<P> This edition of To Tell the Truth brought back the audience vote that the original series had last used . Their vote was revealed after the panel had cast their votes, just before O'Hurley asked for the subject to identify themself . Each incorrect vote paid $1,000, with a maximum of $5,000 available if the challengers managed to completely fool both the panel and the audience . (A tie in the audience vote or panel disqualification counted as a wrong vote, as they had in previous versions .) In the first several weeks of shows, a game that resulted in five incorrect votes was worth $10,000 for the challengers . </P> <P> According to Steve Beverly's tvgameshows.net, this edition of Truth never received a rating higher than 1.8 . It was cancelled on January 28, 2002, only 96 episodes into its second season . However, repeats continued to air through March 15, 2002 . All episodes of this series exist and have aired on GSN in reruns . </P> <P> ABC ordered six episodes of the show, hosted by Anthony Anderson, which taped in July 2015 and began airing on ABC on June 14, 2016 . Anderson is the second African - American host of the franchise; the first was Lynn Swann in the short - lived NBC daytime version from 1990 . The first season featured three regular panelists: Betty White, NeNe Leakes and Jalen Rose . White would then gain the distinction of appearing on all three broadcast network versions of the show . Guest panelists included Tracee Ellis Ross, Iliza Shlesinger, Mike Tyson, Brooks Wheelan, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Daymond John . The 2016 version also included a house band, Cheche and His Band of Liars, as well as Doris Day Bowman, Anderson's mother, as the "scorekeeper ." </P> <P> The 2016 version of the show departed from prior versions in a number of ways: Episodes lasted 60 minutes rather than 30 minutes . Contestants did not always claim to have the same name; some introduced themselves solely by claiming the central character's story . The questioning period was not split distinctly among the panelists, and Anderson and Bowman occasionally participated in the questioning . Once in each episode, the two impostors from a round participated in "Before You Go," a second round in which one was the central character and the other was again an impostor . Many episodes ended with a stunt performed by one of the central characters . The panelists received one point for correctly identifying central characters, except in the final round, for which two points were awarded . While no mention was made of financial compensation for the impostors or the central characters, the losing panelist (in the event of a tie, Bowman chooses the loser) was subjected to "Tweet a Lie," in which the host would post a tweet to that panelist's Twitter account that was not permitted to be deleted for the next 24 hours . Starting with the September 11, 2017 episode, the number of points was multiplied by ten and doubled in the final round, and the losing panelist was the subject of a "Fake News" story read by Anderson . Also starting with this episode, Anderson took over announcing duties and the set was given some updates . </P>
