Classic "Truth or Consequences" Starring Bob Barker 

Bob Barker was & is always remembered for Truth or Consequences as well as The Price Is Right.

Bob Barker RIP. You will always be the host of Truth or Consequences in our eyes and hearts.

I still remember how much my mother laughed watching this show.

They need to release these on DVD along with all of the other classic game shows

This was actually funny. I wish this show could work again!

My Stomach Hurts these Shows are So Funny 😂 Bob Barker is a Genius 🏆💖

I’ve heard about this show but never saw it until today Sep 4 2021. Bob Barker was one of the best game show hosts.

How funny. Those babies were born about the same time I was. In fact, the lazy one looks like me.

The funniest episode was in the latter years of the show and I wish I could remember when. It was an Alibaba scene with a magic carpet on a raised bench with a satin pillow to sit on. The the three men contestants didn't know, there was an electric prod inside the pillow that obviously put out a powerful shock when switched on. One by one Bob would have each man come out dressed to look like Alibaba. Their pants were also satin and very thin. Bob's beautiful assistant would sit next to each on a safe pillow. They would read a love line that said, "....come with me and we will fly this magic carpet up, up, and away! At that point someone would switch on the pillow and up the contestant would come, yelling as loud as he could, I wish someone could find that and post it on RU-vid. It is priceless! I still can't stop laughing just thinking about it.

I always wanted to be on Truth or Consequences and get a pie in the face!

I appeared on this show in 1972 as a crawling baby. I contacted the company that owns the show years ago and they confirmed what episode I was in, but said it was on 2" video tape stored in an unindexed box somewhere and would take an inordinate amount of time to find it and it would possibly be too degraded to transfer to other media anyway. So I'm curious... where did you get these clips?

First time I saw it had to be 1969. I recall it was on early in the evening maybe 7pm. Very popular in those days.

First game show I watched as a child. Loved it and was hooked! ❤️

loved this show as a kid fav epoisod was when they put a guy in aduince in drag and wife had to find him he was stuck there for whole show

I was born in 89' - Sep... Of course, this show with the host Bob Barker is way beyond my time, but stuff like this really interests me just by how the time was back then, the people both men, & woman, on how they dressed, talked & the humor that came along with the show/ past time...

The driver on the far right made many mistakes, but Bob kept missing them.

Let’s keep in mind that Price is Right also aired on NBC at that time.

Would love to see the one that my husband was on when he was in the Navy. About 1968-1969 time frame

And this why Bob Barker is THE best game show host, EVER!

Oh my gosh. Iloved this show. I was 9 at the time.

Those little babies at the beginning are in their sixties now !

RIP my friend Bob Baker.

Nothing beat staying home from school on a sick or snow day eating chicken soup and watching these daytime shows.

Gosh it was a cute show. I was on it with my mom back around 1964. Bob's guys had chosen 3 children from the audience-with their moms-and brought them to the stage. The children were taken backstage and each mom was asked: will your child talk or not talk when they brought in the Winchell Mahoney doll and set it on the couch and left it alone with each child. I would later hear that the audience went nuts as my poor mom (knowing her child as good as any could) told him I would cry/ball my eyes out. The audience was in hysterics as he explained their were only two choices? But she insisted? He wouldn't yield. So I am set down on that couch, the doll is brought in and set down and the fellow leaves the room. Within 10 seconds, I was terrified and screaming my heart out. The audience laughed through the whole adventure. As we drove home-up Franklin to the 101 freeway on ramp, I remember her grumbling how I had cost her $50 bucks and a trip to Mammoth (she was a ski-nut back then). Ironically, the vacuum cleaner that was her consolation prize actually turned out to be worth more 10 years later!

I used to watch this show as a very little boy in the late 1960’s. My parents loved this show. Bob Barker is still with us at age 99.

A 1974 episode involved 4 contestants bringing in people with odd names, culled from the phone book. Some of the names were: Rusty Pipes, Safety First, Rose Hose and Mary Christmas. If you have that episode please post it!

God says: "Bob Barker come on up!" RIP

I was on this show playing Barkers Box in Summer of 1966( sometime July- Sept) . Any idea how I could find it? I was 19yrs old. 😬

The consequence at the 11:30 mark featuring Jim Ryun sort of recycled one from the short-lived mid-1950's NBC primetime version with Jack Bailey, which involved Olympic decathlete Bob Mathias.

R.I.P. Bob Barker.

Priceless blast from the past! Anyone else notice how much baby #3 resembles like Bert Lahr? (Lahr play the Cowardly Lion in the old Wizard of Oz movie with Judy Garland.) Bob Barker was the best host ever. R.I.P., Bob.

It used to air at 7:00pm after Walter Cronkite - if I'm not mistaken. I was 6 or 7 and still remember it well. Loved Barker s Box... I'll never forget 2 guys who were racing to a location somewhere by water. The first one there got a major prize. One way to get there was by a cruise ship and the other by a tiny row boat. They cruise ship would travel a much greater distance, while the small boat had a much shorter distance. They had to play a game or something to determine who got to choose their vessel. The guy who won the choice inexplicably took the small craft instead of a free cruise. He thought he could beat the ship. I don't think he did.

