Anthony Anderson-hosted ABC's beloved game show 'To Tell the Truth' is soon to debut its fifth season. The game show - a part of ABC's annual Summer Fun and Games slate - that pits celebrities against each other in a hilarious game of deceit and wit is making its return to the small screen and maybe it will offer a few minutes of respite in these trying times. 

Here is everything you need to know about the show's return later this month. 

Release date

'To Tell the Truth' will be premiering on Thursday, May 21, 2020, on ABC.

Plot

'To Tell the Truth' "puts a panel of celebrities on the spot as they're forced to figure out which contestants are lying and who's telling the truth."

"We could all use a good laugh right about now, so why not start by watching celebrities compete against each other and guess who's telling the truth while my Mama Doris uses her expert lie-detecting skills to show them how it's done!" Anderson had said

"So grab your family, your significant other, your roommates, your pet - whoever you're staying safe with, I'll grab my Mama for family game night, and we can all try to sniff out the imposters on 'To Tell the Truth'."
