I want to know how tall the card expert was, cuz my husband was 6' 7", and my son is 6'8". My husband would say he was 4 feet, 43 inches! He got some incredulous looks!
Anyone else find it amusing that the game about a "bad luck" steeplejack involved a guest panelist by the name of Jinx?! Ha ha!
First thing I thought just from reading the heading to the episode.
lol, I thought of that too
Thanks. I really appreciate your spelling the names of both panel and contestants (I like to google them).
Strange to see Carson as part of show when he is not the emcee, I,e Bud Collyer or Garry Moore. Miss Jinx was certainly an eyeful !
Jinx was perhaps the first Super model and was very active making films at Columbia pictures from 1939 to 1947, when she married her lifelong husband
"Lifelong husband"? That not only makes no sense, but she was separated from her "lifelong husband" for the last 23 years of their marriage. However, they did die less than a month apart.
Her son Kevin was featured on the TV show "Hoarders", living in squalor in a New York city apartment full of junk.
Falkenburg obviously hired with the look of the wonderful Polly in mind!
Jinx was big on church activities as was Bud, she also lived near New York City.

jinx natural beauty.
And so on this panel the one who probably ended up being the most well known is Johnny Carson. And probably the richest.
Best moment at 17:00
Could Johnny Carson have ever been so young? He looks like a teenager.
Carson was youthful looking until about age 45. i like his vest . I dont recall him wearing a vest on the Tonight show
For the record, this is when Carson was hosting "Who Do You Trust?" on ABC five afternoons a week. Don Fedderson produced "Trust," while Mark Goodson and Bill Todman produced "TTTT," but apparently there was no problem with Johnny appearing on shows produced by two different people. Even Alex Trebek hosted "TTTT" while hosting "Jeopardy!" for Merv Griffin.
Hardly.
Johnny was born in 1925, so he would have been 36 on this show which was in 1961. And the other post from JJJBrice is pretty accurate. Johnny started aging quite a bit in his mid 40’s. Might be from the pressure to perform, or his divorces, or his cigarette smoking, or his drinking. He and Ed McMahon partied hard in their younger days. To their credit, both cut back on the drinking a few years later, but Johnny could never quit smoking, although he tried often. All that said, I loved watching Johnny Carson and still do!
It is a VERY, VERY good thing that no one knew the origin of the steeple. If they did explain it they would have the network down
Oh , really !!!!
Jinx Falkenburg...what a great sixties name. I had to Google her because I've heard the name but didn't really know what she was famous for. They smoke on variety shows while singing, on talk shows...but not the game shows though this is often sponsored by Camel.
Early sixties life.
She was the first Miss Rheingold...
@@tomservo56954: interesting ; what exactly is Rheingold !!!!?????
It might be a beer !!!!
Kitty has some flips in her hair on this show !!!!
@kenbrown438 A beer sold in the New York area...for a quarter century the company had a new Miss Rheingold every year, voted on by consumers (and called "America's Second Biggest Election")
Kitty has some flips in her hair on this show !!!!
Just what that Navy captain and deep sea diver needed - Easy-on spray starch. 🙄 I guess it was better than a carton of Winston’s. 😵💫
Bud Collier used to often say “extraordinary” when he meant “extraordinaire.”
Extraordinary comment.
Very interesting !!!!
Kitty seams to have a little 🐸 in her throat on this show !!!!
What I have been wondering for quite a while is to what extent the imposters were "tutored" in how to answer questions so that it would seem that they were, indeed, the person they were pretending to be. *Any information on this point would be greatly appreciated.*
I'd like to know more about this myself. I was hoping to learn more about it when I started the channel, and especially the Facebook group, because I'm always scouring the internet for articles to post in the groups I run. But I've found it very difficult finding information about this series compared to WML, even though they were comparable in popularity over the years. Part of the problem is that the phrase "To Tell the Truth" is very common, so the search results are generally totally irrelevant.
So far I haven't learned really anything about how the briefings went. But it's probably the biggest question I have about this series!
The panel is often commenting on who coaches the contestants and how thoroughly he does so. They've mentioned a name which I don't recall.
That’d be Willie Stein.
This is wild, today I've heard the name Jinx twice for two different women. One on TTTT and the other on my local news here in Albany NY. The second Jinx was on the news because her husband is on trail for killing a young woman who accidentally went down the wrong driveway. He gave no warning before he started to shot. 😢 very sad story.
The steeplejack was followed by a steeplechaser.
I believe #2's name is Kathy KUSNER and she was one of the first female jockeys
Man #3 in Game #1
Lady #3 in Game #2
Man #2 in Game #3
the bill root group did poorly lol
My first question would've been, "Are you a Christian?" (cause it's pretty obvious God's had His hand on Him)
And my second question would've been "Why do you keep doing this?"
I'm sure plenty of Christians died at the World Trade Center. Where the hell was God on that day?
I would have asked what injuries he has sustained.
