I liked when they showed everyone socializing at the end. Years later, that was done on SNL.

Kitty wouldn't know the difference between a baseball and a basketball....duh!!!

[@MrBohuslav]

Correct name is Felipe Pomar (b. 1943).

Let's go surfin now , everyone is learnin how !

[@AbhinavS.R.]

Having lived in Kuwait, just hearing Number 1 speak out her name in her trueblue Arab accent, made me sure she was the real Basima Al Gusain, even before hearing the two!

Many cars then were clutches, lacked power steering and power brakes, hence Tom's question.

[@leesher1845]

There’s some people who like to collect garbage??

[@turtlesoup3624]

Surprised at first that one of the imposters would admit to being between jobs, but on second thought, maybe she's hoping somebody would hire her after seeing her on the show ..

Find it interesting the female contestants were actually wearing knee-length or below skirts/dresses given above the knee skirts by this point had become the fashion.

[@michaelcox436]

Tom just can't accept that a woman could drive a car well.

[@BigEightiesNewWave]

Philippe Fumar ? 😂 Give him carton of smokes.

[@CoxJoxSox]

LOL, Kitty - what an insult asking if the ruler of Kuwait was enlightened because he went to a western university - I'd say that might be the source of non-enlightenment

[@leesher1845]

That was a different time and Kuwait was very undeveloped.

Sounds like Lee Vines, who was also announcing "Password" then, filling in for Johnny O. on this "TTTT" episode.

0:42 “To Tell The Truth is brought to you this evening by the #danganronpa blood.” Game #1: Felipe Pomar is still alive - and still surfs - to this day. Just search in KZbin some videos of him still rocking at OVER 70 years of age. Legend has it he even surfed a tsunami. Truly a legend. Game #2: Any lady of the three could be a model, and I would not say anything. Also, i believe is a gesture of political incorrectness not to make her ware a veil, as a sort of “Operation Sympathy” by part of the Kuwaiti government. Also, I believe Kuwait was the only non communist country to abolish taxes at the time, and had an envying welfare state. Kuwait was on everyone mind in 1991, during the invasion by Hussain’s Iraq and the subsequent Gulf War…

Are you off your meds again?

[@OttoVanBismarckq80]

“What does a Muslim know about AD and BC” so it’s gota be her. Turns out she’s actually western. What an asinine and racist comment it’s a shame they did not come back and address it.

[@kristabrewer6736]

Islam isn't a RACE. It's a false RELIGION!

[@jimmygoodrich9590]

Says the bigot

[@AbhinavS.R.]

What a typical modern specimen you are. His honest doubt about someone living in the Middle East.
