Tattletales!

Very sad that we lost this wonderful man so early in his life! He would have been 83 on July 23rd!

He had it all, and he seemed like such a nice, humble man. Didn't come across as being conceited at all!

Tattletales and then Super Password. I never really liked Win, Lose, Or Draw and I've never seen 3rd Degree.

Me neither! I have never seen 3rd degree! I don't even think I ever heard of it before?

I thought Mark Goodson made the right choice to hire Bert Convy to host Tattletales. He was good looking, thought on his feet very well and brought humor to the show and the others he hosted, including Super Password.

He would have been the perfect successor to Gene Rayburn on Match Game. Though he hosted the pilot, he became ill and eventually passed away from a brain tumor. If he was still alive, the show could have had a longer run despite airing at noon on the east coast where a number of affiliates ran news or syndicated programming in that time period. Ross Shafer wasn't a bad host, it was time slot ABC put it in.

Oh I've heard of 3rd Degree Bonniegirl, I've just never seen it.

Tattletales was way ahead of its time so I'll have to go with that one.

I always liked Super Password with the Magic Toaster that never seemed to work.
