To Tell The Truth - Episode 0701 (1971)

[@kt9166]

This version of To Tell The Truth is the one I remember from when I was young---WOW! That psychedelic set! And that theme!

[@jcmhanel1]

Wow, they have talked about a four day 40 hour work week for years. Even in 2023. I’m not sure that that has come about in most places.

[@commercialzone4141]

GREAT show! Thank you so much for uploading it.

[@Greenwings701]

Wow, before Martha Mitchell became renown for serious truth-telling.

[@troylowe814]

It's interesting seeing her before the Watergate scandal. I'm surprised she wasn't murdered by the Nixon camp.

[@HoofinOG]

That's the first thing I thought.

[@Bleda412]

I know what you're referring to, but not quite: By November 1970, a Gallup poll indicated that 76 percent of Americans recognized who she was, and she was featured on the cover of Time in an issue about the most influential women of Washington.[1] Her reputation for frank and uncensored talk that was generally in support of Republican issues led to her being nicknamed "Martha the Mouth" or "The Mouth of the South".[17]

[@LimitlessThinker]

Julia Roberts really played Martha Mitchell's story so well. It's so cool to see this episode. The man who created so many game shows Mark Goodson, is actually participating on this show.

[@orbison]

He even hosted the show a few times through the different versions of TTTT, right up to 1991 when Alex Trebek was hosting.

[@RonGerstein]

I never realized how insane Martha Mutchell was

[@mercoid]

🎼 ba ba ba ba buh ba buh BAAAA! 🎶

[@brendalg4]

When I see the set, the song automatically plays in my head

[@SeldimSeen1]

Martha Mitchell was as sane as rain. It is just beyond horrible how her husband had her kidnapped and detained. It is even more horrible how the goons who kidnapped her got away with it.

[@938quilt]

wow I've never heard of her - I had to google then go to my library's catalog! interesting!

[@peregrino9154]

The set designer was dropping acid.

[@SueBeaWho]

Lol

[@MrTrashcan1]

I watched TTTT in the '60s in the afternoons hosted by Bud Collyer. I don't remember this set or series, or that Garry Moore hosted it, but somehow I remember the theme song and music very well--and like it.

[@HoofinOG]

The theme song might as well have been composed by the Byrds. This is version I knew as a youngster. Maybe just vague memories of Bud Collyer. Johnny Olson's voice was all over CBS.

[@MrTrashcan1]

@@HoofinOG I don't believe it was, but it sounds a lot like them.

[@HoofinOG]

@@MrTrashcan1 I think it was a copycat of the Byrds.

[@ccie12933]

From Wikipedia: This version featured a lyrical, pop music-styled theme song written and composed by Score Productions chief Bob Israel and Truth producer Paul Alter, along with veteran theme composer Charles Fox; an instrumental, and orchestral, version would be used for the 1990 series.

[@RonGerstein]

Bud Collyer was the host of TTTT when it was first run on the CBS network. When TTTT was syndicated, Gary Moore was the first host, and then Joe Garagiola.

[@cinrambrad]

First round imposter #3 was really , really good looking........

[@RebeccaStropoli]

They all look a bit creepy/greasy, honestly, but I do think #3 somewhat resembles a very young Jon Voight.

[@kevin6667]

Just send $5 to Cambridge MASS… no zip code (yet?) or address necessary.. crazy! Sad too.. cuz I’m old enough to remember those days!

[@michaelhigginbotham2518]

I could tell by #2 looks he was it. He looks like his dad!!

[@brendalg4]

Still dont have a change to the 5 day week unless covid changes get us there

[@SeldimSeen1]

Registered Nurses have had 4 day a week shifts for many years now. They are 12 hours each day. This is very handy for Nursing staff to be able to have that extra day to meet the needs of her family or even sleep.

[@RonGerstein]

​@@SeldimSeen1 That happens only in hospitals.

[@Rusty3659]

Bill Baird's Mouseketeer, Sharon Baird's father.

[@GeorgeMaster-xg7lg]

Where's Kitty?

[@bluebear1985]

Must have had a prior commitment at the time this was taped.

[@GeorgeMaster-xg7lg]

@@bluebear1985 Gotcha!

[@jackbusby9602]

In the second round (which was way too short) hardly anyone spoke to number 2...

[@LaptopLarry330]

If Margaret Mitchell was scheduled to appear on the show, it was no surprise that Kitty Carlisle would kindly step aside to let her be there. Mark Goodson was there as a panelist, so that no smart-mouthed celebrity or comedian would say anything to offend the wife of a high- level Federal Government Cabinet member.

[@LaptopLarry330]

Correction: Martha Mitchell.

[@donaldleroy6502]

Before I find out the real Peter Baird I'm going to guess that he's number two. Turns out I was right, I thought it was number two because he looks like his father 😊

[@jackbusby9602]

In my opinion, it ain't TTTT without Kitty. And also in my opinion, Bud Colyer was a much more enjoyable host. Garry hogged way too much air time...

[@RonGerstein]

​@@robertdesantis6205 THEN DON'T WATCH THE EPISODES WITH THE NEWER COLOR SET.

[@WOFandTPIRfan]

Im literally watch it too Chad

[@jnadle1]

Did the real Peter Baird become an audio mixer in LA, or was it some other Peter Baird?

[@seanstark4312]

Sadly the real Peter Baird passed away in 2004, but he left an amazing legacy.

[@MarciaSouza-tv1wv]

Aceito cartas telefonemas, Márcia do BRAZIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@LloydAntonyLB]

How much does Baird #1 look like Mark Hamill? 😮

[@James-ko3gw]

I agree. Good eye.

[@weltonvillegal6258]

Thought the same!

[@michellepost3098]

I watched this game when new, hosted by Garry Moore, when I was a child. I don't remember the version during 1977 by another host, and I was in high school then. That puppet on this I don't remember, but is annoying. Bill Cullen was cute.

[@RonGerstein]

When Gary Moore had a health scare, he left as host, and Joe Garagiola became host.

[@The.Oracle.]

Wow! Talk about the USA not changing! Let’s catch up with the EU.

[@HikikoAmore]

this feels like time travel
