Doe-knob game show clip?

So I’ve heard about this game show moment where a white celebrity was giving a clue for deer to his black partner so he said doe and the black person guesses knob. I’ve looked all over the Internet and got different versions. Some say its from password others say pyramid. Some say the celeb is Tom selleck others say it was Jamie Farr. Does anyone know if its true or if the footage still exists?

Searching ‘doe knob’ goes to $25,000 Pyramid, and it offers a show with LaVar Burton.However, the doe knob clue wasn’t there. There must be some truth to it or it wouldn’t be listed in a search engine.... Show More
I find it amazing how many different "first hand experiences" there are.I personally saw it in a clip show of funniest gameshow moments. It was a series of about 6 shows, hosted by a famous gameshow host whose name I didn t know (because I never watched any of the shows he hosted). I think the clip in question was in the second or third episode, but I can t remember now, as it s been about 2 decades since they aired it. I don t remember what specifically they called the miniseries either. I m pretty sure it was one of the Pyramid shows.I do recall, however, that it was Tom Selleck, that his partner was a black woman, and that the announcer said that Selleck was sued by this woman for laughing at her.I had watched this show about half a year before seeing the listing about it on Snopes and I gave them all the above information and more (including the show s name, the host s name, and the episode number) so they could look it up for themselves, because it was fresh in my mind then. They never retracted their claim of false. Today, out of the blue, after having now seen dozens of false reporting accusations against Snopes, I decided to try looking up this one clip, and to my surprise I see so many posts about this with conflicting "first hand" reports. Really, Dems? Is this clip THAT embarrassing to you that you have to delete and obscure the truth that a woman misheard what Tom Selleck said, embarrassed herself, and then sued him?... Show More
The celebrity was Tom selleck. And it was on the $10,000 pyramid. When the lady answered with a long drawn " knobbbbb", Tom put his head on the rail. Never saying another word , only laughing pressing his face against the padding on the rail. Never regaining composure and allowing the time to expire.I saw the original episode and have never seen it again. I m sure the lawyers have made certain that episode will never make it on the air again.... Show More
It was definitely McLean Stevenson on Password. I distinctly remember laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes. I believe Mr. Stevenson literally fell out of his chair laughing.... Show More
I’m almost 100% it was Mclean Stevenson (MASH) with Allen Ludden as host.... Show More
