- October 14, 2021
Anthony Anderson, famous for his role in the hit TV show Black-ish, is back on Rachael Ray's show for the second time in season 17 episode 24. This time, he brought his mom, Doris, along as the pair promotes their new prank show.
The episode opens with Rachael Ray welcoming Anthony back onto her show with open arms. Anthony, looking sharp in a vibrant blue suit, quickly gets down to business by calling for his mother to join him on stage. Doris, equally as stylish in a multi-colored blazer, shares a warm embrace with Rachael Ray before the trio settles onto the set of Rachael's famous cooking show.
Anthony and Doris, who share a quick-witted rapport, explain to Rachael Ray that their new show is called "To Tell the Truth." According to Anthony, the show features a panel of three celebrities attempting to determine which of three contestants is telling the truth about their odd hobby or unique talent. However, Anthony is quick to add, in a sly grin, that two of the contestants are actually imposters, leaving the panelists to guess who the "real" contestant is.
As if on cue, the lights dim and a projector screen rises from the stage, revealing a clip of a hilarious prank from the first episode of "To Tell the Truth." In the clip, Anthony dons a ridiculous costume and makeup and attempts to convince unsuspecting people in a park that he has a rare medical condition. All the while, his mother is hilariously lurking in the background and providing off-camera commentary.
Rachael Ray can barely contain her laughter as the clip plays, and Anthony and Doris take turns teasing each other playfully. However, they soon get back to business and reveal that they've brought along a clip of a never-before-seen prank from their upcoming show.
The new clip shows Anthony and Doris teaming up to prank Anthony's Black-ish co-star, Tracee Ellis Ross. In the prank, Tracee is lead to believe that she will be participating in an exclusive dinner party hosted by Anthony and his mom. However, things quickly take a hilarious turn when Anthony and Doris begin to argue loudly in the kitchen, forcing poor Tracee to play mediator and attempt to diffuse the situation.
As the clip comes to an end, Rachael Ray can hardly contain her excitement and begs Anthony and Doris to reveal more about their new show. The pair tease that they have many more hilarious pranks up their sleeve and promise that the show will be filled with side-splitting moments.
Rachael Ray, not one to be left behind on the fun, jokes that she wants in on the prank action. Anthony and Doris are more than happy to oblige and offer up a few suggestions for how Rachael can get in on the fun with her own family and friends.
As the episode draws to a close, Anthony and Doris provide one last hilarious moment when they surprise their audience with a quick rendition of "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." The duo's infectious energy and laughter is sure to leave viewers eagerly anticipating their new show.
