To Tell the Truth - Navy blimp pilot; Badminton champ; PANEL: Janis Paige (Apr 21, 1960)

[@videox222ify]

Ms. Paige celebrates her 95th birthday later this year. I wrote to her in 2016 and she was so kind to autograph a lovely classic photo of herself for me. Ms. Paige is 1 of less than 100 people living (many of whom were children) that starred in motion pictures during the 1940’s.

[@dejpsyd0421]

I was just noticing how gorgeous she is sitting on the panel here. To think of her at 95 (if she’s still alive she’d be 103 now if 2023) I just can’t imagine. I’ll go googlee her now! If your numbers are right she was 40 during the shooting of this episode…and she sure looks younger than that!

Geez there isn’t a subject that Kitty Carlyle thinks she’s an expert in 🙄

WOW! that last one surprised me! that last contestant in the 3rd one looked scared to death standing up there!

[@walkingtrails7776]

contestant number two's smile was so contagious I watched it over again because it made me laugh seriously! wonder what ever happened to that guy😂😁

[@doctorjames7454]

I loved it, too! And I found out that he is still living and doing well at age 79: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tan_Joe_Hok

Watched it twice.

[@rmelin13231]

Wasn't that a joy to watch! His smile captured the entire stage.

Janis Paige just celebrated her 100th Birthday...

[@MrBohuslav]

In game #1, contestant #1 is singer Ron Marshall (1932-2000). Correct name is Anita Ehrman (1935-1963).

[@marcpanighi2419]

Thank you for the correct name. I red she was found dead at home. She was only 28.

[@kenyongray2615]

It was great having Janis Paige on the panel. We know by now that Tom Poston was a pilot in the Air Force during WW2. In fact, his plane flew paratroopers over Normandy. Bud is always a pro.

[@rmelin13231]

Just a side note - we Air Force veterans like to point out that there was no Air Force during WWII. Just a technicality, but the Air Force was formed in 1947.

Amazing that Janis Paige will turn 100 in less than a month!

[@enriquesanchez2001]

Poor Anita Ehrman, she only had three more years to live. Died at 28, natural causes. Loved her personality! ♥

Cute segment with the badminton player.

Can anyone tell me what was up between Bud and Polly

Nothing at all brudda

Game #2 player 2 had amazing legs, which led me to him right off the bat! He was charming.

[@tennissir1986]

Every new viewer thanks you for that.

[@63utuber]

Yup ... he looked like a badminton player - did the celebs think it was too obvious?

[@JustinDesrochers]

May she rest in peace Janis Paige ....NEW YORK (AP) - Janis Paige, a popular actor in Hollywood and in Broadway musicals and comedies who danced with Fred Astaire, toured with Bob Hope and continued to perform into her 90s, has died. She was 101. Paige died Sunday of natural causes at her Los Angeles home, longtime friend Stuart Lampert said Monday.

Game #2: Can any Indonesian or Malaysian in the comments (since the language is similar) say what is correct pronunciation of the Badminton player name?

[@loissimmons6558]

There was a well-traveled major league relief pitcher in the 1960's and 70's whose name had the same pronunciation, but his last name was spelled Hoerner. He pitched in 493 regular season major league games, all in relief, for Houston, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Kansas City, Texas and Cincinnati. He was a member of the 1967 World Champion St. Louis Cardinals although he pitched poorly in that series (ERA of 40.50) and not very well in the following season's World Series (lost one game) in the World Series that the Cardinals lost to the Tigers in 7 games. He was also known as part of the trade between the Cardinals and Phillies that included Curt Flood. Although Flood lost the suit, when he refused to report and filed suit against major league baseball, it was an important step on the road to free agency for major league players.

[@sbalman]

I know Tom Poston was a pilot but, does anyone ever wonder how come every time guest pilots are on, they usually have no idea what he is asking about?

[@susanrutherford866]

He flew in World War 2. A very experienced pilot .

[@anthonyquillen5300]

Tom Poston was in the Army Air Corp like my DAD AIR FORCE DIS NOT CONE UNTIL 1947

[@Rodin99]

I with Kitty am amazed that someone who was covering Algeria can't name the mountain range...because she's not good with geography.

[@John-ih2bx]

Kitty continues with her complaints of not getting "correct" answers, either assuming that the contestant knows everything that Kitty happens to know, or the contestant is wrong. Her socialite aura does make her very intelligent in some areas, but terribly ignorant in basic logic. Not in this episode, she proudly states that she is a feminist, but chooses a female contestant based on their looks, "Oh, you are too pretty to be [whatever] ". Terribly illogical.

[@brucemarsico6]

It's always Jan....

[@geraldkatz7986]

I just had a weird Mandela effect. I remember this episode watching it on Game Show Network. I remember it because of the three different versions of the contestant's name in Game 2 and in Game 3 the woman who was in Algeria but didn't know the name of the mountains and Kitty objecting to that. The Mandela affect comes in because I thought it was during the color 1970s syndication version with Gary Moore as host with the panel on the left side of the studio and contestants on the right. With Game 2 I just thought it coincidence that it happened here and later with Gary Moore, but with the Atlas Mountains fiasco it's the same episode. I always thought it was in color with Gary Moore. Weird.

[@nelsonricardo3729]

Very "Asia Shmasia" attitude from the panel.
