Time Will Tell (TV series)

Time Will Tell is an early American game show which aired on the now-defunct DuMont Television Network from August 27 to October 15, 1954. The show's host, Ernie Kovacs, would go on to host other shows on both DuMont and NBC.^[1]

Game play involved three contestants answering questions in 90-second rounds, timed with a large hourglass.^[2]

The program, produced and distributed by the network, aired on most DuMont affiliates on Fridays at 10:30 pm Eastern Time, replacing Gamble on Love which was also hosted by Kovacs in the same time slot. After Time Will Tell ended, DuMont replaced the series with local (non-network) programming.
