1969-1977: The game goes on. Far Out!
Even though CBS had cancelled Truth in 1968, Goodson-Todman Productions knew the show could go on. After the success they found in moving What's My Line? into five-day-a-week syndication, doing the same with Truth was only natural. The show made its triumphant return in 1969, often paired with Line? to make up the classiest hour on TV. Each day, 
two stories were presented, with the team splitting $50 for each incorrect vote, or $500 for completely fooling the panel.
Garry Moore, who from 1952 until 1964 hosted Truth's other CBS cousin, I've Got a Secret, took over as host flawlessly. Besides Secret, Moore had hosted a couple of popular variety shows and was a much beloved TV figure. Plus, there were few on TV with as much experience with celebrity panel shows.
The look of the show was truly like no other to that point. The set was designed by Ted Cooper, but one could be forgiven for thinking Peter Maxx was behind it. Also contributing to the overall groovy feel of the show was the bubblegum-pop theme song, featuring lyrics! It's a lie, lie, you're telling a lie/I never know why you don't know how/to tell the truth, truth, truth, truth...
Times may change, but there's always room for Kitty Carlisle on TTTT! Along with Peggy Cass and Bill Cullen (who, as you can see here, also filled in for Garry as host from time to time), they formed one of TV's most memorable panels. Old friends, including Orson Bean and Gene Rayburn, still dropped by from time to time.
In 1971, psychedalia was on its way out, and Truth toned down the set. Then, in 1974, with a move to NBC's Studio 6A, yet another new set, incorporating the new "block letter" logo that would become the show's signature look. Thankfully, the groovy theme song stayed.