Stu reported on his show that Gary Edwards(Ralph's son) was at one point close to striking a deal with GSN to air a package of the Barker syndicated TofC, but it was said that someone bowed out. Does Barker not want this aired too? My guess this is around the time GSN picked up the syndicated/NBC primetime Marshall Squares package.

I remember an episode from the fall of 1958. A woman appeared who was reunited with her father. They had not seen each other in decades. How can I find that episode.

Lots of views coming ... and wow $100 = that's equal to like 1 week salary as the average household income back then was about $5,000+ a year.

Somebody please bring this game show back on TV!

Bob Barker missed the first woman who made 2 mistakes during the "driving a car" segment.

Rest in peace to a game show legend

RIP 99 lets go

That last one, I think you cut off too soon. I think something very funny might have happened after the point of cutoff.

Need to bring this game show back

RIP Bob. The best there ever was, the best there ever will be

Love the black & white clip ( from an NBC daytime show ); too bad the audio wasn't good at the beginning. Don Isham's music under Charlie Lyon's announcing was catchy! Maybe Ralph Edwards Productions can strike a deal with Buzzr TV over a "Truth or Consequences" rerun package. It would be great to see the young Bob Barker in action!

My favorite show as a kid in the 70s

Mister Barker showed why zero is a forever funny number! That would be L0L!

oh that poor baby boy, I hope this parents didn't blame him for his whole life !

Women back then were empowered in natural weight loss

Oh wow! I was a little kid when saw Bob Barker hosting TorC, my parents loved this show, I recognized the building where the ladies were running around, the CBS studios where the Price is Right is shown, it's next to the L.A. Farmer's Market. I don't remember all of this show but there were parts I would sit with my family (when everyone had just one t.v.), and laughing at the funny things the contestants had to do. Years later, I was happy to see Bob Barker on TPIR! (My sister in law was a contestant on that shown, she won a vacuum cleaner!lol)..This video cracked me up, too funny! No one like Bob Barker. 😊💖

looking for a truth or consequences show that had my uncle standing on the street corner with a megaphone

We went from this to youtube prank videos.

World-class miler Jim Ryun!

*The southern Belle race made me guffaw i do declare*

the woman driver bit is so objectifyingly hilarious

Interesting, this video started black and white before switching to color

Thank you for uploading this! Great ToC clips!

Who knew Jim Ryan once dressed in Southern belle drag? So funny.

This wasn't really a "game show". I was an "audience participation" show.

When women dressed the part

The women to the right on the driving test could be Peggy from Mad Men.

One thing that strikes me about TV Prank shows like T-O-C is how they tended to repeat gags that they did some weeks or years earlier for example The gag with JIM RYAN ED BALEY DID AN ALMOST IDETICAL GAG WITH BOB METHYOUS SOME YEARS ERLIER

Hard to watch..

I suppose that the beginning is the only surviving video from the 1956-61 NBC run? Sad if true.

RIP Bob Barker

My grandma was on this show somewhere between 1966 and 1972 or something like that. There was a band on the episode called Fear and she was up in a “birdcage”. Does anyone know how to find this so I can watch her?

My cohorts

This show was so fricking awesome

Someone has to ask the question -- *WHAT WAS UP WITH ALL THOSE CUT-OFFS AND HORRIBLE EDITS?*

Bob barker is the daddy of all those kids

Now this is a game that I can seriously get into ! MORE PLEASE !

Bob Barker needs to sell his fucking Chevy!

Great show. Wonderful days before the perpetually offended grievance bunch ruined fun and comedy for everyone!

I watched this as a child. God, I remember this segment. It was on TV M-F, at 6:30 pm, central time. Those babies would be close to 50, if not that. I'm close to 60. I loved that show. It seems funny now but I recall people on the show hollering and hooting if they won a Brother typewriter. Singer sewing machines were also popular prizes.Alot of the prizes came from Spiegel catalog.I also used to watch Candid Camera hosted by Alan Funt, in the 1960's.

Bob turned 99 yesterday Dec 12, 2022

Geez, that plastic looking hair though!

On the last clip they did a Candid Camera on the three ladies, haha.

T or C needs a good revival with a funny host

Sadly this show wouldn't work today as a series. The 80s reboot attempt quickly flopped. However, I could see an occasional prime time special blending elements from Price is Right and Let's Make a Deal hosted by Drew or Wayne (if you don't know the price, you have to pay the consequences).

i wished they would brng this show back

I saw a live taping of this as a kid in the 70s

The segment where the ladies raced against a man in drag, who unfairly won? Well, that isn't a joke anymore! Today, we are expected to accept this as normal in women's sports.

wish they would revive this show would love to be contestint with lady friend of mine either pie in face or have me in audince in drag and have her try to find me 2 fav conesqences from when a kid ps network from canada please would be good time filler and cheap to proudce

@13:41, you can see that this was taped at Metromedia Studios (KTTV 11).

I'm still laughing.

RIP Mr. Barker...😢

Come on Down

Bob Barker will be 100 years old

this is a very silly show

1:47 0:05

Who is the announcer

There's a new game show for dentists. It's called Tooth or Consequences.

Jim Ryun in drag 15:30 He and the show would be cancelled now for being too woke.

This is how I first saw Bob Barker on TV. The Price is Right is a relatively new game show
