Answered by wiki @


Truth or Consequences was the first game show to air on broadcast television, airing as a one-time experiment on July 1, 1941. However, the series did not appear on TV again until 1950, when the medium had caught on commercially. The program originated as a prime time series, airing on CBS on September 7, 1950 hosted by Ralph Edwards. In 1956, NBC launched a new daytime version of the show, with radio personality Bob Barker at the helm. This run not only marked the start of a hugely successful TV career for Barker, but it also became the longest-running incarnation of the popular show.
