Anyone remember this Saturday morning game show? Does anyone have in on tape/DVD?????

"I'm Telling" was a Saturday morning game show from the early 80s that was hosted by Laurie Faso, who starred in the 70s kids show "Marlo and the Magic Movie Machine." The announcer was Dean Goss, who would later announce a revival of "High Rollers" that was hosted by Wink Martindale.

The show looked like a ripoff of "The Newlywed Game", featuring three brother-sister teams who were asked questions about how well they knew each other. The team with the most points got to play the Pick a Prize Arcade for a variety of prizes. Even though the show lasted one season on NBC (the Minneapolis affiliate didn't carry it), "I'm Telling" was rerun on The Family Channel.

it was an awful show they should destory every tape of it that exists yuck

And Howard Stevens was the Executive Producer for DiC.

I DISAGREE!!! :mad: I thought that this was a cute game show!It was about the only time that NBC actually had a damn good Saturday morning schedule;their best ever!!!The host was perfect;the theme song just right;even the announcer(I always pay close attension to whom's announcing the shows)was perfect.Sure it was a so-called rip off of The Newlywed Game,but that should have been flattering;instead,the show got sued by none other than the usually easy going Chuck Barris(I could never figure that out!)I would love to see them re-vive this one;even if its on Nick(so that they can "screw it up").

Actually, it was a late '80s GS that DID run on NBC's Saturday Morning schedule, but it was from 1987-88. Family Channel (now known as the BORING ABC Family) used to rerun this GS in the mid '90s after reruns of Punky Brewster.

True, it was a Newlywed Game-ripoff, but I liked that great turntable set, theme music, and that bonus round, The Prize Arcade, kicked serious @$$!

The host, Laurie Faso, though looked like a total nerd.

Not a terribly bad show, though.

If only most weekend morning schedules would look like that, it would be a great place. :)

I remember this show. A Long long time ago, when ALF was still on, there was a show called "Alf Loves a Mystery" where ALF worked with kids to find clues that would introduce us to the NBC saturday morning lineup - Smurfs, Fraggle Rock, etc.

I wish they'd bring back family entertainment like this. I wish I could have done the prize arcade, that would have been fun!

What Production Company did the show Produced by?

It was produced by DiC and Saban Productions.

Ah, thank you. But was Haim Saban the Executive Producer?

It was produced by either or both Haim Saban and/or Shuki Levy. I'm not fully sure, though; but I know that Haim Saban was one of the producers of this show.

Who else is the Executive Producer?

It was around exactly the same time that he'd announce High Rollers.

And the music was composed by Level 22. Who are the Executive Producers of I'm Telling?

You mean the same team that also did the theme song to Wordplay, which also aired on NBC?

Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyep. But who were the Exceutive Producers for I'm Telling?

<SHORTENED FOR EDITING>

Besides the sets of brothers-sisters, they had...

BROTHERS DAY (2): On both episodes, two older-younger brother teams didn't squabble or complain, because they got a perfect 425 score! But failed to win all 10 prizes @ the arcade.

SISTERS DAY (2)

CELEBRITY SIBLINGS (1): Winnings were donated to charity.

In Houston, KPRC had the show @ 6:00 am! Boy did I have to wake up with the chickens to catch that show!

Were Howard Stevens and Haim Saban are Executive Producers for I'm Telling..?
