lost his underwear." Signed, "Pleasantly Plump" (or "Used to Be Thin").
gymnastix --- No offense taken. Which brings us to the crux of modern liberal thought. There are too many self-appointed saviors whose goal in life seems to be to keep every person on the planet from having their feelings hurt. They come up with a speech code that borders on the absurd, and that code is ever changing. Example: In Australia, the Santas across the country were told to refrain from saying, "Ho Ho ho." That, according to the overly sensitive libs, would scare children and offend women. So the Santas were instructed to say, "Ha ha ha." That really happened. There is no Utopia on this planet, and the U.S. Constitution does not guarantee us from being offended. Yes, we should be considerate of others' feelings, but we are headed for the day when laws will prescribe what we can and cannot say. The Amendment protecting free speech will be tossed out the window. My previous comment was a knee jerk reaction to the extreme absurdity of political correctness. I would never tell someone that they are fat. So maybe my comment makes me a fathead. Freedom of speech is a precious thing, but the insane political correctness of today is slowly eroding that freedom. Peace out!
I wonder if the husband of the fat woman would love her as much if she list a lit of weight. I wonder if her enables her if his preference is large women. I hope it wasnt her size that attracted him in the end. Its not healthy to be too overweight.

It was fun to watch! Great! 👍😀👍
I attended 2 tapings of TTTT in July 1965(I was 12 yrs old)! I love TTTT
I loved the hula hoop when I was a kid. Wouls have been doing it at that rime. I was 10 in 1970. That kid was good!
Love this show,i remember as a kid in the early to late 1970's when they used to show game shows everyday of the week
Its nice seeing them in colour!
I love all TTTT eras but my favorite and the one I grew up with is this era with Garry, Kitty, Peggy and Bill!! And Bill is a darned good host too
Don't forget celebrities like Gene Rayburn, NIpsey Russell, Alan Alda, and Orson Bean who were part of the panel.
Love Bill Cullen just a nice man
Both Bill Cullen and Mark Goodson got their starts as CBS Radio staff announcers in the 1940s
A Hug From Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
A wonderful collection of shows, especially the last segment (I never could master the hula-hoop) :)
I'm always amazed at Peggy's questions. Her knowledge of so many subjects. Kitty was the glamor and Peggy the brains.
In other words, the Daphne and Velma of TTTT.
Peggy is often scary AF in how she quickly pinpoints on specific things. Any criminal would squirm under her questioning.
I never thought Kitty was attractive in any way.
Thanks for uploading these three episodes. The syndicated version of TTTT is my favorite
Kitty Carlyle and Peggy Cass were my favorites on this show
Peggy looked much better in older years with her hair pulled back and nicely applied eye makeup.
#3 on the blackjack one looks VERY modern!
I think it was adorable that the wife tugged on #2's beard, even though he was just an imposter. That was cute.
The last game was awesome! Then again, so was the third game! "Bag-a-bagels"
Love this show! It's to funny. Also, love the theme song/musical.
"Get out of the way. Talk to my friends about their product." Genius.
Love the set design

I love the look on Kitty's face at 1:07:15 where she must be thinking, "Do I really have to do this?" Yeah, go on Kitty.
The first game in the third episode sounds interesting. I looked this place up, and it appears that McSorley's Old Ale House is still in business to this day.
You can tell Bill was so nervous & intimidated with the big boss there! I thought it was weird, however, that MG emphasized how handsome and attractive the young boys were .
Baloney, Bill already was a grizzled veteran. MG gave me the willies

Cullen been in the giggle water!!
Something about Mark Goodson always creeped me out. With respect
Me too, but with no respect
@@dorothykilgallenwasmurdere1653 me too, with partial disrespect
Bill-cullen the first host of the price is right the legendary game-show host and panelist professor yes n no himself.
Every time I hear "Number One, what is your name?" I want to hear "Sir Robin of Camelot!" in response.
Peggy Cass was married to a former Jesuit priest from 1979 until her death in 1999.
Thanks for that. How did she like her eggs ?
Being fat is really bad for your health but people who are like that should not be made fun of or treated differently.
I've been 300 lbs and now I'm 170 and everyone says I look sickly
44:08 Wow! Raye Wilder is gorgeous!
I saw the Hula hoop at the end of this video my dog that died this year at the age of 15 when she was young would jump through a hula hoop the dog I am referring to is pictured to the left that picture was taken to months before she died.
Esse programa existe, pois eu quero participar 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Maybe I'm incorrect but Gussy #1 appears to have been transgender.
100%
I just wrote the same, I had the sound off when the episode began and I instantly said they are trans, and when I turned the sound on there wasn't even a tiny bit of doubt.
Let the hate comments begin
Does anyone think that #2 of the bagel makers reminds you of Peter Strzok?
Who the phuck is that ?
With respect
2nd show 1st game. #2 sounds like Jerry Lewis.
I thought number two was going to say he was a stand-up comic
Kirby looks like Ralph Kiner
what happen to his voice number 2
I'm a chubby chaser but that's more woman than I can handle. With respect
25:45 Airdate Aug. 25th, 1970.The classic bagel episode! 32:04 the legendary Jack Weinstein explains what a Bialy is. 34:27 I think that's Anne Bancroft in the photo.
That's not Anne Bancroft, that's Peggy Cass.
She said so herself.
@@pem1974 It does look like AB but it's annoying PC
Who is jack weinstein. What became of him
Bill Cullen with the casual wife beating joke wtf???
I'm not saying this to be mean but I somehow remember thinking Peggy was quite overweight. Watching this I have no idea what ever made me think that.
Peggy Cass irritates the stuffing out of me.
The buzzer that replaced the original bell was awful. 😖
I dont like Peggy Cass so much in this version. She is a bit over the top. I like her in the earlier shows in the 60s. Shes taking over here.
32:05 Max Weinstein's so over the top!
Jack, not Max
07:19 what a baleful face. He exuded evil and you could tell just by looking at him he had a predatory, bad temper.
38:11)A drag queen? Jean, or John, is a man's name. FRENCH.
42:13)Lee Child's "Bad Luck and Trouble". Page 24.
Reacher: "How do you guys know id a card player is cheating?"
Security: " If he is winning."
Reacher:"People have to win."
Security: "They win as much as we let them. Any more than that, they're cheating."
51:12 Kazuma (from Konosuba) would be proud #genderequality
No 2 was doing a bad Jerry Lewis!
Peggy was so irritating, with respect
Speaking of fat Peggy Cass looks great here! She looks like she lost a lot of weight
The fat comments would never be tolerated in this politically correct country. Can't even call a person fat anymore.
Tex, that's just a big fat lie, you big fathead!

The set looks like a drug trip.
Bill Cullen acts drunk!
Raving lunatic

Peggy Cass, the female Tom Poston, 2 most annoying" celebrities" of my lifetime
With respect
I'd love to find out more about Jack Weinstein (Number 2 of the bagel section 🥯 ). What a character. Google has nothing apart from a judge of the same name.
Anyone know?
I’m trying to find out too
