Tattletales

Article

Tattletales is a game show which first aired on the CBS daytime schedule on February 18, 1974. It was hosted by Bert Convy, with several announcers Jack Clark (for the first several weeks), Gene Wood (who served as main announcer, beginning in late 1974 onwards), Johnny Olson (who also served as main announcer on the 1982 version) and John Harlan providing the voiceover at various times. The show was based on a syndicated Goodson-Todman show aired during the 1969-1970 season, He Said, She Said.

The show's premise was based on questions asked about celebrity couples' personal and/or love lives.

Host

Bert Convy was awarded a Daytime Emmy for hosting the show in 1977. However, occasionally during the 1970s run, Bert Convy and his wife, Anne, would play the game. Most often they both played during weeks in which the panel was comprised entirely of other game show hosts and their spouses. Among the hosts who filled in for Convy during these episodes were Gene Rayburn, Bob Barker, Bobby Van, Jack Narz and Richard Dawson. All five hosts also participated in playing the game along with current and future hosts such as Allen Ludden, Bill Cullen, and Chuck Woolery.
