Here from the courier movie! Well played and a great watch

[@sodaville]

Who's here after the Courier?

[@Krillinish2]

13:19 can confirm in 2021 it’s a thriller. Saw The Courier last night.

[@L-Anded]

In the third contest, the number 2 contestant made a slip when answering the "can't Purple Martin houses be built here?" He said, "yes we can build them here." He obviously was a New York resident.

[@acousticshadow4032]

How so? He's only acknowledging that he's currently in NYC. He's not saying he lives there.

[@maureen5540]

Holy crap... that magician is so awesome

[@janeiwasduncan8463]

Where is he now.He should be in his 70s or so.

The dead giveaway should've been him hawking the damn book and being annoying about it.

*Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria was the chief of the Soviet Secret Police (the NKVD) for most of Stalin's tenure as dictator of the USSR. Beria was executed shortly after Stalin's death. (And, like Stalin himself, Beria was a Georgian--not a Russian.)*

[@hughmanatee7657]

Amazing for Wynne to appear on an American TV game show after all he’d been through and accomplished. I suppose his publisher would have put him up to it.

[@audw2534]

In game #1, I love that contestant #3 pulled out the chair for the female contestant. Ahhh, be still my heart.

When men were nagged into being bicycles for fish.

[@acousticshadow4032]

They all did it before feminism took a good hold on America. 😂🤣😂

[@H.L.-fj6zd]

Speaking the truth with a clear conscience is a great gift, and their clearly their deeds will be honestly appreciated, remembered and celebrated. Although, the lier who is the original speaker of lies, becomes consumed in their own deceitful words, deceitful ways, and is consumed in their own deceptive folly, and inevitably, manifests, as a dead soul in a mortal’s body, without any sense of a conscience. - haven

Watched The Courier movie, here because of it!...All I learnt is after 60 years of main stream TV is it's still shit!

[@catbriggs8362]

If you want to read a fantastic book, get "A Train to Potevka" by Mike Ramsdell -- It's a true story about an American who was a Russian spy. It's one of the best I've read. And, it really gave me an idea why, as some say here, Spy #3 looked wild.

[@kenbrown438]

Peggy is wearing a wig , don't you think !!!!!????

[@kenbrown438]

It's amazing that this show is giving away more 💰 money than the future To Tell The Truth with Gary Moore as host !!!!

Tom Postman always delivered.

I'm a guitar player and I palm my pick for songs in which I sometimes finger pick and use the pick at other times. I learned this skill by messing around with magic tricks as a kid.

[@acousticshadow4032]

Yeah, but can you make the guitar dance around your body without holding onto it? 😂

[@Trefoile]

The magician was impressive.

[@kakoiigaijin]

@16:30 what an insult to a true hero.

[@EgbertWilliams]

It was a snarky joke responding to his own snarkiness about the book, but I don't think any true insult was meant. It just hit a little close to the mark (no pun intended).

[@mikeclark7429]

Just watched the courier on dvd so it was an easy call.

MrGoldenThroat How Randy Lovering Knew It Was Lee Vines Who Took Over For Johnny Olson On The Nighttime Edition Of To Tell The Truth On May 23rd 1966?

[@randylovering24]

Mark Kowal Because Johnny Olsen was also announcer​ on the Jackie Gleason show

[@michaelcox436]

Orson is especially obnoxious in this one.

[@maureen5540]

Wow does the 3rd guy in game 2 seem like an angry spy?

[@maureen5540]

Of course if I went through hell having to watch my back 24-7 I may be angry appearing too

[@elizabethmayberry3414]

I’d imagine 2 years in a Soviet prison as a spy might leave some marks. In his movie tone release clips he’s pretty giant snd stressed looking.

I’d love to know who n2 is?

[@DavidBrown-dj7tw]

Why do I push the mute button when Peggy "screech" Cass begins to talk? Because I can't listen to fingernails on a chalkboard, that's why. Damn, she was annoying.

Lee Vines

Right Randy!
