To Tell the Truth - JFK's tailor; PANEL: Dina Merrill, Johnny Carson (Feb 5, 1962)

[@jeffreygiles5315]

The 83-year-old woman who Joseph Granahan rescued was my grandmother. I was seven years old at the time. I never met Granahan, so this video means a great deal to me. My grandmother lived in a tenement on east 34th St. When the tenement adjacent to it was demolished to make way for the Warren House on the northeast corner of 3rd Ave. and 34th St., my grandmother's tenement fell into the space where the other tenement had stood. It should have been buttressed. Granahan's rescue was a courageous and heroic act.

Thanks for sharing. I’m sorry you never got to meet him.

@@peternagy-im4be I'm not familiar with that term.

@Jeffrey Giles Thank you for sharing!

[@joswanell5792]

Joseph Granahan, the 1st set of contestants, is a true blue hero. Someone to really look up to.

[@juangalt3496]

The first group won about $80 each and today a carton of Salems costs almost that much. Probably more in NY.

[@kenyongray2615]

This show always pulls off a surprise or two every once in a while. I wonder where Johnny met the very attractive Barbara Cooper. Thanks for the video.

[@ChrisHansonCanada]

13:08 The best looking number "1" ever drawn by a human.

[@dejpsyd0421]

It drives me NUTS that they don’t make time to ask the real person any questions 😡

[@kelleykidder7787]

Bias is the diagonal slant. I thought for sure the tailor was #3. Love this show.

[@leesher1845]

Peggy was very good at this game.

That would be awesome if a relative of Sam Harris the New York tailor to JFK, could tell us about JFK and the other people he was a tailor to and if they would want to become a tailor.

[@93Jubilee]

No hero would say he "got a strained back out of it" --

[@leesher1845]

I’ll never understand parents kissing their children on the lips, especially when they’re the opposite sex and adults.

[@gemoftheocean]

Exactly. Very creepy.

[@rosered103]

I hear you.

[@cherylschantz9893]

It’s a cultural thing.

[@jw77019]

People didn’t used to think anything was wrong because any possibility of a physical relationship was unfathomable.

[@JonesNate]

For round 1, #1 looked like he was reminiscing during the affidavit reading. Round 3; #3 was the only contestant with his tie straight.

[@ChrisHansonCanada]

8:01 BEST MOMENT!

[@lifewithemilysyndromelivin9956]

Bud's daughter has his eyes

[@lisal8984]

Apparently she has his lips too lol

[@ChrisHansonCanada]

2:00 Tom Poston's rambling weirdness.

[@jw77019]

Dina Merrill’s mother built Mar-a-Lago. She was Marjorie Post, heiress of Post Cereal. Can you imagine how revolted they would all be were they still with us.

[@davesuiter]

Two Hundred and Fifty bucks and a carton of smokes. Not a bad haul.

[@wingfoot48]

PROBUALY WORTH AT LEAST 10 TIMES THAT TODAY

[@denakwilliams5941]

#1 looked like Johnny's type😅

[@janeiwasduncan8463]

Johnny was rude in his comments about waiters. They are hard workers, get lousy pay and have to put up with rude patrons, much like the likes of people like Carson.

[@davesuiter]

He's a comedian; if anything, he probably incited others to increase their tip size!

[@janeiwasduncan8463]

My pastor's mother was a hard working waitress and when he mentioned her he usually tells us to leave a generous tip. You should too.!!🎈🎈

[@peternagy-im4be]

Yes but on this show Carson seemed to be pretty dedicated to being a major league asshole. And he succeeded.

[@kristabrewer9363]

What IS it with Tom and the #1?

[@keithnaylor1981]

I think he really wanted to congratulate the hero but maybe he realised he was going on a bit to much and he just seemed to dry up. It was a bit weird, but he usually seems a really nice polite guy, except the other week when he mysteriously just got up and walked off the show without saying a word. That was even more wired!

@I've seen the Twinkie and the damage done - for the strange walk off search for: To Tell the Truth Champion cart racer 25:40.

[@keithnaylor1981]

@I've seen the Twinkie and the damage done - I will watch it again. Love the shows from this period. I also watch What’s My Line, The Names the Same, and best of all You Bet Your Life with Groucho Marx.

[@leesher1845]

New Yorkers don’t know how to pronounce Carnegie; Pittsburghers do! 😜

[@elliebellie7816]

Car-NAY-gee?

[@hrhqueene]

Whenever Bud's family members appear, they never get votes.

[@kristabrewer9363]

I don't remember the voting, but his wife AND his brother were on here. And now his daughter

[@zefallafez]

His daughter-in-law was on an episode too.

[@geraldkatz7986]

His son was on in the early years of the show.

[@davidfritz2957]

Didn't Barbara Cooper grow up to become Valerie Bertinelli?

[@ChrisHansonCanada]

Man #1 in Game #1 Lady #1 in Game #2 Man #2 in Game #3

[@gemoftheocean]

Why do you enjoy potentially spoiling someone's enjoyment? You're leaving the same stupid comment on every TTTT episode. Stop it. It's a bloody bore.

[@peternagy-im4be]

He's a pathetic childish troll. 🙄

[@denakwilliams5941]

Yippee a carton of Salem cigarettes LOL

[@Thompsonnw]

Good god! I really don't smoke.
