CANDID CAMERA
August 11, 2014  | By David Bianculli

TV Land, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

SERIES RETURN: Peter Funt, son of original Candid Camera host Allen Funt, co-hosts this latest revival series with Mayim Bialik of The Big Bang Theory, bringing back a TV show so old, it predates television. (It began on radio as Candid Microphone in 1947, and became TV’s Candid Camera a year later.) And those viewers old enough to remember some of this show’s original good-natured pranks will recognize one of them tonight, as Megan Hilty from Smash recreates the old hidden-camera classic about bringing her car in for repairs because there’s something wrong with the engine – an engine the mechanics can’t find.
