After He Said, She Said bit the dust, Mark Goodson & Bill Todman dusted off the concept in 1974, this time for CBS, and under a new title, Tattletales.
As before there would be three celebrity couples, but this time, each had a section of the studio audience that would have a "money stake" on the outcome of the day's game. Actor Bert Convy served as host for both incarnations of the series (it was brought back in 1982 for a brief run). Personally, the best part of the show was the jazzy theme song.
Anyway, let's scope out a sample episode, as Convy welcomes Allen Ludden (Password) & Betty White (The Mary Tyler Moore Show), Bill & Anne Cullen, and Chuck Woolery (a year away from Wheel of Fortune) and Jo Ann Pflug (ex-Fantastic Four).
Oh, this was so much fun to watch during summer break from school, let me tell you.
Rating: A.
