To Tell the Truth: Season Two Ratings

Last summer, ABC revived To Tell the Truth and other classic game shows. They did well enough in the ratings to be renewed. This time around, the network is airing To Tell the Truth during the regular television season, when there’s a lot more competition. How will the game show perform this time around? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a third season on ABC? Stay tuned.

Hosted by Anthony Anderson, this version of To Tell the Truth features a panel of four celebrities who are presented with three people who all claim to be the same person with the same incredible talent, job, or achievement. One is sworn to tell the truth while the others are not. Panelists this season include Jalen Rose, Ashley Graham, Angela Kinsey, Donald Faison, Lara Spencer, David Arquette, Tom Bergeron, Sherri Shepherd, Kal Penn, Justin Long, Nikki Glaser, Adam Rodriguez, Ross Mathews, Iliza Shlesinger, Cedric the Entertainer, Martha Plimpton, and Jamie Chung. Anderson’s mother, Doris, returns to add her own commentary.
