Hollywood's Talking

It ran on CBS for three months in 1973, debuting on March 26 (alongside The $10,000 Pyramid and The Young and the Restless) and ending on June 22 to make room for a new version of Match Game.

The program aired at 3:30 p.m./2:30 Central time, opposite ABC's One Life to Live (then still a 30-minute show) and NBC's Return to Peyton Place.

A slightly different arrangement of the theme music for the show was used for a later Barry & Enright game, Hollywood Connection, which aired four years later in syndication.

The remaining sixty-one episodes are unaccounted for, and host Geoff Edwards was quoted as saying he believed they disappeared “into thin air”.

Although CBS did begin scaling back their use of wiping to save videotape beginning in 1972, some game shows that aired on the network after Hollywood’s Talking also have uncertain statuses (such as Musical Chairs, Gambit, and the daytime edition of Tic-Tac-Dough).
