TattleTales featured celebrity couples telling about their lives together as well as some of their hobbies, their lifestyles, and maybe reveal some dirty little secrets. While they were doing it, they were playing for money for their respective rooting section: red, yellow (banana), and blue. This version itself is a reboot of a short-lived Goodson-Todman produced game show called He Said, She Said.

  • Game Show/Panel Game hybrid created by Mark Goodson-Bill Todman Productions, hosted by Bert Convy, in which three celebrity couples tried to match answers. Only one half of each couple played the game onstage; the other half was placed offstage with headphones. The show ran from 1974 to 1978 on CBS (with a concurrent syndicated run in the 1977-78 season) and was brought back from 1982 to 1984, again with Convy as host. This version was replaced in June 1984 with Body Language, another Mark Goodson creation and another revival (this one of 1975's Showoffs).

  • Game Show/Panel Game hybrid created by Mark Goodson-Bill Todman Productions, hosted by Bert Convy, in which three celebrity couples tried to match answers. Only one half of each couple played the game onstage; the other half was placed offstage with headphones. Originally, the show used a format wherein Convy would ask a question, and whichever spouse was onstage would ring in and relate a similar experience. (This was the basic premise of the original version, He Said She Said.) If the offstage half could match the description given a one- or two-word clue, s/he would receive a cash award. These questions alternated with "Tattletales Quickies", or multiple-choice questions involving incidents in the couples' lives. In June 1974, the format was retooled to include only the "Quickie" clues. On all versions, the game was played in four rounds -- two with the husbands onstage, and two with the wives onstage. Any money won by the celebrity couples was divided among Studio Audience members sitting in sections that corresponded to that couple — red, yellow (or "banana", as Convy called it), and blue. The show ran from 1974 to 1978 on CBS (with a concurrent syndicated run in the 1977-78 season) and was brought back from 1982 to 1984, again with Convy as host. This version was replaced in June 1984 with Body Language, another Mark Goodson creation and another revival (this one of 1975's Showoffs).
