The old show TattleTales

Are you telling me that Charles Nelson Reilly and Elizabeth Allen didn't make it?

You're not, OP. But then I routinely even google contestants on WML, TTTT & IGaS.

I kept rooting for Fannie Flagg and Dick York to make it!

Wrong Darren, R3. Fannie & Dick SARGENT only had eyes for each other.

Didn't like it then, don't like it now.

The Banana Section...

I watch this a few times on like RFD in my Dad's apartment after his wife had died. There was one couple who seemed absolutely adorable and I feel like they may have been on multiple episodes but I can't remember their names at all and I feel like their marriage had a tragic end due to her dying of the brain aneurysm but I'm not sure if that actually is true. I don't really get on that much in fact I can't feel what I did with my fire TV but one of the digital over the air channels shows old game shows and I keep needing to try to catch tattletales.

I just did a little digging and I think it was Meredith McRae who ended up passing from brain cancer at 56 years old which kind of tracks with what I thought had happened.

Meredith McRae, from Petticoat Junction (& married to Petticoat co-star, Greg Mullavey) & the daughter of Gordon & Sheila, was, in 1968, also on the panel of the first week of the syndicated WML.

They seem like an absolutely adorable couple and she was I thought absolutely beautiful. In a very natural way to remind me of how my mom looked when she was younger.

I will never forgive TattleTales for taking the place of The Secret Storm.

Dick Gautier divorced Barbara Stuart (who was his second wife) in 1979.

[quote]His son (from his first marriage) Randy, nicknamed Rand, had both a brief stint in pornography under the name Austin Moore, and would in 1995 steal a videotape from the home of Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson, containing footage they had filmed of themselves having sex while on vacation. Rand, along with a distributor, released it on the Internet, and it became one of the first widespread celebrity sex tapes.

My goodness, Rand Gauthier/Austin Moore...

I was prepared for the divorces, but the murders and suicides added a lurid tinge beyond the pale.

I remember the show with William Shatner and his second wife, Marcy something,

As far as I know it was the first time he talked about his almost disabling tinnitus. He's a spokesman and activist for the disorder now. He has a recent post on X about the need for research. At the time I was just a teen but when he described it I thought 'I am going to get that'. It was so weird.

Forty years later I did. At least I know it might drive me crazy but it won't kill me.

Don't forget DL legend MARY WICKES and her gentleman friend Elliott Reid.

Surprisingly, like ole Mare, Elliott never married — but I'm sure he tore up her puss something fierce after the show. Hubba hubba!

R16 They were on the show together? I would kill to see that episode.

R14, I was watching a bit of an episode with Barbara McNair and her husband. Went to look them up to see if they lasted and come to find out he was murdered a few years after the show aired. I believe it was mob related.

Speaking of the 70s, I saw an article on Jo Ann Worley earlier today. 88 and still going strong. Didn't DL fave hussy Joyce Bulifant steal her husband, Roger Perry, or were they already divorced before he took up with blondie?

Joyce Bulifant marriages:

James MacArthur (Hawaii 5-0) ​(m. 1958; div. 1968) ​ Edward Mallory (Days of Our Lives) ​(m. 1969; div. 1974) ​ William Asher (Bewitched) ​(m. 1976; div. 1993) ​ Glade Bruce Hansen ​(m. 2000; div. 2001) ​ Roger Perry ​(m. 2002; died 2018)

Wow, that formatting didn't. Let me try this again.

Initials, r2? Really? You think we can read minds? Quit typing fat and lazy.

TTTT?

[quote] TTTT?

Really?! I wouldn't think a DLer would have to ask. One on a thread about a 50-year old game show. One even produced by Goodson-Todman.

WML = What's My Line

TTTT = To Tell the Truth

IGaS= I've Got a Secret

Leslie Nielsen was on with a girlfriend. Candy Rhodes.

TT is the only game show I can stand.

This is a no-abbreviation thread, R24!

My era but never once watched it. Wasn’t it a Bert Convey hosted program?

Yes. Bert Convy.
