Gameplay

A three-celebrity panel, each playing for a member of the audience, tried to predict how other celebrities responded to questions asked in pre-recorded interviews for points.

In the first two rounds, the panelists were given three possible responses for each question and after they chose, the correct answer was shown. In the final round, each panelist guessed how an example of people responded to questions related to the celebrity.

The panelist with the most points at the end of the game won $100 and a vacation for his/her audience partner.

Music

The show's original theme was composed by Herb Alpert, while the second was composed by Bob Colbert. The second theme was later used for Stewart's Three on a Match.

Episode status

The series is believed to be wiped, as per network practices of the era, with only two episodes known to exist – #437 (March 4, 1969) and #542 (July 29, 1969). GSN has aired the latter several times, although it also circulates among private collectors as a studio master with production slate.
