Truth or Consequences............a radio program that moved to  Television   
and also got a town named after it,  Truth or  Consequences,  New Mexico.
 
"this is Your Life"  a very interesting program if your were  interested in 
the celebrity that was picked.
 
Probably one of the most imitated programs in later TV programs.  Sid  Ceaser 
and Howie Morris,  Benny Hill's program  and I believe Monty  Pyton group 
also did a paradoy on This is your Life.
