"He Said, She Said" was an American game show hosted by Joe Garagiola. The show, which asked couples questions about their personal lives, aired in syndication during the 1969-1970 season.

The show was produced by Goodson-Todman Productions for sponsor Holiday Inn. Bill Wendell announced.

The show had two formats during its run; one in which four celebrities couples (one or both of the members being a celebrity) competed, and one in which a single celebrity couple and three non-celebrity couples. The game was a predecessor to the later game show, "Tattletales".

Gameplay

Each team was given 100 points to begin the game (later they began with nothing). One member of each team – the men for the first half of the show, the women during the second half – were asked the questions, while the other member was taken to an off-stage room. Each could be seen and heard via a monitor that sat before each player; Garagiola communicated with them via an on-stage speaker phone.

Garagiola read a statement (e.g., "How he shows affection"), and each contestant would have to raise his hand. The first three to raise their hands would say a one- or two-word answer, which Garagiola would ask them to explain. The answers would then be read one at a time over the phone, and the off-stage partner would have to ring in if she thought her partner had said it. If the first person to ring in was correct, the couple won 25 points. If she was wrong, the couple lost 10 points, as did the team which originally gave the answer. Each of the three answers would be read in random order. During the all-celebrity format, the off-stage partner would have to not only ring in for the correct answer, but also relate the same explanation or story about the answer as the on-stage partner to get the points; otherwise they lost 10 points.

The men and women switched positions after two questions. After four questions were played, a final question was asked for which only two people were allowed to raise their hands would get to answer.

At the end of the game, the team(s) with the most points won $250 and a full week's stay at any Holiday Inn. The remaining couples would each win a $100 gift certificate redeemable at any Holiday Inn. The celebrity couple played for a designated couple in the audience which was revealed at the end of the show. In the all-celebrity format, each celebrity couple played for a different couple in the audience.

Pilot

The show's pilot, titled "It Had to Be You", was originally produced for NBC in 1965 with Ed McMahon as host and featured all-civilian couples.

On the collectors/traders circuit, is the pilot for the 1969 series. The format features only one celebrity couple (Gene Rayburn and his wife, Helen; and three civilian couples), and is in black-and-white, meaning it was recorded as a kinescope, since all television production in the U.S. had fully converted to color by that time.

Revival

"He Said, She Said" lasted one season in weekday syndication. The format was modified and brought back on CBS in 1974, under the name "Tattletales", with Bert Convy as host.

Episode Status

All episodes are believed to exist. Reruns have aired on GSN. Although the series was videotaped in color, one episode was aired in black-and-white on GSN in 1996, 2001, 2006, and 2007 (2001 as part of the network's "Sunday Night in Black and White").
