ABC Bringing 'To Tell The Truth' Back, Hosted by Anthony Anderson, Featuring Betty White and NeNe Leakes

Betty White on Match Game.
ABC is bringing back classic panel game show To Tell The Truth.

Hosted by Anthony Anderson and produced by FremantleMedia North America, To Tell The Truth is an anarchic and funny re-imagination of the beloved, game show of the same name. The all new version will take the excitement to another level featuring fun characters from pop culture over the six-episode series.

Anderson will preside over four famous faces including legend Betty White (who has appeared on previous versions of the show) and actress NeNe Leakes. In each round they will be presented with three people who all claim to be the same person with the same incredible talent, job or achievement. One is sworn to tell the truth while the others are not. The panel of celebrities will have a chance to grill each participant before taking turns deciding who they think is telling the truth.

Anderson’s brassy mother, Doris, will be the official scorekeeper and asking questions of her own, not to mention embarrassing her son every chance she gets. The celebrity panelist who performs the worst will have to tweet a lie about themselves to the world. Cheche and his Band of Liars will be the house band. Every episode will end with a show stopping stunt/performance.

The celebrity panelists set to appear in each episode include:

* Betty White – Seven-Time Emmy Award Winning TV legend, actress, author and producer, and passionate supporter of animal health and welfare. Betty is known for her iconic television roles from The Golden Girls and The Mary Tyler Moore Show. She received a Daytime Emmys Lifetime Achievement Award earlier this year, and appeared on The Bold and the Beautiful as Ann Douglas from 2006-2009.

* NeNe Leakes – Actress (Glee), TV personality (Real Housewives of Atlanta), producer, author and fashion designer most recently seen on Broadway in "Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella."

To Tell The Truth is produced by FremantleMedia North America and will be taped in front of a live audience in Los Angeles, California. Barry Poznick, Toby Gorman, Thom Beers, Jeff Gaspin, George Moll and Anthony Anderson are executive producers.

In a first for DANCING WITH THE STARS, the competition will feature a new game changing twist called “The Switch Up.” This season, America will be given the power to vote and change celebrities and professional dance pairings. This new rule will affect all couples as they will be required to switch partners at a point in the season. Never before have dance partnerships been split up during the course of competition.

As announced this morning on ABC’s GOOD MORNING AMERICA by DANCING WITH THE STARS hosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews, the 12 celebrities with their professional partners heading to the dance floor this season (in alphabetical order) are:

Mischa Says O.C. Reunion "Doesn't Feel Right"
"You know -- never say never," Barton, 27, told Us Weekly at the Cosmopolitan Summer Bash in Hollywood, Calif. on Saturday, Aug. 10. "But, I think things have to feel right and it doesn't feel right. You can't say that you feel one way or another about things, but before The O.C. I was on track to do some great films, as well, and one things happens and then I got this mega stardom all from this show. It is what it is, but I'm not looking to get sucked back into the limelight of it."

NEWS ROUNDUP: STOP SOPA; Betty White Encore; Did Rick Perry Save DALLAS?

NBC to encore the Betty White birthday special
NBC will air a repeat of the special on Saturday, Jan. 21 from 8-9:30 p.m. The debut telecast on Monday averaged a dominant 13.9 million viewers – NBC’s biggest overall audience in the 8-9:30 p.m. time period, excluding the Olympics, since Feb. 18, 2008.

Did Texas Governor Rick Perry save the new DALLAS on TNT?
Some of the credit for the show's ability to shoot in the real city of Dallas may come from Cynthia Cidre's agent, Anne Blanchard, a Dallas native, and to (wait for it) Rick Perry. When Cidre originally started writing the pilot nearly two years agoo, she said, Blanchard told her, "Honey, if they ever start talking about doing this in another state, you let me know. It has to be in Dallas."
