Research Help

The core work of this To Tell the Truth project -- trying to reconnect those who appeared on the series with their episodes -- has never been possible without friends, acquaintances, and generally helpful souls.  It's been a group effort all along.  Luckily, there are very few shows that made it into the Game Show Network or Buzzr schedule in the last 30 years that we don't have some details about.  That said, there are several dozen shows from series two about which we're hoping to find out more.  If anyone happens to have a copy of or notes on the episodes listed below and is willing to relay some details about them (impostor names, especially), please contact us at tttt@att.net.

Please know that any information you provide could ultimately help someone searching for their segment.
