September 30th, 1957-December 27th, 1963 (ABC)

A popular game show that began in prime time on CBS in 1956 under the title Do You Trust Your Wife? and was hosted by Edgar Bergan. Two husband and wife contestants were asked questions and the husbands had the choice of answering the questions themselves or trusting their wives to answer them correctly.

In the fall of 1957, the show moved to ABC where it became a daytime show hosted by Johnny Carson. In July of 1958, the show's title was changed to "Who Do You Trust? In the fall of 1958, a new announcer Ed McMahon joined the show and teamed with Carson for the first time. McMahon replaced Bill Nimmo who would return September 10, 1962, to again become the announcer of the show for Woody Woodbury after Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon left the series in September 1962.

This was the start of a long association between Carson and McMahon as the two teamed up again when Carson became the new host of the Tonight Show on October 1st, 1962, with McMahon as Carson's announcer and sidekick for Carson's 30-year reign as host of the show.

NOTE: Woody Woodbury would succeed Johnny Carson as host of Who Do You Trust? beginning September 10, 1962, for the duration of the series, fifteen additional months, until its final episode aired on December 27, 1963. 

This was the final show of the series.

Nostradamus, who states that everything in life has occurred many times...over and over and makes predictions that our next president of the United States in 1964 will be Henry Cabot Lodge, and the next major war for the US will be in 1999. He also predicts that "Who Do You Trust" will be back on television by popular demand. 

Woody Woodbury signs off the air for the last time referring to the six and half candles on a cake marking the time the show has been on the air. He mentions that all in the studio and crew will be having a big party following this taping and recommends all viewers to enjoy all of the new ABC TV programs in production.
