| Description | The Fox network's publicity packet for the reality-quiz show The Moment of Truth promised to expose the "Deep, Dark Secrets" of its contestants. Hosted by Mark Walberg (Temptation Island, the weekly, hour-long series was based on Nothing But the Truth, one of the most successful TV programs in Colombia. In the American version, the contestants submitted to a polygraph test before appearing before a studio audience, where they were then asked 21 tough questions based on the results of 50 responses given during the aforementioned test. With each answer, a computerized voice was heard to declare "True" or "False", with escalating cash prizes (up to $500,000) offered for each true answer. In no way were the contestants "ambushed": they knew what the questions would be ahead of time, and they were given the option to change their answer before appearing on-camea, or not to answer at all. Even so, the series stirred up a storm of controversy when on one episode, a married woman admitted to having an extramarital affair--thereby destroying her marriage before an audience of millions. The Moment of Truth first aired January 23, 2008 ... and that's the truth. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide |
