In the hosts (and shows) defense, Buster used to throw a lot of pies early on, but stopped when he started making films since "pieeing" was going out of style when they started and they couldn't bring any of the impossible gags over into film, since the audience needed to believe everything. Saw in an interview too (from before this aired), that he still takes pride in the fact that he can throw a pie from 27feet and still score a hit. So there must be something to it? Either that, or it was just his "new" routine since I've seen him doing the pie thing on a few different shows...
This was a summer game show Goodson-Todman produced for The Borden Company (before the start of Jackie Cooper's "THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE" that fall) on NBC's Thursday night schedule [8:30-9pm(et)]. Keaton appeared quite often on TV at the time...
You know, Buster wasn't all about pies, like this clip may suggest. It was only later in his career that he used them the most. (Not to say there wasn't a pie or two in his oldies but goodies!)

Buster was sooooooooo adorable!
Buster shows great timing. Hilarious!
Betty White and Buster Keaton together!
. . .and Gene Rayburn hosting his first (?) game show - way before "Match Game"?
Yeah in all of his shorts and features in the 1920s, I've never seen him once throw a pie, but this is so damn funny!
During the part where Buster was stalking around, looking as if he were about to pie someone, I was thinking "Pie the camera!"
Harry had worked with Buster in the silent film comedy:"The Cameraman"..Harry was a cop and Buster played the title role.
Betty is BEAUTIFUL!

Buster king of comedies monsieur keaton eternel
It's stranger seeing a young Gene Rayburn!
That was cute...but Keaton was never a "pie-throwing clown". >:(

Henry Gribbon.. I just became familiar with his comedies .
10:32 Thats a helluva magic trick!!
It's a lie. Buster didn't throw pies until Hollywood Cavalcade (1939).
Out of all those people, I've only heard of Betty White, lol.

Sneaky Buster, he almost pied the host.
This show seems to be a knockoff of the more famous "I've Got a Secret."
