Arlene continues to be smart. In this version, she is better than the others. I miss Dorothy Kilgallen and Bennett Cerf. But I plan to watch every episode they have screened, one a night for as long as I can.
I can't do it. I tried 2 episodes and it's just not right for me at all. I MISS JOHN DALY. (and Dorothy, of course). Why didn't John come back, does anyone know?
@@broughtbackinAccording to Wikipedia, he resigned over a quarrel with the management of ABC and turned to head Voice of America. Too bad for those of us watching today.
I would have loved to have been a challenger on this program. From 1990 until 2005 I operated a caterpillar farm, specializing in giant Saturniid moths.
@@samcorcione9111I believe “To Tell the Truth” ended its original run in the spring of 1968, and did not return until the fall of 1969, with Garry Moore as host. It was “I’ve Got a Secret” which Allen hosted later.
TV shows in 1968 had fewer commercial breaks, and less total commercial time compared to today. BUZZR apparently cannot make enough money from the original allotted commercial time, so they try to edit the original program to add even more commercial time for themselves.
This host totally gave away what the first woman did for a living by emphasizing “the body” tipping off it wasn’t for humans. Rookie mistake. John Daly was infinitely better.
@@brookehanley3659 daly was very professional, but i like wally better. i dont like soupy sales for this show. but then i seldom liked any of the comedians. for me, they just force interject themselves into the show, taking away from the show
I think you're trying to be a PICK MEEEEEEEEEEE John Charles Daly could NEVER be replaced on this show. It's awful without him. I'm out after barely 2 episodes of this "new" and definitely shoddy remake. Blech
Imagine going to a tv game show where the grand prize if you stomp the panel would be 100 dollars. With adjusted inflation ut would equate to aprox 750.0 in 2023. It hardly seems worth it to go through all the trouble. Unless you just wanted to appear on national tv.
A very American view. In much of the world, and notably in the UK $750 would be on the high side for some of our shows even today! Big prizes are used when the show has nothing else. These old GT productions were in a different league.
@@jasejj well, that's what I am, an American 😀 I don't know how those prize winning shows are taxed in the UK. Here the tax is high. A good 30 percent I would guess. An actor friend gets his pay taxed at 70 per cent. So, it does seem outlandish to receive multimillion salaries for a role in a movie if you are an A lister. Taxation is theft without representation. I know it's a cliche, but 🤷🏻♂️ Cheers, my fellow human Brit!
@@jorgevillavicencio427 Pretty sure winnings on UK TV are completely untaxed. It's not as if we don't have large prizes (they used to be rubbish, maxing out at a few thousand in the 1980s but now even the daytime shows give away tens, if not hundreds of thousands) but it's not always the sole motivator is what I was trying to get at. And I guess that explains why shows like WML remained popular in the UK for decades after they died off stateside - the panel game in one form or another is still very much a staple of TV here, albeit not with many members of the public anymore - it's just played for laughs like the mystery guest section.

Love Joan Rivers!🧡🧡
No hiding Joan’s raspy voice. Only Fran Drescher would be easier to spot.
Love Joanie so much!!❤

They should have brought back Steve Allen. He was hilarious!!
I think he had To Tell The Truth atathat time
Steve Allen had his own TV show in syndication at this time.

Steve Allen hosted I've Got a Secret, Bud Collyer did TTTT until 1968
"What's My Line?" doesn't feel right in colour.
There is one thing in common between both incarnations of the show: Gil Fates was the producer.
Doesn't feel right, the Original cast was so Elegant
@@ParanormalKs For sure.
or without john carson daly n sadly Dorothy Kilgallen
@@ajplays7241 John Charles Daly
17:41 That baby of hers she's making reference to is probably Melissa.
Of course!
Joan had only ONE offspring, so it MUST be Melissa.
4:38 seconds in, the parroting nature of the host leads me to want to give him a punch. We miss you John.
Why did they remove the panelist intros? I could see GSN doing this but BUZZR?

@@LaptopLarry330In this case, appearance would seem to be equal to reality. Thanks for the comment!
They cut the celebrity introduction on BUZZR
They did it to get more commercial time than what the original program had available in 1968.
WTF does Wally Bruner keep answering the questions along with the guest
06:30 First iteration of the quick change artist.....
This host totally gave away what the first woman did for a living by emphasizing “the body” tipping off it wasn’t for humans. Rookie mistake. John Daly was infinitely better.
This host doesn’t know how to keep a secret.
Unfair to the contestant
I think Joan was relieved and happy they guessed her.
Daly was born to moderate this show
I see the dog people were completely insane in the 60's too.
That lady is very strange .
paper dresses. 🤣
i think i like bruner better than daly
I disagree with you. He seemed to repeat the answer of the second contestant. John never did that.
Wally was very pleasant but Daly had a certain something
@@michaelmosier5627Daly however did at times I think say too much in elaboration when answering questions.

Do you know what you call a ‘lady umpire’?
An umpire.

I think they're doing it for being on TV and I think they get a hotel, dinner and ride to the studio.
@@WonderWhatHappened well, that's usually the standard for any game show. Yes, I think it was about appearing on national television.
