Who Do You Trust? (originally titled Do You Trust Your Wife? until July 1958) is an American television game show.

Under the title Do You Trust Your Wife?, the show premiered in prime time on CBS in January 1956 and was hosted by Edgar Bergen. The show lasted in this form until March 1957. In September of that year, the show (while keeping the title Do You Trust Your Wife?) was revamped as a daytime program, and Johnny Carson was installed as host. This version aired from September 30, 1957 to November 15, 1957, at 4:30 pm Eastern on ABC, and from November 18, 1957 to December 27, 1963 at 3:30 pm Eastern.

The title was changed to Who Do You Trust? on July 14, 1958.[1]

Carson was host for five years, until he left to take over The Tonight Show in September 1962. He was replaced by Woody Woodbury as host for the show's final 16 months.
