I'm sure most of you remember Laugh-In and Sock it to Me.
Those are a little before my time but there is a very cool new network called BuZZr that airs nothing but old game shows, some of which I ever even heard of back then, such as TattleTales with celebrity married couples.
It's a very entertaining and nostalgic channel, if one wants to occasionally indulge in a waste of time. :-)
I actually saw one episode of TO TELL THE TRUTH with a 10 year old Dr. Henry Makow on it, from Canada. it was really something else, this guy, inventor of the scruples game and prolific writer on the jew world order, 9/11, and feminism. Actor Tom Poston was one who guessed who Makow was. I actually was able to record a bit of it.
another thing I never knew was the Richard dawson, host of family feud, later married one of the woman contestants from that show,. they had a daughter and he promised his little girl that he will no longer kiss the woman contestants, that he will only kiss his wife, her mommy. ;-)
In [Chuck]Barris's autobiography, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, he claims to have worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) as an assassin in the 1960s and the 1970s. A 2002 feature film version, directed by George Clooney and starring Sam Rockwell, depicts Barris as killing 33 people.
"The CIA denies Barris ever worked for them in any capacity" -- I'll bet they do!
"Barris published Della: A Memoir of My Daughter in 2010 about the death of his only child, who died in 1998 after a long struggle with drug addiction" -- ah, the poignant tales all these top celebs have to tell of dope-fiendery, a subject that virtually didn't exist before they became our gods.
