Here is episode 1, week 6, season 3 of To Tell the Truth 1971. Garry Moore is the host. Panel is Rayburn-Cass-Cullen-Carlisle. Ahem. "Questionable" opening. Minor video and audio issues on this one.
JOHNNY OLSON'S VOICE IS SO RECOGNIZABLE. I CAN STILL HERE HIM SAYING "FROM THE SUNSHINE CAPITAL OF THE WORLD MIAMI BEACH" FOR THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW. JOHNNY OLSON IS A LEGEND.
This show was taped at NBC's Studio 6A at Rockefeller Center, the same studio where they did Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show". The first three years of the series was at CBS' Studio 50 before they moved where this show was taped.
In 1971, I guess only men drove on highways and only women shopped in supermarkets. It's really hard not to feel that the opening skit and first round are just one big prank on the audience.
What I hate about these later episodes, is how the producers tried to "freshen" up the show. It got canceled anyway. Seems to me that when you have a formula that works, stick with it to the end!
"William lawrence francis cullen the first host of the price is right the legendary game-show-host & panelist professor yes n no himself bill-cullen"🇮🇪🇺🇸.
Very awkward questioning by Peggy Cass of the airline stewardess Asking if young men would get disappointed that the airline stewardess was 65 years old!Shame on you Peggy!
Everyone connected with this program would have been fired... and possibly jailed... if this bizarre opening was produced today. I'm no defender of over-the-top political correctness, but this attempt at humor went WAY too far.
I can’t help but be amazed at what was allowed to hit the air when I was a kid.
And what was the norm back then, too!

I always loved Kitty Carlisle. She seemed so excentric and highly intelligent.
She was a great woman and devoted twenty years of her life as a volunteer to the Arts Council Of New York!
I think she loved the kisses from Garry there.

I agree with Kitty. This idea of the first contestant was a total disgrace!
Kitty shrank to about 5 feet tall towards the end of her long, illustrious life. Before that she was a statuesque 5 feet 6 inches tall.
That opening bit had me wondering if the first guest was an expert on sexual harassment.
Or as a womanizer
Sadly, this wasn't considered harassment back then.
I agree with Peggy too!
thanks for posting

Lichtenstein got this not-so-original idea from a 1959 issue of Mad Magazine.
Actually The Owl and the Pussycat.
He stole this from Mad???
That was beautiful picture of #2 the airline stewed.
Love Garry!!!! You ain’t Jon Hamm but damn that skit was funny.
Gene Rayburn wearing glasses. Yeah!!!
wowza!! it's hard to believe that would be so blatant about wanted to deceive not your SPOUSE but your WIFE!!!!!!
Alibi tapes- soooo high tech- for 1971!
Wonder if Goodson-Todman got a few letters over this.
Aw, like women don't cheat.
Panel:
Gene Rayburn, Peggy Cass, Bill Cullen & Kitty Carlisle.
2:40 Our Inventive Panel here on To Tell The Truth
I'm ROFL at Peggy's questions about the alibi tape.
Me too!! I think the judge buzzed Peggy on purpose!!
good for Peggy....the tapes are despicable.
That intro sketch was awkward as hell.
George Alexander Damn funny though. Great invention!!! But could you get away with this now???
Those hot pants though
You Can Only See That on TO TELL THE TRUTH
I guess Ashley Madison Company wasn't first with this idea
Tapes.. didn't that get the president in trouble a short time later ?
joebradio As well with Nixon's paranoia.
Wow this would never fly now

LOL at Gene Rayburn's entrance!
He was the master of those.
@@act4666 Absolutely he was!
Ridiculous...and sleazy! I agree with Peggy and Kitty!!!

How did she avoid the forced retirement airlines did to flight attendants when they hit 30 or so?(or got married)
OMG

Gary Moore was very short.
