Daytime TTTT started on 6/18/62, so I assume the shows before 2/25/63 are not available.  Wonder if more guest hosts will be discovered?  Bud seemed to take a lot of time off and even the EOTVGS didn't list Mark Goodson as hosting CBS daytime TTTT.

This new show might have a chance seeing they went to all the trouble of getting Chester Morris for the premiere panel.

I take it these are going to be shows that, for the most part, we haven't seen on GSN before?  I've got someone looking for a daytime episode that's *probably* from late 1963.  Hpw likely is it that we're going to see anything approaching a regular run, or are we just expecting scattered episodes?

The Monday episode is the one that was shown during the Buddy Hackett tribute night. Then on Tuesday, a 1965 episode with Tom Poston, Peggy Cass, Orson Bean and Gretchen Wyler.

But I'm looking forward to seeing Jack Clark fill in as host. Jack was the announcer on daytime TTTT for much of its run. It was always fun to see Jack host \"Password\" for Ludden.

 And to put the epsiode in its proper historical perspective, this was months before Jack tried to singlehandedly resuscitate big money game shows with \"$100 Grand\", with its gigantic plexiglass dome monstrosities and questions written on the spot.

I'm surprised those episodes exist at all.  I thought it was discussed previously that most of the daytime run wasn't around any longer.  Strange that \"TTTT\" might still exist, but shows like daytime \"Password\" from the same era don't.

Well, apparently the first episode we're going to see is from early 1963 and the next is from 1965.  So I guess it's fair to say that there aren't all that many daytime TTTT available.

Aren't most of the surviving videotaped episodes of the original daytime TTTT in color?

If the Game Show Network had a sense of humor, they'd announce at the top of each one: \"The following program is brought to you in living color on 'Black & White Overnight.'\"

Your forgetting one thing: This is GSN and variety of programming is a deviation of their standards. But Twenty-One was a start, maybe they are heading in the right direction.

I'd like to see the TTTT '70s that they had on Breakfast w/the Stars last summer, and more of them. That clip of Gene Rayburn,KC,BC,and whoever else was on it was hilarious(OGSM3, the one with the dog food!)

It was Peggy Cass.

I need to know something about that TTTT show with Phyllis Newman on the panel ASAP:  Is this one airing early Sunday or early Monday at 4 AM?  I have a rare chance this weekend to be in an area where GSN is available on analog cable, but I can only stay one night and I don't want to pick the wrong night.  So which is it?
