NOTES:

  • The Chilean version was part "To Tell the Truth" and part "What's My Line?".
  • There was also a pirated version that aired in Havanna, Cuba. According to an interview, Mark Goodson called the producer and asked him where he got the show. "We took it from a kinescope of a show like it in New York," the producer explained. "I created this show," Goodson said. "You created this show? You must be very intelligent," the producer replied.
