Alec Baldwin returns as host, presiding over a panel including Caroline Rhea, Tituss Burgess, Jane Krakowski, Jason Alexander, Wayne Brady, Cheryl Hines, and many more. Each episode sees contestants try to match the celebrity panel on funny, outrageous, and irreverent fill-in-the-blank questions. The game’s winner plays the Super Match to win up to $25,000.

To Tell The Truth debuts its second season on Sunday, January 1st, at 9:00PM ET. Anthony Anderson is back as host, in addition to his mother, Doris. Each episode sees a celebrity panel guess which person of a three-person lineup is being truthful about their incredible talent, job, or achievement.
