Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Unfortunately for the show, Gordon Elliott was forced to relinquish hosting duties after only eight weeks due to a dispute with another production company, with whom he'd signed an exclusive contract. Lynn Swann moved over from the panel, but viewers didn't respond. Alex Trebek was pressed into action for Truth's final three months - making Trebek the first to host three game shows simultaneously (already holding down "Jeopardy!" (1984) and "Classic Concentration" (1987)). In fact, by the time Truth ended its run on 5/31/91, even Mark Goodson himself appeared as host, filling in on two episodes when Alex's wife went into labor. more

I used to watch this show when I was a little girl. First off, I must say that it was a fun game show. Also, I haven't seen every episode. However, if you ask me, it was still a good show. I remember the theme song pretty well, too. Even so, it was fun to play along and watch. I hope some network brings it back so I can watch again. If that happens, I will be really happy. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever, even though I haven't seen every episode. Now, in conclusion, if some network ever brings it back, I hope you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.
