@Hondo20132 I saw this episode on WPIX Channel 11 when it first aired. It was in color and on videotape, so it's a good bet the show was either taped over and this kinescope was taken for archive purposes. All of the episodes do survive in one form or another. Those episodes surviving on videotape most likely came from when NBC (this was taped at 30 Rock in New York) had switched over to U-Matic videocassettes.

Oh, so that's where Mark Goodson got the idea for the Tattletales from when he was around, right?

This is evidently an early ep. since it's in black and white. I have two color ep.s myself, actually.

@Hondo20132 It may be the pilot. It's obviously a black and white kinescope, as the entire series was in color. The pilot probably was too.

It's not the pilot. The pilot had Gene Rayburn and his wife playing against regular civilians.

@GSNSmashFan3 Another possibility is that they taped multiple pilots.
